This is my first book from Myra Scott. I was pleasantly surprised.
Casey is a firefighter who has scars on his face from a time when he saved a girl from a fire. His boss makes him take some time off since he lives for his job, always working double shifts and never taking time off. When he goes to Vegas, he meets Luke and they spend the night together.
It doesn't end there though, as Luke finds him online and they start talking a lot. Luke has to work hard to convince Casey that he is worth pursuing. Casey is definitely a mystery to Luke, but one that Luke wants to solve. Luke has only ever had one night stands before, so pursuing Casey like this goes against his inherent nature.
Luke is one of the people who runs the casino. He is busy trying to drum up more publicity for the casino and contacts a famous band to play a charity event. And he wants Casey as his date for the event. Luke does convince Casey to attend. And lucky for many in attendance, Casey acts as a hero that night. But, the concert sparks off one big mystery for Luke, and if Luke can't solve it in time, he will be out of a job.
I definitely enjoyed this story a lot. Casey is such a loveable guy. He has no idea what his self worth is. All he wants to do is work hard and be someone who is worth being proud of. He has no desire to work on his own happiness. All he sees when he looks at himself is that scar, which he thinks makes him completely unlovable. Luke is wonderful. He is relentless in trying to show Casey his worth.
This series is based on characters from the Sin City Sentries series. I haven't read them, and it isn't necessary to have read them to enjoy this book. But, I do want to go and read them now. And I will definitely be checking out the other books that come later in this series.
***The Hotshot kicks off the new Vegas Heat series. If you like wounded heroes, you’ll love Casey and Luke’s story. It can be read as a standalone and features a HEA.***
