This story features a couple slightly older than typically found in this type of novel. Ross was a never before married Texas Ranger in his early fifties. He has some silver in his hair, but he still came off totally alpha, completely confident, and undeniably sexy. Emm was fast approaching forty having never focused on a family of her own, just living vicariously through her sister and her niece. When first her niece and then her sister disappear, Emm fears they have been taken by a human trafficking ring located in Texas. A recent job assignment takes her not only to Texas, but also to Ross, surprisingly the focus of her assignment and her personal investigation. The two don't hit it off at first, but attitudes quickly change as they realize the attraction between them is strong. When Ross catches on to Emm's dangerous little side investigation and her determination to do whatever it takes to get her sister back, he has to make some tough choices in order to protect her.
As you might deduce from the description of the book, it does deal with human trafficking, so expect some violence including sexual violence. While it wasn't overly graphic, it did try to portray a realistic view of the situation. I liked the story and the more realistic happy but not quite perfect ending.
I received a copy of this book from Net Galley for review.
