When a marriage of convenience turns into the passion of a
lifetime…
Holden “Havoc” Thompson
My job as the leader of the Moonshine Task Force is my life. I eat, breathe, and sleep it. The men under my command mean the world to me. Knowing they count on my guidance has kept my demons at bay for longer than I care to admit.
The control I have over myself is an iron fist that sometimes threatens to squeeze the life out of me. What I want more than anything is to live again – let go of the hurt smothering every bit of light I have in this darkness.
I don’t expect it to come in the form of a Moonshiner’s daughter needing my protection.
Leighton Strather
My whole life has been defined by who my family is. In the state of Alabama, we’re number one with a target on our backs. The danger and prestige isn’t for me. I don’t care about the money, and I care too much about the families we’ve ruined.
My brother and my dad are proud of it. They wear their arrest records like a badge of honor. Me? I want as far away from the lifestyle as I can get.
It’s the only reason I ask Holden to marry me. At least that's what I tell myself.
I never expect his whispered yes to cause such upheaval in my life. Even though I resist, I learn some havoc is good – and this one? It’s a whirlwind of lust, hope, and love and all I can do is let it sweep me away.

Havoc created
havoc on my heart and emotions, pun intended.
This book had my complete attention, I refused to put it down and read
it in one day. Leighton and Holden aka
Havoc, are characters that quickly become ones I wish I knew in real life. Leighton is such an easy character to love,
you want her to find the happiness and love she deserves after the way she was
treated by her family, my heart broke more than once when we learned more about
her past. Holden may have married her to
protect her but don’t let that fool you, he wants Leighton just as much as she
wants him. Holden is sweet, sexy, protective and caring all in one hot package,
add in some cuffs and my oh my.
The pace of the book is fairly quick but a lot does
happen. There were a few things that I
sort of felt was left unresolved but overall it doesn’t matter. Like the previous books in this series it
centers on Holden and Leighton but don’t worry our favorite characters from the
previous books make appearances. I felt
that the way certain things were handled by the guys were handled perfectly
especially considering who Leighton’s family is and how they tie into the
previous books.
I am REALLY looking forward to the next book because I have
a feeling that it is going to top Havoc
in heartbreak, angst and emotions.
Laramie Briscoe continues to write characters we love storylines that
keep our attention and books that this book whore will continue to read for
years to come. If you haven’t not only
added Havoc but the previous books to
your TBR lists, you need to right this very second.
