Deacon has lead a troubled life, raised poor in a poor
area,
gone to jail and has almost no family. When his sister dies
he
realizes he must get his act together and get custody of
his
niece. Now that he has custody of his niece, Zig, he
realizes
it's time for them to start over again. He sells everything
and buys a garage in Half Moon Bay.
Zig is a smart little girl who loves to read so when she
sees
the book store nearby, she has to go in. The little girl is
a
hand full, and Deacon has no choice but to follow. The man
he
meets there makes him lose his breath. Deacon soon realizes
Lang the store
owner is stirring feeling in him, he
hasn't felt in a long time.
Lang is shocked by the big, sexy biker and his niece and
immediately hopes they can get to know each other better.
But
as crazy things being to happen in town and people's lives
are
threatened the blooming romance between Lang and Deacon is
put
in jeopardy. The police try to discover where the threat is
coming from and both men must face demons from their past.
FISH STICK FRIDAY is an action packed romance between two
men
with lots of baggage. The wonderfully rambunctious little
girl
Zig gives a heartfelt purpose to the story and makes you
want
to give her a big hug. Rhys Ford takes two men from
different
worlds, putting them together in a difficult situation. You
get to watch as they heal each other and get Zig through
the hard
times, while evolving as they go. My favorite kind of
romance is when
things blow up and people get shot at; Rhys Ford doesn't
let me
down in FISH STICK FRIDAY.
Deacon Reid was born bad to the bone with no intention of changing. A lifetime of law-bending and living on the edge suits him just fine--until his baby sister dies and he finds himself raising her little girl. Staring down a family history of bad decisions and reaped consequences, Deacon cashes in everything he owns, purchases an auto shop in Half Moon Bay, and takes his niece, Zig, far away from the drug dens and murderous streets they grew up on. Zig deserves a better life than what he had, and Deacon is determined to give it to her. Lang Harris is stunned when Zig, a little girl in combat boots and a purple tutu, blows into his bookstore, and then he's left speechless when her uncle, Deacon Reid, walks in hot on her heels. Lang always played it safe, but Deacon tempts him to step over the line... just a little bit. More than a little bit. And Lang is willing to be tempted. Unfortunately, Zig isn't the only bit of chaos dropped into Half Moon Bay. Violence and death strike, leaving Deacon scrambling to fight off a killer before he loses not only Zig but Lang too.
