Summary
The Saint by Kimberly Kincaid is book five in the series but it read well as a stand alone. I felt the book had a great suspense and the plot twist was very well done.
Liam and Isabella are detectives and partners. Carmen is a confidential informant for Isabella. She and Liam have chemistry and have been ignoring it.
I don’t want to share too many details about the story line because so many things surprised me like Carmen’s volunteer work, Liam’s family issues, and how the undercover work played out. I enjoyed the story and a new twist on medical fraud. There is a little bit of forced proximity and enemies to lovers storyline playing out.
