Vodka and Handcuffs is a fast paced story about a police office with a bad partner and the Bartender at Mary’s Burgers. Both are men of color and have had their battles in life, and both have their own stories.
Marlon, a police officer, is out but not. His chief knows, his ex-partner and family know, but none of the other officers or his new, arrogant, mean partner know. One night he wanted to escape his partner, so instead of hanging out at the usual place with the other cops he ended up at Mary’s, and after two many beers he wakes up in the bed of the bartender. Marlon isn’t one for relationships, so part of him wants to slip out the other says yes to a date.
Vahin is the head bartender at Mary’s and loves his job and family there. He is pretty much a man whore but is tired of hookups. He finds something appealing about the sexy cop. But won’t go back in the closet for no one.
As in all of Brandon Witts’s books you can expect great characters, an interesting story, and some hot romance.
I loved this as a book to read. It was short and fun but I decided to try the Audio and loved it. Gerrod Larkyn’s narrations were good. I even saw improvement from the first book. I do like the slightly different voices for the characters but I like his actions by words the most. i am looking forward to more Hamburger mary’s in the near future!
