Fallout oleh Alex Croft

Detective Juliette Foret knows all about loss and having to start over. Her body bears the scars that come with a career dedicated to service of her community—and invisible wounds that haunt her dreams. Her new life in Georgia was supposed to be easy, to allow her time to heal, until her path crosses with that of a sadistic killer targeting the loved ones of the only infuriatingly irresistible man who has made her lose control. Prominent hotelier and Savannah's foremost eligible bachelor, Liam Lawrence Ward, will do almost anything to protect his family, including enduring the wrath of the enigmatic detective. His clandestine investigation into those believed to be responsible for stalking his future sister-in-law and setting fire to a building at the Savannah Sun Hotel and Resort lands him in hot water when bullets start to fly. FBI Senior Special Agent Maddison Stone has a personal stake in safeguarding her longtime friend—and former boyfriend—Liam. When his life is endangered, she makes it her business to step in and forms a joint task force to investigate the criminal gang deemed liable. Her uneasy alliance with Detective Foret, and the private security consultant hired to protect the Lawrence Wards, significantly complicates matters. Focused on planning her wedding to Emerson Lawrence Ward, celebrity Master Chef Simone Boudreaux had hoped that a Canadian jail would be the final stop for her abusive ex-husband. The last thing she expects is to be confronted by individuals from a past that she would rather forget. When danger lurks its ugly head, Simone is forced to grin and deal with it or risk everything and everyone she has come to care about. Fallout is the third book in the Savannah Sizzle series. The heroic characters are forced to face past demons and clash with powerfully connected foes or simply perish.
