The bad guys aren’t the only ones on his radar…
For Albany PD homicide detective Sean McKinley, catching killers is the easy part of his job. Working next to his beautiful partner, Sara Cain, is what’s difficult. It might have something to do with the fact that he’s fallen in love with her, though. Fortunately, she feels the same way about him. But she’s convinced they should just be friends.
If only there was some way to change her mind…
REVIEW
This is book one in the McKinley series and is very short, not much mystery more romance but it sets you up for the series.
Sean and Sarah are partners for Albany PD, and unfortunately for them they have fallen in love with each other but Sarah has decided that as long as they work together all they can be is friends, much to Sean’s dismay.
Whilst on a case Sean hears about the passing of his friend Quinn who he hasn’t seen for a few years, but discovers when attending his funeral that he has mentioned Sean in his will. What ensues results in Sean being set for life and the chance for him to be with Sarah.
This was a good little story though very short, I hope the others in the series are longer.
