Destiny Richardson's younger sister, Paula, sent her a
despondent text message. When Destiny couldn't reach her,
she went to Paula's apartment and made a gruesome
discovery.
Paula was lying in the bathtub with slashed wrists.
Destiny
knows that Paula was not the type to commit suicide but she
will have to convince the the police.
Detective Logan Cavelli, now Cavanaugh, was just about to
leave for a hot date when he gets the call to go to the
scene of an apparent suicide. Logan meets Destiny at the
scene. She is adamant that Paula would never have done
this. While intrigued by the beautiful young woman, he
doesn't realize that she works under his father in the lab.
When Sean, the head of the lab for Aurora Police Deparment,
declares it a murder, Logan and Destiny will have to work
together closely. Even though Destiny shouldn't be
involved
in the investigation, several detectives are out with the
flu and if they are going to make progress, every body will
be needed.
While I enjoyed CAVANAUGH'S SURRENDER because Ms.
Ferrarella does
a great job with continuity books with a fairly even
quality
in all of the stories, I felt like the relationship between
Logan and Destiny was rushed. Their relationship could have
used more development. Since so much of their time was
spent on identifying the murderer, their love for each
seemed too new for them to make the commitment that was
implied in the storyline.
Crime scene investigator Destiny Richardson receives the
shock of her life when she finds her sister dead in a
bathtub. Detective Logan Cavanaugh thinks it's an
open-and-shut suicide case. But Destiny's convinced her
sister was murdered. And she's not about to have some
arrogant cop tell her otherwise-even if he is the sexiest
man she's ever met.
Logan knows it's pointless trying to convince Destiny that
it's against the rules to work on a relative's case. The
crime scene investigator is as stubborn as she is gorgeous.
Besides, Logan wouldn't mind getting to know her better.
When it becomes apparent that there's a serial killer on the
loose, Logan is bent on protecting the woman he's falling in
love with.
