Barbara Colley is brilliant

Hunter Davis returns to his home and wife, Leah Davis. Hunter has amnesia and doesn't remember his name, he doesn't know that Leah is his wife, and he doesn't know anything else about his life. All he had was a vague image of a woman and an address in New Orleans. Four months earlier, Leah had been told by the Orlando Police Department that her husband had died in an automobile accident with an 18-wheeler. People are shooting at Hunter and he can't remember why. Leah is pregnant with Hunter's child but can't tell him because she doesn't know if knowledge of that fact would endanger their unborn baby, so she tells him that they were friends before the accident and that her name is Leah Johnson and she doesn't mention the baby growing inside her. Hunter realizes that Leah is the key to unlocking his memory but he doesn't know if he can trust her. On his first day after returning to the home he does not know is his, FBI agents with a search warrant knock on the door and once inside tell Hunter that they are not there to hurt him but to protect him. They tell him they can't tell him any more than that. Hunter and Leah agreed to go into protective custody but while the FBI agents are driving them to a safe house, a mysterious black SUV tailed them and shot out the rear window and chased them with guns a-blazing. The FBI agent driving the car allows Hunter and Leah to jump out of the car after turning a corner and were out of the SUV's view for a few brief seconds. Throughout the rest of the story, Hunter and Leah have to dodge both the FBI and the bad guys as they try to unravel the mystery of why someone wants Hunter dead. Barbara Colley has brilliantly weaved a set of intricate details and circumstances into a superb and intriguing mystery that kept me wondering and guessing right up to the very last page. She has embedded into her story numerous cliffhangers that would not let me put the book down. Every page is filled with suspense and the sexual tension between Leah and Hunter keeps building and building throughout until they can no longer control their urges and desires. The main characters are interesting and believable. Even the secondary characters were true to life. I enjoyed reading about New Orleans and all of its charms: a camp on Lake Pontchartrain decorated in Mardi Gras motifs, New Orleans streetcars, a tropical storm, oyster po'boy sandwiches, Audubon Zoo, and a Mardi Gras parade, to mention only a few. Barbara Colley's book is so extremely well written and intriguing that I can't wait for the next one to be released. I felt really good reading this book and I know that anyone else would enjoy it as well. I highly recommend it.
