Book Blurb: Sequel to A Matter of Time Vol. 1 and 2

Jory Harcourt doesn't have to go looking for trouble. Wherever he goes, it seems to find him—particularly when his partner, Sam Kage, is working undercover on a federal task force.

After the recession forces him to close his business, Jory goes to work as a matchmaker and event planner. From there, it's only a matter of time before his big mouth and up-front attitude make him the rope in a tug-of-war between a trust fund baby and a drug-smuggling criminal. Then, as if that situation weren't delicate enough, Jory's undercover lover shows up working for the smuggler.

Between the men who want him and the men who just want him dead, Chicago is getting a little crowded for Jory, so on the advice of his brother, his boyfriend, and the FBI task force, he heads for Hawaii... where a serious accident threatens his quality of life. Can Sam and Jory keep the faith and prove that their relationship really is bulletproof?

Review:  I had read A Matter of Time, Vol. 1 and 2 for Night Owl Reviews and my reviews can be found there and I really liked them.  Yes, Bulletproof is another story about how trouble seems to follow Jory without him looking for it, but it is not stale, repetitive or old.  There are so many ways that this type of story can get old (and I have read a couple of series that I wound up quitting reading because they started sounding entirely too repetitive), but Ms. Calmes keeps the writing fresh and Jory is lovable as opposed to being annoying due to his personality.  Part of it is the characters, part of it is the humor sprinkled throughout, and part of it is that all of it is balanced with other emotions too.

Another great read from Mary Calmes.
