From Goodreads: A former gun for hire and a federal agent find themselves on the right side of love but the wrong end of a bullet in this Richter installment from New York Times bestselling author Catherine Bybee.
On a fateful night in Las Vegas, FBI agent Leo Grant is working on a critical detail in a high-profile child prostitution trial when a beautiful woman jumps into the path of a bullet meant for him. Little does Leo know that the woman is Olivia, an ex-assassin who is seeking redemption one good deed at a time.
One minute, Olivia is lunging in front of Leo on the Vegas Strip. The next, she’s waking up in the hospital in a haze of pain with no memory of her past, her enemies, or even her own name.
With Olivia suffering from memory loss and completely unaware of the danger she is in, it’s up to Leo and Neil MacBain’s team of operatives to keep her safe. With Olivia and Leo both unaware of her past crimes, the two have little reason to avoid their growing attraction. Slowly her past seeps in through the cracks as she struggles to find the answers of who she is. When the veil is lifted and her dark past is staring her down, Olivia must turn her back on Leo and the love she can never allow herself to have, and race to find her would-be killer.
My Thoughts…
Olivia is fun. Maybe that is not the word that most would
use to describe her, but I thought she was a fun character. She kept me guessing at what her life would
be and when it would happen. She starts
with not remembering anything about her life, she would realize that she knew
things but was never really sure how she knew them. Leo was the only person who did not know of
her history, and he was “her person” as she worked towards remembering them. As the attraction between them grows and
her past life comes to life, I was excited to see it all play out.
I have
enjoyed this series and seeing how the Richter Academy plays a role in the
characters. The strength of the women
and the lives that they are living are so much fun to read about. The Richter Series is a spin off of another
of Catherine Bybee’s series, The First Wives Series, but those books do not
have to be read to enjoy this series. I
do feel like The Richter Series is best read in order as some of the events in
the first book do add to what is happening in the second book. It is fun to get to the know the characters
as they evolve through the series.
