WRECKED by Jeannine Colette
New Adult Contemporary Romance
BLURB
Take one sexy bartender. Add a badass
cop. A splash of sweet, that's me. One sour, that's him... and serve over ice.
That’s how you’ll get to my current situation.
You know the girl - the one who commands the scene, bottle of liquor in hand, pouring liquid fire into the willing throats of patrons as they let loose at the local bar?
That's me.
I may be known as the town party girl, but in reality I'm this close to my dream of opening my own bar - McConaugheys. Yes, it will be named after the acclaimed actor. What can I say? I’m a sucker for that sexy Texan.
Everything was going as planned until the night I had a few drinks and accepted a ride home from a friend. A misunderstanding leads to an arrest, and now I'm at the mercy of the one man I can’t stand, and trust me, the feeling is definitely mutual.
Adam Reingold is six-feet-tall and built like a stallion -- the man is the epitome of male. He also happens to be the town narc and hates my guts. There’s a story to our past and it's not a pretty one.
So, now, here I am, chained to him for the summer like a hardened criminal, doing whatever he tells me to do. Problem is, I can’t help but look at him when he’s not watching and wonder what our future could be like if things were different.
There are so many reasons why he’s all wrong for me. Even more reasons why I need to stay away from him.
It’s a cocktail of trouble. Best served shaken, not stirred.

Review by: Tatia
Wrecked was everything about Ms. Colette's writing that I love. Humorous, sweet, sexy; it had it all. I now understand the Matthew McConaughey obsession.
Leah has one goal. To buy the bar and succeed without anyone knowing. She knows what the town folks think of her, and she doesn't care. She okay with them thinking whatever they want. She knows what she's doing is what she's meant to. She just didn't plan on one big epic fail of a mistake. You have to watch out who you get into a car with.
Adam is the big, quiet, werewolf in town. Did I say werewolf? I meant town cop. He's one of the few. And he hates Leah. Or at least that's what she thinks. He walks into the bar all the time looking around and judging her. They used to be friends, even best friends some might say. Until their other best friend died. They haven't been anything but acquaintances since the day of the funeral.
This was a story that I found myself completely immersed in. It was one that took me away from the real world and let me forget about it all. Those are the kinds that I enjoy the most. Jeannine Colette has that gift.
