Brent Mason is an explosives expert with the police department. He’s crude, rude and adorable. Hayden Winstead is a wealthy, beautiful woman with a whole lot of sass. These two have been circling each other since their best friends fell in love not too long ago. They have snipey comments and insults to hurl at each other all the time.

One night they banter back and forth, neither willing to back down. When the bantering goes to far, they have an encounter. This encounter has them seeing one another in a different light and it changes everything.

I so enjoyed this book. I always enjoy her foul mouthed heroes. I really enjoy them. I enjoyed her first book a lot. Then the next two stories were just okay for me. This one redeemed the series for me. Scorching hot sex packed with emotion, this was a homerun. The following quotes were my favorites:

“Be warned, though. If you take away the use of my hands, I’ll only make up for it with my mouth.”-Brent

“You think you know what I need? Enlighten me.”-Hayden
“You need a good tongue-fucking.”-Brent

“When I take them off, you’re not going to…I mean…”-Hayden
“What? Throw you down on the floor and see if you fuck as hot as you kiss?”-Brent

Brent talking about Hayden bitching about his shoulders-“You didn’t mind them last night when you were kneeling on them.”

I just love her heroes’ quotes!

This is the conclusion to the Plus-One Chronicles.

At the end of the last book, Sloane had just confessed his secret to Kat, knowing he would likely lose her. But she had made him promise earlier to never lie to her, so he kept this promise. Kat being Kat, chose to love him anyway but hoped he’d change his mind on the revenge he had planned for Lee Foster.

We got to find out if David was involved and if so, how. That closure went well, I thought. Kellen and Diego moved into their own house but were still around for Kat. Kat made a decision regarding the futures of her and Sugar Dancer. Kat and Sloane’s relationship with Drake was beautiful and by the end of the book I was sobbing.

I really liked this series. Good characters and plot. Plus hot sex, what more could you want? Everything tied up nicely. Slaone realized he wasn’t his mother’s son, he got his closure for Sara, accepted Drake as the father of his heart and that Kat was his only one not a plus-one. I will definately read more by Jennifer Lyon.

This is a continuation of Sloane Michaels and Kat Thayne’s story. She’s a baker and he’s a self made wealthy man. He’s also a former MMA champion. He agrees to help Kat train in self defense because of her past. A past she can’t fully remember.

In this book, she and Sloane continue to explore their plus-one relationship. They are both falling for each other and realizing that that they’re more than their plus-one. Sloan tries to do things for her monetarily and she’s having none of that. As her memories start to clear she realizes that her mugging wasn’t truly a mugging but not enough to clearly say what happened. This book ends with her finding out about a secret Sloan is keeping. A secret that could destroy their relationship.

Honestly, this book was a little disappointing to me. Not a lot went on and it was at times, boring. I’ll finish the series because I want to know how it all shakes out.
