She’s running from the law, and the law wants her bad.
The opportunity was just too damn delicious for Ginger Peet to pass up. The purse full of money she finds—$50,000 to be exact—could give her and her teen sister the new start they need. So she grabs the cash, her gothy sibling, and their life-sized statue of Dolly Parton, and blows outta Nashville in a cloud of dust.
Chicago, here we come…
Turns out, Chicago has some pretty hot cops. Hot, intense, naughty-lookin’ cops like Derek Tyler, who looks like he could eat a girl up and leave her begging for more. And more. Tempting as he is, getting involved with the sexy homicide lieutenant next door poses a teensy problem for a gal who’s on the lam. But one thing is certain—Derek’s onto her, and he wants more than just a taste.
And as far as he’s concerned, possession is nine-tenths of the law.

Author Interview:
What do the sisters have in common? How are they different?

Ginger and Willa have a lot in common. They have an unspoken agreement not to discuss the harsh realities of their mutual upbringing and that silence is comfortable for both of them. They both use humor to make light of the awful conditions in which they were raised. Ginger, however, has shielded Willa from a lot of the fallout and thus taken on more of a maternal role. That’s where they differ.

Where did she find the purse?

In the first chapter, Ginger finds the purse containing fifty thousand dollars in the arms of her passed-out junkie mother.

What is your favorite Dolly Parton song? Why Dolly? Have you ever been to Dollywood?

I’m not a huge fan of Dolly’s music – but I’m a fan of her philosophy. She has a very bright outlook on life and how to deal with adversity. She grew up in a one room shack in Tennessee and turned her life into a success so I thought she would be an ideal hero for Ginger and Willa.

Why Chicago?  Have you ever been there?

I’ve driven through. Mostly I picked Chicago because it was the biggest city driving distance from Nashville. I thought it was the place Ginger would pick to hide out.

What would you like my readers to know?

That if they like possessive alpha males with dirty mouths, they’re going to fall in love with my hero, Derek Tyler, the police lieutenant Ginger meets upon arriving in Chicago.
 
MY Review:
With cops like this, I should visit the Police Station more often! lol. What a great strong male character. Derek is not only strong for his woman, he is also strong enough for the whole town. In the beginning of the story Derek losses a fellow cop, and it affects him badly. He definitely is a character I love to love. Stern yet sensitive.  
I also liked Ginger. She was trying to start a new life for her and her sister. She saw the money as an opportunity, and she took it. Fate did the rest.
Can Derek let Ginger go, once he realizes the money that is involved? What will happen to Willa if Ginger is arrested?
I liked this plot and it was a fast read for me. The author created great characters that were easy to like. The ending also has a nice surprise involving one of the sisters! I am giving this story a 5/5! I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own!
I am also able to giveaway 1 ebook of Protecting What's His! enter below! Good Luck :)
