The Investigator Review

By Anna Hackett

From the Back

The only man who can keep her safe is her boss’ gorgeous brother.

Museum curator Haven McKinney has sworn off men. All of them. Totally. She’s recently escaped a bad ex and started a new life for herself in San Francisco. She loves her job at the Hutton Museum, likes her new boss, and has made best friends with his feisty sister. Haven’s also desperately trying not to notice their brother: hotshot investigator Rhys Norcross. And she’s really trying not to notice his muscular body, sexy tattoos, and charming smile.

Nope, Rhys is off limits. But then Haven finds herself in the middle of a deadly situation…

Investigator Rhys Norcross is good at finding his targets. After leaving an elite Ghost Ops military team, the former Delta Force soldier thrives on his job at his brother’s security firm, Norcross Security. He’s had his eye on smart, sexy Haven for a while, but the pretty curator with her eyes full of secrets is proving far harder to chase down than he anticipated.

Luckily, Rhys never, ever gives up.

When thieves target the museum and steal a multi-million-dollar painting in a daring theft, Haven finds herself in trouble, and dangers from her past rising. Rhys vows to do whatever it takes to keep her safe, and Haven finds herself risking the one thing she was trying so hard to protect—her heart.

Note to readers: This is a sexy, fast-paced, action-packed romantic suspense with a heroine in danger who’s sworn off men (and gets kidnapped…a lot) and a hot, tattooed former military hero (who looks fine in a suit and rolls his sleeves up showing off his ink).

Review

The series begins with a thrilling start, offering action, romance, and intensity—hallmarks of an Anna Hackett story. It's top-notch romantic suspense: well-crafted and engaging. Haven is a lively heroine determined to begin anew without men, but her boss's captivating brother turns out to be exactly what she never realized she wanted. Despite her run of bad luck, Haven stands out as a remarkable heroine, frequently getting into trouble, but Rhys is there to manage it. Rhys, an adrenaline enthusiast and former playboy, changes upon meeting Haven. Initially, I had doubts about him, but he quickly won me over. The Norcross family and their colleagues are fascinating and intriguing. I'm eager to meet each one and uncover their secrets. This series has made a strong start, and I am eagerly looking forward to the next book.
