The danger and lies are more than she can handle.

Shea O’Bannon feels like a fifth wheel around her romantically paired-off friends, but there’s too much slime in the dating pool for her to bother with it. Then she sees her two-timing ex, Trevor Madero, serenading the mostly female crowd at a live-music bar. God knows trouble follows him around, but her desire for him rushes back in anyway. After he rescues her from a handsy drunk, temptation takes over.

Determined to prove he never stepped out on Shea, Trevor slides back into her life—and her heart—with forever in mind. Even with the wall he keeps up to protect her, his secret criminal life weighs heavy on his soul and drives a wedge between them.

When the truth comes out and his enemies target them both, they’ll have to fight for their love, or kiss it goodbye.

 

Tagline: Will the truth send her running, or will she fight for the man she loves?

 

EXCERPT 

Trevor cracked the billiard balls with a hard, steady strike of the cue and grinned as two strips landed in the corner pocket. As Radster grumbled a curse, Trevor circled the green-felt pool table in the back of Slayers and twitched his nose from the godawful stench of beer, body odor, and cigarette smoke. He narrowed his gaze and blocked out the blaring sound of thrash metal coming from the stereo as he took the shot. The cue ball hit the eleven red-striped ball at the perfect angle, but a solid followed the eleven home into the middle pocket.

“Too bad, Alto. Let a master show you how it’s done.” Radster chalked his cue from across the pool table and struck three solids into the pockets. “Beat that, man.”

Damn. Trevor eyed the one hundred dollars on the edge of the pool table that he’d laid down for the bet. Radster could kick anyone’s ass at pool, but once he got a few beers in him, his winning streak always turned south. Had he not drunk enough? Trevor glanced at their booth where a dozen empty bottles cluttered the tabletop.

K-Pic and his latest flavor of the month made out hot and heavy on the bench seat as though Trevor, Radster, and a dozen-plus pricks in leather and dog chains weren’t hanging out in the seedy bar. Some of the bikers were getting busy with their chicks, too, and giving everyone else a show.

He turned back to the game as Radster missed what should’ve been an easy shot.

“Aw, hell.” Radster ran his hand over his short hair.

“Perhaps you should have another beer?” Trevor examined the placement of the balls. “It might clear your head.”

“Screw you, dude.”

Trevor chuckled and aimed his cue. The hair on his nape prickled. He looked up and spotted Shea a few feet away near the long, scratched-up counter that stretched along the right side of the room. Shock sucker-punched him. He fell against the table and accidentally took his shot. The cue ball went wide and hit one of Radster’s balls that bounced off the edge. His pal laughed in triumph, but Trevor didn’t care. He stomped to Shea.

“What are you doing here?” He gripped the cue so hard his knuckles smarted. “How did you find me?”

Trevor’s Redemption is a steamy romantic suspense novella that follows the reunion of Shea O’Bannon and Trevor Madero, former lovers who parted ways after a misunderstanding - his words, not hers.  

When they meet again at a live-music bar, sparks fly, and old feelings resurface - We thank Gordy for some of that. A greasy little fella that just seems to pop up everywhere. Did I mention he works with Shea at the News station? A story there too.
So back to this instant sizzle out of the pan and definitely into the fire couple. 

Trevor wants to prove to Shea that he never cheated on her, and Shea wants to give him another chance. She is drawn to him on so many levels. One night. One night to feed, hopefully, sate that hunger.
We all know one night turns into two and two...
But things between them become complicated and people they thought they knew
They know nothing about
Can they overcome the obstacles and find their happily ever after?

This starts out pretty high heat and moves at a rapid pace
And just wait until things begin to unravel
WHOLLY GUACS! I did not see so many of the connections
Dad? Mentor? Friend? Betrayer? Boss? 
Are any of them who you really think they are?

The author did a great job of creating realistic and likable characters, who have flaws and struggles but also strengths and passions. It was easy to get attached to them.
The chemistry between Shea and Trevor is off the charts from the first save they are passion personified - hades level smexy. 
The plot is fast-paced, with twists and turns that keep the reader on the edge of their seat. 
The suspense element was well-developed, as the author portrays the gritty and violent world of organized crime and its consequences. 

I would recommend this novella to fans of romantic suspense who are looking for a quick and satisfying read. 
Trevor’s Redemption is a standalone story, but it can also be enjoyed as part of the Arresting Onyx series, which features other couples and characters from the same universe. 
I look forward to reading more books by Amber Daulton in the future.
