About this listen

Best-selling author Lexi Blake’s heartfelt contemporary romance set in Louisiana’s Butterfly Bayou.

Roxanne King left the big city looking for a simpler life, but after years of proving herself on a SWAT team in New York City, being deputy in a sleepy Louisiana parish is something of an adjustment. She’s settling in, but she knows she made some mistakes in the beginning - Zep Guidry being the worst of them. Zep drifts through life on his looks and Cajun charm. Roxie learned the hard way that he’s not for her.

Zep is a man who knows what he wants, and what he wants is Roxie. He’s just not sure how to get her. They spent one hot night together a year before, and now all the lovely deputy seems interested in doing to him is arresting him. He’s not used to a woman he can’t charm, but Roxie seems immune. He’s determined to win her back by any means necessary - including becoming the kind of man she desires.

And when Roxie’s past comes calling, it might be the opportunity Zep needs to show Roxie that the town bad boy might just be the man of her dreams.

Lexi does it again. Loved the emotion that went into this book about how not many saw Zep, and how he saw Roxie. Love Lexi’s book that have this much emotion and seeing eyes through gestures rather then words. Great read.
Narration was awesome too.

I'm so glad I decided to give Lexie Blake another go. this was because the book I've just listened to was in a completely different genre.
I normally like the Black Ops titles and thats what Lexie Blake does but I didn't like the first one I picked up so I passed and decided that I would try this one. I'm so glad I found this series because the narrator Jessica is absolutely perfect she does so many different voices and that Southern accent makes me laugh all the time. the material she has to work with is of course the brilliant writings of Lexie and I never really laugh out loud with some books but with this one I had some fun listening. Zep is an awesome character in book 1 and I was happy to read his story in this book. Lexie was clever with his history and it panned out beautifully in this plot line.
the underlying tone of the book and what it stands for in regards to strong women in men's jobs and way they can influence other younger women was done with a softer approach to a serious topic.
I've listened to 2 sets of series of Southern type books of late, the previous one was by Molly Harper and it was called mystic bayou. one of the characters in that novel was called Zed and he was just a celerius as zep.
all in all this novel and it's predecessor we're fantastic for a nice entertaining listen of everyday life in a small town in Louisiana with an awesome narrator doing an awesome job . there was romance there was fun there was comedy there was a little steam, a bit of hold your breath will she or when she and plenty of I don't like this person and I do like that person definitely worth having a Read.
