BOOK BLURB
Two contract killers, each with a hit out on the other, must fight their growing attraction as they face off in an epic game of lust and murder across Western Europe.
When Eva and Jonathan hook up on the sleeper train from Florence to Paris, they think they’ll never see each other again. Which is too bad, because neither has ever felt a spark like this for another person. But love isn’t on the agenda in their line of work.
Six months later, they run into each other in the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles. This encounter is not by chance, because Eva has been hired to kill Jonathan. She’s a contract killer, but what she doesn’t know is that he is too.
Their meeting kicks off a high-stakes adventure across Western Europe. There will be tourism. There will be bodies. Eva and Jonathan might even fall for each other.
As the two get closer to completing their assignments, it becomes clear that they are also being hunted—by something even more dangerous than love. . . .
MY REVIEW
Two contract killers, Eva and Jonathan, meet by chance and fall for one another. They soon realize they have been hired to kill one another.
Flawed characters in a quirky story. It Had to Be You is told from the alternating points of view of Eva and Jonathan. They are damaged, but likable characters. The story is fun and the romance is steamy.
It Had to Be You is a fast-paced romantic thriller. Exciting and suspenseful.
I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
