Blurb:
Sergeant Alyssa Bloom knows what it means to stay in
control, be alert to her surroundings. Staying mentally tough and keeping a
level head is not so easy to do around the hot, young rookie she's assigned to
train.
Nate Wilshire has the best job in the world and the sexiest
partner a guy could ask for. Alyssa might be showing him the ropes, but he has
a few things he’d like to teach her. Unwilling to act on his desires and risk
unprofessional conduct, he asks Madame Eve to find him someone to scratch the
itch Alyssa can’t.
Needing some relief from the intense heat of her attraction
to her subordinate, Alyssa agrees to a 1Night Stand. When her date is none
other than her handsome partner, she has a decision to make— leave…or let her
heart finally take control.
My
Review:
I adored this 1NS. The parts where Alyssa is checking Nate
out and trying to concentrate on work at the same time, and then the flip side
of Nate trying to hold it together. The chemistry was definitely there but
they’re partners, it just can’t happen. They both come to the 1NS service
differently and neither expect to see the other but when they finally let go its
explosive.
Alyssa is a strong confident capable woman who never lets
go, and Nate is sexy Alpha who just wants to make her let go while screaming
his name preferably. They were definitely made for each other and with the
decisions made in the heat of the moment could change their lives. I think it
was the perfect ride for a steamy afternoon. Pick this up, it’s got two hot
cops that learn to let go and follow their hearts.

the following excerpt for Armed and Desired:
Nate
waited at the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel room and stared out across
downtown San Diego. Tall skyscrapers soared around the city, their tops dusted
with popping colors of green, blue, and red. Cars passed by in a blur, and with
dusk only minutes past and the weekend kicking off, nightlife began to bloom
along with his own anticipation.
He
tucked his hands inside the charcoal dress pants and rocked back and forth in
the uncomfortable black dress shoes. After spending days in his boots and
uniform, the toes of the shoes pinched at his toes, and the soles unforgiving.
He did not miss them. At all.
The
door behind him clicked and a brush of air alerted him someone entered the
room. He stilled, his heartbeat kicking out an erratic tempo in his throat, but
he didn’t turn, instead watching a woman cross the threshold in the window’s
reflection. She assessed the larger-than-normal hotel suite before her gaze
settled on his back.
Perplexed,
he tipped his head, recognizing her familiar features. She progressed with a
lethal grace only a trained law enforcement officer would know, her steps
purposeful, but silent, even in heels higher than he’d ever seen her in.
Standing
to the side, she set her purse and a small black bag on a table, giving him her
profile. A flash of deep red hair grabbed his attention. He sucked in a breath
and pivoted in slow motion, refusing to allow hope to grow any more than it
had, yet at the same time, fear sliced through. The one person he needed to get
out of his system stood in the same room as he.
The
night was about to go to hell.
Facing
away from him, she took in the overwhelming luxury of the room. Desire slammed
into him, he came to life with a kick against his fly.
Alyssa.
Two hot cops sounds good to me!
