Bad Situation
by Brynne Asher
Blurb:
A group of women walk into a bar…
Sounds like the start of a crude joke, right? Yeah, well, the joke's on me because I'm investigating the gorgeous one in the heels with the great ass. Jenson Montgomery.
Now I'm treading that area between right and wrong, good and bad, where sin and honor meld to become gray. Not that I haven't been here before. Hell, I’ve made my career in the gray. I never hesitate going to battle when my gut tells me I'm right. And right now, my gut—among other things—is speaking loud and clear about Jen Montgomery.
She’s in a bad situation. Not just bad—deep and black and ugly.
And I’m about to make it worse. She just doesn’t know it yet.

Every time I think of the title of this book I get the song Bad Reputation by Taylor Swift stuck in my head, only with the words switched to Bad Situation. LOL! "Bad Situation, Bad Situation, Ooh, you and me would be a bad situation, ah! And I heard about you, ooh! You like the bad ones too!"
Anyway, I digress... Bad Situation is a good book! It is the start of a brand new series, The Montgomerys. This book is the story of Jen, who is Cam Montgomery from Athica Lane's sister, and Elijah/Eli Petit, who we met briefly in Paths. Jen is the CFO of Montgomery Industries, poised to take over as CEO for her father when he retires. She is a workaholic, with hardly any social life outside of work. But one night when her girlfriends drag her out, she meets Eli at a bar. They share a sexy dance but it ends there and Jen leaves. Eli is an FBI agent who just moved to Dallas. He just finished up a several year long stint of undercover work and is ready to have a real life and settle down. When he meets Jen, he feels an immediate connection. The only problem is he is part of an investigation of her and her company for insider trading. Their story and how they fall in love continues from there, but I don't want to give too much away.
I loved Eli and Jen. They had a strong connection from the start. Jen is a boss lady. She is strong, but not bitchy. She has it all on the outside, but men are afraid of her power and money, so she is lonely. Eli was pretty perfect. Sexy, protective, and not intimidated by Jen. They were both open to love and there is no pushing away. I loved the way their relationship developed and how everything worked out. They were great together. They managed to overcome a "bad situation" and come out on top, strong together. This book was sexy and sweet with some funny moments and some suspense. I loved the strong family theme and the Texas setting. I love the Montgomery family, catching up with Paige and Cam, and I can't wait for more from this series! The next book is going to be so good!
Overall, I really enjoyed Eli and Jen's journey to love! This is a great start to a new series and I can't wait for more from Ms. Asher!
