Force of Attraction

by D.D. Ayres

 

A seasoned K-9 officer with the police in Maryland, Cole Jamison has left her old life behind her. With a new home and a new partner—a protective canine named Hugo—Cole is ready for fresh challenges. A crucial position on an important drug task force is exactly what she wants…until she discovers her gorgeous, infuriating ex-husband will be the DEA agent in charge.

FORCE OF ATTRACTION

Agent Scott Lucca may be a pro when it comes to undercover assignments, but this job is daunting even for him. Posing as a happy couple on the dog competition circuit means he and Cole need to get a lot closer than they’ve been in years. Playing a live-in couple should seem like a walk in the park compared to tracking a brutal criminal, but suddenly nothing could be more dangerous than the passionate fire they’ve rekindled…

 

 

The romance in this book was amazing!  I don't usually like to read books where the MC's have a past because I've always thought that it gives the reader less time to get to know the characters individually.  That wasn't the case here.  The characterization was very strong and you could almost feel the tension between Scott and Cole.  I really loved them together.

 

I was a little disappointed that we didn't get to know the K-9s more, but with all that was going on there probably wasn't time to devote page after page to them.  Still, there was enough that I got a sense of their personalities.

 

You can't say D.D Ayres doesn't do her homework.  There was so much info about K-9s and their training, plus undercover operations, that everything felt very real and seamless.  Very well-done.

 

I'd highly recommend this book to fans of romantic suspense and to animal lovers.
