SLEIGHT OF HAND by Marie James

ABOUT THE BOOK


Gaige Ward, acquisition expert for Blackbridge Security, obtains things for the team.

As far as your mind can take you is how far he can go.

If it exists, he can get his hands on it.

If he can’t, he’ll find someone who can.

He never fails.

As with all things when growing in popularity, Blackbridge is also taking on scrutiny.

His boss, in an attempt to counter being called misogynistic and discriminatory against women, needs a female with the ability to handle the same tasks his guys can.

Leighton Redmond fits the bill perfectly.

Only, according to her she isn’t for sale, for employment or otherwise. 

Gaige loves a challenge but has NEVER had to fight so hard to procure something for his boss.

Maybe next time he’ll think twice before having a one-night stand the day before a very important business meeting…

Meet Marie James


Let's see...where to begin...

I'm inching up on the BIG 4-0. The gray hairs are doubling what seems like daily, and the wrinkles and laugh lines are more pronounced than ever.

I have an amazing husband (Married just over 15 years.)

We have two boys we're doing our best to raise as respectful gentleman.

I have a master's degree in criminal justice which I used to work as a juvenile probation office until deciding to write full-time in June of 2019. So that means there's usually always some criminal/law element to my novels.

If I'm not writing; I'm reading.

My favorite genres recently are bully/reverse harem and enemies to lovers. Maybe I'm reliving my traumatic teen years through the girls who actually end up with the boys. (Not that I would change my history since it's gotten me exactly where I need to be!)

I love coffee. I miss carbs. Music is LIFE. I try not to be too serious.

This was a really different book than what we have seen in the series before. Mostly because there are no bad guys and no big mystery or client who needs protection. One reason is that it stars Gaige who is the businesses lawyer, and it pairs him to work with Leighton, who is hired to recruit women employees for Blackridge as Deacon wants to start an all female sector of the company.

It was a really fun story and I adored Leighton. She is a real go getter and one who is one tough woman and she has had to be with the family she was born into. I loved her independent spirit and strength. Honestly I thought she stole the book from Gaige.

 I loved this book so much. Largely I loved how Leighton handled Gaige and even Deacon and the rest of the guys. I absolutely adored her and I loved that when life knocked her down, she just got back up and worked to make this amazing life for herself.

There were times I wanted to throw my Kindle at Gaige but I also loved this story so much. I loved that we get to see Gaige as this big jerk but also that he really grows up in this story and sees what a gem Leighton is.
