Stone Walls
by A.M. Madden
Suspense /Romance
Synopsis:
Benjamin Stone has an unrealistic determination to rid the streets of New York from any and all drug dealing scum. That determination quickly moves him and his partner, Rob Withers, up the ranks to Senior Narcotics Agents within their precinct. A new case assisting the FBI has Ben facing the ghosts of his past. Those same ghosts are the very reason he moved to New York to become a cop.
Ella Parker is bright, beautiful, kind, and severely damaged as a result of one tragic night in her past. Having lived an idealistic life, that horrific night sent her pretty castle of cards crumbling down. Forced to start over, she leans on her best friend, Andrea Hensen, to help her move on. With Andrea’s help, Ella quickly settles into her new life in New York City. It’s a safe and comfortable existence, albeit very boring.
Their paths may have never crossed, if it hadn’t been for their meddling best friends. Rob and Andrea believe that Ben and Ella are soul mates that were meant to be together, a perfect match. There’s one slight problem. Ben and Ella want no part of this matchmaking scheme. Funny thing about fate, it’s inevitable.
Or is it?
Can a truth cause the possibility of a happily ever after to crash and burn? Ben and Ella learn that sometimes truth isn’t the best answer. Sometimes ignorance is most definitely bliss.

Review by pearls
This is classic NYPD cop takes on the mob story. Amidst all the action and suspense, Ben's friends set him up on a blind date. Neither Ben nor Ella want to be set-up, but they also can't deny their attraction to one another. As the case heats up, so does the bedroom until they must choose between his role as cop or his role as boyfriend. Told in alternating point of view chapters between the two, we see both of their feelings grow as well as their worries and concerns for one another, Both come into it with heartbreaking back stories, but are determined to move into the future. Fans of cop mysteries and of Alpha romances will enjoy Stone Walls.
