Synopsis (Goodreads):

Jules is running from her old life and the man who wants to lock her up and abuse her. She’s finally escaped, but she’s run right into another mountain of trouble. She agrees to do one last job for her new boss and then she’s out. But once again she’s caught in the middle when she’s taken hostage by a hot stranger named Cooper.

Cooper is robbing from the rich to give back to his community and make the town he grew up in a safer place. He and his band of brothers are stealing every dime from the local mob, but when it’s time to grab the bag, he gets more than he bargained for.

Warning: If being held against your will with this hot alpha is a crime, then lock me up! These two get cozy while on the run and burn up the road. Grab it now and lock it down… We promise you won’t be disappointed.

Thoughts on His Hostage: Yesssss. Over-the-top goodness with a morally upright robber who knows what (or maybe I should say who!) he wants and goes for it. Not in a creepy way, though. In a very Robin Hood sort of way. He's pretty chivalrous as far as criminals go. So our his compatriots. I mean, sure, they're a little surly and all, but that's understandable seeing as how Cooper went off-script and took Jules with him without knowing anything about her.

It all worked out in the end, though. You know, for everyone except the bad guys. They got what was coming to them. You can't go stomping through someone else's turf and trampling their roses and not expect to have some sort of payback.

Anywho. Cooper and Jules. She's trying to get out from under a bad situation (make that TWO bad situations) and he's determined to do what's right for the people who've been hurt by her new boss. Turns out, Jules is one of them he needs to do right by, too, so that works out nicely.

OTT and FUN. Just the way I like it.
