COLD CASE INVESTIGATION by Nicole Helm is the 3rd book in Harlequin Intrigue’s Hudson Sibling Solutions series, and it packs a punch. A family business involving solving cold cases puts Anna Hudson in the crosshairs of a man seeking revenge for a past investigation.

Twenty-five-year-old Anna Hudson works as a private investigator in Sunrise, Wyoming. She has five older siblings and lives on the Hudson Ranch with her family. Anna’s parents disappeared when she was eight, leaving the Hudson siblings to run the ranch and carve a life out for themselves. Anna has always been overprotected, but now she is pregnant and determined to stand on her own. While out on a case in another town, someone tries to knock her out and burn down her hotel room. Fire investigator Hawk Steele arrives at the hospital and finds Anna, the woman he shared a one-night stand with, injured and pregnant. Hawk soon learns the child is his, and he and Anna have a lot to talk about. When another fire is set close to Anna, it is clear she is the target, and Hawk must protect her and their plans for the future before a vengeful killer burns it all down.

COLD CASE INVESTIGATION is Anna’s story and starts with a slow build as the stage is set for Anna's and Hawk’s developing relationship. Anna is a feisty character, and she keeps Hawk on his toes. Their bantering, sexual chemistry and the evolution of their feelings are authentic and believable. The action picks up in the latter half of the novel as a killer closes in and characters from the Hudson family’s past come into play. There are some harrowing situations, and the tension builds as someone infiltrates the Hudson Ranch and moves in on their target. Filled with mystery, family, fires, a feisty heroine, and the unsolved case of the Hudson parent’s disappearance, COLD CASE INVESTIGATION will leave readers thoroughly entertained and looking forward to the next installment in the series.
