Cover Reveal: Wicked Suspicion

Cover of Wicked Suspicion by Patti O'Shea

If you subscribe to my newsletter, you had the cover reveal in June. (You can subscribe on my website HERE, if you're interested.) Now it's time for the cover reveal everywhere else. Ta da! Wicked Suspicion!

The hero is Case "Lurch" Lundquist. He started hanging around in Wicked Obsession, began talking in Wicked Intention, and when he found out there was going to be a second arc of books, demanded his own story.

Of course, to this point, he hasn't been particularly helpful about what his story actually is. Characters.

I've been working on (and struggling with) a blurb for this book and I don't have much yet. Lurch and his heroine, however, have been providing all kinds of information about their pasts and about their relationship. Not the kind of stuff I need to write a blurb, but it will help when it's time to write the book.

I'm not sure this blurb is going to stick because I'm still fiddling with it. (I'm also writing this blog post early because I don't want to be distracted down the stretch for Wicked Persuasion.) What I have at this moment is:

Special Forces Sgt. Case “Lurch” Lundquist has his hands full. He’s undercover as a gunrunner and trying to avoid the rebels who are hunting him. But when his team’s op endangers the life of an American, he steps in to protect her.

Nyx Templeton can take care of herself—usually—but this is beyond her abilities. She’s not trusting some wannabe mercenary, though. Until she recognizes him from a picture she saw. He’s her brother’s best friend. She keeps quiet, knowing he’s Special Forces and that one wrong word could endanger his life and his mission.

Case is determined to remain focused, but Nyx is the most distracting woman he’s ever met. He loses the struggle when she asks him to cash in her V-card. Not just yes, but hell, yes!

But in the high-stakes world of arms dealing, every edge counts. When Nyx becomes a pawn to use against him, Case will do whatever it takes to keep the woman he loves safe.

Indulge in a protective Special Forces hero and a heroine who knows how to take care of herself, but can admit when she’s in over her head. This romantic suspense story features an experienced hero/inexperienced heroine who is keeping her identity as his best friend’s little sister a secret.

Lurch meets her in the epilogue of Wicked Persuasion and so will you if you read the book.
