She’s a brash deputy. He’s an undercover agent. When sparks start to fly, a murderer might be the death of them. Deputy Sheriff Tanya Trouble can’t help being pushy. In her dusty border town, being a polite cop could get her killed. When a fifteen-year-old girl is brutally raped and murdered, Tanya turns up the heat to track down the killer. She’s convinced one of the town’s white supremacists … supremacists killed the girl, but when she starts lining up suspects she can’t help but be sidetracked by a sexy new ranch hand.
Ryker Thompson is smart and more than a little cocky. The FBI agent figures that’s why he’s been sent undercover as an arrogant right-wing ranch hand to investigate a sophisticated human trafficking operation. But he never could’ve anticipated that a brash deputy sheriff would name him as the prime suspect in an ugly local murder. And he’s surprised by how arousing he finds her suspicion…
When Tanya discovers Ryker’s true identity she immediately tries to think of him as off-limits, but Ryker gives as good as he gets and soon enough hot sparks are flying between them.

TANYA THE TERRIBLE IS TAMED
I received this book for free and am giving my honest and voluntary review.
Tanya Trouble is the youngest of the three Trouble sisters. She is a deputy sheriff that believes in human rights for the Mexicans that cross the border. She finds a dead woman on the most bigoted man in the area ,and she believes she knows who the culprit is. FBI agent Thompson is undercover and on the case of a smuggling ring. Finding the culprit is a must. The story delves into underage rape and murder, drug and alcohol abuse, and a hatred for the willful deputy sheriff.
An amazing start for a new series! You know this is going to be a fun read just from the title Tanya Trouble, Deputy Sheriff.
Deputy Tanya Trouble is a strong, independent firecracker who does not hesitate to put men in their place. She doesn’t listen to anyone which often includes her father Sheriff Trouble. Definitely has anger issues. When a fifteen yo teenager is found raped, beaten and murdered on a ranch she is determined to bring the culprit to justice.
Ryker aka Burke is a dominant, alpha FBI agent who is undercover working his own case. He and Tanya end up butting heads more than once. Not long after he is also involved in the murder case. Ryker ends up turning Tanya’s world upside down!
“He had to break her stubborn, protective get-lost shell that she had constructed to keep men at bay.”
Thank you Hidden Gems and the author for a digital copy. Read and reviewed voluntarily and the opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own
This was a fun read. I really enjoyed the characters Tanya and Ryker along with Tanya’s family. I’m excited to get to know some of the other characters better in the rest of the series. This story does deal with a few hard topics, as in rape, murder, racism, but it is handled well and definitely plays a role but it’s not dwelled on. It all plays a part in the story line that is set up from the beginning of the book. The blurb gives you a good idea of what that is. Tanya has a smart mouth and is definitely outspoken. I liked her. Ryker is definitely an alpha male and he doesn’t like the way that Tanya handles certain things. He plans to put a stop to it and quickly. They go a couple rounds but he throws Tanya off from the get go so she doesn’t put up as much of a fight in that regards. But she is stubborn lol. The sex is explicit between them but it is not often. It happens later in the book as well. There is a lot of sexual tension between them and some foreplay scenes prior to. It is all blended well into the story and into the rest of the action. There are a few twists involved as well. I was entertained by the story and enjoyed reading it. I do wish that Tanya had been able to give Ryker a little bit better run for his money than she did. She is portrayed as this super tough chick but it felt like she fell a little fast in the face of Ryker. It didn’t bother me too much and didn’t really detract from the story. It was still great and I’m definitely looking forward to the next book in the series.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
Tanya Trouble, Deputy Sheriff of Cochise County, runs up against Ryker Thompson, FBI Agent undercover, and the fireworks begin. Tanya is a strong, independent woman and Ryker is a dominant alpha male. Their personalities clash and ignite, leaving Tanya feeling confused and out of her depth. In the midst of having to solve a murder and an FBI investigation of border corruption, finding such an explosive personal connection was the last thing Tanya and Ryker were prepared for.
This story is a constant roller coaster of emotions. It’s a journey that is fast paced and will definitely keep your attention. The characters are strong and interesting. The narrative flows effortlessly, full of action, intrigue, emotions, and HOT romance. Although this is the start of a series, it can be read as a standalone. I highly recommend you read this story!
Deputy Tanya Trouble has a particularly nasty murder to solve. A teenage girl gas been raped, beaten and dumped like so much rubbish. In a town so close the the border, it’s possible she is an illegal alien who has been killed by the traffickers or one of the racists common in town.
FBI Agent Ryker Thompson is undercover in the border town trying to find the ringleader of a huge corruption scandal. Staying in character proves difficult when his temper is so badly stretched by the scum he is forced to work with and the infuriating Deputy Trouble.
A very exciting and sexy story that introduces us to a fabulous family. Just how our extremely arrogant hero solves his case we never do find out , but our brave but impulsive heroine does her job well.
I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
