ARC provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I wasn't able to read Trapped in time to give a review.
This started out intriguing but that soon wore off sadly. This book just goes through the motions, no real depth to the story and just left me feeling no emotion for the whole thing. Sad really, could have been a real page turner.
I was very intrigued by the description of this book but sadly, I didn’t get to finish it. As interesting as it was, I just couldn’t get myself to read the rest of the story. I got about halfway through before I decided to read something else. Would I read it again and give the whole thing another try? Maybe! But the book didn’t leave a lasting enough impression that I actually wanted to finish it.
Something bad happened and Cash was involved! But he can’t remember, and the people there to help him don’t seem to be doing much good. If only he could remember. Sophie is there to help with that memory, or is she. When she tells him she’s there to help him escape. His thought is escape from were?
I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own
Cash Baker is having a problem with his memory. Stuck in a bunker he has multiple flashes of missions going off in his head. Plus, someone telling him that they are in the Philippines underground because of the bird flu. Now enter Sophia Rhodes who is working for a security firm that is working on rescuing him. He remembers her but always felt less than, never smart enough.
Working at what is real and what is not when the time is right, he does make a break for it and it ends up being just Cash and Rhodes. While they are trying to survive, they are also working on their past. The story has plenty of action and you keep wondering who is the person that started everything. As they make their way back you are hoping that there is a future for the two of them together. This was a good book. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 4 stars. Follow us at

Army Ranger, Cash Baker, has a problem. Well, several really. First, he seems to be trapped in a bunker. Second, he's got some pretty substantial injuries. Third, and most importantly, he has no idea how he got them or how he got there.. His memory of his past is gone, and all he's really able to recall tells him that whatever landed him in this position was really, really bad.
Enter psychologist and blast from Cash's past, Dr. Sophia Rhodes. She claims Cash is in danger. That she's been sent to rescue him. That she's working with an outfit known as Decorah Security to help him uncover the truth.
The question is: Can he trust her? And more can he trust himself around her?

I've enjoyed Ms. York's writing before, so when the opportunity arose for me to read this I jumped on it. It's a light, fun Romantic Suspense novel with a few interesting twists and turns. It's not really paranormal romance like some of the other books in this series, but there are some paranormal elements to this particularly later on.
Cash is a pretty alpha male character, but he's not a full alpha a-hole. Thank goodness. He does listen to Sophia and others and knows when he's out of his depth. I liked Sophia. She was a good character who wasn't TSTL and provided very solid advice and adapted well to a situation which was way outside of her depth.
While the book can stand on its own, it would likely be more enjoyable if you read several previous books in the series. Lots of characters show up from those books and it can be a little confusing if this is where you're jumping in.
Ultimately I liked this book, but I didn't love it.
Four stars.
Boy who met and loved girl in school finds her again in unusual circumstances. A cross between a love story and a military conspiracy story. This works in a lot of ways but not in others it started at a slower pace designed to build the conspiracy angle, moves to a love story with a bit of danger built in and then the ending seemed rushed and a bit unsatisfying. I wanted to know more about the mysterious agency and it is obvious that this is part of a series as does not have the kind of ending that concludes the story. Not having read any of the others in the series and not being given enough about the security agency this series is about in this book unfortunately does not pull me in enough to want to read more.
I like this author but I did not like I kinda got into this one really late in the game as far as the series went. Cash and Sophia give us this one with it being filled with alot of exhilarating action coupled with chemistry. Cash does have to find answers especially because of his situation. She will be his life line sorta speak but we are gonna stay right with Cash every step of the way. At times it was a bit hairy with the both of us on the edge. This is one that will suck you in and keep you maybe not letting go.
Cash awakens and can't recall where he is, who he's fighting for or even which side he is on! His poor memory has more holes than Swiss cheese!
Enter Sophia. She and Cash have a bit of history and it's up to her to try and fill in the gaps in his memories. It's been a long time since High School. Why is she here, wherever here is? Is she there to help him or cement a lie?
Another corker of a book in the long-running Decorah series. Littles dollops of PNR set in a strong Romantic Suspense storyline.
If you want a book that has you constantly guessing peoples motives and wondering what the true story is then grab this book! It had me turning pages to discover why Cash was where he was, how Sophia came to help him and what the motives of the enemy were. This book had everything I like in a romantic suspense novel - great relationship and tons of danger coming from multiple directions.
Cash wakes up in a bunker and knows his memories are missing and distorted. He’s not sure why he is where he is and how he got there. Sophia knew Cash years ago and has been called on to help rescue him. He’s not sure he can trust Sophia, but she’s his best bet to help discover his missing memories.
This is another fast paced fun read in the Decorah Security series and like all the rest it is intriguing and has you turning the pages as fast as you can

Will love bloom between them again and this time will they get a future You will have to read to see
This book was everything I'd hoped for and come to expect from this author. Although it started out kind of slow for me it quickly sucked me in. I was thrilled to spend a quiet afternoon relaxing with this book.
Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Cash is experiencing memories that he is not sure of. Psychologist Sophia will try anything to help Cash This book kept me guessing
