The Bribe by Willa Nash is now live!
Duke Evans didn't expect to interrupt a beautiful woman in a staring contest with a bison on his favorite hiking trail. He also didn't expect to see her again after rescuing her from the surly beast. As the sheriff in Calamity, Montana, he's had his fair share of surprises but none as pleasant as pulling over a shiny black car and finding his mysterious hiking companion behind the wheel.
Only, she lied to Duke. She gave him a name as fake as her hair color. According to her driver's license, her real name is Lucy Ross, the famous country music singer whose sudden disappearance has been a hot topic in the media over the past two weeks.
He's not sure why Lucy lied about her identity or why she's in Calamity. And she's not talking. Instead, she offers him a bribe to keep her secret.
But Duke doesn't want her money. He wants to know why this woman is on the run. And as long as the star shines on his badge, he's going to find out.

UNPUTDOWNABLE!!!
I was obsessed with this
story... O-B-S-E-S-S-E-D!!!
I think we all have those author's that seem to hit just what
we want in our characters. Willa Nash (Devney Perry) does that for me.
Duke Evans is just what I want from my leading men, besides the truly fabulous
name, Evans has a heart of gold. He's honest and hard-working, he's a man of
honor and integrity. He was sweet, oh so sweet with all the right words to melt
a country girls’ heart. He is totally the alpha male without coming off as a
controlling jerk. He wanted to be partners with Jade, not control her. I
appreciated that since I'm more into that in a man than men who control
everything. And Jade. Jade is strong. She might have run from her
problems but that doesn't make her weak. There's nothing weak about this woman.
She just needs to clear her mind and regroup. Luckily for her, she gets pulled
over by the charming and handsome Duke Evans.
This might be Willa Nash's debut novel but her alter ego,
Devney Perry is no stranger to a fantastically written story with characters
that I found myself rooting for. The writing was creative and fun. I spent a
good 50% of this story wondering what Jade's story was. The mystery and
suspense were completely engaging. I could not have pulled myself away if I
wanted too... which I most definitely did not want to do! I'm always happy to
visit Montana along with Devney Perry. I've never been west of Missouri, but
that doesn't hinder Perry's visualization via words. She paints the most
beautiful scenes and people with just her words. I'm so looking forward to The
Bluff!!
I
received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased
Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my
opinions are just that... my opinions.
Excerpt
Duke Evans was as addictive as hot stage lights and a silky, Southern
twang.
He’d almost kissed me. And I’d almost let him. I’d find a way to get
over this bribe issue if it meant indulging my crush on the local sheriff.
Sure, things would get awkward when I brought him a wad of cash. After all,
maybe the reason he’d almost kissed me was for the money.
The woman who hadn’t been kissed in a long, long time didn’t care.
“What’s your plan for the rest of the day?” Duke asked as he drove
toward the farmhouse. He rolled down the windows and the breeze tousled the
long strands of hair that had escaped his hat.
“Not much. I’ve been on a baking spree.”
“What’d you make?” he asked, his voice low and smooth.
Duke drove with one hand on the wheel while his other arm was propped on
the console between us. I hadn’t really noticed a man’s driving posture before,
but as with everything Duke, the should-have-been-mundane details jumped out at
me like fireworks. His entire demeanor shouted confidence. He was so relaxed in
his skin and sexy as hell. The man was driving and I was practically drooling.
He glanced over and raised an eyebrow. Right. He’d asked me a question.
I faced forward and unscrambled my brain. “Cookies. Cinnamon rolls.
Banana muffins.”
“You’ve been busy.”
“There’s not much else for me to do. Going from a hare’s speed to turtle
pace has been an adjustment. At this point, I’m searching for things to do.
Hence the running this morning.”
“My mom’s a teacher. She always says it takes her a couple of weeks
every summer to slow down and transition from kid wrangler to domestic
goddess.” He reached into the cupholder and plucked out a packet of gum. “Want
one?”
“Sure.” I unfolded the wrapper and popped the sweet mint stick into my
mouth as he did the same, then I opened my mouth to say something and . . . whoa.
We were rolling through a different neighborhood than the one I’d walked
through, but instead of staring at the homes and getting my bearings, my
attention was locked on the bob of Duke’s Adam’s apple and the flex of his
strong, square jaw.
I bet he had a talented tongue. My experience with men was relatively
limited—fame was a jealous lover and wanted nothing more than your undivided
attention—but if a man could chew gum like that, I bet his tongue knew its way
around a woman’s lips.
And other places.
