The A in Jessamy Darling’s name stands for a lot to deal with.
Her complete disregard for all forms of authority stems from a childhood past where her parents didn’t believe that her brother was a literal psychopath. From framing her for killing the family dog to stuffing her backpack full of prescription drugs, then reporting her, her brother has made it his life’s mission to make her as miserable as possible.
The moment she turned eighteen, she bailed from her parents’ house like the bottom of her feet were on fire. But if she thought that moving out would stop her brother’s punishments, she was wrong. He only gets more creative.
And by getting more creative, he starts to turn the town of Sawtooth against her.
No grandma, biker, or shop owner wants anything to do with her.
Eventually, she decides…fuck it.
If everyone was going to hate her anyway, why not give them a real reason to hate her?
***
For years, he’s been dealing with her attitude. Her complete disregard for anyone and anything should wear thin.
Except Black’s always had a soft spot for trouble.
And she’s Trouble with a capital T.
He’s pulled her out of more fires than he should have, and he probably should’ve locked her up and thrown away the key a long time ago.
But Black Adkins, sheriff of Jesper County, wasn’t elected into that position because he was a stand-up guy. He’s a rebel at heart, and Jessamy Darling is his kryptonite.
Putting Jessamy in a cage would break her, and he only wants to see her fly.

REVIEW
4 Stars
This is the eleventh book in the series. It is one I've been waiting for because Black has intrigued me through out this series. Plus a troublemaker and the sheriff sounds so good. I'm not gonna lie there were a few parts I was not a fan of and it is one of the things I really dislike to read in my romance books. Truthfully the only reason I kept reading is because I'm a huge fan of Lani Lynn vale's books otherwise I would have stepped away from this book. Man Jessamy's brother is pure evil and getting all the details of what he has put her through boiled my blood. She thinks she has no one in her corner, but she is about to see for herself that's not true. I really loved how Black was looking out for her. There banter and back and forth was a highlight of this book for me. There is a moment for Black that had tears flowing. It hit me with all the feels. This book really took me on a roller coaster of emotions. I would be gasping in delight and the next breath gasping in shock and holding onto my seat. A good addition to the series!
