Just love this author's bossy alphas and also the suspense in her stories but also the way she writes tender, sweet romance. Another great read by this author which makes her 5 for 5 in my books !!! 
 Spinoff #1 from her 'Until' series follows the story of Kenton Mayson who runs a bounty hunter operation based in Nashville, TN and Autumn Freeman, a stripper from Vegas. Kenton is asked a favor by a Vegas buddy, a bouncer at the club where Autumn witnessed a mob-style hit, to keep her safe and on the down-low until the culprit is caught. He falsely assumes that Autumn is a stripper and makes it known that he disapproves of her profession. Unbeknownst to the bossy, uber-protective albeit gorgeous [typical Mayson gene pool] alpha, Autumn is actually completing her clinical hours to become an RN and the club gig provided the needed extra cash to pay for her studies. 
 After an initial bumpy start to their co-habitation, once Kenton learns of Autumn's profession they move on to being friends and inevitably much more. Autumn opens up to Kenton about her early childhood as a beauty pageant contestant forced upon her by a cold, unloving and abusive mother. But the reason behind her anti-relationship stance remains a mystery. Add in Kenton's ex and a not-so-off-limits hit and you have the suspense this author writes so well. 
 Great characters in this new series with some Mayson clan cameos added in and the author's trademark tender, sweet romance.
