I must firstly apologise for the amount of time it has taken me to provide a review of this book, my health was rather bad for quite some time, something that had me in hospital on numerous occasions and simply didnt leave me with the time I once had to do what I love most.

Unfortunately that does mean I have missed the archive date for many of these books, so It would feel unjust throwing any review together without being able to pay attention to each novel properly.

However, I am now back to reading as before and look forward to sharing my honest reviews as always going forward. I thank you f0r the patience and understanding throughout x

Are there any books about Vegas that don't have a secret hidden in them? In this case it's not a baby or marriage but rather acts of kindness undertaken when it could be rathe dangerous if they were found out.
So not the normal trope and thus better for all that.
Our heroine is a journalist, and good at her job and thus able to ferret out the secret and unmask those involved. But if she publishes and 'solves' some 'mysteries' about disappearing women, she will cause serious problems to happen.
Nicely written but the secret was u masked very early on and thus an amount of the tension was removed too early.

A playboy reputation, hides the assistance he gives to those of violence and abuse.

They meet and find their way through its intriguing story, towards love and happiness.

Meredith has always secretly wanted Dominic but after one fateful kiss as teens she has ensured she kept herself closed off to the opportunity he presents, but now she has been given an explosive story that if she runs with will blow his family apart, but nothing is as it seems and Meredith must find out if Dominic has really done something wrong or is he in fact an everyday hero

It's a while since I've read a romance in this category, and now I'm wondering why, as it's the perfect blend of friendship, intrigue, passion and romance. It starts with a dramatic altercation, and the chemistry intensifies from then on. With passionate interludes and moments of regret, this story takes the reader on an emotional rollercoaster.

Dominic's outward playboy persona masks his role in helping victims of domestic abuse and violence. Meredith, a successful investigative journalist, thinks Dominic's nightclub is a front for trafficking. She doesn't want to believe her best friend's brother is involved, so she confronts him. His denials lack explanations, but she can't resist the intense attraction between them. Her desire is evident, but she needs the truth, if she is to follow, her heart.

Set against a background of danger, intrigue and secrets, is an intense relationship. Their emotional commitment follows as Dominic's secret life unfolds.

I received a copy of this book from Mills and Boon via NetGalley in return for an honest review.

Engaging romance with a playboy who isn’t a playboy and a strong female lead. A good exploration of Dominic and Meredith’s feelings against the backdrop of violence against women.
