Amy's ARC Review of Too Hot To Handle Zero to 60 by Susan Arden 3.5 stars





What began in a grueling game of cat-n-mouse with her step-uncle, has Margo on the move. In Never Say Never (prequel and included in Too Hot), she's on the run, does a body slide right into the arms of a Rod McLemore, a recently discharged Marine. Outside of a crazy fling, there's zero room in her life for men. Handsome distractions are dangerous to her health. 

From working a fence line and dealing with cattle, Rod is thrust back into the line of duty. And he promptly fails. He crosses the line in a no-brainer mission: go and get the girl. On no hands is he prepared for Margo or her smart-mouth, right hook, and cargo to hide. 

Together Margo and Rod are as volatile as flint and gunpowder. Bordering on taboo, their raw attraction is a recipe for disaster. Especially when the stakes are raised. 

Their stormy love affair forces them over the edge and out of their comfort zones as they wrangle in-laws, Mother Nature, and a slick con man. A regular trial by fire. But a battle worth fighting means taking a stand and they'll do whatever it takes to stay together. Even if it means they have to lie, steal, cheat. 
Or kill.











Let me begin by telling you that I have not read any of the other books in this series. I don’t know if this makes a difference or not but at times I didn’t know what was going on because I love back story. Please keep that in mind with my review. 

Margo is a barrel racer coming home for her sisters wedding. She is a spitfire filled with spunk and a mind of her own. Putting on a tough face is exactly how she makes her way. She needs no one and wants no one. She is on the run and needs to steer clear of anything that will hinder that. Her uncle has threatened her one time too many. 

Rod is heading somewhat unwillingly to get his cousin’s soon to be sister in law from the airport. An ex marine should be able to handle this tiny little assignment right? Not so much with Margo. Having been tainted by her uncles evil she believes all men are from hell. Rod intends on showing her just how untrue that is. 

There is drama in this read but for me it wasn’t what I would have chosen as my favorite. However keep in mind if you love tough and alpha male ranchers then this book is for you. If you love horses and tough women then this book is for you. Again it was not a bad read but I like my guys a little more on the wrong side of the law and wearing different boots. Please though click it up and take a chance especially if you like this genre. Let me know what you think! I love to see what other readers say. That is what makes our world of reading a wonderful place!

Thank you for the ARC Susan. Review to post to Ramblings From Beneath The Sheets.
