Hard As You Can by Laura Kaye

Hard As You Can (Hard Ink, #2)

by Laura Kaye

Five dishonored soldiers. Former Special Forces. One last mission. These are the men of Hard Ink. Ever since hard-bodied, drop-dead-charming Shane McCallan strolled into the dance club where Crystal Dean works, he's shown a knack for getting beneath her defenses. For her little sister's sake, Crystal can't get too close. Until her job and Shane's mission intersect, and he reveals talents that go deeper than she could have guessed. Shane would never turn his back on a friend in need, especially a former Special Forces teammate running a dangerous, off-the-books operation. Nor can he walk away from Crystal. The gorgeous waitress is hiding secrets she doesn't want him to uncover. Too bad. He's exactly the man she needs to protect her sister, her life, and her heart. All he has to do is convince her that when something feels this good, you hold on as hard as you can-and never let go.

Shane. Shane, Shane, Shane. Love ya, babe. He is the perfect combination of sweet, southern and Alpha. I thoroughly enjoyed Shane and Crystal’s story. This one had a very slow build up (build up meaning, it took forever for the sexytimes to happen) BUT and there is a good reason for the but… it was warranted. It took awhile for Crystal to get out of the situation she was trapped in and realize that Shane had made up his mind and that she was going to be HIS. Awwww, don’t you just love it when they go all alpha like that? Shane was a big badass but he was so gentle and sweet to her. Getting to catch up with the rest of the Hard Ink crew was nice and getting to know some of them a little bit better was also a big plus for me. Especially….Easy. I want Easy’s story…like yesterday.
