Mace Walker has been undercover for two years. He’s finally home where he hopes to enjoy some peace and quite while he heals his wounded body and soul. He’s not expecting to walk through the door and be held at gunpoint by a slip of a woman he thinks is a burglar. Colby Parks is hiding out from an abusive ex-lover. She’d become friends with Mace’s sister and was happy to act as a house sitter while her friend went off on her honeymoon. Too bad nobody ever told her there was a brother. She thinks she protecting herself from an intruder when she pulls her gun on Mace. The two of them can’t fight their physical attraction, but have a little trouble learning how to trust enough to share the secrets of their lives.

Banged Up is an action packed, erotic adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page. The sexual tension starts building as soon as Mace and Colby lay eyes on one another, and their relationship just gets hotter and hotter until their passion explodes. The dialog is fast paced and evocative, leading their relationship along at a fast pace. There’s humor, drama, tragedy, and some really hot sex. This book has something for everyone and will keep you guessing about the ending right up to the last page. I couldn’t put it away and I plan to read it again. I definitely give this book 5 Heats and recommend you read it as soon as possible.
