Love you more is the latest installment in Gardner’s series featuring Boston cop D.D. Warren and Massachusetts State Trooper Bobby Dodge. Brought together across jurisdictional lines and with awkwardness as former lovers, the two must work together to find a missing six-year old girl and find out why the girl’s mother, State Trooper Tessa Leoni, is claiming she killed her husband in self-defense when all the evidence points in another direction. I loved the chemistry between the main characters and their differing approaches to solving the crime. This book is very fast-paced and character driven.
