Excerpt:
“Welcome to Neon Nights,” she said in a patented singsong. “Would you like a cup of joe while you look over the menu?”
Her voice poured over him like rich caramel or soft velvet. He caught a hint of a Southern accent, one with slow heat and some Tennessee twang. Intrigued by the way she spoke, Huck glanced up and did a double take. At close range, she was beautiful when he’d thought her merely pretty.
“I’ll take a cup of coffee,” he told her. “What kind of pie you got?”
“Chocolate, coconut cream, banana cream, apple, pecan, and strawberry.”
So he could hear her voice one more time, Huck asked, “What’s the blue plate special?”
“Beef stroganoff or Cobb salad,” she drawled. “If you look over the menu, there’s plenty more—burgers, hamburger steak with gravy, sandwiches hot and cold, meatloaf, chicken, or you can order breakfast anytime, 24/7.”
“What do you recommend?”
Her lips twitched. “What’s next? Are you going to ask for the wine list? If I had a choice, I’d go with the beef stroganoff. It’s the best of the specials in my opinion. That, or just get a burger run through the garden, maybe a Jack Benny.”
Huck knew a little diner lingo. “Grilled cheese with bacon? All right. I’ll take one with a side of fries.”
“I’ll be back with your coffee.”
Her name tag read “Summer” and he wondered if that was her real name. If so, it suited her. She radiated a sense of calm, quiet beauty that evoked the serenity of summer.
When she brought the coffee pot, she turned over the cup already on the table and filled it. “Your food should be up before long,” she told him.
“Thank you. I’m Huck.”
“As in Huckleberry Finn?” she asked, with one raised eyebrow.
He laughed. “No, not quite. More like ‘I’ll be your huckleberry,’ an old Southern saying.”
With a quirky grin, she said, “You know, it rhymes with…”
Huck completed her sentence. “Fuck. Yeah, I’ve heard that one so often if I had a dollar for every time I have, I’d be a rich man. It’s Huck Morgan, by the way.”
He expected she’d offer her name in return, but she hesitated before she did.
“Summer Tatum,” she told him. Then, she walked away, her sweet ass bouncing to an unheard beat beneath the cheesy uniform. She intrigued him, so much he’d almost blundered and told her his real name and why he was nicknamed Huck.
I never fucking screw up like that. I can’t. I won’t. If I do, the entire investigation is gone and with it two years of my life.
Huck and summer have an instant connection, but both hiding pasts, andbwhen hucks Fed links come to light they have to run but are they running into more danger? Well written captivating engaging read that has you craving more!
I have never read this author, I am so glad I did! I absolutely loved this story. I wasn't sure where it was going but I was thrilled where it went. The relationship with Huck and Summer is awesome from the start but I have to say I am confused about her ex. There is so much talk about him and that part of the story was left hanging and kind of confusing. That was the only confusing part everything else was awesome!
Another wonderful MC story we follow Huck and Summer. Summer is a young woman and waitress who is in hiding. Huck is an undercover DEA agent and is also on the run when they meet. The chemistry and attraction between them is immediately present. There's drama, action, danger, betrayal, and lots of steamy and steamy moments. Highly recommended to read.
This is the third book I've read written by Lee Ann Sontheimer Murphy; I can’t wait to read more of her books. She has written a good book. The story is about Summer & Huck; she’s on the run; he’s anu undercover DEA agent. I received a free copy of this book via booksprout and I’m voluntarily leaving a review.
A great read. This is my first story by this author. I enjoyed Huck and Summer are good together. The have a instant attraction. This story is full of twists and turns. a wonderful read
Huck and Summer. Hes undercover. Shes a waitress in a diner. There was insta attraction. Hes trying to infiltrate a biker MC club. When his cover is blown they have to run for their lives. Loved this story.
A good storyline. Some a bit far-fetched but good. Huck seems sweet and his strong woman by his side. The singer part of the book was a tad annoying but the rest of the story made up for that.
Love how the full story runs, and how both characters have to deal with their own villans, and getting in love in the meantime. How everything fell apart and put together at the end.
Huck, while undercover for the DEA, met Summer who worked at a local diner. They had hit it off right away and shared each other's secrets pretty early on. When his cover was blown, they both went on the run. This was fast pace and an easy read.
Loved Huck - sexy guy - and the story is a wild, fast ride. Kept me turning the pages for sure.
I really did love this romatic and steamy story! It was a great, easy read from start to finish. I look forward to reading more from Lee Ann!
I was in the pin and niddles throughout the story. Their chemistry was beautiful they knew what they want and they went for it no excuses not immature act. I enjoyed it good job
