A Review by Wendy
3.5 Multiple Secrets Kept Stars
* * * 1/2
Spoiler Free
When
two people have so many secrets, is it possible to have a real,
trusting relationship. That is the main question posed and the main
thrust of the relationship between Shane Martinelli and Ivie Jordan.
Headhunter
(With Me In Seattle Mafia, #2) is the second entry to the new series by
Kristen Proby. We met all of the players in the first book and this
focuses on secrets, life-threatening secrets.
It starts with Shane and all of the family/friends realizing Ivie has been taken and is missing.
This is the woman Shane has been smitten with but has been fighting the
feelings. Shane's double life of working covert for the government and
also for the family has made him believe there is no opportunity for a
"normal love or real life". No woman should ever have to deal with the
type of life he lives.
But those thoughts go out the window when
Ivie is taken. All of the power and resources come together to find her
and protect her. Ivie's secrets are revealed and come into play,
causing a real threat to all involved.
This has all the elements
of hand-to-hand combat, the realization of life is too short, and love
matters. It was action-packed but a little Mafia Underbelly lite to me.
It works, though, and has us interested in the other characters and
their upcoming books.
A gifted copy was given in exchange for an honest review.
Kristen Proby has published more than fifty titles, many of which have hit the USA Today, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists. She continues to self publish, best known for her With Me In Seattle and Boudreaux series, The Big Sky Series, as well as others.
Kristen and her husband, John, make their home in her hometown of Whitefish, Montana with their two cats and dog.
