The story starts out with Lucy finding out her roommate is ditching her for the summer. However, Lucy is going to make the best of it. Especially when her brother's "stuffy" friend walks into the coffee shop. He's nothing like she expected and she quickly finds herself introducing herself as her roommate and saying how Lucy ditched them to go to some beach house with a guy. You'd think that the book would be about Lucy keeping the ruse while home with her brother around but the secret is out the second they get in town. What happens next is where the story really kicks off.Let me just take a moment to start this review by saying that I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact that Lucy is from Syracuse University. Not only that just she wears SU gear in the book. Yup, that right there got me all excited, you know because I was born and raised in Syracuse.Anyways, this was a great addition to the Line of Duty series. You have everything that makes this girl happy, an aggressive male who isn't afraid to talk dirty, a strong heroin who isn't too timid stick it to the man, a relationship that is believable, humor laced throughout and drama that isn't too over dramatized (for lack of a better word). I mean the whole climatic part wasn't anything eye-roll worthy. I honestly could see it happening in real life. Tessa knows how to write an amazing story that leaves you rooting for the characters.A bonus to this amazing story is that the MC's from the previous two books make an appearance. One of which is her brother, but the other is also a cop as well. So if you've read the previous books, it was nice to kind of touch base with them again. However, if you haven't read them, don't fear because it's not required. This novel would read great as a stand alone.I know I've said it about 4x now but I am a huge fan of this series. Tessa has easily become one of those authors who I don't hesitate to click the "buy now" button with. I can't wait to see which officer she pulls into the story next.-Book Sniffers Anonymous
