Malcolm is the uber undercover cop. But he has burned himself out and after some soul searching decides to buy a house. But when he moves in next door to Pippa, he finds a female scared of her own shadow and with a very big secret. Pity he also finds her delectable! West is also approached by an FBI agent with a job offer, one which he intrigued by until he realises that the job includes investigating Pippa. That perfect house listing was made just to entice him it seems! He has a gut feeling that Pippa isn't involved but there are some things he has to uncover to make him 100%. Poor Pippa! She managed to distances herself from her crazy past and a mother...well lest said soonest found out on that little matter! I loved how she tried to extend her rather hermit like existence but also traps herself within her own house, she is a bit of an enigma! She feels strangely at ease with the huge male next door, even when she does find out what he used to do for a living. The fast paced storyline sucked me into the world really quickly and I enjoyed meeting the characters. Would I have enjoyed more will-they-won't-they between Pippa and Malcolm? Sure I would but I still enjoyed the story and learning all about Pippa's childhood. Looking to enjoy more from this series soon! I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley.
