A 2015 Colorado Romance Writers Award of Excellence finalist in the Contemporary Series category
Privileged and ambitious attorney Teague Elliott is on the fast-track to getting everything he wants. All he has to do is stay on the straight and narrow and a high-profile political career is his for the taking. Until he wakes up naked with a Vegas showgirl…
Risa Clay has worked hard to put her showgirl past behind her and start fresh. But she owes ten grand to the wrong people, and to pay off her debt, she agrees to betray a stranger. . .but she ends up with a husband and guilty conscience.
Savvy and determined, she double-crosses the mob, goes on the run, and turns up on Teague’s doorstep armed with a dangerous secret, a marriage license, and the power to ruin his well-planed future. She thought using Teague again would be easy, but the passion that exploded between them in Vegas didn’t stay in Sin City and betrayal is the last thing on her mind.
Now Teague has to choose between the future he’s planned for all his life, or the one with Risa that he can’t turn away from.

Sweet Southern Betrayal is book 3 in the Boys Are Back In Town series by Robin Covington. Being a fan of the series, I was thrilled at the release of book 3. However, I had a reservation - how could the author get all of Teague's goodness in a mere 161 pages? It cannot be enough!
After reading the b ...more
