A bartender's past catches up to her and she turns to her boss for help. The opening scene is rather wtf, all reasons aside. I was rather meh about him at start, and she isn't impressive either. They do become more likeable - despite his faults, he's lethal, loyal protector, and his past made him the way he is. She's tough, and doesn't make bad decisions about her safety. 

Their feelings were bubbling in the last books and it finally boils over, though there's still some dancing around. But their chemistry needed some time to get there. Their support for each other in dealing with their pasts helps to strengthen their connection and romance. No lack of steam between them! There's some good suspense, and it was nice to see the past MCs. Not a bad read - rocky start aside, there are still some good moments.
