Opposites don’t attract. They ignite.
The small Montana town near the Kooskia reserve seemed like the perfect place for Juliet Montgomery to hide from her not-so-law-abiding family. But when her peace is shattered by a break-in and threatening phone calls, it’s clear someone back in New York knows where she is. It’s time to plan her getaway, and fast—but first, she needs to tie up a few loose ends. Namely, finding out exactly what the town’s sexy cowboy sheriff is hiding in his holster...
Sheriff Quinn Lodge has enough demons of his own to know when someone’s hiding something. Clearly, he needs to do a thorough investigation to uncover what’s beneath Juliet’s uptight, city-girl exterior—preferably one piece of clothing at a time. But when their chemistry goes from fizzy to full-on explosive, things start getting complicated. How can Juliet stay beneath the covers with Quinn, when doing so means blowing her cover?

Laura's Thoughts:


If you haven’t had a chance to meet the men of Maverick Montana, you really need to get acquainted with them. This is the second book in this series, and it’s wonderful. It picks up a little before the end of the last book (since Sophie was holding her baby at the end of the last book, and she’s pregnant in this one).  This one follows Quinn and Juliet, whose romance was set up in the last book. 

The good thing about a series like this is some of the romances can be set up early on. There was no insta-love for Juliet and Quinn because they already knew each other. It makes the whole relationship believable, or as believable as a relationship with a hot, dominant, Native-American rancher who’s also the sheriff can be. You get what I mean, though, right? What I really loved about these two was the power play. Quinn is dominant, which makes me all kinds of happy. He’s only a little kinky, but he likes to be in control and I love that about him. He and Juliet burn up the sheets pretty well. 

The other element I love about this series is the suspense. Juliet has secrets that are discovered throughout the book. Someone from her past comes back to haunt her. I’m not sure what it is about romantic suspense that I like, but I really enjoy it. It works well this time around because Quinn is the sheriff so he’s very involved in what’s going on with Juliet’s past. I think the suspense and cowboy/rancher stories work well together too. 

Okay, I’m ready for Dawn and Hawk to get together. I hope they’re next!
