3.0 out of 5 starsJust OK

This story focuses on Coral, Stacy's sister from the Black Pearl series and Liam, her long lost love. Liam abruptly ended his relationship with Coral 5 years ago with no explanation. Now their paths cross again as Coral works on a case involving the murder of one of Liam's employees.
The book chronicles the mystery of the death in Liam's company, how it ties into someone trying to kill Coral, what Liam dropped Coral 5 years ago, and how Liam fights to win back Coral's heart.
I was glad the author focused on Coral's story but I wasn't feeling the connection between Coral and Liam. They have lots of lust between them but I didn't really feel the love. Also, Coral kept changing her mind about being with Liam and in the next sentence would be having sex with him. To be honest, she was so wishy-washy about the relationship that it drove me crazy!!! Sometimes Liam's over protectiveness got on my nerves as well, and it didn't seem to fit the plot well because he knew she was an agent just like he was and could take care of herself. The mystery element of the plot worked well but I didn't think the book was very romantic, hence my only giving it 3 stars.
