REVIEW POSTED ONLINE: APR 15, 2025
Nash has battled with depression since he was shot in the line of duty and almost died until Lina, the mysterious insurance investigator, moves in next door and sheds a little light in his life. They can't fight the attraction they feel but they both have a lot of baggage holding them back from giving each other a real shot at a future together.

REVIEW
What I Liked:I thought the bar seen during "shark week" was hilarious and maybe even funnier since I was able to relate all too well in the moment. I liked that the main characters went through multiple ups and downs where they learned about themselves and each other. It made it feel like they really earned the HEA in the end.
What I Didn't Really Like:The story starts on a bit of a downer as Nash is struggling with his mental health. I enjoyed the later parts more where there was plenty of humor thrown in, but understand how it supported Nash's character arc.
Overall:You have to check out the Knockemout series if you enjoy romantic suspense. I wouldn't advise waiting too long between reading the books in the series. It had been a while since I read the first book and I have a feeling I didn't pick up all the references to the earlier book.
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)
Heat Index: 🔥🔥🔥🔥 (4/5)
