Sometimes people come into a person’s life and make their heart skip a beat.
Those people are called cops.
Well, one cop in particular.
A SWAT officer for the Kilgore Police Department, to be specific.
The first time Avery Flynn saw Derek Roberts, she was photographing him for the first annual Kilgore Police Department SWAT calendar. He was leaned back in his squad car, shirtless, and giving her a smile that was completely between them. A smile that hinted at what he wanted to do to her later.
When she scrounges up the courage to ask him out after the photoshoot, he laughs in her face.
Well, screw you, too, Mr. February.
***
Derek Roberts never really paid attention to the photographer.
She was a mousy girl who dressed like a twelve-year-old girl. Her tight leggings, extra baggy Star Trek t-shirt denoting her a Klingon captain, and her surprisingly clean Chucks didn’t leave much of an impression.
Now, the outfit that she was in weeks after he rebuffed her? Yeah, now that caught his attention. Too bad that happens when he’s trying to save her from what’s sure to be death thanks to an unhinged native Texan who’s convinced she was the reason he lost his last chance at a million dollars.
When he tries to save her, she tells him she’d rather take a cattle prod to the forehead than go anywhere with him.
Challenge. Accepted.

Amy's 5 Star Review
Fries Before Guys was a great read it was sad at times but it was also heartwarming that despite tragedy love can prevail and I very much feel that way for Derek and Avery.
With Avery in such a dark place it feels like there is no end to her suffering and the only light in her life is Derek who truly takes her under his wing and tries to protect her from all the bad circumstances that surround her and with a slight age gap Derek does hes best to ignore the growing attraction for her but it becomes unavoidable with all the times hes watched Avery crumble whether it's through some bad news or bullying he always wants to be the one their for her even when she's so stubborn to accept he pulls in the ranks of the SWAT Team and makes her feel that depite losing her family there's a whole network of support surrounding her!
I think we all need a Derek to take away the burden that is life, Avery is a very lucky girl.
I love that Avery takes everything in her stride even when it seems she shouldn't and so many surprises are instore for her along the way some good and some bad.
This is book 2 The KPD SWAT Generation 2.0 and i thoroughly enjoyed this one just as much as Dax's story <3 Well done Lani!
