Tough Justice (K-9 Special Ops #1) by Tee O'Fallon

 


 

Blurb:

It should have been a routine investigation. Instead, DEA K-9 agent Adam “Deck” Decker watches in horror as one Denver hospital seems to be Ground Zero for overdoses of a new drug. Now Deck can only hope a certain icy, green-eyed ER doctor will help him and his canine partner track down the deadly source.

Dr. Tori Sampson has her reasons for not trusting federal agents, especially ones working for the DEA. But the rash of overdoses--including a heartbreaking case involving a teen--is alarmingly high. And the new opioid is not only extremely dangerous, it defies all the usual medical treatments. So Tori has a choice: work with the big, brawny, and annoyingly hot DEA agent...or watch more innocent people die.

Tori’s the only person who can help Deck break the case, and they’ll need to trust each other, no matter how high the tension and attraction sizzling between them runs. But with every question answered, they realize there’s something more behind these typical teen overdoses. There’s a pattern here, and a pattern can only suggest one thing. There’s a killer on the loose.

 

My review:

Tough Justice pits an ER doctor with a hate on for the DEA and a DEA agent who doesn’t trust doctors the each have reasons for their distrust. They both hate the “gray death” on the streets that is killing people enough to work together. They find that maybe they can trust each other and maybe more.

This story takes on the fight against the opioid epidemic the country is facing with a story ripped straight from the headlines. With a love story thrown in that will make you smile.

GSD Thor will steal your heart.
