Breaking Spades is the 4th installment of the Hamden series, and this series is filled with hot alpha men and the women they love.Meet CeCe, she is independent, beautiful, successful, and is lying to herself when it comes to men. Does she date? Yes. Does she do commitments? NO. She was burned a long time ago, so she has decided that she will protect herself and not let another man hurt her.Meet Jarod, a PI who is battling the pain from wounds he received in the war, along with battling the wounds he caused to the only woman he has ever loved. But will she give him a chance to prove to her that he is not the same man she remembers?CeCe and Jarod share a past, a past that one wants never to relive and the other wants to continue what they had.After leaning that she has a stalker, her oldest friend and only man she trusts, Dylan, decides he needs to protect her. He hires a PI to help catch the person who is threatening his friend, but not knowing the history between CeCe and Jarod, he has no idea how hard it is going to be to keep her safe.CeCe refuses Jarod's help. She doesn't trust him. She fights with him every chance she gets. Jarod is determined to keep CeCe safe, and to show her his true feelings. There is danger lurking, and with no idea of who it may be, the two of them have to work together to keep CeCe safe.Jarod is the quintessential hot alpha boyfriend, and since CeCe has already been down that road it is a total battle to the end. While Jarod tries to show just how much he has changed, it is the way CeCe has changed to protect herself that is the true battle.  It may take several life changing events before CeCe decides if she will follow her head or her heart.Breaking Spades may be the 4th installment to the Hamden series, but it can be read as a stand alone. The characters from the previous books make an appearance, just a FYI.I received an ARC for an honest review
