This review is from: Defending the Heiress (Heroes Inc, Book 2) (Harlequin Intrigue Series #709) (Mass Market Paperback)

The book is the second (?) in the Heroes Inc series. This one is about a woman, Daria, whose twin sister and brother-in-law are killed by food that she gave them. As the prime suspect in the case she turns to Ryker, the computer expert in an elite unit called The Shey Group. He goes undercover as her lover and as more strange things happen the two fall for eachother.

The book was decent- it had plenty of romance but the feelings seemed forced to me. Also, Daria didn't seem nearly upset enough that her best friend and twin sister died. It is one thing to be brave, but this chick never even cries. I would recommend this book to people who are interested in romance/adventure and can look past some unlikely characters.
