**This
book contains M/M romance**
A young and famous movie star is receiving death threats, and Derrick is
on the case. Without warning, Warren O’Malley, Derrick’s long-forgotten
half-brother, arrives in Los Angeles, bringing with him his two
formidable younger brothers. The trio is determined to claim their
rightful place in the Steele family, or destroy them in the process.
With Warren’s arrival comes a dark secret from Daniel McAllister’s past,
one that Daniel is unwilling to reveal.
As the tension between Derrick
and Daniel begins to unravel their relationship, it also begins to
threaten the detective agency itself. When Derrick realizes he is
falling in love with the young movie star, he faces a heartbreaking
decision. Will Derrick be able to save the young star in time? Can the
Steeles pull together as a family to stave off this new series of
threats? Will this be the end of the famous Steele Detective Agency?
This
book was different for me on a few levels.
I haven’t read that many suspense type books in the past few months as I
used to when I was younger, but I am glad that I was able to read this book. There were certain parts of this book that I
did enjoy, but there were certain parts that I didn’t enjoy as well.
With
this being the first book in the series, I was completely confused as to the
back story of the different characters, as well as the underlying plot line in
the series. There is a lot that is
mentioned, that I am assuming is talked about in the prior books, in this one
and there wasn’t a large amount of information passed on to us in this one.
Derrick’s
character seemed confused to me on many levels.
He is in a relationship, but it is completely open. He talks about how he enjoys the “young boys”
and he doesn’t have a problem paying for sex from them. While this didn’t bother me that much, I
could see how some people would be upset with that.
There
seems to be a lot of different plot lines in this book that would also lead to
future books in the series. After
reading this book, I am unsure if I would be willing to read any more in this
series. I had really high hopes for it,
but it does seem to be more on the sex side, and less on the mystery.
