In this blog post, I reviewed Carol Ericson’s Dockside Danger, the third installment in The Lost Girls romantic suspense series, This caper had plenty of heat, romantic suspense, and twists and turns. For LAPD Detective Jane Falco, it all started for her when she landed a complicated domestic case. She had recently been given a hard time at the LAPD, since everyone knew about how she goes through her partners. And she hoped her partner, Damon Carter, would work out for her. But at the crime scene, she’s reunited with her former flame, FBI Agent Tim Ruskin. Tim couldn’t believe his luck when he ran into Jane after she formerly had known him as his undercover name as Terry Rush in a previous case. Together, they work on a case to locate missing and trafficked Russian women and investigate the Bratva connection. Though the heat was on, and the chemistry between them was cranked up a notch, someone wanted to do more than rattle Jane’s cage. In the end, they took down the bad guys in a fierce battle of life-and-death.
This scintillating romantic suspense has a compelling fast-paced plot. I cared for Jane, who had more than her fair share at work and in romance. I also cared for Tim, who wanted to find Lana and bring her home safely. The scenic settings for Los Angeles were idealistic and picturesque for the location. The dual themes of the story is give love a second chance, while greed could lead you to danger.
I rated this sexy romantic suspense novel, four of five stars, for no reason. If you love heated romantic suspense novels with non-stop dramatic action, and plenty of sizzling, heart-pounding suspense, Dockside Danger is one to read this year. This book is recommended for fans of Karen Rose, Lisa Jackson, and Lisa Gardner.
