We're back in the Fairview Station series for this third book set there. This time it's little sister Dylan's turn to try to find romance. She's living out back in the carriage house and is an ER doctor at the hospital. She also has a 'no relationships with cops ever' rule.
Finley is an officer and she and Dylan do not get off to the best start when Dylan finds her in a compromising position with a nurse. They clash, a lot, but, then they also start getting closer, seeing beneath each others exteriors. Still, there is tons of tension throughout this book.
To be honest, I really didn't think that I would like Finley, ever, in this book, and yet, she did actually grow on me quite a bit by the end of the book. There was also a really depressing and intriguing subplot with the young girl from the last book, Shea, that kept me turning the pages too.
The only thing that drove me a little crazy was Dylan's voice in parts of the story. Since she's a Doctor, and apparently not a Resident, I can probably pretty accurately guess her age range, but, on occasion she seemed (with the speech patterns, mannerisms, etc.) so, so, much younger than I think the author wanted her to be seen as. It was disconcerting and pulled me out of the story on occasion.

Even is the CO of a team of Marshals who track fugitives around the world. Frankie is a long time undercover DEA agent with a complicated past and the want to maybe get out of the undercover world. She takes a liaison post (since she knows the targets) on Evan's team and there are sparks (of all kinds) from the very beginning.
They both have secrets and those secrets pop up often both during the journey of their relationship and during the case.
It was a fun romance and definitely a bit of a thriller. I literally never quite knew what in the world Frankie was going to do, and the character of Evan has to be one of the biggest hypocrites I've ever read about in a novel.

This is mostly a book about self-body-image issues and the importance of a loving partner and gentle handling is to be able to move beyond negative body image. Overlaid on this very important message are complicated storylines involving child protection and adoption services, privatisation and profiteering, a troubled child and a model-figured Other Woman.
