HEATThis is the perfect name for this book, Heat. Mak, an ex-cop by circumstances with a need to pay her bills, becomes a PI. She is tough, smart-mouthed but human based on the tears she sheds.
There is so much packed into this two hundred and forty page book; from Mexican cartels, drugs, guns, women of the night, violence, murder and sex. It is the convergence of all the evils in the world. Then there is love and Heat at first sight.
Written as though a narrative with the occasional conversation between the characters, it flows along and takes you on a journey of nerve wracking scenarios, humor and survival. Not a lot of fluff just details of thoughts, actions and emotion!!
What really determines ‘good’ in this world more to the point can a criminal be a good person? Explore the possibilities by reading this book. I related to her style of talking, her inner struggles, her thought process and her courage in the face of so many different situations.
This, for me, was truly a good story, with characters that are real and constant excitement, on one level or another. The thing I enjoyed most was that it was a short read but it was packed with everything needed to be relatable!!
