Booth Pena definitely didn’t make the smartest of decisions when he was a teenager.
At eighteen, he knocked a girl up and signed up for the military all in the same day—signing his life away in more ways than one. Fast forward six weeks and he’s in bootcamp learning that he’s going to be a father while also learning that not only is he going to be deployed, but it’s going to stay that way for a year.
There weren’t a lot of things that the baby’s mother and he saw eye to eye on after that. He honestly wasn’t sure why he even slept with her in the first place.
Okay, that last part is a lie. He knows exactly why he slept with her. Because the real woman he’s in love with, her twin sister, Dillan, won’t give him the time of day.
Five years later, and he still wants her.
Now he’s home for good, being the best father and police officer that he can be, and still he’s not good enough.
***
Dillan Davidsdottir hated Booth Pena. Immensely.
She hated him because he slept with her sister, then left. Granted, she knew that he hadn’t meant to leave like he did, unknowingly and unconsciously leaving his son behind, but that didn’t change the fact that he had.
Five years later, and she still dislikes him just as much now as she did when he chose the wrong sister to take to his bed.
Maybe if he’d chosen her, her heart wouldn’t be broken, and his wouldn’t be untouchable.
But when a SWAT officer sees his life flash before his eyes, and decides that enough is enough, what’s a girl to do?
Give in, that’s what.

Booth and
Dillan have loved each other for years but have never acted on it, mainly
because of the fact that Booth and Delanie (Dillan's twin) have a child
together and it might be awkward especially as Bourne (Booth's twin) and
Delanie have the same unspoken love for each other but avoid it for the same
reasons. Talk about complicated! Well, Booth isn't waiting any more. One close
call on one of the S.W.A.T calls has him rethinking his approach to life and
change number one is Dillan; he's not waiting for her anymore. All seems to be
going well until things start to go wrong for Dillan and secrets are revealed
that show someone has been messing with them for a lot longer than anyone even
realised.
This was so good. I love this world and how we're now getting the next gen stories. I can't wait for Bourne and Delanie's story next and give this 5 stars.

So first and foremost, this is book six in a series. It's not only a part of a series, it's also a second gen story. For any of the characters to make sense, for any of the storyline to make sense, I do suggest reading the previous stories. Booth, Georgia and Nico's son, made a mistake one night and that mistake gave him one of the best things in his life, his son, but it also cost him the girl of his dreams. Booth has wanted Dillan since the first time he saw her. Sleeping with her sister and then getting her pregnant sort of put the kibosh in that dream. Once Booth finished his time in the Army, he went back home to his family and more importantly his son. Now on the SWAT team, Booth is trying to navigate the world of working and being a co-parent. After a call that went a bit sideways, Booth is done waiting for Dillan, and has decided he is going to make her his. But has Dillan forgiven him? Will she be willing to give him a chance?
We have been teased with this story for a few books now, we knew it was coming and Booth and Dillan made a good story. With some good drama, danger, violence, and some hot naughty bits this was a good read, but for some reason this wasn't the great awesome read that I normally get from her. I give this 4 stars.
