Wrong Turn, Right Direction

Kindle Edition, 350 pages
Published March 21st 2017 by Montlake Romance
Synopsis:
Tamika Cleary takes a wrong turn up a one-way street—and straight into Thibault Delacroix’s leg as he steps into the road. But Mika’s in a hurry, and she certainly doesn’t have time for a guy who can’t even look both ways before crossing, even if he does have a cute face, a body to die for, and the darkest, thickest eyelashes she’s ever seen.
Unfortunately for Mika, fate has other ideas. When she’s threatened by her employer, a Russian mafia boss known as “The Thief”, she’s forced to accept Thibault’s help. As the co-owner of the Bourbon Street Boys security firm, he believes he can keep her safe. But Mika has a whole load of trust issues—and the pushier Thibault is about helping, the more stubbornly she tries to resist.
Mika may have taken a wrong turn the day they met, but will she finally let someone steer her in the right direction?

4.5 stars
This is the fourth book in the Bourbon Street Boys series by Elle Casey.
Is this book over the top? Yep. But even though it is a fantastical situation, you can’t help but love it. This book features the Bourbon Boy Thibault, co-owner of the securities firm where this series is set.
Here we have a convergence of happenstance. Thibault decides to go to a coffee shop across town and steps into traffic without looking. Mika is in labor and doesn’t know it and drives down the street in front of said coffee shop going the wrong way on a one way street. Of course, their lives crash into one another. Thibault delivers Mika’s baby and it is grumbling and clashing all the way through the book.
I love how the author always puts most of the background characters into the forefront from time to time. It makes it all feel like an unorthodox family made up of this unlikely group.
I have to admit that the attitude of Mika was so strong that I wondered if she would even relent and let herself fall in love with Thibault. It was literally like watching a trainwreck over and over. I totally wish there were more books in this series since I loved all of then so much. I am sad it is over.
Overall it is a great read. And a wonderful series!
Loved so much about it. If you like romantic suspense mysteries, definitely check this one out. You won’t be disappointed.
