Unsteady

“There’s parts of her that were completely untouched until my dirty hands pulled her in, marking her in all the ways she needed.” 

Desperate to find a new mechanic, the last thing Reddington expects is a woman to show up, let alone one with a sinful body, sharp tongue, and the inability to just do her job and not give him lip. 
He can’t deny he’s hoping to catch a view of her bent over a hood, but there’s not a chance in hell that’s going to happen. As much as Red wants to take her for a test drive, he knows he needs to keep his priorities straight. 

“Have you heard of Newton’s third law of motion? Every action has an equal and opposite reaction? It all goes back to one saying. You’re able to choose but you’re never free from the consequences of your actions. There’s no reset, there’s no takeback, there’s an action, and an outcome.” 

After fleeing from an abusive ex, Lennon hopes the garage bays of Walker Automotive will keep her dark secrets hidden from her past. What she doesn’t expect is a sexy, brooding, tattooed boss with an attitude. 
Neither of them can ignore their attraction as they struggle to make sense of their connection. And what happens next will no doubt be unsteady. 

“I’m not going to let him hurt you anymore, Lenny. I won’t let him anywhere near you.”

***************

Lenny has had a rough life but she's not about to let someone beat her down. When she is given the chance to start over it's not going to be easy - she didn't pick a profession women are taken seriously in but she will prove herself. Red has been keeping to himself even know half the young girls in his town are constantly throwing themselves at him. When Lenny walks in his shop it's the first time in two years he's had a reaction to a woman. It's a sticky situation and Red tends to be a bit grumpy on most days. When these two actually hit the sheets it's a sexual explosion. Danger was lurking and they let their guard down. When the smoke clears hopefully they can keep building on what they started. Some hot steamy sec scenes. Fantastic ending.
