When desire gets this hot, you’d better buckle up…
Mary Daniels doesn’t let anything get in the way of her job acquiring rare artifacts for her wealthy boss. But this particular obstacle—huge, hard-muscled, unashamedly masculine—is impossible to ignore. Stuck in a cramped car with Brodie Crews for hours en route to their new assignment, Mary feels her carefully crafted persona—and her trademark self-control—is slipping, and she won’t allow it.
Brodie can’t imagine what secret in Mary’s past has left her so buttoned-up, though he’d dearly love to find out. Maybe then she’d trust him enough to explore their explosive chemistry. But he needs this job, so he’ll play by her rules and bide his time…until an enemy determined to outwit them strikes and he needs to get close—in every way—to protect her. Otherwise they could lose much more than a precious collectible. They could lose it all.
Lori Foster has done it again! She has this wicked way of winding a leading man around our heart that has us swooning and turning the pages faster and faster just to see more of him! Brodie was simply a delight to read. He’s cocky, but adorable … funny, yet endearing … just an all around great guy! The touch of intrigue was just enough to keep me invested in the story. I wasn’t overjoyed with the strange collection part of the story, but the character connection and overall love of seeing them together was enough to make me overlook a slightly dragging in parts plot. Overall, I really enjoyed Brodie and Mary and I look forward to Jack’s story!
Mary Daniels enjoys working for her eccentric boss in obtaining the rare collectibles he seeks, but this time she’s not so sure he’s making a good choice! When she shows up to hire the driver at Mustang Transport that he insists upon, she’s not impressed! He’s blatantly hung-over, has a woman hanging all over him in public, and just doesn’t seem like he’s going to get the job done.
Brodie Crews needs this job in order to keep his business running smoothly, so he’s not about to let this uppity woman ruin things for him. If her boss wants him, he’s got him … and he’ll do the job correctly! Then again, riding around in the car for hours with this woman just might be too much temptation for him. Yes, she’s wicked controlling .. but he finds it kind of hot! It’s all fun and games until danger shows up in their rear-view mirror, then they need to play to win!
