Mr January by Jordan Dane

Zoey is a determined young woman who will do whatever it takes to find her missing best friend, even if that means putting her own life in danger, and involving a man she isn't sure won't kill her.

Not even the cops know his name, but he loves his dog, and a man like that can't be all bad. "He had an intimate way of listening. His eyes conveyed more than words ever could."

I found the characters interesting and relatable, and the author put them in situations that put a fresh twist on revelations and drew me threw the story. The heroine didn't play an active part in the ending, which was too passive for my liking, but it was still a satisfying ending that left me wanting to grab the next book int he series to find out more.
