Abby found herself witnessing someone being murdered; a police officer whom she tried to save but simply unable to given by the fact that he'd been shot. She met Ben when he went to her house to take her statement regarding her murder witnessing as well as investigating about why her alarm bell rang these past few days when she wasn't home. The attraction between them was undeniable. Soon Ben realized Abby's life was in danger. Since then they found themselves wrapped up in a pretty dangerous situation and discovered some unexpected secrets. But both Ben and Abby stuck together throughout the whole time and found themselves falling in love with each other.

This was a fun entertaining read for a thriller. I liked both main characters. I loved their chemistry and well they work together ALSO how their relationship didn't interfere with resolving the case.
I liked the twists and turns and although I guessed some the book never become boring.
Overall a fantastic read.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for the chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

Romance and a mystery anyone??

Who doesn't love a good mystery and some romance on the side to keep you occupied? When Ben Owens is sent to protect Abby when he suspects that she's being followed, he helps her and can't help but to also start to fall for her.

The two main characters were very enjoyable to read and the mystery aspect of the book was well developed.

Thank you to NetGalley and The Wild Rose Press for the earc in return for an honest review.

Mine by Design is really a thriller with a romantic theme running through it. While Ben and Abby are attracted to one another from the moment that they meet and this attraction grows into a relationship, the main storyline here is actually the threat that they find themselves in the middle of.
After digging up a time capsule in the grounds of the house that she has bought, Abby finds herself in the middle of a great deal of danger. Not only has someone been setting off the alarm on her property, but she also comes across a policeman who has been attacked and is dying. Before long, things escalate even further and Abby finds that her life is being threatened.
The story is interesting and had me guessing what was going to happen right until the end. There were a few things that I spotted before they were revealed, but there were plenty of twists and turns that I didn't guess. As I mentioned before, the romance element of this story takes second place to the main thriller element. Having said that, Abby and Ben work well together and it doesn't feel tacked on to the rest of the book. It works well.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.

Good book! This book was filled with intrigue, Action, And lots of suspense! I definitely enjoyed reading this 1! I highly recommend reading this book! Thank you netgalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!

MINE BY DESIGN certainly reinforces the notion that somewhere along the line, politicians started focusing more on themselves than on the people they serve. With this timely political romantic suspense, Moore offers a glimpse into the corruption and greed that drive powerful men to do bad things to powerless people.
