Publisher's summary

A year after a barbaric childbirth, complete with a near-death experience and an encounter with her guardian angel, Angie Edmonds is just happy she and her son, Jake, are alive. She's finally in a good place: clean, sober, and employed as a defense attorney. But at the end of a long work day, she finds herself in a parent's worst nightmare: Jake has been kidnapped and taken across the Mexican border by a cult leader who believes the child is the "Chosen One".

Stymied by the US and Mexican legal systems, Angie is forced to ask the head of a Mexican crime syndicate for help. Much to her chagrin, she must work with Alejandro Torres, a dangerously attractive criminal and the drug lord's right-hand man. Little does she know Alejandro is an undercover federal agent, equally terrified of blowing his cover - and falling in love with her.

NARRATOR WAS GREAT AND EASY TO FOLLOW.

Intense and suspenseful!

This book pulled me in right from the beginning. Heart-stopping, sexy, suspenseful book with great twists and turns. It demands my attention and I could not stop listening more and more desperate to find out what would happen next. If you're looking for an intense, romantic thriller with a touch of paranormal, this book, I highly recommend!!

It was hard to understand at times.

The author provided me with a complimentary copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. The narration was hard to understand at times since there were a lot of Spanish words and accents used. Also, there was a bit of background noise in the recording. It was very faint but enough to distract me from the story at times. It didn't sound like it was done in a professional sound studio. The story itself was good. Although, I'm glad I chose the audiobook because I would have had trouble with all the foreign words in an ebook. The chemistry between the main characters was hot!

Romantic Suspense Revolving Around Relegious Cult

This book was definitely more than I was expecting. I had never read the author before but was pleasantly surprised by the story. Angie's baby has been kidnapped and taken into Mexico by her parents. Angie's parents are leading a over zealous religious cult. Her father has many crazy beliefs. I don't want to give away the whole story line. Think Jim Jones meets David Koresh. Angie's parents in reality are pretty sick people. Angie meets Alejandro who is a undercover American ATF agent. Alejandro is working for a female Mexican drug lord that has promised to help Angie get her baby back. Everyone thinks Angie's dad is the worst, but truly her mother is the most manipulative one, if you ask me. This book has drama, suspense, kidnapping, cults, religion, drugs, romance, brothels, and human trafficking just to name a few. This book shows what lengths a great parent will go to, to get their kid back. Angie happens to fall in love along the way too. There was a lot of obsessions in this book. Most were the wrong kind.

I received a free copy of this book and voluntarily left this review.
