As the story starts, three weeks have passed and Charley's not sleeping because when she does a very pissed of Reyes visit her for a book of sexual release while threatening her bodily harm. She figures it's better not to sleep than to deal with him.
So it's with no sleep that Charley goes about investigating a missing wife, one she quickly think has been killed by her slimy doctor husband. But that's not all she's dealing with. She gets carjacked by an escape convict, considered armed and dangerous (hmmm...I wonder who that could be???), she's got Garrett tailing her ass under the guise of protecting her from the escaped carjacker, a biker gang trying to keep her from talking to Rocket and her father bugging her to give up being a PI because it's too dangerous.
Is it any wonder Charley's a little snarky sometimes?
This addition to the Charley Davidson series has got to be my absolute favorite. Charley's wit and sarcasm are at an all time high, but she's more emotionally engaged then I remember her being in the other books. It's refreshing to find a character who can be so greatly disappointed in the men she cherishes in her life and react by thumbing her noise at them while secretly curling up in a ball to die.
I love Charley and cannot wait for the next book.
