Ex-FBI agent Connor McCloud can never forget the day he was set up to die at the hands of trusted friend and fellow agent Ed Riggs. Hard justice and loyalty to his badge have cost Connor what he wants most--Ed's shy, studious daughter, Erin. He can never have her now, but her beauty still haunts and torments his every waking hour and his most fevered erotic dreeams. But now that his old enemy, Kurt Novak has returned, Connor is prepared to do anything to protect the vulnerable young woman from a killer who has vowed a brutal payback . . . a killer with a predator's lethal patience.
Erin has been harboring secret fantasies about Connor McCloud since she first laid eyes on him--but that was before his testimony sent her father to jail. Her world is falling apart and it's all she can do to hold her family together. But now Connor is knocking on her door, telling her she needs his protection, whether she wants it or not. He won't give up and he won't stay away. He's sworn to guard her life with his own and his fierce protectiveness awakens long-buried feelings--and a fiery sexuality deep within her soul

good story

Great characters especially Connor and his brothers. Lots of steamy scenes too if you like that but the plot is good enough without them too. Story follows an ExFBI agent and the daughter of a guy he put in prison (makes it hard for them to get together for awhile even though both are interested). A very rich psychopath is after both of them and doesn't worry about destroying their families either.

Conner and Erin were amazing together. No normal Prince Charming in here...just raw, real emotions. The chemistry between those two...I thought my fingers were gonna catch on fire just holding the book.

Great exciting read. Lots of twists and turns. She is great at weaving a story in a story so there are different levels of tension. Lots of steamy stuff too. Sometimes it did get abit redundant.

McCloud Brothers Book 2-Connor McCloud was introduced in BEHIND CLOSED DOORS. He is an ex-FBI agent that put his corrupt boss behind bars. Erin Riggs is the daughter of that boss. Connor has had a secrett fantasy about Erin since she was 17. Erin and her family are reeling from the blow to their lives. Enter the psychopath that created the whole mess. Novack has escaped from prison and is determined to destroy Connor and Erin. Their relationship is gritty, raw and very sexy. Graphic emotions and some harsh sex. Not for the faint of heart. 3.75 stars

The story line in this book was better than Behind Close Doors. Connor McCloud and his brothers were in Behind Close Doors and participated in taking down Ed Riggs in that book. Connor is an ex-FBI agent who has had a long crush on Ed Riggs daughter, Erin. Connor believe Erin is in danger and goes to find her to protect her. She doesn't believe any one is out to hurt her and neither does Connor's brothers & his friend. Yet, Connor continues to believe he needs to protect Erin. Erin has also had a secret crush on Connor and that makes this story interesting.
