Lost in Shadows in the second book in the Lost series, but can easily be read as a standalone. This is Jeb and Carolina's story.
Jeb runs his own private security firm. When his friend calls in a favor to protect his sister he gets way more than he expected. Jeb is a tough, yet gentle alpha.
Carolina is a journalist she's highly intelligent, but a bit reclusive.
This is a fast paced read, told from a dual point of view. A captivating romantic suspense full of intrigue, suspense and danger. I loved the banter between the hero and heroine, it's fun, flirty and at times full of humor. Lost in Shadows is a hot, steamy, sweet and humorous read.
The secondary characters make this a captivating and engaging story. Tom, Katie and Butch are fun and make for quite a few laugh out loud moments.
Strong themes of family and friendship flow throughout this story line.
Although this was my first Anita DeVito book, I look forward to reading more of her work in the future.

Anita’s rapid paced storytelling style pulls readers into a parallel universe where mystery, mayhem, murder are the order of the day. Her stories are an addictive diversion, trading the heavy, gray world of real life for a fantastically colorful world where bad is good, and cool is smoking hot.
Raised on America’s Rock Coast in Cleveland, Ohio, Anita was born while the river burned. Music, food and family shaped Anita’s life and provide much of the fodder for her stories. Her love of mysteries and puzzle solving came from her Grandpa John, who introduced Anita to her first detective hero – Nero Wolfe. Food was as central a character in Anita’s life as it was in Nero’s, where Sunday dinner at Nonna’s table was a command performance.
