- EXCERPT -
I smiled as a younger guy three feet away ducked his head in embarrassment.
“Now these would look fucking amazing on you. Damn, baby.” Josh’s eyes gleamed in excitement as he looked up at me. “I may go broke if you keep bringing me to places like these.”
I giggled as I grabbed the pink, lacy, and completely see-through nightie he held in his other hand.
“We’ll take one of these in every color you have,” he hollered to the clerk.
I hid my head against his chest and tickled his sides.
“What?” he grunted and tried to pull back from my assault. “You can’t blame me for trying, sweetheart.
Forget about getting dressed daily. I think you should live in these nighties.”
I tilted my head and looked up at him. “You are insatiable.” I rose up on my tiptoes, bringing my lips close to his. “And extremely adorable.”
He closed the distance and kissed me, wrapping his arm around my waist securely. His tongue rolled with mine, and for a moment I forgot we were standing in the center of a department store. Someone cleared their throat, and I broke the kiss to look over my shoulder. An older salesperson was giving us a disapproving glare.
“Sorry,” I offered. When I turned back to face Josh, he was grinning from ear to ear.
“So—” He waggled his eyebrows suggestively. “—we are getting some of these. Right?”
I lifted up the light pink nightie and shook it in front of his face. “We’ll get this one and the red one,” I assured him as I walked toward the sales clerk at the checkout counter. When I looked back over my shoulder, Josh was smiling brightly and following close behind.
“Now that’s my girl. Looks like tonight we’re
staying in.”
I rolled my eyes and turned forward again as he chuckled.

My Review:: Oh I truly enjoyed this new story from CA Harms. Its full of suspense, romance, action and OMG—so hot sexual action that it is DELISH!!
Josh Phoenix, FBI agent gets a new assignment to go undercover to infiltrate the Russian mob and as he did this, he met this wonderful woman named Gabriella Shannon whom he met by accident when he wasn’t undercover. He met her when he and his friend were out on a date and he saw her across the room while he was on a date from hell. He went over to the bar to get away from a date and ran into Gabby. They started a conversation, one thing led to another and they ended up sharing a blistering kiss. Josh knew this was his dream woman and he needed her bad. But being in a relationship while undercover isn’t the best thing to do… but this woman is the air he needs to breathe and he just needs her.Gabriella Shannon is a well-known real estate agent and she works hard, is loved and when she meets Josh, the earth moved for her. She found things he said to be odd and at times caught him in lies but she had to give him chances because she loved him. Love, weird that found herself in love with him but love all the same. He told her he was a police officer after one of the last lies she caught him in and his job was dangerous but she has to believe him and have hope.
There are so many twists and turns in this story—including the fact that it involves Gabriella sister, Brooklyn. Deceptions, Lies, Heartbreaking moments where you don’t know whom to believe –I didn’t know what was going on which is why this story was so emotionally twisted from 45% on. You can feel how much Josh loves Gabriella and how he fought to do everything he can to wrap up this investigation but he was being dragged back in—and you didn’t know why he was or whom to trust. There are secondary characters that I wonder if they are good guys or bad--Frank is Joshua’s boss and has heavy investments into Leo and Roman. Oh how I loved this mafia story—and how my heart broke for Josh and Gabby. I don’t know what is going on and I AM DYING already for book 2. Please say we won’t have to wait long for book 2. It ended on a cliffhanger and oh MY what a cliffhanger. I was literally screaming at my kindle when I read it. Like I mentioned, you don’t know who to trust and what their end game here but there is evil afoot and the players are in a chess game. One wrong move and……
My rating: 4.9stars *****
