Ace is
saving lives and mending hearts.......
Anthony “Ace” Bailey
I’m not a rules kinda guy
Department Policy? Kinda sucks, but I do what I have to for the job that I love.
Playing it safe? Not my thing.
Married? No big deal when I know she’s unhappy and scared.
I’m one of those guys – a sniper in the military, a little bit of an adrenaline junkie, and a member of the Moonshine Task Force. I’ve lived through some shit.
My gut has never failed me. It’s my sixth-sense. Warning me of a gunshot coming my way, of a traffic stop being potentially deadly, or the tingling in the back of my neck when I go to sleep telling me I’ll be woken up by a call in the middle of the night. My gut has always kept me honest.
Like the day I walked into The Café and saw the new waitress. There was a ring on her left hand, but I didn’t care. One look in her eyes told me everything I needed to know. Her marriage wasn’t one made of love and respect. It was one made of fear and doubt.
It’s why I ignored that ring, why I arrested her husband, and the reason I’m willing to take my time. Patience is a virtue, and with this woman, I have it in spades.

Meeting Anthony Bailey changed my life. He did things that no one else has ever done for me.
Feeling safe? Never happened before.
Feeling wanted? It’s been years.
Being independent? I’m learning.
It’s foreign, not having someone question my every move, being able to eat what I want for dinner, and sitting out on my front porch talking to Anthony every night while we share a couple beers.
I try to tell myself he’s just being nice; that he’s doing his job and working within the community. The problem? The night he takes the kiss we both want, everything changes, and I can no longer deny what I feel. But it doesn’t stop me from trying – and I learn quickly that Ace knows me better than anyone else ever has – including myself.
All I can do is hang on, as he takes me on the scariest journey of my life. The one that bends us until we almost break, and ends with a happily ever after I never thought I would get.
ACE includes the wedding of a beloved couple, an appearance by Reaper, and the continuation of EVERYONE falling in love with Caleb!
It’s not a secret how much I have loved the Moonshine Task Force series and Ace is the latest addition to the
series. I enjoyed Ace overall but it sadly isn’t my favorite of the series. Now before you think something horrible about
me I did really like it.
I tried so hard to connect with Violet, especially since I
had been abused in the past, but for some reason I just never could really come
to like her. She was wishy washy at
times in my opinion and her stance on something
(read it because I am not going to spoil it) while it showed that she had a
morality level higher than most in her situation kind of rubbed me the wrong
way. I just wasn’t convinced that she
wanted Anthony as much as he did her.
Anthony aka Ace now he is the kind of man that you want on
your side, who is protective yet allows you to spread your wings so to speak,
who is patient and sexy as well. What he
does for Violet proved that he was a damn good man, I just wish that other things
didn’t hold them back for as long as it did.
He deserved happiness and while Violet wasn’t my favorite he did get it
with her.
Ace sets up the
future books, we learn things about some of our favorite characters that not
only open our eyes but have us anxiously awaiting the next book. While this one may not have been my favorite
of the series, it is still a really good book that at times is emotionally
draining, has action, romance and healing all in one package. Add this to your TBR shelves!
