Laney Briggs is searching for a few not-so good men, including her
Texas Ranger boyfriend.
Fans of Lorelei James’s Long Time
Gone Cat Johnson’s Studs and Spurs series will love the sexy and suspenseful addition
to the Deputy Laney Briggs series by Author Jodi Linton.
Laney Briggs was almost certain that her sexy-assed
Texas Ranger, Gunner Wilson, was gonna pop the question. Instead, he went and
pulled one helluva fast one—he arrested her best friend, Luke Wagner, and
skipped out. Now Pistol Rock's firecracker deputy is ready to go Wild West on
Gunner…if she can just keep that raw, sexual chemistry under control.
Gunner was planning to propose, and it all went to
hell. Now he's boots-deep into an investigation with ties to the Dirty Southern
Mafia and corrupt cops. Yep, Laney is definitely gonna have his hide.
Especially when she finds out just how much he's been keeping from her…
But Laney has a weakness for Gunner's delectable
cowboy hotness. And for him, she will break every rule in the book—including
the ones she's sworn to uphold.
See
where the sparks began to fly with book 1 of the Deputy Laney Briggs series, Pretty Reckless.
Her gaze fell to my ass, then rose to my face. “I didn’t know a case
of blue balls was on the dinner menu for the evening.”
Ouch. In response to her question, I tipped my hat and
said, “Darling, I can’t help it if the good Lord made me healthily endowed.”
Her eyebrow arched. “Oh my god, you’re thinking about me naked.”
Naked. Up against the wall. Screaming my name. Hell, I’d take
any one of them and not in a particular order.
“Well, yeah.”
“That could become a real big problem.”
“Tell me about it.”
Laney laughed, the girly sound of her voice making the strain beating
down my fly even more painful. “Because I’m thinking about whether the
townsfolk will disapprove of me sending another load of rock salt into your
ass.”
She must’ve noticed the wince that slipped from my lips, because her
upper lip twitched in an attempt to suppress that pretty plump smile of hers.
I shrugged a shoulder. “They would, I promise.”
“Really?” She stepped in closer and ran a hand down my chest, sending
every single cell in my body humming let’s have sex. “I probably could
convince them it was an accident,” she said, tossing me a cute wink.
There’d be no argument from me on that accurate assessment. Maybe if I
played my cards right on the ride over to our house she’d hear me out.
God, I was gonna have to master a skill and learn to swallow my pride this time
around.
“If you give me a ride, I’ll confess to whatever questions asked.”
The car keys dangled in her petite hands—the same hands that held the
power to drive me nuts by simply squeezing my ass. She looked around, almost
nervous about what to say next, then fitted me with an icy stare capable of
sawing me in two. “Well, cowboy, it looks like you’re in luck. I know just the
place to drop ya off at.”
Pathetic, how much I enjoyed that nickname
There is lots of stuff going on as the all the loose ends of their pending cases come together and secrets are revealed. Gunner has put Laney through quite a lot over the years, but his latest stunt put a huge strain in their relationship and I loved seeing her making him work hard for her forgiveness. There is plenty of dirty talk and hot sex to go along with the action that will keep you glued to your e-reader or book. I'm so glad to see them to finally get their happy ending, but sad to see their story end.
I received an ARC via NetGalley for the purpose of an honest review. I was not compensated for this review, all conclusions are my own.
