Blurb:
Solving the case will be tricky. But keeping their hands off
each other will be impossible.
Detective Rick Canali’s life is perfect the way it is. He
loves his job with the Chico, CA police. He can get casual sex whenever he
wants it, and for family vibes, he has his brother Angelo’s large family of hotheaded
firefighters. He’s happy being a “perpetual bachelor.” But when he’s partnered
up with a too-attractive newbie detective, all the neat boxes in his life
threaten to collapse. Because the one thing this detective never saw
coming—falling in love.
John Rivera always wanted to be a detective. He’s determined
to succeed despite his ex trying to make his life hell and his new partner—the
gorgeous Rick Canali—making it clear he’s not wanted. As a former foster care
kid, he’s used to fighting his own battles and depending on no one.
When a firefighter dies under suspicious circumstances, Rick
and John’s new partnership is tested. It turns out, they’re a pretty good team.
But can they crack the case while dancing around their mutual attraction,
dodging John’s ex, and trying to keep the Canali firefighters safe from a
potential killer in the Cal Fire ranks?
HOT PURSUIT is a murder mystery wrapped in a romance with a
big scoop of suspense, hurt-comfort, evil ex, and more Canali family feels.
My review:
Uncle Ricky gets his happy! Rick Canali is different from
the others in his family. Younger than his older brother by fourteen years he
is not old enough to hang with his brothers and older than his nephews. Also he
is a cop in a family of firefighters.
Rick keeps his private life private until he comes out to his brother to
assist his nephew to do the same. It’s tough to be gay in a family of studly
Italians. In this story Rick gets a new partner who is openly gay and hits
every note for Rick. But he doesn’t mess around on the job. He’s more of a
hookup guy. New detective John Rivera transfers to homicide to get out of an
abusive relationship and finds that Rick may be just what he needs.
I really enjoyed this fast paced romantic suspense. A terrific
addition to the Hot Cannolis.
