Author: Megan Hart
Pages: 53
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Publisher: Carina Press

From the blurb. (Goodreads)

DEA Agent Kendall Frasier doesn't want to see the man who shot and killed her partner. Zane Vincent wants to forget about the bust gone bad and the man he killed. When both officers arrive at the same tropical island for a department-regulated vacation, more heats up than just the sand and sun. Will they let their past prejudices keep them from giving in to their mutual attraction, or will Zane and Kendall both succumb to a little Friendly Fire?

REVIEW: 3 out of 5 stars

After the death of her partner in the line of duty, Kendall Frasier, a DEA agent agrees to a 2 week island vacation to undergo psychological evaluation and therapy; it was also a chance for her to enjoy a bit of R&R.
Not wanting anything to do with Zane Vincent, the agent responsible for the stray bullet, she finds herself on the same island as him to deal with the emotional turmoil they are both feeling.

Despite the tension, there was a mutual attraction between Zane and Kendall and although she tried to avoid him, he always seemed to be around and was quite sweet and charming. There was nothing she could have done to save her partner but forgiving Zane didn’t come easy for her.

Both were carrying around different forms of guilt, Zane for killing another agent and Kendall for not protecting her partner, she also wasn’t too fond of him as a person or as an agent. They are bought together by tragedy and slowly find forgiveness and love with one another.

The smexy scenes were hot, hot, hot! even those that didn't include a partner ;)

I wish this was more of a full length novel, it was too short at only 53 pages & there was a lot more of a back story I was quite interested in knowing.

The story was well written and certainly held my interest, I enjoyed Kendall and Zane as characters, they had emotional baggage to sort through, and it would have been nice to see more of a build-up to their relationship.

Friendly Fire is an emotional, enjoyable, quick and sexy read. I look forward to reading more by Megan Hart.
