BRASH is the continuing saga of the Cavanaugh Brothers from the Texas Town of Black River. The three brothers, Cole, James and Deacon are grieving for their sister, Cass, murdered 12 years ago. The killer, never found. Cole Cavanaugh returns from his latest fight, as a Champion in Ultimate Fighting, to confront painful memories,and continue searching with his brothers for any lead to the killer of their sister.

Cole Cavanaugh, handsome,sexy, tatted, hot, Stetson- wearing fighter is irresistible. ( Did I mention hot and sexy? ) He is a loner and likes it that way. He lives in a hotel, never plans to settle or put roots down. Not like his brothers who fell in love after finding their perfect mates. Cole does not believe in love, and laughs at James and Deacon. He is a very successful fighter. He takes out every contender, and wins by picturing each opponent as the one who took his twin sister from him, using his anger to crush and win every fight. He is haunted, will not be free until he discovers the villain.

Dr. Grace Hunter is a beautiful, smart, hometown gal that is a Veterinarian, and is looking for a steady relationship, never a bad boy. It's Black River forever. Her father, now in a nursing facility suffering from Dementia was the sheriff at the time of the murder. Grace has asked Cole to go through the boxes of files her father stored in the garage concerning the investigation, and working together perhaps they could gather some clues that were overlooked. Its a rocky beginning for Grace and Cole but a slow but potent chemistry begins. The foreplay between Cole and Grace is playful but heads in the direction of an eventual sexual explosion. Cole is snarky, cocky, funny and knows how to rile Grace up. Grace is kind and sweet but is able to match wits with him. She tells it like it is and is not a push over. They are adorable to watch, and extremely funny together.

The interactions between the brothers is humorous and loved filled. I love Belle the Beagle, maybe not as much as I love Cole though. If you like a cliffhanger BRASH by Laura Wright is made to order for you. Get in line to see what is next with the Cavanaugh Boys but quit pushing I was in line first. Great read!
