An alpha hero’s attraction to the one woman he can’t have could draw him into a killer’s snare in the sizzling new novel from New York Times bestselling author Lori Foster
Charismatic bar owner Rowdy Yates isn’t the kind of man women say no to. So when he approaches waitress Avery Mullins, he fully expects to get her number. However, the elusive beauty has her reasons for keeping her distance—including a past that might come back to haunt them both.
Avery spends her nights working for tips...and trying to forget the secret Rowdy is determined to unearth. But when history threatens to repeat itself, Avery grows to rely on Rowdy’s protective presence. As the sparks between them ignite, she will be forced to choose between the security she’s finally found…and the passion she’s always wanted.

Dear Reader,
I am so pleased to bring you Getting Rowdy, Rowdy Yates’s story! From the moment he showed up on the page in Run the Risk, the first book in my Love Undercover series, he’s been one of my all-time favorite characters. Rowdy is loyal through and through, tougher than nails, dangerous, dark and edgy—but still sexy and sweet with a lot of mystery surrounding him.
I loved how he protected his sister at all costs in Run the Risk. I equally loved how he befriended Alice, the troubled heroine of Bare It All. But mostly, I loved how Avery, the tough-talking waitress at the bar Rowdy now owns, drew him beyond mere sexual attraction—even when he tried to resist.
There’s something to be said for “broken wing” alphas.
Please let me know what you think of Rowdy and Avery. I sincerely hope you end up loving their story as much as I do!
All my best,
Getting Rowdy

When writing, I often ask for quick information on Facebook and Twitter. For all the many reader friends who so generously share their expertise in various fields, THANK YOU.
You are my favorite form of research!
For those extra-special reader friends who went above and beyond in supplying feedback:
To Jenna Scott,
Thank you for passing along my many law enforcement questions to your father, and please thank him for taking the time to answer. My favorite bit of feedback, when asking about the situation for my fictionalized criminals, was your dad’s very succinct,
“These guys are screwed.”
To Rhonda Copley,
A key feature of this story was understanding what happens to a child caught in the untenable situation of having bad parents who also happen to be criminals. I told you what I needed to happen, and you told me how it could work. I can’t thank you enough for your patience in helping me with the details.
And last, to Amy Miles-Bowman,
If not for your help, I’d have been trolling the bars for info. As a teetotaler. That would have been pretty uncomfortable for me. ::grin:: Your knowledge of owning and running a bar helped guide my Muse through a few plot points and I’ll be forever grateful.
