Slick Ride by Mary Potter

Slick:
Hustling is in my DNA.
There isn’t a man or woman I can’t outwit, outsmart, or outplay.
They called me the King of New Orleans.
Until I got burned.
But I’m back to retake my throne.
And I’m ready to draw blood from the man who thinks he runs this city.
The sexy Irish bartender only complicates things.
My plan for revenge never included her.
Now her mysterious past could bring everything crumbling down around me.

Rain:
Being born into a mobster’s web of crime was like a noose around my neck.
My mother and I escaped to New Orleans, where the sultry breeze brought with it a second chance.
I wasn’t looking for love with a cocky biker, just a place to mix up my famous cocktails and make a buck or two.
I wanted a better life. A clean life. One free from the very thing we ran from.
But Slick was something I couldn’t resist…
Now I’m in too deep.
And there may not be a way out of it alive.
Can Slick knock his enemy off his throne? And at what cost?
Or will he take the biggest gamble of all with Rain Smoke?
