Fries Before Guys

SWAT Generation 2.0, Book 2

By: Lani Lynn Vale

Narrated by: Lucy Rivers, Tim Paige

Sometimes people come into a person’s life and make their heart skip a beat.

Those people are called cops.

Well, one cop in particular.

A SWAT officer for the Kilgore Police Department, to be specific.

The first time Avery Flynn saw Derek Roberts, she was photographing him for the first annual Kilgore Police Department SWAT calendar. He was leaned back in his squad car, shirtless, and giving her a smile that was completely between them. A smile that hinted at what he wanted to do to her later.

When she scrounges up the courage to ask him out after the photoshoot, he laughs in her face.

Well, screw you, too, Mr. February.

Derek Roberts never really paid attention to the photographer.

She was a mousy girl who dressed like a 12-year-old girl. Her tight leggings, extra-baggy Star Trek t-shirt denoting her a Klingon captain, and her surprisingly clean Chucks didn’t leave much of an impression.

Now, the outfit that she was in weeks after he rebuffed her? Yeah, now that caught his attention.

Too bad that happens when he’s trying to save her from what’s sure to be death thanks to an unhinged native Texan who’s convinced she was the reason he lost his last chance at a million dollars.

When he tries to save her, she tells him she’d rather take a cattle prod to the forehead than go anywhere with him.

Challenge. Accepted.

The amazing Lani Lynn Vale drop another wonderful read! Avery is the strongest character I've never read, she survived a lot of heartache in her life and with Derek by her side she'll continue to be on top. Derek being scared of a young Avery is funny, he tried to stay away but that fail fast. Even though this is the second generation, I love to see or hear from the originals!

I LOVED IT!

Loved the story! As with most of Lani Lynn Vale’s books, there was tragedy mixed with some frustration while our main characters were figuring things out.

I love to see how the bad guys get what’s coming to them, however my bloodthirsty self wishes there would have been more of that!

And of course we had our sweet Happily Ever After!

Recommended audiobook!

Meh

Story wasn’t horrible but it wasn’t great either. The story was just lacking. And frankly I felt bad for Avery. I felt like the author really hated this character Because of all the crap this character had to deal with.

3.75 STARS

First book by this author and not at all what I was expecting. I teared up in the beginning and felt horrible for Avery. The rest of the book was a train wreck you couldn't look away from. Anything and everything happened to that poor girl! I wish we would've had more about the way the h/H's relationship developed without so many time jumps. Overall I enjoyed the book and I was invested in the characters.

Narration was 5 stars for both narrators! This was my first Tim Paige book and he did not disappoint. Both were able to pull my right in and make me feel all the emotions.

good for the most part.

The story was good. Not a fan of the teenage age part but good story of you take that part out.
