Over the Line

By Kelly Irvin

Book Overview

"You have something we want. We have something you want."

Gabriella has never forgiven her former fianc?, homicide detective Eli Cavazos, for breaking her heart. Then a man she's never met shows up at her restaurant, a bullet in his chest and her brother's name on his lips. Gabby soon realizes this man is connected to a powerful ring of criminals who know far too much about her.

Against her better judgment, Gabby turns to Eli for help in finding her brother. When she receives a cryptic text from her brother's cell phone, she realizes she is in deep and may be dragging Eli down with her. With her brother nowhere to be found and pain from her past threatening to overwhelm her, Gabby wonders how she will make it through this unexpected quest unscathed--or alive.

Taking us into the heat of Laredo, Texas, the secrets of a gun-smuggling ring, and the tensions on both sides of the border, Over the Line will keep you guessing until the last page.

Fast-Paced Suspense

Over the line by Kelly Irvin is a fast-paced suspense story straight from today’s headlines. Restaurant owner, Gabriella Benoit is confronted by a college student who whispers her brothers name and then dies at her feet! Turning to her ex-fiancé, homicide detective Eli Cavazos, for help in finding her brother, was her only hope of finding Jake alive. The suspense storyline was very action packed. You never knew who you could trust. Gabriella was not your typical storybook heroine that faints at the first sign of danger and never fights back. She jumped in with both feet so to speak and wasn’t afraid to face the bad guys. I liked this strength about her. She wouldn’t be pushed around. She knew how to handle a gun but yet she was still feminine. I didn’t care so much for Eli. He needed to communicate more instead of shutting people out. The romance part of the book seemed a little stilted and you never got the whole back story. But overall the story was one I would read again. I received this book from Celebrate-Lit in exchange for my honest review.
