Okay, my bad. I couldn't resist the bad pun, but it's the truth. Jennifer Lyon is a talented writer no matter the genre--sexy contemporary romance, sexy mystery, sexy paranormal romance...Are you sensing a theme here? In this first of three novellas in the Plus 1 Chronicles, Jen introduces the reader to two powerful yet broken characters. Sloane Michaels, ex-UFC fighter turned business entrepreneur controls his world with strong hand--except for death and Kat Thayne. He doesn't get involved with women. He makes a proposition, negotiates the "deal," and when he's ready, he moves on to his next Plus 1.Kat, the victim of a viscous mugging, wants control of her life back. She hates being weak, hates succumbing to the paralyzing panic attacks she's suffered since her injury. Sloane challenges her, pushes her, yet wants to teach her she IS in control.This is a short work, which is good! It's a stay-up-all-night read but I managed to get some sleep because I finished reading before dawn. I want the next two installments right now. These are characters you want to win, and with Jen's skill at weaving words, the reader is in there cheering them on each step of the way.
