Fall to Pieces by Becky Flade
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I was gripped from start to finish by this exciting and engaging romantic suspense novel. The main characters were well developed and realistic and the chemistry between the two of them came across in the writing. Homicide Detective Alexandra Danvers and her partner Detective Xavier Knight are determined to bring Arthur Book, a known child murderer to justice. However, Xavier is actually a police corruption specialist who is undercover as Lexi’s partner, but is really evaluating her fitness for duty. As the investigation into the child killer continues Xavier is worried that if he concentrates on his actual mission, then it could have serious consequences for the murder case, allowing Book to walk free. Things become more complicated for the pair as the more time they spend together on their covert investigation into Book’s, they can no longer ignore their growing feelings for one another. The pair become in danger of not only loosing their careers but also their lives as the case continues. The storyline flows well and I felt immersed in the investigation due to the descriptive narrative. I was kept hooked by the plot twists and stayed up late to finish the book as it was hard to put down. This was an enjoyable read which I would recommend.
