NYPD detective Aiden Flynn, whom we first met
in Cameron's bestselling Key West, doesn't have
much of a social life these days, to the despair of
his partner and good friend, Vani. Aiden spends
more time online than he does in the real world. But
when his computer crashes, he heads upstairs to check
his email on a fellow cop's computer who is on vacation.
By accident, Aiden finds some really strange email in his friend
Ryan's in-box. A terrified English photographer, Olivia FitzDurham,
seems to be under the impression that Ryan is named Sam, and that he is
an FBI agent. Thinking that Ryan must be dirty,
Aiden eventually takes on Sam's persona and convinces
Olivia to come to the United States so that he can protect
her from the threats she has been receiving when she
refused an offer to sell some freelance photos she took
while on assignment for a magazine. Olivia comes to the
United States and meets Aiden. But the pair have been framed
for a crime they didn't commit, and must go on the run to
clear their names. The chemistry between the two is
intense and they must deal not only with danger, but with
their growing feelings for one another.
At the end of Key West, many fans were clamoring to know more about the sexy NYPD detective Aiden Quinn. Those fans will be more than satisfied with Aiden's exciting story. Aiden and Olivia are a wonderful couple, and sparks really fly when they are together. The cast of supporting characters, including Aiden's beloved dog, (who is now fitted with metal teeth) and some really memorable crooks, round out the story nicely. The action is nonstop, the romance sizzles and the humor is wonderfully interlaced with the adventure. Aiden himself is a real dreamboat, and his story is unforgettable.
