Jerry Knight’s ex taught her one important lesson: never lose your heart to a man. They mess with your career and they screw with your sanity. These days, Jerry’s too busy saving the world to get ensnared in a relationship anyway, but there’s nothing wrong with a one-night stand. Unless of course you bump into a hit squad while doing the walk of shame…

Cole Gallagher’s ex taught him one important lesson: never lose your heart to a woman. They tear you up from the inside out. These days, Cole’s too busy trying to rescue Uncle Mike’s failing casino to consider another entanglement, at least until he crosses paths with a certain enigmatic brunette. Would a little one-night stand really be so dangerous?

Jerry doesn’t do rest and she doesn’t do relaxation, but when a stroke of bad luck leaves her in San Gallicano with nothing to do but Cole, she’s forced outside her comfort zone. Weeks of downtime. It’s her worst nightmare.

Fortunately, some new acquaintances decide to liven up the trip, and Jerry soon finds herself in a game of cat and mouse with the criminals of the Caribbean. Cole isn’t quite so happy about the situation, but who cares? He’s nothing more than a pretty face and a little light entertainment. Isn’t he?

Hard Luck is an action-packed romantic suspense novel with plenty of dark humour and a morally grey girl squad.
