Tonio Salvatore has always put his job first. As a
detective for Sugarland police department he knows his
duty
and never questions the rules he has sworn to live by
until
Angel Silva. Then the undercover cop finds himself ON THE
RUN and trying to keep the beauty and himself safe and
alive.
Angel Silva grew up on the wrong side of the tracks but is
desperate to escape that life. She wants to break free of
her dangerous brother and his gang but when she meets the
new recruit, Tonio Reyes she feels even more trapped. She
knows the sexy man isn't what he seems to be but when she
learns the truth that he is Tonio Salvatore ... a cop, she
is
forced to go ON THE RUN for her life.
Instead of taking her into custody Tonio finds himself
risking his career to keep her safe. As they spend more
time together he realizes something else. He is willing to
risk his very life to keep her free.
ON THE RUN is an amazing, fast paced, suspense-filled
read.
It starts out a little differently; giving a hint of the
ending then it goes back to five weeks earlier where we
get
to meet Tonio and Angel. I have to admit that the prologue
did take a bit of the spark out of the suspense for me,
but
it also made me wonder how he got where he was so no real
damage. Tonio and Angel's attraction is immediate with a
lot of wild and steamy moments as well as tender ones. The
bad guy is really bad and everything he deals with is dark
and gritty and I couldn't figure out how Angel, who
underneath it all is a sweetheart, could be related to
him. Author Jo Davis continues her Sugarland Blues
series
with ON THE RUN and manages to keep the action fresh, the
characters down-to-earth with the camaraderie among the
Blues team very evident and stronger than ever. Good read
Ms. Davis, keep them coming.
