Justifable Cause, Book 2
His role on an anti-counterfeiting task force earned NYPD Sergeant Gabe Townsend the catch of a lifetime—tough as nails but sexy as hell Jo Pomeroy. The woman has a body that drives him wild and a way of attracting danger that’s making him crazy. And her relentless pursuit of an elusive criminal has his protective instincts in overdrive.
Jo didn’t get to be a hotshot attorney by giving up easily. Her high-end clients count on her to keep knockoffs of their luxury goods off the streets. Distractions are the last thing she needs. Especially six-foot-three, hard body calendar-worthy distractions.
She failed once, letting a smuggler slip through her grasp. Next time, he’ll have nowhere to run. A lead takes Jo and Gabe to a small town where not everything—or anyone—is as innocent as it seems. Making this bust could be the biggest break of her career…but at what risk to her newfound love?
The scorching attraction between Jo and Gabe continues in this clever romantic adventure. Still on the trail of a counterfeit fashion mastermind, the cop and the lawyer are enemies one minute and heating things up between the sheets the next. A lot of action happens between the romance and the suspense is high. I read the story straight through in one sitting and now am anxious for the next installment! I may have to go back and reread the first story in the series just to get my fix.
I have really enjoyed what I have read thus far and am looking forward to the next in the series. I don't like to give plots away so I will not go into detail. But I will say if you like a well written book, with a great plot, this is a book (and series) for you. I have not been disappointed with a single Adrienne Giordano book I had read thus far. I will also add, I am a very fast reader and consume books like cake, which I happen to love, so I have a very large collection of books to judge this one against.
