the setup…
New Washington DC Detective Samantha (Sam) Holland reluctantly accompanies her sister Angela to a party she has less than zero interest in going. Per chance, she meets a man, Nick Cappuano, who seems to want to be there even less than she does. They immediately hit it off, surprising them both.
the heart of the story…
I read this almost eight years ago after I’d already gotten up to date in the series and Sam and Nick’s encounter was always referenced without any details. Left to my imagination, it didn’t even come close to the reality in this story!
the narration…
I love Eva Kaminsky’s voice for Sam and she did justice to her more youthful version. I’m glad I chose to listen to this story the second time around because it made a difference.
the bottom line…
Since I’m rereading the series, it all feels new as it’s been over ten years since I first started. I like that it also feels like a clean slate and have this anticipation of what’s next for Sam and Nick. The encounter? They broke the thermometer.

It was selected as the next group read in one of my GR groups and I lead the discussions. I’ve tried to squeeze in the spinoff so this will do it!
