Badge of Justice

Melissa is a pick up and go kinda person and is now working at a men shelter when she finds herself in danger. Dex has been working on looking more into his fathers death which doesn't seem to add up to him. That is when he manages to find clues and ties to Melissa and the homeless people in the area. After a few attempts on her life and the fact that Melissa can't stay away from trouble Dex will try to protect her and piece everything together.

There was so much going on in this book that there will never be a dull moment for the readers. Once I started it I just couldn't put the book down. I loved seeing how everything worked together, seeing as old secrets were revealing themselves over time. I loved seeing the connection between Dex and Melissa and getting to know their characters and backstories. I also loved getting the dual point of view of the characters getting their perspectives of what was going on and why they did certain things throughout the books. Overall pretty great book I really enjoyed reading it.
