This is book three in A Raising The Bar Brief Series and it is Alicia and Harrison's story and it is a must read. Alicia and Harrison have history that has resulted in her being pregnant so she goes to tell him as she feels that he should know but instead of him getting angry he takes Alicia to his house so that he can be there for her and his baby and to keep them safe. Harrison has a trial coming up of a millionaire who is trafficking drugs and people but that has caused him to have a target on his back and danger is all around him and he needs to keep Alicia away from it all but that is easy said than done. Alicia is a DEA Special Agent and she wants to get in the thick of the action to help Harrison take down the threat that is all around them but will they be able to keep out of danger so they might have a chance of being a family especially as there chemistry is just as strong between them as ever only time will tell. I absolutely loved this book with all it's twists and turns along the way and I couldn't put it down as I wanted to see what would happen next. Maggie Wells is an amazing author and writer and I definitely recommend you read this book and others by her as her books are definitely worth reading. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

About the author

By day, Margaret Ethridge is buried in spreadsheets. At night, Maggie Wells pens tales of people tangling up the sheets. The product of a charming rogue and a shameless flirt, you only have to scratch the surface of this mild-mannered married lady to find a naughty streak a mile wide. Maggie has a passion for college football, processed cheese foods, and happy endings. Not necessarily in that order.
