Blog Tour with Review & Giveaway:Hard To Be Good by Laura Kaye

Hard Ink Tattoo owner Jeremy Rixey has taken on his brother’s stateside fight against the forces that nearly killed Nick and his Special Forces team a year before. Now, Jeremy’s whole world has been turned upside down—not the least of which by a brilliant, quiet blond man who tempts Jeremy to settle down for the first time ever.

Recent kidnapping victim Charlie Merritt has always been better with computers than people, so when he’s drawn into the SF team’s investigation of his army colonel father’s corruption, he’s surprised to find acceptance and friendship—especially since his father never accepted who Charlie was. Even more surprising is the heated tension Charlie feels with sexy, tattooed Jeremy, Charlie’s opposite in almost every way.

With tragedy and chaos all around them, temptation flashes hot, and Jeremy and Charlie can’t help but wonder why they’re trying so hard to be good...

What I thought about Hard To Be Good

 

As Jeremy deals with the recent attack on his brother's team and the destruction of a good part of Hard Ink, he's also watching Charlie and Charlie is watching him.  There's a definite attraction between the two men and each has their own reason why they aren't following their heart. It's not just physical attraction either, it's more, so they aren't able to deny their feelings for each other for very long. 

Hard To Be Good takes part in a more quiet time in the overall story, when the team is regrouping after the last attack and looking for new clues in the mystery of who set them up. I really liked that, because the spotlight was on the developing relationship between Jeremy and Charlie which made it so easy for this reader to fall in love with both of these characters. There are some ups and downs to their coming together, but in the end, it was great to see them overcome their own hang-ups and fully accept their feelings for each other. The writing is smooth, the emotions finely detailed and I just loved the story of these two men.

This might be my favorite book of the series so far.  Recommended.

ABOUT HARD TO LET GO: 

Five dishonored soldiers. Former Special Forces. One last mission. These are the men of Hard Ink. Beckett Murda hates to dwell on the past. But his investigation into the ambush that killed half his Special Forces team and ended his Army career gives him little choice. Just when his team learns how powerful their enemies are, hard-ass Beckett encounters his biggest complication yet—a seductive, feisty Katherine Rixey. 

A tough, stubborn prosecutor, Kat visits her brothers' Hard Ink Tattoo shop following a bad break-up—and finds herself staring down the barrel of a stranger's gun. Beckett is hard-bodied and sexy as hell, but he's also the most infuriating man ever. Worse, Kat's brothers are at war with the criminals her office is investigating. When Kat joins the fight, she lands straight in Beckett's sights . . . and in his arms. Not to mention their enemies' crosshairs. Now Beckett and Kat must set aside their differences to work together, because the only thing sweeter than justice is finding love and never letting go.
