This is book #2, in the Accidental Love series.  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this series in order.

Talia has just won her freedom.  Another dancer in her troupe has left from an emergency, she gets a small apartment and principal position.  Then she abruptly meets him.

Reed is just doing his job.  If he does not do his due diligence, people die.  He wants to solve this case without losing innocent lives.  Then he meets her.  

The attraction for both of them is immediate.  The chemistry is spot on and the heat just builds.  I loved that we learned about both of them as individuals, and that they brought out more in each other.  Had great humor, and yet was still serious and sweet at times.  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!
