4-stars: 'Lost in Little Havana' by Caridad Piñeiro
Published by FranJessca , 9 months ago
Lost in Little Havana is an action-packed Romantic Suspense that made me feel like I was actually in Miami with the characters trying to solve the case with them. Detective Trey Gonzalez is investigating a trafficking ring when his partner is murdered at a Miami nightclub. In comes Detective Roni Lopez, who has been tasked with assisting Trey in his investigation. She has two issues, though, while working with Trey. Trey is her best friend’s brother, and she’s had a crush on him for years. She can’t tell him she’s working for Internal Affairs.
This was another great read from Caridad that I couldn’t put down. I loved how Trey and Roni worked together to solve the trafficking case while Roni also solved the dirty cop issue, even though she had to keep it from Trey at first. I also loved how the chemistry between Trey and Roni grew when they were working together. Trey became protective of Roni and vice versa while they worked the case together. Trey’s family also played a part in the story, and I enjoyed getting to know them. That’s one thing with Caridad: she’s going to make you love every single character in her books and want them to get their books, too.
I give this book four stars and can’t wait to read the rest of the series. If you are looking for a suspenseful, fast-paced storyline set in Miami (South Beach), then check out Lost in Little Havana.
Make sure to check out the spin-off series South Beach Security: K-9 Division. I’ve read the first two books, and the characters from South Beach Security appear in the spin-off series.
