Description:
A cop who has seen too much of the dark side of life, Mackenzie Hoyle has developed a few rough edges. He’s working a murder case and has some hard questions for a troubled student at the local high school. But getting past Rebekah de Bieren challenges his toughest tactics. The tiny, blonde civics teacher is as protective as a mother lion, making his job a little more difficult—not that he’s complaining. She’s sexy, straight-shooting, and reawakens something deep and primal he’d forgotten existed.
Mack may be as big, tough, and sexy as they come. but underneath the badge is a gentle man who pulls Becky even as he pushes. He’s got a crime to solve; she’s got a kid to protect. But maybe somewhere in the middle, the crazy, wonderful passion igniting between them will lead to a chance for happiness neither one ever saw coming.
Lee’s Thoughts:
Mack is a homicide detective who’s outlook on long term relationships is extremely cynical. Becky is a young teacher who insists on seeing the good in everyone.
Mack refuses to let anyone get close enough to him to get their heart broken if something were to happen to him in the line of work. Even though he is instantly drawn to Becky he fears that once she realizes that he career is extremely dangerous, she won’t be able to handle being involved with a homicide detective.
While there were some parts of this book that were a little hoaky, all in all it is a cute love story.

That cover is hot! This book sounds great. I’m a retired teacher, so the subject matter is especially interesting to me. New author for me too.
