Well acted and pretty well made romance-thriller with two charismatic performances from Costner and Houston. A little far-fetched at the end but I still enjoyed this, especially for the music from Houston. **3.75/5**
Never let her out of your sight. Never let your guard down. Never fall in love.

But before long, all that tension sparks fireworks of another sort, and the love-averse tough guy is torn between duty and romance.
