Standalone

In PERILOUS TRUST, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Barbara Freethy brings you the first book in a new romantic suspense series! OFF THE GRID: An FBI Trilogy offers three breath-stealing books filled with action-packed plot, heart-stopping romance, and page-turning suspense.
It was one dark night that brought Damon Wolfe and Sophie Parker together. They were two tortured souls, looking for escape, and they weren't supposed to see each other ever again…
Four years later, Sophie's FBI father, who is also Damon's mentor, is killed in a suspicious car crash after leaving Sophie a cryptic message to trust no one from the agency. When Damon shows up looking for her, she isn't sure if he's friend or enemy, but she knows he could easily rip apart what is left of her heart.
The last thing Damon wants is to get involved with Sophie again. It was hard enough to walk away the first time. But she's in trouble, her father's reputation is under attack, and the lives of his fellow agents are at stake if there's a traitor in their midst.
When someone starts shooting at them, they have no choice but to go on the run and off the grid. Everyone in their world becomes a suspect. They want to uncover the truth, but will it turn out to be the last thing they expect? Proving her father's innocence might just cost them their hearts…and their lives…

REVIEW

Perilous Trust is such a thrill ride! I love the mystery and the intense action of the characters and plot.
The only characters that held no suspicion for me were Damon and Sophie because, well, DUH.

From start to finish I was so hooked on this. The final messages of a man who just tried to save his family, the crooked cops, the mob, the BROOKLYN mention! Yeah I was proud of that lol. 

I was kind of surprised by the reveal because it wasn’t anything I expected. I actually thought there would be a much “closer” double cross.

Damon and Sophie have a lovely and sad romance that is given new life through some serious drama.
I’m really excited for more of this series. Total A+

EXCERPT

She could see the war going on in Damon's eyes, the need to do the right thing, the desire to feel what they'd felt once before.
"I don't want to hurt you," he said huskily.
"You won't hurt me."
"You said that the last time, but I hurt you then, and I don't want to do it again."
"That was different. We know each other better now."
"That might be true, but there's something else that's also true—I don’t do love, Sophie. I'm not good at it, and it doesn't work out. I might be exactly what you want in the night, but I will never be what you want in the morning."
"In the morning? We don't even know if we're going to have a morning, Damon. You told me that I need to stay in the moment. This is the moment. So, stop fighting. Please, stop fighting."
"You're not playing fair, Sophie."
"I'm not playing at all," she said, recklessness driving her forward. She pressed her mouth against his, and took what she wanted. It was a heady, glorious, freeing feeling.
