ARC for Review
When nurse Sara Peters treats celebrity
billionaire Trenton Merrick for a mysterious injury to his forehead, she is blindsided by what follows: a passionate exchange in the examination room, followed by an invitation to Trenton's mansion the next night.
Trenton spins a web of deceit and seduction around Sara that both repels and attracts her. One part humanitarian, the other international financial mogul, his professional and public life are a curious contradiction. As Sara journeys deeper into her feelings for Trenton and begins unraveling the mystery behind his injury, she finds herself embroiled in a game of trust and betrayal, where the odds are stacked in Trenton's favor, and the outcome for the loser is too terrifying to conceive.
The Way I See It
Who is Trenton Merrick? I was dying to know Frontline was everything I expected and more!! Ms. Richland has a way with words and Frontline will play out like a movie! This action packed novel is hard hitting from start to end. Whether action is action, or steamy action *winky face*, there is always some sort of action going on! I found my self at the edge of my seat so many times!
F-rustration, Sara is in a new city on a tight budget. All she has ever wanted to do is help people. City stressors have been diminishing her resolve.
R-eflex, one that is usually very natural for Sara, when she meets Mr. Merrick she surprises herself.
O-pportunity, Mr. Merrick has worked very hard to get to where he is. He is a man that knows what he wants and he wants Sara.
N-aive, so many lies and secrets surround Sara. Everything has changed for her in a monumental way.
T-rust, Trenton Merrick has asked Sara countless times for her trust but all of his actions seem to push her away.
L-ove, the passion these two share is so powerful it emanates from the pages. Love is the only choice these two have.
I-gnited, a silly mistake will throw these two for a loop. Together they will now face an impossible situation.
N-otorious, with power comes pride and money. Trenton the hunter will soon find out what real fear is.
E-ntrust, Sara has given everything to Trenton. Is it enough? Is she too late?
Pow Pow cue the menacing guns shoots!!

My Fav’s
Trenton
Yum pie...He is a total mystery but very alluring all the same! He is very controlling but he is just trying to protect Sara. I can't fault him for that. I was a little sad that he had to lie to her but hey you gotta do what you gotta do. I love the relationship he had with everyone else because you could tell he genuinely cared for them.
Sara
I loved Sara! Not only is she Gorgeous but she is a great person with an amazing heart! She fought an inner struggle the entire book. Then FINALLY she realizes what she must do and she goes after it full force! I loved her family dynamic and the way she cares for her friends.
My Wish
I want more! I want to know more of Mr. Merrick and his family and more of Sara’s as well. Ooh there were a couple of other romances that built up I would love to see them develop.
My Rating
4.0 Cocky VP, Unabashed Kiss, First Date, Gazebo, Pancake Special, Central Park, Red Dress, Mac Counter, Journalist information, Dodged Bullet, Swimming Pool, Warehouse, Shrapnel, Love Confession and Passion Filled Stars! For something a little different full of action and intrigue I recommend Frontline.

Oh wow! Frontline looks so intriguing and smexy, and I love that. Thanks for giving just enough away to get me interested, but not so much that I feel like I've already read the book.
