Sorry but I couldn't get into the book at all. I tried though, I'm so sorry for my ADD brain.

Gina and her fellow partner was shot on duty that left him grazed and her heading to physical therapy. She refuses to let this injury get her down and Mike Cutler her physical therapist has this obvious attraction and refuses to let her do more then she should at the risk of hurting herself. With the news that there is a possible cop killer even while shes off duty she can't help but stick her self in trying to catch who is behind the shooting with Mike by her side.



I thought that this was a pretty good book. I was a bit a skeptical yet curious how this was going to play out. Being that shes a cop she must be strong willed and I was a bit worried that the author would turn the character to being a wilting flower soon as the guy came around being his chest showing who is the obvious alpha and savior even if he wasn't the cop and she is. I've unfortunately read a book like that. This book I can say with certainty is not like that at all. I loved that Gina was a strong willed women who will not back down for anything even with her limited use of hands. I loved that Mike wasn't about to stop her from doing what she had to do and was willing to be by her side and protect her or be a second eye if she needed it. This book was pretty good and I really enjoyed it.

Mickey is all grown up and Gina is his complete opposite, but these two just clicked beautifully! There is a lot of mystery, action & suspense to keep you interested & invested on how it will turn out.

4 1/2 STARS!

Exciting from start to finish! With the next book in her ever-popular The Precinct series, Julie Miller brings some familiar faces to life. Years ago, we met the hero Mike Cutler Jr. as an angry, yet good-hearted teenager in TAKEDOWN, the book that brought us his father Michael Cutler's story. It was a really unique experience that we don't get the pleasure of seeing very often in a Harlequin to turn around a character we already loved from that previous story and make him the one we're following towards his own happily ever after now. I loved it! If you read that previous book, you already have a warm-fuzzy feeling in your heart for the young man that he was, and now we get to see the man he's grown into, the life that he has lived since we last saw him, and watch him develop a patient relationship into more when Gina comes into the picture. Great story line, well developed characters and a unique story idea! He couldn't top his father in my heart, but man did he come close! :)

As a cop on the Kansas City Police Department, Gina Galvan lives to take down the bad guys. She's well on her way towards making her dreams come true in the department when an unexpected bullet takes her down.

Physical therapist Mike Cutler happens to be in the right place at the right time to get a downed officer help in a timely fashion. When his dad brings her to him asking for some PT help down the road, they recognize each other. Mike is intrigued by her, and doesn't hesitate to show his attraction, but is Gina willing to put aside her tough gal attitude to allow a relationship to develop?

Julie Miller Kansas City Cop is a well written Harlequin series. The characters are well developed. They author it able to create excellent chemistry between Gina and Mike that fits into the story and progresses well.

This is the first I have read by Julie Miller and I enjoyed her style of writing.


Received ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an Honest Review

Let me start off by saying I was ecstatic when I learned Mike Cutler Jr. was getting his own story! He was first introduced in Takedown (#6 in the Precinct series) as the 16 year old son of SWAT captain Michael Cutler. Now, Mike Jr. is all grown up (he’s 28 now) and in the process of carving a niche for himself and his partner Anthony, in the physical therapy business.

Mike has grown into the perfect guy! (What can I say? It’s fiction and the word fits the guy to a T, lol.) He’s intelligent, calm, a gentleman, and devilishly good looking. He’s also logical, protective, stubborn and determined..all in well-meaning capacities. He has a close network of family and friends and doesn’t take things for granted after what has happened to him in the past.

Then he meets Gina, a force of nature he wasn’t expecting.

Gina is Mike’s polar opposite. She’s feisty, quick to take action, and insightful with a keen eye for details. She’s also sarcastic and temperamental..relatable because aren’t we all at some point or another? As the main breadwinner for her family, she’s extremely independent, but if anyone can show her how to relinquish control and learn to trust it would be Mike. And if anyone can make me like a prickly character, it’s Julie Miller.

There’s a lot going on in this book. Police officers being targeted/shot/injured, race issues, domestic violence, etc. However, everything was handled with care and consideration. There were plenty of motives for villains that kept me guessing and awake, which was a win for me as a reader.

And the romance! It was steamy and entertaining. Gina was a prickly hedgehog around Mike, but he navigated her sharp edges with a fluid grace a girl just had to appreciate! Weird analogy, but it was what was going through my brain as I was reading.

Julie’s books are great slices of romantic suspense. Her releases are always ones I look forward to and Kansas City Cop did not disappoint! I had so much fun with this book! Yes, there are some deep topics, but they were equally balanced with humor, family support, and knowing someone has your back at all times. The romance was well written, the action had me hooked, and the characters..all those cameos from previous KCPD characters and random snippets of ‘where are they now’ moments had me smiling in glee!

Glee..the word makes you smile as you say it..even if you didn’t mean too..lol!

Obviously I loved the book and could gush all day long.. but I’ll quit babbling and let you see for yourself:)

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
