Working as a Keno girl in a Vegas casino, Jordan Brenner took her bets off the sex table ages ago. And all the hot flyboys in the world won't make a differenceuntil Major Cole Jackson sends Jordan's thoughts and hormones into wicked places indeed.... What Jordan doesn't know is that Cole made a deal with his buddies: get some hot'n'heavy action from the Keno girl, or pay up! But Cole doesn't need an incentive. Every time he looks at Jordan's lips (or any part of her body, for that matter), he's immediately aware that something is upand it isn't his ante! It looks as if Cole won't lose just his shirt. He'll lose all control, too!

Hot Steamy Romance,

This review is from: Let It Ride (Harlequin Blaze) (Mass Market Paperback)
I saw this on the shelf and the cover was gorgeous, who can resist a hot looking guy on a Harley so had to pick it up then read the back learned the H was a flyboy, it got even better and that was even before I'd opened the book. I started reading and then didn't want to stop and read till my eyes closed, then got up early so I could finish it. The intimate scenes are really hot and steamy especially the one on the Harley and the story was great! Now I'd like to see a story of their buddies McCabe and Hughes.
It started with a bet, Cole saw her across the crowded Casino and knew he had to make a play for her. His buddies bet him he'd stay grounded, she was the ice princess and turned everyone down. I loved the way Jordan froze Cole out when he introduced himself. She told him she was a mother of five, of course he didn't believe her. The struggle to get close to Jordan was very well done and enjoyed the progress he made. I also enjoyed the roadblocks on their way to happiness and you'll just have to read, "Let It Ride" to find out how it all pans out. Great!!!!

Jillian Burns writes hot, sexy romances. I fell in love with Cole and enjoyed reading the story of his growing love for Jordan. The Las Vegas setting is a perfect backdrop for their gamble on love. If you enjoy hot romance, this is the book for you.

MAJ Cole Jackson has been to Hell and back. Shot down during combat in Iraq, he barely managed to drag his way back to safe territory. Now his dreams are ruined since his injuries were too severe to allow him to fly again. Spending a week in Vegas with his buddies is just what he needs before he has to report for new orders. He certainly didn't expect to make a bet to land an ice princess. Jordan Brenner has no interest in a fling with any of the flyboys frequenting the casino where she works, or in any men period. She followed her heart once before and ended up abandoned and alone. Her only plan now is to finish college, get a good job that can support her and her mother who suffers from Alzheimer's. Romance is not in the cards for this Keno girl but the scarred Harley-riding Major gets past all her defenses. While Cole only made the bet to prove his friends wrong, he finds himself wanting more than a one night stand with Jordan. Jordan and Cole are soon to discover that when hearts are on the table, the best bet is always to just Let It Ride. Cole has suffered so much since being shot down in Iraq and he is still reeling from the emotional upheaval. He's not quite sure what he wants anymore, but he knows love is one thing he doesn't want. This provides for some fascinating character study as he tries to come to terms with his losses, gains, and dreams and incorporate tender feelings into the mix. Jordan has her own struggles as well, not the least of which are a feeling of abandonment after her father, and then the man she thought she could marry, left her. She's hidden her heart behind a wall of ice to prevent hose feelings from ever hurting her again. So she is in quite a conflict over what to do about Cole, whom she is falling for at the same time she knows he will soon be leaving her as well. Watching these two overcome their fears to make peace with their lives and their hearts is a very compelling story. The passion between them is through the roof, though I admit I only skimmed some of the sex scenes due to how hot and steamy they were. Let It Ride has so much conflict and emotion packed in, that it really did a number on me, leaving me exhausted in a good way by the time I turned the final page. Just in the first few chapters alone, there is enough to build an entire novel around, and still more is added as we go along. From Cole's PTSD to Jordan's worries about her mother's battle with Alzheimer's, emotion is high. I have to say, I got a little teary-eyed at Jordan's graduation. There is a moment there that is especially poignant, showing us how deep their feelings run, even before they realize it themselves. With Let it Ride, Jillian Burns has written a wonderfully steamy, fast paced story that will keep you turning pages until the very end. What woman doesn't like an incredibly sexy man in uniform brought to his knees with the power of love? My only hope is that we have a very short wait until we get stories about Cole's cronies, McCabe, Hughes, and Grady © Kelley A. Hartsell, June 2009. All rights reserved.
