I love this author's military heroes and although a departure from her usual genres, I completely fell in love with her version of a murder mystery! This might not be your typical protector romance/romantic suspense or murder mystery but it's a damn good mash-up! Sebastian is heading home to Louisiana, determined to finally get some answers from his grandfather. There is a hurricane inbound so the flight he hoped to catch has been grounded and he's now travelling overland. What he finds is a drunk off his face relative and a drowned rat of a renter. Gianna has taken pity on Armand and comes to the house to remind him to eat. But when Sebastian realises her cottage isn't safe for her during the storm he makes her move in with them to the main house. But Sebastian is unaware that that proposal actually gives Gianna what she wants - a chance to snoop and find out what happened to her mum. There are some great secondary characters including Jada and Gideon. The mystery plotline intertwines nicely with the romance and I highly enjoyed it. There are enough twists and turns but not so many that you forget which way the plot is going now. And the chemistry between Gianna and Sebastian is scorching hot!
