The Long Shot is a story about moving forward into
future and allowing love to take control. Cade is a control freak in every
sense of the word and Reece is a strong, "take nothing from anyone"
woman with a mysterious past. After Cade finds out that Reece has PTSD
symptoms, he is on a mission to save her, but the table turns when Reece shows
Cade that it is okay to lose a little control and to let life happen. So who do
you think will fall first? Well let's
find out…………………………
This story started
out fairly slow for me. I liked Reece and Cade together, but the relationship
took so long to happen and when it did happened, it most certainly
happened. Reece was a waitress at The Conquistador's, a restaurant that Cade
owns along with his two best friends and navy seal buddies. The restaurant needs a new cook and a new
menu to drive their food sales and in comes Reece. She does not want anyone to know that she is
a "foofoo" chef from New York, so she takes the job as a waitress
instead. Cade and Reece bump heads over
the flow of the restaurant and the menu items which in turn accounts for some
sexual tension. I read the last installment in this series titled, The Hot Shot, and I really liked the book and
gave it four stars to be exact, but this was a little underwhelming. I expected more chemistry and I was patiently
waiting for the shoe to drop and I had to wait till the end to get it. However, when it finally decide to drop, it
knocked me down because the ending was wonderful.
I liked the fact
that the author gave these characters a heart-breaking back story and they
shared that "traumatic" past which, in turn, brought them closer
together. As I mentioned before, the
story was a little underwhelming, but the story was solid with a plot, good
side characters, and a good ending to a series.
Rating: 3.5 ⭐⭐⭐½
