Welcome to my spotlight tour of In the Deep
My thoughts
Rating: 5
Would I read recommend it? Yes
Would I read more of this series?Yes , because at this moment I need book 3.
Would I read more by this author? Yes
First off I want to say thank you to Sourcebooks Casablanca as well as to the author and NetGalley for letting me read and review it as well as letting me fall back in love with the characters of this series. ,because as soon as I saw this I knew I had to have it, because last year I read the first book Calling on Quinn and loved it and I knew that I was going to love it this one just as much. As for the characters themselves I loved Kevin ( but I still love Quinn more ) and his loyalty to his family and what he believed in, as for Danita/Dem I just couldn't like her as much as I wanted to.She felt a little stand offish at first but the more I read and saw her come to life the more I got see the real person that was Danita/Dem and not the person she played and had to be because of her job. And her interaction with her brothers also run me over because it showed she was also about family .And to me family is the most importing thing in the world. And after reading this I want to re read this as well as Calling on Quinn. What can I say that well make you want to pick this series up and give it a try ,it has romance , secrets, suspense, and twist and turns at every turn of the page.

I’ll do anything to protect what’s mine…
The last thing I needed was a call from my old precinct letting me know my knucklehead nephew had been picked up for skipping class. Still, I figured it would be an in-and-out visit. Quick. Simple. But the moment I heard her voice, I should’ve known it would be anything but easy.
I wasn’t expecting the feelings that came roaring back the moment I laid eyes on the saucy detective with the gorgeous smile, but I probably should’ve seen it coming. Our history is one for the books, and it's a page-scorcher. And now here she is, standing in my way, and I can’t seem to remember why I ever let her leave my side.
It looks like the sparks between me and Detective Danita Moralez are as intense as ever, but she’s also more guarded than before. Two years ago, she walked out of my life because she wasn’t willing to reveal the dangerous truth about her undercover work. This time, she’s not going to get away so easily.

With more than thirty contemporary romance novels and novellas under her belt, she’s now an award-winning, bestselling author. She lives with her husband on Long Island

Excerpt:
“Man, we miss having you and Quinn around here,” Stevens says beside me.
I hear him, but I’m too busy folhttp://bluesaffire.com/lowing Moralez with my eyes. She’s gorgeous. Smart and sexy. I love it.
Cal talked about her bust the entire ride here. You would think he had some part in her victory. I don’t know what I was expecting, but the woman I’m staring at isn’t it.
Her tight blue jeans hug her hips with the affection of a long-time lover. Those sexy heels on her feet have
me tilting my head to the side as I study her. Damn, the sway of her hips is perfection. I noticed earlier that she has a great pair beneath that T-shirt.
Her voice hit me in my gut from her first word. That smoky rasp is seductive in its own right. Soft, yet a bit hoarse.
Her warm, deep-brown skin is a rich espresso tone. Her eyes are the color of amber whiskey, quite the contrast to her skin. Her dark hair is pulled back in a tight bun.
I can’t help wondering what her locks look like down. Would they fall in her face as she looks at me beneath her? From the waves in the strands brushed from her face, I bet it’s wavy when it’s loose.
Her last name is Moralez, but she looks like she could be of mixed heritage. Not that I’m naive enough to think she couldn’t be fully Latinx. My trips to Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic alone have taught me better than to make that assumption. Which is why I want to get to know her better. I want to ask questions and find out all about her.
“You know that’s not going to happen, right?”
I turn to Jennings, another of the good guys around here. “You think not?” I say with a grin.
“I know not. She’s been around here for what? Two or three years. Not one guy, or girl for that matter, has been able to bag her. Forget it.”
“Just because you failed doesn’t mean I don’t have a shot.”
Stevens groans beside me. “I don’t know. I’m with Jennings on this one. You don’t stand a chance. At first, I thought it was a cop thing. You know, like she was against dating one of us. Then I thought it was a White, Black thing, but I’ve seen her turn down everyone. White, Black, Hispanic, male, female, cop, lawyer, bartender. She’s a closed case.”
“Are you assholes sure she’s single? I didn’t see a ring, but that means nothing,” I think out loud.
“I thought that too,” Jennings says. “We were partners for a little bit. Before I moved to the special unit. It’s just her and her dog. She’s single, single.”
I sit back and think on that. It’s not enough to deter me. I want her to tell me she’s not interested. From the vibe I got from her earlier, I don’t think I’m up for as big a challenge as these guys think.
“Good luck,” Stevens says.
“I got twenty that says he crashes and burns,” Jennings snorts, slapping a twenty on the table.
“What do you say, Kev? You think you can win me a twenty?” Stevens says to me.
“You should double the bet,” I say as I watch Moralez and all her sexy curves disappear into the ladies’ room.
