My Best Shot by Gail Haris

With death circling me, this is my best shot.

Alexa

I thought my life was settling down, falling into a routine. Boy, was I ever wrong. It only took one disastrous selfie sent to the wrong number and I caught the attention of Vincent Goodman.

Worse, I can’t let dear, sweet Vin find out that the scandalous photo sent to him was originally intended for his notorious older brother, Tristan Goodman. I also can’t let my older brother, Sam, discover I’m falling in love with his boss whom he is convinced will only bring me trouble.

Trouble does come for me.

Death has always circled me, forcing me to choose between the safe arms of family, or the man who is far more dangerous than any monsters.

Vincent

Meeting Tristan at the café turned into more than getting a cup of coffee. I didn’t expect to receive a sinfully hot photo from an unknown number, and I sure didn’t expect it to be from the shy barista.

While we form a relationship, unfortunately, I also begin to connect her brother to crimes happening within the restaurant. My business partners, Tristan and Mark, want to punish her brother Sam to the extreme. But calling for her brother’s head would cause me to lose Alexa’s heart.

Sam might be involved in more trouble than I am, and he’s endangering Alexa as well. I’m determined to keep Alexa alive and make her mine. I’m just not sure how, but I’m going to give it my best shot.

2.5 Heart Review by Ashley

I was excited to see what Gail Haris had in store for the 'nice' Goodman brother after meeting him in the first book in the series. I'm not going to lie, I have mixed feelings about My Best Shot and most of that came in the second half of the book.

I liked Vin. He was just a nice guy. And the moment he laid eyes on Alexa he was smitten. By her beauty and then her charm. But Alexa has a colorful past that still haunts her. A past that she isn't proud of and is working hard to put behind her.

There was no denying the attraction between these two and their chemistry was downright combustible. When secrets come to light things change. Feelings were hurt and tempers flared. But it was when part of Alexa's shady past came back to haunt her that things really took a turn.

This got dark and twisted. Almost more so than I can stand. There were moments that were very uncomfortable for me to read and dare I say cringey....But underneath all of that, was this longing that Vin and Alexa had for one another that wouldn't quit. That they didn't want to let go of. I liked that they put in the work, fought like hell to get to a place where they could both let it go and move forward to the future they both wanted.
