This was an easy read and a pleasant and sexy one to get through in one go. The plot is on the flimsy side, with a bit of the mafia, a bit of threatening behaviour, and getting a job as a waitress in the first bar in the first town asked. Cliches aside, this is a fun read. The terrible stuff is treated quite lightheartedly, and the happy ending is predicted from the very beginning. I don't really mind that, as it was fun and kept me entertained.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. While the author has veered away from her typical MMF genre for this one, she hasn't held back on the heat.

The chemistry between Sloane and Blake is terrific, and there is plenty of suspense. I liked how they came from totally different backgrounds, and yet had similar issues.

I'd recommend reading the first two books in the series, but it's not a deal breaker if you read this one first. The characters are all fun to read about in any order. I'm looking forward to the next one!

Thank you for the ARC.
