Jokes on You by Lani Lynn Vale
Series: KPD SWAT Generation 2.0 #6
Genres: Romantic Suspense

Booth Pena definitely didn’t make the smartest of decisions when he was a teenager.
At eighteen, he knocked a girl up and signed up for the military all in the same day—signing his life away in more ways than one. Fast forward six weeks and he’s in bootcamp learning that he’s going to be a father while also learning that not only is he going to be deployed, but it’s going to stay that way for a year.
There weren’t a lot of things that the baby’s mother and he saw eye to eye on after that. He honestly wasn’t sure why he even slept with her in the first place.
Okay, that last part is a lie. He knows exactly why he slept with her. Because the real woman he’s in love with, her twin sister, Dillan, won’t give him the time of day.
Five years later, and he still wants her.
Now he’s home for good, being the best father and police officer that he can be, and still he’s not good enough.

***

Dillan Davidsdottir hated Booth Pena. Immensely.
She hated him because he slept with her sister, then left. Granted, she knew that he hadn’t meant to leave like he did, unknowingly and unconsciously leaving his daughter behind, but that didn’t change the fact that he had.
Five years later, and she still dislikes him just as much now as she did when he chose the wrong sister to take to his bed.
Maybe if he’d chosen her, her heart wouldn’t be broken, and his wouldn’t be untouchable.
But when a SWAT officer sees his life flash before his eyes, and decides that enough is enough, what’s a girl to do?
Give in, that’s what.

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Oh my goodness where to begin. This book was so great! We have two sets of identical twins, I mean it doesn’t get any better than that. Booth is in love with Dillan and Bourne is in love with Delanie. They have been for years but one night Booth sleeps with Delanie and she ends up pregnant thus changing all of their lives.

Five years later and Booth is still head over heels in love with Dillan and Dillan loves Booth. Neither will act on their desire because he’s the father of her nephew and she’s his son’s aunt. I mean it doesn’t get crazier than that. One bad SWAT call and Booth has decided he is done waiting. Done with worrying about whether loving Dillan is right or wrong. She is his and he plans to have her.

The ride they takes us on as they become a couple is breath taking. The chemistry is so hot that room melts whenever they are in it. If only Dillan’s friend Kerrie and her father would get the memo. Those two were the worst.

I have to say that Bobo, the was awesome! Y’all what he does in this book was so great that I cringed and laughed out loud at the same time. Nope! I won’t tell you other than to say you have to read it.

Laric, Bobo’s handler, made an apperance in this book as well and I must say he intrigues me. I hope since we are seeing him a little more it means there is a book for him in the future. You just never know, he may end up being just one of those awesome secondary characters.

I can’t wait for Bourne and Delanie’s book now. I need it like yesterday. I know it is going to be just as awesome. I’m also curious as to if we will find out what happened with Asa’s migraines. I know that seems unimportant but I like when I have all the little details and Asa has stolen my heart.

five-stars

Jess
My life is pretty perfect—on paper. I had a string of platinum albums and number one songs all before I hit my twenty-fourth birthday. I’ve got fame and more money than I’ll ever be able to spend. What they say about fame is true: it's lonely up here at the top. The clichés I sing about are true too: all I want is someone who sees the real me and loves me despite all the drama. Then I meet a guy who seems to step right out of my fantasies—grumpy, husky single-dad cowboy—but he won’t even give me the time of day.

Grady

Nothing in my life has ever gone the way I planned. I unexpectedly became a father at seventeen. Before my daughter turned two her mom walked out on us both. The last thing I need is some glitter-soaked pop princess filming a music video on my land and putting stars in my daughter’s eyes. Everything I do, I do for my kid, but Jess makes me want something for myself. Can I risk another woman breaking our hearts?

Canyon “Blitz” Madsen didn’t believe in mercy. When the Redline Kings MC secretary learned one of his prospects was an undercover fed, he planned to seduce the agent’s innocent younger sister as revenge. But he ultimately decided it was a line he wouldn’t cross. 

Then he met Aubrey Cullen and knew leaving her alone wasn’t an option. One look at the sweet nanny, and Blitz was gone. Now caught between the secret that could destroy them and the fierce need to protect her, he’ll do anything to keep Aubrey safe—even working with the FBI brother he once wanted to destroy.

Soren “Rev” Halvorsen never lost control. Then a terrified blonde crashed into his bike on a dark road, and the Redline Kings captain decided she was his.
