HIT 'N RUN by Lori Power


HIT 'N RUN by Lori Power 

releases August 11th from Limitless Publishing!

This is Book One in the UNDER SUSPICION series.


Lorna Tymchuk fights to overcome a past filled with neglect and abuse.

Determined to build a better life, Lorna has climbed the ladder to a successful public relations career one slippery rung at a time. But while on her way to an important meeting, a former lover crashes back into her life—literally—and she becomes embroiled in a police investigation that threatens everything she’s achieved.

Mitch Morgan doesn’t believe in coincidences.

Mitch has spent five years trying to forget Lorna, only to run into her on his way to an undercover sting operation. Old feelings quickly resurface and passion reignites, but as his investigation unfolds, evidence suggests the woman he’s falling for might have ties to the very criminals he’s after.

When Mitch tugs any thread of his investigation, it seems to lead back to Lorna. Caught between his desire for the strong, curious beauty and the growing suspicions of his superiors, he must choose between trusting his instincts and following regulations.

Lorna finds herself entangled in a web of betrayal.

When she learns the nature of the investigation—and her role as a suspected spy—Lorna goes to dangerous lengths to clear her name and prove to everyone, including herself, she’s worthy of the handsome, tenacious Mitch. With danger around every corner, Lorna is on the run for her life, but refuses to run from the past any longer. 

She can find the evidence she needs, but at what cost? 
Mitch now knows her secrets and must find her first and convince her she—and their love—are worth fighting for, before it’s too late.

EXCERPT

The old man dropped his hand from Gio’s arm, and looked wistfully up the block towards his own house, just eight up from Gio’s.
“I used to watch her, Lisa, run to your house every day, in high school. She was in love you know. Back then, I thought it was a passing fancy.” He closed his eyes at the memory. “I remember her telling me she was going to marry you one day. She was fourteen when she said it, and I laughed. Then you kids had all those fights, and I took them so seriously. You boys, good boys, I know that now, but you had your share of scrapes in the neighborhood. I was a father of all girls. What did I know? I worried. I heard stories. But I didn’t keep in mind that you were just kids.”
“Sir, I don’t understand what you are trying to say?” The old man was rambling and Gio knew he was trying to make a point. He wanted to move him along.
“I should have never allowed her to marry that man. I should have not even considered it. But I was going to lose everything, and the Rasmussens, I owed them too. They were a good family I thought, so rich, respected. When Albert’s father approached me, it was a business deal. I did not think. I thought it was a step up, but I was wrong. I saw bruises on my daughter’s arms once and I almost killed myself.”
Gio stood back, shocked, and the old man’s words grew harsher. He was practically spitting the words out. Still he remained silent hearing the man out.
“That was about two years after Lisa married. But Celia, I could not tell her. I was mortified, and so ashamed. I am not a man. Then as Johnny grew up, and I recognized he was your son . . .”
“You knew?” Gio interrupted.
“How could I not? I watched you grow up son, and I was even more ashamed of myself.” He went on. “I never spoke my suspicions out loud. Celia, she was mad enough already at me for my gambling. To know her daughter was married to a man who beat her, had the son of her former lover, who she still yearned for, but had done this to keep a house over our heads, that was enough to bear. I could not tell her my suspicions.” The man held his hand up to his heart.
Gio was afraid the man would have a heart attack. He had to stop him. “Mr. Raphael. We all have our regrets. I have mine too. I know I wasn’t perfect. I made mistakes.” He sighed trying to think of what to say next. “I think we all need to just put the past behind us. Focus on the here and now.” He looked towards his house, where Lisa and Johnny played and laughed inside with family, and something clicked inside him. “We have all lived our lives for too long with regret. I think we need to stop regretting the past, and move on. What do you say?” he held out his hand and Mr. Raphael took it with tears in his eyes.
“Son, thank you. That would mean a lot. As many mistakes as we, I, have made, that would do my heart good. I love my daughters and my grandson. Your son. I am glad he is yours.”
“He is a fine boy. I’m glad too.”
“And son, one more thing.” He took hold of Gio’s arm once more as he was about to turn and head back inside. “You say you were not perfect, but you are. Perfect for my Lisa anyhow. I wish I had seen that earlier.”
The old man was smiling at him with tears still in his eyes. “You old fool,” Gio swiped the tears that had sprung from his own eyes, and pulled Mr. Raphael into his arms, and gave him a quick hug. The man was crying and laughing at the same time.
“Let’s get inside. I miss my family.”
“I do too, son. I do to.”

OUR REVIEW
4 STAR

Imagine having you heart broken by the one you thought was your forever.
Then to be called to their side for help when the whole world was crashing in around them.
That is what happened to Giovanni.
The problem was Lisa still held his heart, but he was to afraid to let her know that. Fearful she ould only crush him all over again.

Lisa calls Gio when she is charged with an attempted murder of her husband.
He let's her sweat it our for a bit of course, waiting to the last minute to arrive.
But when the judge releasing Lisa to him on bond, she sets forth a stipulation he did not see coming.
Now he must keep his head on straight and do his job.
One problem with Lisa so close things become a little harder to resist. Not to mention the curve ball she throws his way and leaves him stunned and quite angry at first.

I think so far Gio and Lisa may be in running for my favorite so far, but who knows, I have another one waiting on my kindle. Off to read book 4.

4 Stars
Janna went in search of the man her mother died protecting to fulfill her final request. When she finally get to her destination what she finds is so much more than she was expecting and possibly a life she never thought of.

Garrett knew she was something special when before he even saw her, but with the way she was raised getting her to accept it may be harder then he realized, especially with the trouble she brings on her tail.

Janna is strong and feisty and telling her what to do is the best way to get her to do the opposite. The life she had before her mothers death is so different from what she finds she has a hard time accepting it, but if she does it could change everything for her.

Garrett is a total Alpha he does things his way, but will listen to other ideas too. He is also patient to a point he can wait and wait, but when the time comes he will jump right in.

In this new series we begin to see a new group of characters and I'm excited to see more of them and the storyline to come!
