Are you looking for some good summer time reads? I just finished a few by one of my favorite authors Susan Mallery that I want to share with you.
New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery invites you back to Fool’s Gold, where a newcomer to town might finally meet the man she never knew she needed…
Angel Whittaker earned his scars the hard way, but the scars that can’t be seen are the ones that haunt him the most. Since he moved to Fool’s Gold, California, he’s cobbled together a life for himself as a bodyguard trainer. If he’s not exactly happy, at least his heart is safe.
Working with pro-football superstars taught tough-talking PR woman Taryn Crawford one thing—she can go toe-to-toe with any man. But then dark, dangerous former Special Ops Angel targets her for seduction…and challenges her to resist his tempting kisses.
Even in four-inch heels, Taryn never backs down. Unless, somehow, Angel can convince her that surrender might feel even better than victory.
My Review:
I love the town of Fool’s Gold ~ it would be the town I would want to live in. I love how everyone gets along and are friends. This book is about Taryn and Angel.
Taryn is part owner of Score a PR firm along with 3 ex-football players. She is tough and keeps her heart shut. She grew up with an abusive father who hurt her and she could never count on. She left when she was 17 with help from a neighbor. She worked hard to put herself through college and even lived in her car.
Angel worked for the bodyguard school. He had settled in Fool’s Gold about a year ago. He didn’t really want to get too involved with the town or people. You see his wife and son had been killed in an auto accident. He thinks he is to blame because he wasn’t there to protect them.
Angel had been watching Taryn when she came to check out Fool’s Gold. He was interested in her. Both wanted to keep there hearts protected. You will want to read When We Met to see what happens. I loved the story and can’t wait to tell you about the next book in the series Before We Kiss. Which I will do tomorrow!
