READ AND REVIEWED ON BEHALF OF RED CHEEKS READS“This couldn’t be happening. Not to me. Not to him.”Griffin Storm is lost. Now on the other side of the divorce from hell, the single dad is doing his best for his little boy. As a Texas Ranger, he knows just how unjust of the legal system he’s sworn to uphold and protect can be. But it’s after the brutal murder of his young son that he experiences that injustice firsthand and something in him shifts. Now assigned to Uncertain TX, he’s found kindred spirits in the Uncertain Saints MC, a brotherhood of disillusioned law enforcement officers who have all suffered the tragic loss of a loved one at the hands of a criminal who hasn’t been made to pay for that crime.“I was destined to be disappointed…”A lifelong resident of Uncertain TX, Lenore Drew is no stranger to disappointment. She fills her time by volunteering at an animal shelter and a nursing care facility for Alzheimer’s patients. She owns a sex shop, and she’s battling a serious medical issue alone. A tiny red-headed force to be reckoned with, she is fierce and a fighter. She’s smart, she’s loyal, she’s funny and she’s often sarcastic, but she’s never felt particularly beautiful and she can’t stand that she stutters when she’s nervous or excited. Her lifelong best friend, Remy, is married to an evil woman who makes a full time job out of tormenting her.“I had too many other…things to worry about to add her ass to the list.”Griffin comes into Lenore’s store to buy batteries one night, and they run into each other again later under less than ideal circumstances. No one is more surprised than she when this gorgeous man shows back up at her place a third time and things get heated.
Griffin and Lenore. It’s originally not an obvious coupling, but as the story builds, you find yourself buying into it and looking forward to their HEA. He is pretty direct and to the point – he’s a man of few words. Griffin’s heartbreak is obvious throughout the book – the murder of his son has broken him. He may not have survived if it wasn’t for meeting Lenore, and his ever-growing love for her is refreshing. Their scorching sex scenes sizzle, but it’s more than physical; they truly connect on an emotional level that would leave any woman envious. Griffin has demons to slay, but they’re no match for Lenore’s tenacity, sass and drive.Lenore is a very sweet person and one can’t help but like her. She’s the type of person who hasn’t had life the easiest, a fact the reader learns more and more about as the story unfolds. And she’s certainly not the type of gal one would peg as the owner of a sex toy shop!, but good for her in finding a profitable niche business in small-town USA.There are a few twists, turns and surprises throughout the fast-paced storyline, but they eventually contribute to a memorable and satisfying HEA.Lani Lynn Vale is a great writer – she can keep me turning the pages and staying up way past my bedtime. I just keep wanting to know what happens next, and her work is so easy to keep reading and reading….The “huh?” part:I was a bit confused how he ended up in Lenore’s bedroom the first time. I also couldn’t understand why Lenore wasn’t a bit freaked out by it. I also would never have guessed that he had a thing for Lenore from the moment he laid eyes on her – that didn’t hit me until he said so later in the book.Favorite part:Griffin’s true love for Lenore really struck a chord.
