Review of Hard Hart (The Harty Boys Book 1) by Whitley Cox
When Constable Krista Matthews pulls over Brock Hart, the last thing either of them expected was for that to be such a fortuitous meeting or that they'd end up living together with a baby on the way. Krista is a feisty, smart rookie cop on the traffic beat when she pulls over Brock Hart, and he has quite the attitude with her about it. But later when she stumbles into a bar he co-owns and the two end up indulging in a hot, drunken one night stand, the consequences are...unexpected. When she moves in with him, just so that they can get to know each other and do the whole co-parent thing before the baby makes their entrance, I like how they slowly, VERY SLOWLY start opening up to each other. I especially liked the way Krista went about dealing with being a rookie cop and her pregnancy. She is a great cop, and more loyal than most these days. I had a much harder time with Brock, as he was about as easy to connect to as the wind, but he eventually wore me down a bit. I never liked him or connected with him like I did Krista, but I gave him a pass by the end.
Whitley Cox is a great at infusing passion, suspense and action, and this new series starter is a great example of her deft writing chops. Can't wait for more Harty Boys!
