BLURB:
Will an alpha guy like Si willingly give his heart to Howie for a second chance at love?
Si Raines thought his plans were set for the future. He’d marry his fiancé, the bar-owner Howie Gray, continue with his covert ops career, and when he was ready to retire from that, find a new job and settle down to life together. But a text from Howie throws all the plans into a maelstrom of chaos and hurt, and Si swears he’ll never return to J.T’s Bar again.
Two years later, when an injury ends his covert ops job against his will, he finds himself back at the bar, only to discover Howie is still around, and in danger from a stalker. When Howie begs him for help, Si has to decide if he’s willing to get involved. Apart from doubting whether he can protect anyone with his injury, is he really prepared to be around Howie again? The attraction between them is still electric, and Howie seems willing to explain his behaviour. But can Si forgive him? Faced with the resurrection of old wounds and imminent danger to them both, can Si find it in his heart to rebuild his relationship with Howie and take a second chance on love?
REVIEW: This is book #3 in the series and gives us Si and Howie. I’ve been intrigued with these two characters since the first book in the series. The impression I got of Howie in the first book was that he was a beautiful gentle giant of a man who had a streak of innocent and vulnerability to him.
Si is a complete the opposite. He’s brash and dangerous. Wickedly sexy and sensual. He’s a badass alpha male but Howie is his kryptonite. I think that it was lust and love at first sight for Si when he laid eyes Howie. Their chemistry noticeable even though they were secondary characters in the first story.
I was excited to read these two characters’ story knowing it was going to be sweet but also full of action and sexy times. I wasn’t in the least disappointed! Ms. Brown did an excellent job with the books in this series. She has a knack for bringing the characters in her stories to life. You become engrossed in the book and in their lives. So much so that the story stays with you some time after you’ve finished reading them.
This book, this series is well done.
