I'd read the previous 2 books so when offered a review copy of Sweet Southern Betrayal I figured why not, I liked the series so far. To be totally honest, when I read the blurb I wasn't super excited. I hadn't been too impressed with Teague in the previous book, and couldn't see anything changing my mind about him. Once I started reading, I changed my mind. I finished it in one sitting. While some could say you could read this book on it's own, I suggest reading the whole series to see just how much Teague has changed.Teague is a blue blood, born and raised for political office. It was decided for him before he was born, and everything he's ever done in his life has been working towards it. He doesn't know any different. He graduated law school top of his class, worked for the most prestigious law firm in D.C., and is nearing the announcement of his becoming the youngest partner in the firm. He's done it by handling the firms biggest, and toughest clients including a mob boss looking to form a hold on him.Risa, is a good person who's very responsible and would do anything for her friends. In a pinch to help her best friend, she borrows money from the wrong person without thinking of how she was going to pay it back. She doesn't have the money. The boss offers her 2 ways to repay him, and she chooses the one she thinks she can live with. She agrees to a couple compromising photos with a stranger. After knowing him just one night, she knows Teague doesn't deserve it. She only hopes she can make it right with him back in his home town.
