BLOOD AND FIRE, the latest romantic suspense featuring the
McCloud brothers, brings Bruno Ranieri front and center.
Shannon McKenna introduced us to Bruno in Fade to
Midnight as Kev's adopted brother and business partner,
a man who is tough enough to fit right in with the McCloud
family.
Lily Parr believes her father was murdered and now she's on
the run for her life. Her only clue has led her to Bruno.
She tracks him down at the family diner where he's filling
in for Zia Rosa who is off helping with McCloud babies.
Since his nightmares keep him from sleeping, the night shift
is no problem for Bruno. Things have gotten especially
interesting now that Lily has started showing up for pie.
The attraction was instantaneous and, as the two are headed
to the apartment for a night of passion, they are attacked
by men determined to kill them. Soon, Bruno and Lily are on
the run, trying to sort out the truth behind her father's
death and his mother's murder so many years ago, while
evading killers who always seem to be one step ahead.
They'll need to turn to the McClouds and their friends to
get out of this with their lives as well as the truth.
I love the McCloud brothers and enjoy every opportunity to
visit their world. BLOOD AND FIRE does not disappoint. The
passion is intense, the action is relentless, the guys are
at their sarcastic tough guy best, and the women give as
good as they get. Bruno and Lily make a great couple and
the bad guys are perfectly relentless. I particularly liked
the aspects of the story that involved the McClouds dealing
with the challenges of their reunited family, which now
includes Bruno. You'll have trouble putting this book down,
so get comfortable.
Now that the McClouds have finally found their long lost brother Kev, they have to contend with Kev’s prickly, intense adopted brother Bruno…
Her secrets tantalize him…
Bruno Ranieri has a lot in common with his adopted brother Kev McCloud’s newly discovered biological family, right down to the dangerous secrets in his past---the ones that are about to explode in his face.
Bruno’s working around the clock to keep his own toy business going, while also saving the family diner. Then the stunning fugitive Lily Parr shows up in the middle of the night, on the run from mysterious killers. Bruno is helplessly drawn to her…but Lily insists that Bruno’s long dead mother is somehow mixed up her troubles, which is flat-out impossible. The woman has to be hallucinating…but the violence that overtakes them is undeniably real.
Running scared…
Lily doesn’t know where to turn. All she knows is that whoever murdered her dad is now after her—and her dad’s last words pointed her toward Bruno Ranieri’s family for answers. When thugs attack outside of Bruno’s family diner, he fights like a demon to defend her. No matter his doubts, he can’t leave her unprotected, and soon they are both drawn into a desperate struggle against violence and greed, and a desire they cannot deny, or control...
