BIG CITY CRIME. SMALL TOWN HEROES
An epic finale.
Detective Samantha Jesse is determined to hold on to what she has. Whenever she gets too happy, life corrects that mistake and takes the joy from her. Her new partner, Detective Romeo Alvarez, was there the day of the biggest correction, but despite his assertions, that doesn’t mean they’re forever connected. Unless her worst fears come true and he changes his ways because he fell in love at first sight with her sister, Bristol. As if Samantha needs that complication in her quiet life.
A love rekindled.
Fire Department Captain Julio Espinoza-Vasquez has never let go of the love of his life. Raised by deaf parents, he sees the world in ways no one else around him ever will. And he’ll put it all on the line to protect his colleagues—the family that the department has given him. When a spate of suspicious fires and one death make it clear something is happening in Benson, Julio lands on an inter-department task force. Working with Samantha is his one shot at getting her back.
As the hunt for the arsonist turns to targeted attacks, Julio puts it all on the line to save Samantha while she investigates these deadly crimes. Only together can they uncover the culprit.
But not before Benson becomes an inferno.
Each Benson First Responders book is a stand-alone Christian Romantic Suspense.

About the Author
My Thoughts:Wow, this was a heart tugging, on the edge of your seat, emotional read. First off, you have a serial arsonist who enjoys upping his game and burning down buildings. Not only that, but he likes to have casualties as well. He was a very sick and dangerous person and time is running out for this special team to find him before anyone else gets killed. However, their lives are now in danger as well.
So, some parts of this book are full of danger and suspense, and the others emotional heartbreak, healing, and forgiveness. When I first started this story, I was not aware of any of that was in here. Detective Samantha Jesse and Fire Department Captain Julio Espinoza-Vasquez have quite a history together. Having known each other as kids, and then romantically later. Their breakup, as it is revealed was truly sad. Now they are working together, after two years apart, to stop this evil. Their story was powerful to me as they both sought forgiveness and reconciliation with the One who heals all hearts. This was suspenseful and an uplifting read. I am going to check out the rest of the series.
I was provided a copy of this novel from the author. I was not required to post a positive review, and all views and opinions are my own.
