\"20935663\"<\/a>Book Blurb:<\/h2>\n

Wild child inner city cop Shannon Aguerri walks a dangerous line between her methods and justice. When the bosses lose their nerve, she is transferred to green pastures to play out the role of a routine village cop. In Fleetworth-Green she encounters signs of people and drug trafficking and homes in on serious millionaire criminals.<\/p>\n

As a loner she has attracted men but nothing has stuck. When she meets Spencer, the hunky and widowed Earl of Bloxington, there is an immediate rapport between them. Their social differences mean nothing to their passion and need. Already in the mix is an upper class female rival who has long plotted her way into the Earl’s bed. The jealousy is an evil shade of green and the anger is a violent scarlet.<\/p>\n

Often inhibited by a sense of duty and honour, Spencer is slow to reveal his feelings. When Shannon confronts him with the need to choose between her word and that of her rival, he does not immediately support her.<\/p>\n

All the same, when they are forced together to carry out a desperate rescue mission, their love is stronger than everything ranged against them.<\/p>\n

Review:<\/h2>\n

Shannon Aguerri is sent to the small village outside of London.\u00a0 On her first day she catches the Earl’s son and some of his friends drinking and riding a scooter she suspects doesn’t belong to them.\u00a0 Shannon takes the Earl’s son back to the manor and meets the very handsome and eligible Earl.\u00a0 Shannon immediately finds herself attracted to the overalls wearing Earl named Spencer.\u00a0 But,\u00a0 Spencer’s complex relationship with his deceased wife’s friend.\u00a0 While Shannon continues to police the small village she begins to discover that the village is hiding an underworld kind of crime that you’d find in the city.\u00a0 Along with her investigation into the crime she and Spencer’s relationship develops quickly and before they both know the new police woman has fallen for the widowed Earl.\u00a0 But, when things move quickly obstacles and trust aren’t always solved at the same time as love develops.\u00a0 When Shannon’s job and her relationship intersect in an unfriendly way they must learn to work together or to let each other go.<\/p>\n

I really enjoyed this novel.\u00a0 Shannon is feisty and has an answer for everything.\u00a0 Spencer is her perfect foil in being a posh stuffy English Earl.\u00a0 The love story between these two is very much a modern day fairy tale.\u00a0 The crime element in this story\u00a0is well done also.\u00a0 The two components of this story are very well woven together and very believable.\u00a0 In fact any woman would be jealous of Shannon finding her happiness with Spencer.\u00a0 I do think though that an American reading this story will have a bit of a challenge with Shannon’s English slang.\u00a0You get used to it but at first I thought her slang and retorts for everything were going to be too much for this story.\u00a0 But, like all good characters she changes with the story and definitely becomes one of the best parts of this story.\u00a0 Her comedic element is great when some of the criminal element gets heavy.\u00a0 Overall, I think this is a really worthwhile read and will suck you in once you get used to the slang and the culture.\u00a0 Emma Calin really did a great job with Shannon’s Law<\/em>.\u00a0 I look forward to reading something else from Emma.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
