Arrested by Love is a book comprised of three different novellas from the Red-Hot Cop series.Copping To ItRating: 5 StarsWow, this story was hot! Warning do not read in a highly populated Starbucks because when your face gets super red people tend to stare! Seriously, I was not expecting this story to be so hot and spicy, but I absolutely loved it. The connection between Ty and Claire is electric.Claire and Ty had a brief relationship a few months ago. Claire was afraid to be real with Ty. Claire secretly wants to be a sexy naughty girl and do bad things, sexually. Ashamed of her desires she pushed Ty away thinking that if he ever found out he would find her repulsive. Now months later, Claire still hasn't been able to get over Ty. While out investigating a lead pertaining to the Demon Guardians, the areas notorious biker gang, she is terrified at what they just might do to her. That is until she spots Ty.Ty and his best friend Luke have been working for the last few years attempting to infiltrate the notorious biker gang. They are almost in and are in the process of completing their initiation when the leader ushers in Claire. Claire has been the one woman that Ty hasn't been able to forget. He felt a connection with her that went deeper than just lust and when he sees her it hard for him to sit back and act like he doesn't know who she is. Every fiber of his being is itching to grab her and run for safety. When Ty is told that he must let Claire perform oral on him to prove his loyalty he doesn't really know what to think. On one hand he just wants to get Claire to safety. And on the other he just wants to be with Claire. He doesn't care if others are watching. He's wanted her for months.What starts out as a test for the pair quickly becomes more. After the initiation is complete, both realize how hot they are for one another. Both have thought of nothing but the other since they broke up and they are bound and determined to make up for lost time.Again, this book was hot and not only was it hot, but it was believable. I believed in their relationship and the feelings that they both felt for one another. I wish this story was a bit longer because I would have liked to have spent more time with Claire and Ty.Cop AppealRating: 3 StarsI don't know if there are words to describe what I'm thinking right now. While this book was hot and the connection between Luke and Sarah is explosive, the story-line left a bit to be desired. It was a little over the top and there were some things that had me rolling my eyes. Unlike Copping To It, Cop Appeal came across a lot more pornish. I felt like I stepped into a porno and that isn't necessarily a good thing.Sarah and Luke used to be hot and heavy. Not only that, but both are in love with one another and have been for years. Sarah made the mistake of breaking things off with Luke because she didn't think she was good enough and has spent the last four years living in regret. Soon after her break-up with Luke she jumped into a marriage with another man and that ended horribly. Sarah just wants to get past her horrible marriage and move on with her life, the only problem with that is her psycho ex-husband. He is bound and determined to make Sarah his at all costs, and if he can't have her no one else will.Luke has always loved Sarah and it damn near broke him when she broke up with him. But in a fit of anger he threw himself into his work and didn't fight for her. Now four years later he recognizes he was wrong to just let her go. When he hears that she is newly single, he know he will do everything in his power to have her back in his life.There are so many sparks between these two and I really enjoyed watching their scenes together. The love and passion these two feel for one another is explosive. My problem with this story is the other characters. I never really understood why Luke is so determined to bring another partner into bed with him and Sarah. It just felt like the author wanted to make things spicy and thought "hey let me add a menage scene." It didn't really go and the way it came about was straight up porno. The guy just shows up and starts removing his clothes. Um okay? I just wasn't feeling it. I thought the the chemistry between Luke and Sarah was enough and it didn't need a third party.My other issue is the psycho ex-husband story-line. I wan't really fond of the way it was handled and I could have done without it. It just seemed like an after thought.Coping AttitudeRating: 4 StarsOut of all of the stories in this series, this one was the most realistic and moving. I loved the connection between Jenna and Noah. Noah is a great hero and is very compassionate. I loved that he wants to help Jenna overcome what happened in her past. Even though he wants her he is willing to wait until she is ready.Several years ago Jenna was a playmate and because of it, guys think that she's easy and always down for a good time. They couldn't be further from the truth. Jenna is trying to overcome a painful secret-she is a victim of rape. She wants to put her past behind her and move on, but in order to do that she first wants to get revenge. And she needs Noah for her plan to work. She needs to get over her fear of intimacy and figures Noah would be a great start. If she sleeps with him hopefully her fear will dissipate and she will be able to work on her revenge plot. She never expected to enjoy her time with Noah or to feel anything for him. But he's just so gentle and caring, so much more than she is looking for.Noah has had the hots for Jenna for weeks now and has been slowly working up the courage to ask her out. When she offers him a spot in her bed for the night he jumps at the chance. Little does he know the pain and suffering she experienced at the hands of another. Noah will do whatever he can to help her overcome her horrendous past and move forward. He has no problems being slow and gentle if that is what she needs. She is worth it in his eyes.I loved the dynamics between these two. Jenna is bound to keep Noah at bay but Noah, is such a sweetheart he continues to push, but he's not overbearing at all. He gives Jenna exactly what she needs. I wish that this story would have been a bit longer because there is so much more from these two I would have liked to have seen. I loved their connection and I found their story to be much more sweet that the previous ones in the the Red Hot-Cop series. Don't get me wrong, this book was still hot, it just felt like this story focused more on their connection rather than the sex.OverallAs a whole, I really enjoyed this series. I thought that the author brought something unique to each story along with strong connections between the characters. Each relationship felt real and the chemistry was there for them all. Mix in with that super hot sex scenes. This series is super hot and I hope the author has more stories to go along in this series.
