***4 Stars***
I always look forward to diving into a book by this author because I’m pretty much guaranteed to have a good time while reading it and this time was no different. It was a fun, quick read with just enough drama to keep things interesting and a new group of characters that I want to get know a lot better.
I loved Carson and Skylar. Carson is a straight shooting, protective AF alpha male with a really good heart. He may be jaded, considering all that he’s experienced, but he still looks for the good in the world. Skylar is sweet, sassy and just a bit naive when it comes to how she tends to view people, but she isn’t blind to the good and bad in the world around her. I loved that she truly did see the good in people and that she could hold her own when necessary.
Their journey to their HEA was a lot of fun. They were definitely opposites, but they had the same drive to protect the good in the world ~ even if it was by different means. I loved how they first met and how they got to know each other little by little. The roadblock in their journey wasn’t a surprise, and funny enough I was annoyed with both Carson and Skylar, but I loved how their friends rallied around both of them and was very happy with where things were with them in the end.
This was a great read and a great start to a new series. I loved getting the background on how Silverstone came to be and getting little teases into each of the guys personalities who are a part of it. And while I don’t have an absolute fav, I am totally looking forward to getting to know each on of them better!

Former military operative Carson “Bull” Rhodes hasn’t dated seriously since he and his teammates left the army. Since then he’s opened Silverstone Towing—which is a front for his other job: hired killer. When kindergarten teacher Skylar Reid calls for help while stranded on the side of the interstate, the attraction is instant. The problem is Bull’s career has jaded him. Skylar’s innocent, and he wants to keep her that way.
Cautious by nature, Skylar never expected to fall in love with her tow truck driver. Even so, once Bull reveals what he really does for a living, she’s not sure she can handle it. When Skylar faces threats that have nothing to do with Bull’s job but are just as deadly, the stakes are higher than ever.
With the help of the Silverstone team, Bull will use everything he’s learned over the years to bring the woman he loves home—because the alternative is unthinkable.
