Danika Silva is the person everyone turns to when they need
help; be it
her mother needing a leaky sink fixed or her cousin in
danger from a
couple of thugs. She's one of the top recruits at the NYPD
Academy,
and she's always up for a challenge... even if that
challenge is coming
from Greer Burns.
Lieutenant Greer Burns oversees the recruits of the Academy,
but that
hasn't stopped him from taking special notice of Danika.
She's always
right, knows the rules, excels where everyone else fails...
and she takes
every opportunity to one-up him during training. Greer does
everything
by the book, but Danika makes him want to throw out the rules
completely, let his hard exterior melt away, and tell her
everything
about his difficult past.
Neither Danika or Greer know how to act in this situation.
She's used to
being the one in charge, who knows what to do and when to do
it. He's
usually the one calling all the shots, making sure things
run smoothly.
When Danika puts herself in a dangerous situation, Greer
isn't sure he
can handle getting close to someone who could be lost in an
instant
because of their line of work. And Danika's independence
means more
to her than almost anything... Will they be able to put
aside the
demands of being police officers, and make things work?
DISTURBING
HIS PEACE by
Tessa Bailey is HOT, HOT, HOT! Danika and Greer have been side
characters in the previous two books in this series, so
finally reading
their story is extremely satisfying. I loved how Danika was
self-assured,
yet caring and perfectly capable of doing things on her own.
She's fiercely
loyal to her family and friends, even if that means putting
herself in
danger to protect them. Greer has a tough exterior that has
a few
cracks in it, and Danika is just the woman to not only
strain those
cracks, but also help heal them. They both have a lot of
growing to do
to make this relationship work, and they both make mistakes
along the
way, but one thing is crystal clear: they both want to make
it work! I did
find it a little unbelievable that a superior officer and a
police academy
recruit would be allowed to be together so leniently, but
the forbidden
nature of their budding romance added another steamy aspect
to their
relationship. The love scenes are SUPER steamy—these characters
have their own unique love language with a really
interesting push/pull
dynamic. All in all,
DISTURBING
HIS
PEACE is a wonderful book in Tessa Bailey's
The
Academy series. Highly
recommend!
Danika Silva can't stand Lt. Greer Burns. Her roommate's
older brother may be sexy as hell, but he's also a cold,
unfeeling robot. She just wants to graduate and forget about
her scowling superior. But when a dangerous mistake lands
Danika on probation—under Greer's watch—she's forced to
interact with the big, hulking jerk. Call him daily to check
in? Done. Ride shotgun in his cruiser every night? Done. Try
not to climb into his giant, muscular lap and kiss him?
Umm…
Greer doesn't let anything—or
anyone—distract him from the job. Except lately, all he
can think about is Danika. He's wanted the beautiful, cocky
recruit since the moment he saw her. But she's reckless and
unpredictable, and Greer is painfully aware of what can
happen when an officer doesn't follow the rules. Probation
seemed like a good idea, but now Danika's scent is in his
car and he's replayed her voicemails twenty times.
Christ, he's a goner.
Danika's melting Greer's stone-cold exterior one ride-along
at a time. Being together could have serious consequences…
but breaking a few rules never hurt anybody, right?
