Hitched (Licking Thicket: Horn of Glory #2)


Trying to catch up on some of my TBRs piled up in my Kindle account before my next binge-read session...Here's Lucy Lennox's and May Archer's "Hitched" (its the second book in the Licking Thicket: Horn of Glory series).

["Former Marine Percy “Champ” Champion has never encountered a problem he can’t handle. Flying bullets? Daring jungle rescues? Building Champion Security from the ground up? Making people seriously regret using his hated first name? No problem. He’s gotten the job done without a hitch each and every time.

But it turns out there are some situations Champ can’t handle alone, like:
• Going undercover as a wedding planner to retrieve some missing cartel data in time to avert an international crisis.
• Keeping his jerk of an ex from threatening his business.
• Preventing Quinn Taffet, Licking Thicket’s gorgeous, charming new wedding planner—and Champ’s fake fiancĂ©—from getting into danger… or from getting the wrong idea about their relationship.
• Fighting the pull that lands him in Quinn’s bed night after night, despite his very best intentions.
• Stopping the pun-happy matchmakers of the Thicket from destroying the sane, well-ordered life he’s built for himself.
• And, most troubling of all, protecting his traitorous heart from all the romance in the air.

In short, Champ needs an extraction plan ASAP before he finds himself well and truly… hitched."]

One: I forgot how high-stakes, anxiety-ridden, and absolutely-fucking-crazy this series is just with the heists and ops alone. Like, shit, my poor lungs for not getting enough air.

Two: I forgot how devastating Lucy and May are together. The build-up, the romance, the fluff and the steam, the will-they-won't-they, the heartbreak moments and the break-up moments, the no-really-he-does-love-you-he-just-doesn't-know-it-yet scenes, the hits-you-like-a-mactruck fuck-of-course-I-love-him moments, and everything in between. Like, shit, my poor heart for...all of the above.

Three: Of course this book was excellent. It was Lucy and May. It was Licking Thicket. Even if I have angina and a sore heart from this book (or the series--the whole series), it was worth it.

Blurred Lines (Darby U Hockey Boys #2)

When there's far too many books to pick from, what do you do? Naturally, panic and read nothing while you debate (with yourself) on what...
