Rocky Road by Becky Wade book cover

FBI Agent Jude Camden handles every aspect of his job with by-the-book professionalism. There’s no reason why his latest assignment—which calls for him to pose as the boyfriend of perfumer Gemma Clare—should be any different.

Except Gemma is different. She’s creative, bold, and feisty. And as soon as she meets Jude, she wants to loosen him up, wrinkle his perfect shirts, and test every ounce of his towering self-control.

The FBI has an ironclad rule against romances between those working together on operations. Jude’s never met a rule he didn’t respect. But adhering to this one is going to be tough because, as time goes by, he finds Gemma more and more irresistible.

Buckle up! It’s going to be a rocky road.

Escape to Maine for this swoon-worthy “fake romance”! Banter, humor, perfume, and a mystery from the past intertwine in this sweet Sons of Scandal love story.

 

My Thoughts

Man, oh, man. I love a good Becky Wade romance, and Rocky Road was the sweet read I needed.

Wade includes plenty of swoon, but she also doesn’t skimp on the banter. I loved seeing Gemma ruffle Jude’s feathers, and her playful attitude is a perfect contrast to Jude’s serious personality.

The suspense element was a nice addition. If you have trouble with romantic suspense, don’t worry. The storyline is light enough that this is still a feel-good story, but it also grabs your attention and makes you wonder what’s going to happen next.

I also loved the hints for Max’s book and getting to see Remy and Jeremiah again.

Overall, Rocky Road was a sweet romance with plenty of humorous moments, making it a perfect way to unwind at the end of a long day.
