Taming
Johnny

Blurb
He's got the temperament of a lion,
and she's just the one to tame him.
Police
records clerk Emma Beaumont has always played it safe, never taking many risks.
Quiet, shy, and a little overweight, she's convinced herself that she's
comfortable with the way her life is. That is until she lays eyes on incredibly
sexy Lieutenant Johnny Street. But she's never met anyone with such a terrible
attitude. He's a jerk. Everyone thinks so.
Little by
little, Emma is forced to uncover a stronger, spunkier part of herself, one
that isn't afraid to stand up to him. As she gets to know him, she starts
seeing glimpses of a very different man. A man who has known great heartache,
and as it turns out, has good reason for embracing such bitterness. Behind his
sharp tongue and harsh demeanor, lies a young man who's desperately afraid of
losing what's left of himself.
As Emma's
intense desire for Johnny turns to love, she will have to ask herself how far
she'll go to chip away at his frosty heart. And at what cost.

My Review:
Well, it's official, I love Johnny !! I've always had a thing for the strong silent type, the kind that looks so confident on the outside but inside has a heart of gold and a bruised soul. He keeps his secrets and pain locked inside but appears the ever brooding alpha male on the surface. Then of course there's the fact that he's a cop....just does it for me :)
I also really took a liking to Emma. She's so quiet and shy but has a secret beauty about her. She's the total opposite of the gruff hero but that's exactly what makes them perfect for each other !
Everyday events and real-life personal struggles add depth to this 100+ page novella, which is the ideally perfect length to read in one sitting, definitely my favorite! I can't wait to add more by this fantastic author to my TBR pile.
I recommend you run out and get this one right away !! Kudos to you Ms. Newell!!
