One Sizzling Night by Jo Leigh: Blood is thicker than water and no matter what a daughter has some loyalty to her father, right?
At least that’s what Kensey Roberts was thinking. She wasn’t sure she even liked her father, but she knew she really couldn’t bear to live out his days behind bars. So she was going to embark on one heck of an adventure in Boston to make sure she could free him from any accusations. What she didn’t realize though was the amount of trouble she would be borrowing along the way.
Logan McCabe was ex military an ex black ops so he knew when something didn’t smell quite right. The problem was when the pheromones kicked up so high that they overwhelmed the sense of right and wrong. However he was in Boston for something higher than himself and he just needed to keep his eye on that prize.
When Logan and Kensey end up rooming together for their time in Boston they both know things are going to heat up, but they both have things bigger than themselves that they are working on. Can they keep those objectives in mind or will they end up costing them everything?
These characters are interesting and the plot is fairly quickly paced. This was not an easy novel for me to get into, nor stay attached to. There is some amazing sexuality and action as well as an amazing apartment. The descriptions of what that place is like alone is really worth the book. That said unfortunately for this reader that was the only thing that really made this book. Oh but uber bonus points, the cover matches a scene in this book so incredibly well, which rarely happens these days.

First come lies
Then comes temptation…
Former Black Ops soldier Logan McCabe is in high-tech heaven. The “smart” apartment he’s staying at has it all—luxurious amenities, walls that change color, and a seductive and nearly naked woman in the living room. Now, that’s everything a man can ask for. Except Kensey Roberts is no pixel pinup…and the sexual tension between them is most assuredly real.
Kensey is in way over her head. She’s undercover to expose a possible art thief and clear her absentee father’s name. She doesn’t need a distraction—especially the ex-military, crazy-sexy hot kind. “Captain McBabe” is over six feet of pure, delicious temptation. But one sizzling night won’t just compromise her reputation…it could blow her cover sky-high.

Ha! Love your last statement! I know exactly how you feel 🙂
I was reading one book where the heroine was described as half Irish with a pale, freckled face and riotous red curls….and the chick on the front cover was clearly Latina or Native American. Even the name of the restaurant she ran in the book was different than the one on the cover! It had me so annoyed, I almost didn’t finish the book.
