Big Sexy by Bliss Carter

Mercy Springs is a sweet, southern town in Georgia that is full of secrets, sass, laugh out loud moments and unique towns folk that you will love. In this first installment (Book 1) of the Mercy Springs Heroes Series, we meet our heroine Kresley and hero Cade, who don’t start things off on the right foot when meeting for the first time. But soon sparks fly between then, murder happens, and Cade is introduced to the crazy world of the Anderson girls and Grace.

Kresley Anderson – a fiery red head who can slay someone with her sarcastic mouth and woo them with her southern charm. Kresley is next to the oldest member of the Anderson sisters, a group of four amazing, feisty, southern women. Along with their best friend Grace, they deal with life one sarcastic moment at a time. Kresley works as a wedding planner in her family’s event planning business, which caters to both small town folks and the big city of Atlanta. Yet she hasn’t found her own version of Prince Charming to walk down the aisle toward. She isn’t really looking anyway. Her life is full of loving sisters, an amazing best friend, and work. She thought she had a full life, although boring, and didn’t think she was interested in a man sharing her time and energy. Then an ex-boyfriend dies at her business’ back door and life brings dark and dangerous looking Detective Cade Grantham to her rescue. But being a true red head, Kresley can’t give up her feisty nature and truly plans to give Cade a run for his money.

Detective Cade Grantham – aka Big Sexy, a nickname given to him by Kresley’s sisters, has moved to Mercy Springs to escape from the highly stressful life he was living as a law enforcement officer in the larger city of Nashville. He needed a change for his stress level, but wasn’t in the market to change his status on social media from single to in a relationship. Then Kresley abruptly came into his life and now he can’t think of anything but her, in his bed, and in his heart. But can Kresley and Cade overcome the obstacles this southern town and their own internal issues, have put in their way? And can Cade protect Kresley when it matters the most?
