Description

Working in the shadows, CIA Officer Patrick Killion needs to figure out if feisty frog biologist, Audrey Lockhart, is a deadly assassin or an innocent scapegoat. And the only way to do that is to gain her trust—and then betray it, from New York Times best-selling author Toni Anderson.

Cold in the Shadows is the best book in the series yet. Recommended!"- Maldavian Book Reviewer's Realm of Romance

Attacked and left for dead, Audrey is forced to put her trust in an enigmatic stranger who saves her from certain death. Then Audrey discovers her rescue was actually an abduction, and the man she thought was her savior is her captor. 

Killion is falling hard and fast for his target and suddenly he has his hands full, dealing with a smart, beautiful woman who is furious at his deception. Betrayal is everywhere and Killion doesn't know who to trust. The organization he works for? Or the woman he's falling in love with? 

All the books can be read as standalone titles. Hot romantic stories with thrilling plots and guaranteed happily ever afters—they do contain strong language. For fans of Rebecca Zanetti, Janie Crouch, Mary Burton, and Brittney Sahin. 

Booksellers' Best Award Finalist in Romantic Suspense.

    I have read half of the Cold Justice novels, and so far, this has been my favorite! Killion was something else when he was introduced to readers in a past book, and he was something else in this book as well. I wish all these books could be turned into a TV show somehow. The chemistry between the characters and the storylines are so good. These books contain everything you could want: action, suspense, and romance!
  • Great book, excellent author

    I am a big fan of really well written romantic suspense and Toni Anderson is one of the best authors writing today in this genre. Her books always include intricately created suspense, strong women and heroes with well rounded characters accompanying their muscles. There is just the right amount of jeopardy, sizzle and humour and every aspect is meticulously researched. I can’t recommend Toni Anderson’s books highly enough if you enjoy romantic suspense and we beautiful written yarn.

    I can’t give this series enough praise. So very well written, it almost reads itself. Toni’s humor and imagination blows me away with every book. Excuse me while I download the next book in the series.... Oh, did I tell you this series is a must read if you love intrigue, danger and love.

    Several books ago in this series when the Vice President was murdered, his killer is still in the loose. Patrick Killion, CIA is tracking the murderer, a female. All intel points to Audrey Lockhart an expert of frogs in Columbia. Well it doesn’t take long, like page 10 when Patrick and Audrey are on the run. It takes Patrick a tad longer to realize that things are not adding up. The players know them, they just have figure the players themselves. Patrick has always come across aloof, you know, the CIA type, cold, no heart. Ha Ha. The man melts like a puddle while trying to keep his CIA face on. Neither Frazer or Jed razz Him, after all they too have fallen. New intro of some yummy Brits. I have given all these books 4 stars. They are just shy of a 5 rating. And I mean just shy.

    I have enjoyed every single book in this series, each one has its own touch of awesomeness. Alex Parker is my favorite male character but Patrick Killion had my attention from the first time he showed up in an investigation back in book #2 and he couldn't have been better in his own book. Cold in the Shadows is probably my favorite book in the series. In a way, the theme is more focused on adventure than the others books as they are more focused on serial killers and treason and each book with its own set. Patrick and Audrey are well written characters, they evoke fun, smart vibes and sexual chemistry at its best from the very beginning; they are perfect for each other. Cold in the Shadows combines adventure, action, suspense, romance and smooth wit. I am looking forward to reading more about Noah as well as Logan, hopefully they get their own book.
  • Excellent book

    Great addition to the Cold Justice series. Toni writes a great story with characters you want to spend time getting to know. I like not being able to guess who the bad guys are after reading the first chapter. Can't wait for the next book in the series!
