I didn't think I had read anything from Sophie Jordan before, but now I'm pretty sure she's written a series about dragon shifters and I've read at least two of those books. I think...
Anyway, we're not here to talk about those. I've finished the fourth installment of Devil's Rock - which incidentally were my first read of the series. It's intrigued me enough that I'll probably go back and listen to the previous ones, as well - I do like the sound of the first one.
So, this one is about Piper - a young woman from a family of criminals, jailed or dead ones. Everyone in their small town thinks she's trash like the rest of the Walsh-clan, which makes caring for her younger sister very hard, since no one except the slimy strip club-manager wants to hire her. The last thing she needs is getting involved with the town's sexiest lawman, Hale. Hale, who is golden-boy turned sheriff, who also judges her by her blood. If only she didn't get his blood boiling.
This book is mostly centered around Piper and Hale and mostly Piper's struggles trying to care for her sister. She's a tough one and rolls with the punches. It hurt seeing how she had to play the dumb girl to get people to back off, but I cheered when she sassed back. Hale is kind of an asshole at first - judging people by their families background is just plain wrong and douchy. But, it does happen, unfortunately.
I did love the way Hale and Piper just... fit. They just came together and even though it was a bit of a struggle at times, their lives just went together like bread and butter. The whole background story with her brother and the crime he was incarcerated for was a good way to move the story forward and prepare for the next installment.
