Romantic Suspense by Kelly Irvin Set in Southwest


Over the Line by Kelly Irvin

Gabriella is an assistant prosecutor turned chef who has some past mistakes she is trying to leave in the past—mainly her ex-fiancĂ©, Eli, a cop.  When her brother, an agent with ATF, disappears, she and her sister jump in and try to find him.  Eli, who still loves Gabby, won’t let her fight this battle alone, because even though she can’t forgive him, he still loves her.

This book has many twists and turns.  The plot development and the author’s development of the characters keep the reader engaged.

The characters are likeable, very human, and interesting but struggling with forgiveness and starting over.  I especially liked Natalie and Deacon’s relationship.

The author addresses wider themes of immigration and the problems of drug cartels and drug-running along the border between Mexico and the United States. She presents the question of how to solve these problems, but gives no obvious solutions.

I enjoyed this book and received a complimentary copy.  Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
