Ranger - Hardcover

by Onley James (Author)

Seven Symanski doesn't need anyone, least of all Enzo Conti. As one of Jericho's Boys, a vigilante crew that protects their neighborhood, Seven has a found family, a mission, and enough baggage to keep any relationship at arm's length. When a favor introduces him to Enzo, a charming criminal defense attorney and the son of Francesca Conti-the neighborhood's own Robin Hood-sparks fly. But Seven's never been good at sticking around, and a one-night stand seems like all they're destined for.

Enzo's life is built on rules, order, and keeping his family's shady dealings just this side of legal. But Seven is chaos incarnate, and Enzo has never wanted anyone more. When Seven ghosts him, Enzo takes matters into his own hands, offering a no-strings deal that backfires spectacularly. Enzo's mother intervenes with a plan to teach him a lesson, and suddenly, the boy he can't stop thinking about is right under his nose-and maddeningly out of reach.

But when Seven's mother is accused of embezzlement, the stakes turn deadly serious. The only one who can help is Enzo, even if it means going against his own powerful law firm. Together, they must unravel a dangerous conspiracy while navigating the growing tension between them.

As their worlds collide, trust is tested, lines are crossed, and Enzo and Seven discover that love doesn't always follow the rules. But with a little risk, they might just find a way to save the day-and each other.

Ranger is a lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers again, cozy dark romance with an HEA and no cliffhangers. It features an infuriatingly hot defense attorney with control issues and a fed-up, frustrated vigilante brat. As with any Onley book, you'll find dark humor, steamy sexy times, and gratuitous violence, but only against people who totally deserve it. This is book 4 in the Jericho's Boys series. Each book follows a different couple.
