My Thoughts
Laney is investigating a murder scene when her ex shows up. Gunner is a Ranger and is working a drug case than may have something to do with the murder. So they work together to solve these cases as well as finding out who is threatening Laney's life. Gunner has an ulterior motive in coming back to town as he wants Laney back, but he broke her heart and left her to pick up the pieces. She moved on and is engaged.
I so enjoyed their banter back and forth. I wish that the author would have gone more into what happened to break them up in the first place. Laney mentioned one thing briefly and it wasn't addressed again. The murder/drug mystery was done very well. I had actually figured out the one, but his partner was definitely a surprise.
I give Pretty Reckless 4 hearts!

About the Book
Welcome to Pistol Rock, Texas where secrets last about as
long as the sporadic west Texas rain showers.
Laney Briggs has long been considered reckless, but she’s
turned herself around—she’s respectably engaged and she’s become a Pistol Rock
deputy sheriff. Everything’s fine until a dead body turns up and her ex, Texas
Ranger Gunner Wilson, decides to stick his boots into the town’s first murder
case.
Laney will be damned if she lets Gunner trample all over her
turf and her chance at a quiet, contented life. His seemingly endless ability
to undermine her resolve and her libido is only outdone by her constant urge to
butt heads with him. But when the bodies start to pile up, Laney has to ask the
lethal bad boy for a hand—and a truce in exchange for his help.
Having an ex-boyfriend as an ally might not be the best
idea, but Laney has always been pretty reckless…
About the Author
Jodi Linton grew up across the street from a cow pasture,
where she was more likely to be seen selling Kool-Aid in a Dixie cup at ten
cents a pop, or inviting neighbors over to watch one of her plays staged on her
father’s Bass boat.
In 2001, she traded in the rednecks, cowboys, and mesquite
trees of her hometown to chase destiny out west. After a few years of mucking
it around with the roughnecks, dust storms, and droughts, she decided to dust
off her boots and head home. With a History degree in one hand and a marriage
license in the other, she followed her husband in 2006 to central Texas the
heartland, fabulous Austin.
After settling into the Texas Hill Country with her husband
and two kids, she joined the Austin Romance Writers of America, and signed with
The Belcastro Agency. Today she can be
found cozied up to the computer escaping into a quirky world of tall tales,
sexy, tight jean wearing cowboys, and a protagonist with a sharp-tongue quick
enough to hang any man out to dry.
