For over a year, Bell has been on her own running from a killer. She can’t afford to stay in one place long or get attached to anyone. But when a muscular man with a lot of ink steps in to help her, she finds herself letting down her walls for the hottest night of her life. She never expects to see him again but when she ends up at Hard Burn desperate to learn to fight, she finds herself looking into the eyes of Beau again.
Like the previous books in this series, this book was another fast paced, emotional and action packed story. Bell has been on the run trying to avoid a serial killer. No matter where she goes though he keeps finding her and that path eventually leads to New Orleans. I really loved Bell. She may be on the run but she is determined to learn to fight and stop her killer. She was just a strong, capable, and sweet woman who is determined to get her life back.
Beau is a protective alpha male who is instantly attracted to Bell. While he is determined to help Bell, he does respect her boundaries and doesn’t push for more information right away. Beau was a protective man who understood Bell’s need to take care of herself and so he trains her to fight and helps set up a plan to capture her killer. I really like Beau but I did get a little bit tired of hearing his lame reasons for trying to not make their relationship permanent.
The hunt for a killer in this was interesting and action packed. They deal with multiple attacks but in the end finally catch the killer. I really loved that we see Bell being the main person trying to capture the killer and that she puts all her new training to use. I hate when the heroine is training to defend herself but doesn’t use it when it’s needed.
Overall, this was a great ending for the Fury Brothers series and another great couple. I quite enjoyed these brothers and their ladies. Also I liked the brief cameo we get of Zane and Monroe (Stealing from Mr. Rich).
