Description
"A fast-paced, sexy romance by a gifted writer." DV Berkom, Author of BAD TRAFFICK. Every night Detective Devan Burke drives through the "Naughty Latte" espresso bar. Bikini barista, Luci Lombart, gives him what he wants, coffee poured into a rich fantasy life. Her innocent smile reminds him of a time before he used a cane to walk. When her latte stand is robbed, the suspect escapes but takes her purse with her personal info with him. Devan fears he may come after Luci and complete the interrupted attack. Luci is careful not to let anyone get too close, especially not the handsome detective in a violent profession. But Luci's drawn to Devan, a wounded soul with a big heart. Committed to always be self-reliant, to never be under anyone's control, Luci is determined to finish her medical degree with or without her barista job. With her holistic training, is she the one who can heal Devan inside and out?

Advance Praise
This was a fast paced read. Did a great job of giving just enough back story on the characters past without making you think it was too much. Loved how each character grew with the story line. I just found another author to read... -Tammy Stanley
Not just physically wounded, Detective Devan Burke is emotionally wounded after an officer involved shooting. The highlight of his day is stopping for coffee every night on his way home and flirting with the pretty barista, Luci. When she's the victim of a robbery and attempted rape, Devan finds new purpose and does everything he can to protect her. Concern for her turns to love. Luci has her own emotional baggage and together they heal each other.
I enjoyed the story. I found the information on Russian tattoos especially interesting. Well-paced with lots of action, like other reviews said, "Shot in the Dark" has something for everyone, romance, suspense, humor and like-able characters.
