Nico met the love of his life when he was seventeen.
Immediately, he realizes that the gap in their ages is too significant to make a move on her until she’s legal in the eyes of the law. So he joins the United States Navy, killing time until he can come home to her again.
But a tragedy strikes while Georgia is alone and vulnerable, and with no other recourse, Georgia leaves, disappearing … leaves, disappearing without a trace.
After months of searching, he finds her, but quickly realizes that she needs the time to herself to work out her problems on her own.
So he leaves her be, knowing that if she ever felt anything for him, she’d come back home to him.
But it takes her years to return, and in those years, Nico changes, too.
He’s seen too much. Done too much. Lost too much.
He lives his life as a SWAT officer for KPD, goes through the motions of everyday life, but only as half a man. And not even the good half. The US military saw to that.
When the two finally come back together, one question remains. Will she love him as the man he is now, or leave him because he’s not the same man he used to be?

each time Nico was brought up i previous boos, he always came across as a bit of an asshole. and really he was waiting for the one and only woman for him to finally return. then one day Georgia finally returns, and there is a new side to him.
the chemistry between Nico and Georgia is hot. there is no doubt that these two are it for each other.
i just couldn’t put this one down. i had moments that i was on the verge of throwing my tablet, then had to just say no i need to know what is going to happen next.
I wanna man like Nico!!!! Talk about sweet, hot and would literally do anything for his woman. Swooning over here!!!!!!
Nico and Georgia were so meant for one another since they were both younger. But sadly life events happened and separated them. After years being apart and only talking here and there they finally get back together. And man they get back together with full force. But of course there’s some twist and turns to their reunion.
I loved this story. It’s one of my top favorites from this author. You have to go read it, you won’t be disappointed.
The first time I read this book was in 2016, since I have re-read it several times. Nico was mentioned in the Lani’s other books and he seems a little standoffish. When Georgia enters his life, his world is forever changed and his demeanor changes in a dynamic way. This was suspenseful, swoon worthy, and extremely enjoyable. I loved this story.
Nico and Georgia! Super cute and sexy.. Double Tap was a quick read romance with suspense material. Funny with relax family, sexy alphamale and good sense humour.
I did not know what to expect out of Nico’s story, he was always the tough, quiet and brooding swat member. So when Georgia came back into his life and changed everything I was pleasantly surprised. I am so in love with all the characters in this series, you can tell they are characters and stories that the author; Lani Lynn Vale loves so much and she passes that love onto her readers like me!!!
Double Tap by Lani Lynn Vale is the second book in her KPD Motorcycle Patrol series first which takes place further along the timeline than this series, HOWEVER, this series is off to a great start. I have come to expect sensational plot twists, the steamiest of sexy times, and the kind of insta-love that leaves you panting and I was NOT disappointed with Nico and Georgia’s story.
Nico has always had feelings for Georgia but due to the age difference, he waited and bided his time with her. Just when they thought their moment had come – tragedy struck. Now it’s years later and Georgia is back in Kilgore for the first time since her life changed irrevocably. Is now the time for Nico and georgia to rekindle the flames of their past or has too much happened in both of their lives to make that possible. Emotional, gritty, steamy and impactful. Loved it. Enjoy!
Nico and Georgia. Another great storyline. It was full of humor, intrigue, heartbreak and happiness. I absolutely love the relationship between these two. There is undeniable chemistry that helped these two to build a very strong and everlasting foundation to their relationship. This couple has such a unique relationship you cant help but love reading this one. It was gripping from beginning to end. Nico and Georgia give you quite the story to read. Another great couple in this series.
This is my second time in devouring Double Tap and Nico and Georgia’s story still makes me cry every time. A second chance romance like no other. Two people who had been torn apart by a tragedy for eight long years but still felt that soul deep love like they had never been apart. Their story is action packed, witty and a total tear jerker. Georgia is feisty, strong willed and passionate about the people that she loves. Nico is the quiet, broody one but when it comes to the love of his life he will do anything and everything. Their story will make you laugh, cry, shout and ultimately fall in love with two characters who will feel like you have known them for a life time by the end.
Excellent
I absolutely adored Nico and Georgia’s story! Love, Heartbreak, Devotion, and Patience Made For One Awesome Read!
Wow, Nico & Georgia’s book was so emotional. They were in love, but a tragic event in her life and his going into the Navy separated them for 8 years. Lani Lynn Vale did an amazing job of telling their story, one that I know I will read over and over because it is just that good.
Another great read by author Lani Lynn Vale! It was full of swoon, humor, intrigue, heartbreak and happiness. I liked it. A lot.
I have nothing but mad love for Nico and Georgia. Everything about them and their relationship felt so right, so natural… so real. I LOVED their shared history. The importance of family, their religious beliefs, their mutual love of soccer and their undeniable chemistry helped to build such a strong and everlasting foundation to their relationship. Nico and Georgia were dynamite (both in & out of the bedroom) and are easily one of my favorite Lani Lynn Vale couples!
Nico… Oh, good gods. Just the fact that he saved himself for Georgia… well, that automatically catapulted him into my Book Boyfriend Hall of Fame. The love he had for not only Georgia but his family and his team… *le sigh* His stamina, the way he took control and his protective nature was incredibly HOT. Heck, I found it panty-melting any time his voice rasped or his eyes flared or when he called Georgia beautiful. And their first time together… well, they both painted a sexy, intense and exciting picture (or maybe more along the lines of a sex tape) for me.
Georgia… She was such a fun and extremely likeable heroine! I really liked how comfortable she was in her own skin, how confident she was in her relationship with Nico and how she wasn’t afraid to kick a bunch of grown men’s butts out on the soccer field. I admired her strength when her and Nico were separated for a period of time (yea… that happens around the 75% mark) and totally loved her stubborn streak when trying to find out what really happened with Nico during a highly intense bust with him and his team. And the things that flew out of her mouth during a certain life-altering “event”… priceless.
The supporting cast of characters was once again wonderful. I love all of the distinctive personalities they bring to the table and am excited to hear more about them in the upcoming books!
I wasn’t a huge fan of some of the little time jumps in the story, the ones that started around that aforementioned 75% mark. I got a bit confused in spots, when it would say three hours later or a certain number of days later because I felt like I missed something that had just happened, so I’d go back to re-read that scene one more time. Not super-distracting but I like details, which you don’t necessarily get when time jumps take place.
Very much looking forward to reading Downy’s book, Bang Switch, next! Bring on the sexy, sweet, red headed, alpha Hero!!
This is another great read in this series. Lani Lynn Vale has become one of my must read authors! Trust me, you want to read these books.
Nico Pena met Georgia when she was 13 and he was 18. She is his sister’s best friend. He fell in love with her when she was 16, but she was too young. But once she turned 18, things heated up.
Nico was a Navy Seal, and now he is a member of the Swat team. This story starts right after the first book ended and he shot, and killed, Anita.
Georgia Valentine also loved Nico and was excited he felt the same way. They were supposed to go out, but tragedy struck and almost took her life. She’s been gone 8 years and now she’s back. Things get very heated between them.
“We fight. We yell. You throw shit and I glare at you. That’s just how we are. We don’t have the type of relationship where it’s all hearts and goddamned flowers. We have the type of relationship that’s real. We fight hard, and make up harder. And you need to get over your fucking snit, because I’m so fucking hot for you that I might not be nice when you really need it.”
Like with the other books, I loved the quotes at the start of each chapter.
“Jingle Bells, Twilight smells, Edward ran away. Jacob cries, Bella dies, Harry Potter all the way. Hey!”
I have said it before and I will say it again Lani Lynn Vale is a genius! If you are looking for a read that will have you laughing, crying, and just plain needing a cold shower then Lani Lynn Vale’s are just the key. Changing directions a little bit, we are getting guys that drive sexy muscle cars and not bikes; but don’t panic. These guys are still very Alpha male.
Nico and Georgia have known each other since they were teenagers. Both knowing there would be another for each of them. Life being ….well life took them in different directions. For Nico, the military and for Georgia, her brothers needed her after the death of their parents. Way more to that story but you have to find out for yourself. Just know that they rocked the hotness charts, I saw their story as a movie in my head and I freaking loved it.
I’m so looking forward to Downy’s book, these are characters that have been around since Boomtown, and I for one am so happy they are getting their own books. If you haven’t read any of Lani’s books you are truly missing out.
This book gutted me then put me back together. You will need Kleenex. Nico is amazing and Georgia is sassy and funny. Love this series.
If Lani Lynn Vale writes it, I’ll read it!!!!!!
Loved it!!! You can never go wrong buying Lani Lynn Vales books! You will not be able to put this book down!
