A Night of Southern Comfort [Kindle Edition]

Robin Covington (Author)

Book Description

One night of passion...

Detective Jackson Cantrell never imagined that one night with an irresistible stranger would turn his life upside down. He’s spent years living in the shadows, but Dr. Michaela Roarke awakened a passion inside him he'd buried years ago.

He never expected the woman would turn out to be the governor's daughter...and his next assignment. The governor blackmails Jackson to secretly watch over Michaela and protect her from a stalker, or kiss his dream job at the FBI good-bye. Swearing to keep things strictly professional, Jackson moves in with Michaela. Too bad his heart can't keep the same promise.

But when the stalker's attacks quickly escalate beyond mere photographs to bodily harm, Jackson must race to save Michaela's life. And he’ll have to figure out how to keep her once she discovers his lie.

By Kimberly Kincaid

Format:Kindle Edition

This book is sexy, edgy and fast-paced. Jackson is a great hero with believable flaws, and Michaela is a perfect match for him. This book starts on "ten" and just keeps going. A quick, exciting read! Very hot.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun, hot read June 16, 2012

By Cassandra D. Corcoran

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

This was a great relax-and-take-your-mind-off-of-things book. I got sucked right in with the heat between Jackson and Michaela. I couldn't put A Night of Southern Comfort down because I had to know who the creepy stalker was and how Jackson and Michaela would get their happy ending. I was not disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally June 20, 2012

By Kelly Wolf

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

A NIGHT OF SOUTHERN COMFORT has it all. From the first page, I loved this book. The writing is so sharp and tight, flowing from one scene to the next seamlessly. Dialogue is believable and brings so much life to the characters.

I've also got to mention that this book is sexy. Damn sexy. It's a "send your hubby/significant other and the kids out, lock the doors and draw the curtains so you can read this book in one sitting" sexy.

My passion for romance novels is one that relies on engaging writing, stories and characters. It's hard to find an author who gets me this excited.

I'm excited. Not just excited, but thrilled. And impatient. I want more from this author.

Robin Covington, please write faster.
