Running Scared was my first book by Billi Jean. She will be on my auto by list!! This was a great Navy SEAL book full of snarky humor, smoking hot sex, and some action!!! Who doesn't love hot SEALS? Throw in the daughter of the former trainer and the most badass SEAL of all times, and you have the makings of a great book!!!Lacey Fletcher is in unfamiliar territory. She is in Witness Protection, and on the run from the Russian mob, due to the fact that she witnessed the murder of a young girl outside a night club. She has to leave behind everything and everyone she knows even her name. Now she is Susan, and living in Troy, Montana away from the beaches she loves. The mountains are the last place she wants to be, until she meets her sexy neighbor Russell Ryland, retired Navy SEAL. To say sparks fly between these two is a major understatement. They both have an instant attraction, but also Lacey has a fire that keeps him on his toes and draws him as much as her sexiness. Will she give into the desires he stirs up, and can she trust him with the secrets she carries??Russell is having a hard time adjusting to retirement, so he still helps his friends out doing freelance security jobs. He just gets back from a big mission in Columbia, when on the road home he meets up with a woman that sets his libido and heart on fire. He realizes this is different than the normal post mission hookup. She speaks to a deeper part of him. He has to get past her fears, and get her to see that he is not a typical SEAL. He has to show her he is not out to just f*** around, but that he wants to make her his.I loved everything about this book!!! I laughed out loud literally, and lawd was it smoking hot!!! Once these two start burning up the sheets, they burn up the SHEETS! Not to mention the walls and kitchen cabinets!! I highly recommend this one! Get a fan, a man, and or some batteries for this one!! Hehehehehe!!!
