Evan Grace’s Rescued is a hot, intense, emotional contemporary romance written in K. Bromberg’s Everyday Heroes Worlds project.
After spending the last few years globetrotting for her travel vlog, Gwen Malone has finally decided to come home to Sunnyville, California. Her plan was to spend time with her family and friends, and decide where to go next.
The last thing she expected was to be attracted to the tattooed police officer, Maverick Graves. At her welcome home party her sister and best friend warn her to stay away, that he’s a player and commitmentphobic. That was the plan except she saw him everywhere — sometimes with other women. That only solidified that Gwen needed to avoid him.
To Maverick, Gwen was untouchable. Yes, she was gorgeous, he was very interested, but she was his boss’s daughter and he wasn’t going to go there no matter how much he wanted to.
A simple favor for her dad and she was in a van with him driving along the coast. When an accident traps them together things get real, quick. When they’re finally rescued they can’t seem to stay apart, no matter how hard they try.
Things can change in an instant — will they both give in to what they really want? Or deny their true feelings, losing the other forever.
REVIEW
I am a huge fan of Evan Grace and could not wait for the opportunity to read this book. She has such a way of writing her characters that draw you in and keeps you turning the page. Gwen is the daughter of the police chief and comes back home for some R&R before her next assignment. When she spots Maverick at her dad's BBQ, she can't deny that he is hot, but there also seems to be more pulling her towards him.
Maverick is a local cop and wants no part of a relationship. He likes his no strings attached lifestyle and is no hurry to change that, but when he spots a beautiful woman at his boss's BBQ, he is drawn to her like he has never been drawn to anyone before. However, when he finds out that she is the Chief's daughter, be knows his attraction to her can never go anywhere. But is seems as though fate had other plans because the more they crossed each other's paths, the more the attraction to each other grows.
I loved this book. I loved how they tried to resist each other, but were truly just wasting their time denying what was right in front of them. I loved how Gwen made Maverick realize that he can have more if he just opens his heart. They were truly perfect for each other. I loved the banter and the constant back and forth between the characters. This book had it all and I can't wait to see what the author has in store for us next!!

EXCERPT
When I step into the bedroom, I find Gwen sticking a pair of black, sexy, stiletto heels in what she calls her ‘weekender bag.’
I wrap my arms around her from behind. “Whatcha got in the bag?”
“A hot little number to wear out tonight.” Gwen rubs her ass against my dick, which he appreciates because I immediately get hard. “Naughty boy, is that a nightstick in your pocket or are you happy to see me?”
I throw my head back, laughing harder than I think I ever have. She turns in my arms, wrapping her arms around my waist, smiling widely up at me. I grab her ass and thrust against her. “You like my big nightstick, don’t you?” I bite at her neck and she squeals. The doorbell interrupts us. “Fuck, it’s probably Troy.” I kiss her before leaving her to finish.
