As a second generation detective, Nathan Carter is a cop, through and through, one who definitely sees things in black and white. But his work ethic—and libido—are thrown off balance when he heads up the case against jewel thief, Regan Malloy. Because with one sizzling look, she’s got him hot and hard. And he’s been that way, ever since.
Growing up, Regan’s favorite hobby was learning to crack safes, and she was very, very good at it. Still, she’d always tried to keep to the straight and narrow, and only strayed when she believed a friend was in desperate straits. Now she’s out of prison and starting over. If only she could forget that she’d spent the last three years fantasizing about the stunningly gorgeous detective who locked her away.
It’s inevitable that they meet up again—in bars, hotels…and hotel beds. Despite their differences, they can’t keep their hands off each other. Still, it’s just desire. If they give it enough time, it’ll burn itself out. Because a good boy and a bad girl can’t possibly make it work. Can they?
Loved this book! There was just something about the simple, raw connection between these two characters that really got to me. He was lonely and needing comfort, she was distancing herself from those she loved most and hanging adrift … but together they felt right. It’s majorly steamy, fun with a side of sass, and a pleasure to read!
Regan Malloy grew up in a family where cracking safes and picking locks was just something you learned. She didn’t set out to live the life that her family did, but when faced with a friend in need, she agrees to do just one job .. and gets caught. Now freshly out of prison, she is trying to start over and get her life on track for the future that she wants … if only she didn’t keep lusting after the detective that put her away!
Detective Nathan Carter didn’t forget Regan after she was locked up … in fact, she was a regular visitor to his nightly fantasies! His life is adrift right now, and he finds himself seeking her out … outside the prison when she’s released, in hotel bars, in her bed. They agree to just get each other out of their systems … sexy only … but as they spend more and more time together, they actually like each other. It’s crazy! The cop and the bad girl … it can’t possibly work … can it?
Glad you enjoyed it, Nina xxx
