BLURB
Examples of things I shouldn’t be doing:
1. Staring at how nicely Evan Walker fills out his Wranglers.
2. Sneaking around after dark, hoping we don’t get caught.
3. Fantasizing about a life with a man who isn’t supposed to exist.
He’s a criminal, a dangerous man with connections to the Chicago mafia.
And I’m a cop.
Now we’re stuck hiding out in this quirky small town, and my eyes have a way of wandering.
So do his hands.
But the rules are clear––no connections to your former life. Ever.
We can’t afford to give into temptation. I’m only here on this Montana ranch until I can safely return to my job–and the promotion I’ve worked so hard for. And he’s only here to keep his little sister safe.
But as we’re forced to work together, I find that Evan is much more than I ever expected. He’s strong, hard-working.
Did I mention the Wranglers?
We’re drawn to each other in ways that are completely hopeless. I know I shouldn’t give in to his hot, smoldering looks or the way his lingering touch lights me up. It’s reckless.
Addictive.
I can hide it, but the truth always has a way of coming out. In Tipp, Montana, secrets can save your life. The only cost is your heart.
“There’s darkness in me, Val.”
“Maybe some. But I can see the light.”
ARC REVIEW
Val is a police officer in Chicago, she is full of fire and amazing at what she does. However, a single call while on patrol but her on a little detour for her career. Evan, who is also from Chicago and has ties to the mafia, and his younger sister, Gemma, have made a new home in Montana at Redemption Ranch.
Val and Evan have an instant attraction towards each other. However, their paths have crossed in Chicago and they are from opposite sides of the track. They aren’t meant to be together, yet their chemistry is undeniable, and eventually, they just need to give into that connection they share.
I loved Evan. He may have been involved with the mafia, but learning about his past you realize that he isn’t a bad person, even if he did bad things prior to coming to Redemption Ranch. I love that Val doesn’t just sit down and let people tell her what to do. She is a BA. I love what the two of them bring out in each other. I also love the bond that quickly formed between Val and Gemma.
If you’re looking for a forced proximity, opposites attract, romantic suspense, small town romance this is one to check out.
