Andy Payne decision to leave Jeb five yeas ago was a difficult one but a necessary one.  Now five years later he’s back and finds five years away did little to diminish the attraction he has for the small-town lawman.  Seeing Jeb Law again, Andy is afraid that once the secret of why he returned is revealed any possibility of being with Jeb will be taken way.

Jeb was more shocked by Andy’s returned then when he left him all those years ago.  As much as he says he will not let Andy back into his life he knows from the moment he set eyes on him that he would be fighting a losing battle.

Lawless is a really good story.  Aside from the smoldering love relationship between Andy and Jeb, there is also the beautiful relationship Andy has with sister.  Andy and Jeb were men with big hearts who cared about others and helped others even if it meant sacrificing their own happiness.  There’s a very delicate subject matter associated with the story that Flesa Black handled quite well.  It wasn’t the main focus of the story, but it does make an impact.  The rough, hot but very loving relationship between Jeb and Andy made Lawless an enjoyable read.
