HardassHardass by Christina Saunders is book two in the Bad Bitch series and highly enjoyable. I appreciated this book more than the first one. If you’ve read the first book, then our hero will sound familiar to you. Lincoln’s brother, Wash, steals the show in this book and gives our heroine, Caroline, a strong case of lust.

Wash is pure ALPHA and he does it so well! He’s one of the most sought-after criminal defense attorneys in New Orleans. He uses his handsome looks and charisma to turn the charm on. To say he gets his way, is an understatement.

Caroline has been lusting after Wash for the six months, she’s been working at Palmer and Granade. Even before that, Caroline thought of Wash as her idol, based on his impressive work skills. She’s not like the other attorneys at the firm. In fact, Wash refers her as the class clown, but when Caroline is the only one to correctly answer Wash’s question, she gets to help him on a murder case. Caroline proves to very valuable as she works the case with Wash and it’s very clear from the beginning that these two make one heck of a team, but with Caroline being his associate, Wash tries to deny the attraction he’s feeling towards her. But as we all know, you can only deny yourself for so long, before you give in.

I loved both characters. Caroline and Wash have some serious chemistry going on and the author capitalizes on it, with well-placed sex scenes that will overheat your e-reader. I would have given this book a five star rating but I felt like the ending was a little rushed. One of the characters gets hurt towards the end and at the next moment, the book jumps a head a little. The story would have benefited from a hospital scene or maybe a short recovery scene before the ending. Overall, this is a really great read and I am definitely adding this to my re-read list, for the future.

I cave in to no one. My hardass exterior is what makes me one of the hottest defense lawyers around. It’s why I’m the perfect guy to defend the notorious Bayou Butcher serial killer – and why I’ll come out on top.

Except this new associate I’ve hired is unnaturally skilled at putting chinks in my well-constructed armor. Her brazen talk and fiery attitude make me want to take control of her and silence her – in ways that will keep both of us busy till dawn. She drives me absolutely 100% crazy, but I need her for this case. I need her in my bed. I need her to let loose the man within me who fights with rage and loves with scorching desire…
