DESCRIPTION

Being an immortal rogue enforcer is never easy. But when human bones are found buried in a residential garden—and they happen to be discovered by your life mate—things get even more complicated in this latest installment of New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands’s wickedly alluring Argeneau vampire series.

Crispinus Delacort is an immortal rogue enforcer and a homicide detective. But in his quiet city, he’s more likely to be rounding up truant teens than investigating murders. So, when he learns that human bones have been found in the garden of a sprawling rural home, it’s unexpected to say the least.

Abril Newman can’t believe her bad luck when she discovers a body buried on the grounds of her boss’s home, while chasing after Gina’s mischievous lab Lilith. She was just supposed to be house-sitting for a few days! And then Detective Delacort arrives. She knows she shouldn’t be thinking about love when there’s a crime scene outside the door. But ignoring her attraction to gorgeous Crispin is easier said than done.

When Crispin realizes that a rogue is involved, he knows this won’t be a simple investigation. Especially because he’s so distracted by Abril’s presence that all he wants is to kiss her senseless in every room of the manor. But he can woo her, solve the case, and stop a dangerous rogue by morning…right? All in a day’s work.

REVIEW

Abril Newman is in a conundrum when she is at her boss’s house taking care of her dog, managing a remodel, and human bones are discovered by said dog, Lilith. I adored Lilith’s doggy antics because Lab’s are just so adorable, playful, and smart. Lilith kept the story interesting and fun. Abril is professionally driven and good at her job which includes managing a not so nice boss. Abril character is intelligent, no nonsense, and quick thinking which keeps this storyline fresh and interesting.

Crispin and Roberts are immortal rogue enforcers, and the detectives called in to help. They quickly discover there are lots of bodies in the construction pit. Crispin is shocked when he discovers Abril is his life mate and he begins to act like a guy having his first love and fumbling around. It is heartwarming how he tried to get to know her and not overwhelm her.

Quite a few immortals show up in this story from previous books and it felt like a homecoming of all the hot, sexy men and women who have become a tightly knit family. My all-time favorite is Lucian who still makes me swoon.

The ending had a twist I did not see coming but it was amazing. Readers will enjoy this book, and I give it 5 STARS.
