Heather Graham's Krewe of Hunters series is one of my favorites, so trying one of her standalone novels was an easy decision. The setting of this novel, a family owned Irish pub, totally appealed to me as did the family themselves. Kieran is the only girl in a family four children. She helps her brothers run the pub at night and works as a psychologist during the day. When her youngest brother makes a huge mistake while trying to do a good dead, Kieran tries to fix things and ends up in the middle of Craig's robbery/murder investigation...not to mention a reluctant local hero. Kieran and Craig are attracted to each other right of, but Kieran's guilt over covering for her brother makes Craig suspicious. He doesn't let that keep him from pursing her or protecting her. With her face all over the news, someone is afraid she knows something she shouldn't. Her life is in danger, and Craig and her brothers hover like overprotective umbrellas. As things heart up between Kieran and Craig, she doesn't mind his hovering quite so much. She just wishes she could be honest with him about her part in the problems but fears once he finds out he won't want her anymore. If she's not careful, she may not live long enough to tell him anyway.
This story had plenty of tension, great atmosphere, fun characters, hot chemistry and (my favorite) suspense with plenty of twists and turns.
Thanks to Net Galley for the ARC to review.
