Fatal Cure: A Standalone Enemies to Lovers Romance (Secrets and the City Book 2) Kindle Edition
"Who did this to you?" my enemy growls. You would think the most wanted criminal kingpin in the country would be too busy racking up bodies to care about the bruise on my cheek, but nope. Here he is, holding my chin, while I pretend his touch isn’t electric.
I need to hate him.
Scratch that, I will hate him again. The guy decimated my family, and I've been hunting him ever since, determined to make him pay.
That one night we accidentally spent together before we discovered we were sworn enemies was great. Okay fine, it was the best night of my existence, and the time we shared before it was heaven, but it's time for my heart to accept the truth.
These feelings between us are forbidden and dangerous.
If anyone finds out about us, we'll both be killed… And it could put everyone we love in danger.
Yet, here he is. Eyes smoldering with a mixture of rage and longing as he demands, "Give me his name."
My heart yearns for him, but how can I let go of this oath etched in my family’s blood?
With his dangerous enemies closing in, will we risk it all for love?
Or will our forbidden romance cost us everything?

From the Author
(WHEN YOUR ENEMY SEES A BRUISE ON YOUR CHEEK)
Rage rippled across his muscles as he stormed over to me and brought his hand up to my face.
Dillon balled his fists at his sides. "Who did that to you?"
"It wasn't one of your minions, if that's what you're worried about."
"Who did that to you?" he repeated, firmer this time.
"Disagreement with a coworker."
Dillon's jaw locked, and his lips tightened into a line. He took my chin between his thumb and finger and tilted my face to the side for a better look.
"Coworker," he growled.
"What can I say?" I added. "Guy's an a-hole."
Dillon's eyes snapped to mine. "A guy?"
Uh-oh.
"A guy hit you?"
"I hit him first."
"What's his name?" Dillon demanded.
"Irrelevant."
"Like hell. Give me a name."
"Why?"
"Because I'm going to find him and f'ing pulverize him."

- Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2025The characters were awesome and the story line fantastic. Easy reading and the descriptions were vivid in your mind you can see them in the places the story took you.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2022How two people as different as Fallon and Dillon could make their relationship work is mind boggling! I was rooting for them from the get go. Dillon is an amazing Hero — he is so protective of Fallon. Absolutely crazy the hell they went through.
Very unique and clever story lines in this series. Strong women with great men. Looking forward to the next book!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024Well here I thought romance had to be all fantasy, fae, crazy worlds, and shadow daddies, lol. Nope! Dillon is amazing and hot and Fallon (love the name) is brave and fiesty.
I likes this book more than the first one and my only complaints are bringing Jenna back in. The beginning and end don't match when we hear of Jenna again and the Fallon sees her in the maternity with Damian. Second kid maybe? Who knows. Only other complaint is the gun fights...too many for me.
Other than that this was a great read. Easy and captivating.
Other than that, I loved it. Totally had a different thought in mind for the plot twist, and loves how it played out.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2025Kathy Lockheart has sucked me in with her writing. She clearly does her research, providing detailed descriptions which provide the reader with a full story. In Fatal Cure, she shows the struggle between right and wrong, where tough choices must be made, nothing is easy, and every decision has consequences. Great read!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2023Not my favourite book in the series, much preferred books 4 & 1.
As a rookie DEA volunteer, i felt Fallon had overinflated sense of her experience & abilities, and a bad case of blinkered stupids. Throughout the book I couldn't help wondering how things would end, with the two main characters vs Chicago syndicate & the cartel ( even allowing for a bit of poetic licence).
Liked the few intimate scenes (quality not quantity) Just enough to spice up the book without being gratuitous or repeated in every other chapter, so they enhanced the adventure rather than detracted.
Have enjoyed other books in series so will continue with the next one.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2024Secrets and the City book book2. I read the books out of order. We met Dillon in another book. Captain in the the drug trade, meets Fallon DEA in the most unusual way. They sort of save each other and it only gets crazier from there. They don't know what the other does and get the chemistry is undeniable. They fill a void for each other. As they fall for each other and the truth sets an intense pace of WTF craziness and a whole lot of gut wrenching drama, angst, twisty heartfelt moments and sexiness.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2025This book was very suspenseful. Had trouble putting it down. The plot twists were jaw dropping. I loved so much about this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2024Kathy Lockheart crushed another one! Great characters. You really get to feel their struggles and emotions. Thankfully didn’t sob as much in this one after the first. Thank you for that. Only thing I wished for was more time with Fallon and Shane and their friendship. Thank you for another great read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Page turner
Wow, that was one heck of an intense story. It was packed with anticipation and angst and I couldn’t stop reading till the very end.
And the chemistry between them was incredible as well.
It was a perfect blend of action and emotion that made the story feel so great!

With l the hype, I expect more and it was kind of disappointing
- RenataReviewed in Canada on February 13, 2025
4.0 out of 5 stars Quite entertaining.
I wouldn't say this is a true enemies to lovers book, but it's quite entertaining. That being said, there were few times where I rolled my eyes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Kept you guessing

- AislingReviewed in Australia on March 2, 2023
4.0 out of 5 stars 3.5 stars
I enjoyed it but the romance felt more like a subplot a lot of the time. I haven’t read the first one but I might after this.
