Harrison“Single and ready to mingle……”
Those are the words above every picture of almost every female that strikes my
interest on this dating app my son talked me into getting. After being a single
dad for seventeen years, I’m ready to spread my wings, just not with most of
the co-eds who keep hitting on me and calling me daddy.
Now that Caleb’s in his Senior year of high school, I feel like I can let go of
the iron-clad control I’ve had on myself without his Mom in our lives. I’ve
enjoyed raising him, love the relationship we have, and while he went off the
rails for a bit last year, we’re closer than we’ve ever been. He’s got a full
ride to the University of Alabama, and I’ve settled into my spot with the
Moonshine Task Force.
But my son doesn’t warm my bed, he isn’t someone I can share my dreams with,
and he’s not the person I want to grow old with by my side. I’m not sure who
that is yet, but the smokin’ hot lady going by the name BeachBum83 definitely
has every single bit of my interest.
Karina Holland
“Looking for a good time, maybe more…..”
Those were the lamest words I ever typed in my life, but it was the best I had
for the dating app my friend, Violet talked me into joining. I didn’t have any
high hopes for myself. As a High School English teacher, I’m sick of pervy
Dad’s hitting on me when they come in to discuss their child’s lack of
motivation to read the classics and apply themselves.
Until the day Mason Harrison walks into my classroom. I had no idea Caleb’s Dad
was the man I met off that dating app who showed me how flexible I really am in
the back of his Jeep. Within minutes of the parent/teacher conference he proved
the sparks weren’t one-time only when we christened my desk.
Mason and Caleb? They touch a part of my heart that no one’s ever touched
before, and when a threat from the past shows up, I prove just how tough I
really am.
My Review:
Welcome to my stop on the release tour for Menace, book 5 in the Moonshine Task Force Series. Finally, Laramie Briscoe has told Menace/Mason’s story, and it was so worth the wait! As Mason’s son Caleb approaches graduation and heading off to college, Mason decides it’s time to find romance. After meeting the sexy Karina from the dating app he joined, he’s not sure where things will go next. However, they both quickly learn that Karina is one of Caleb’s teachers at the high school, although that doesn’t stop what they are feeling for one another.
I’ve had a sweet spot in my heart for Mason and Caleb since I began this series, and their story did not disappoint! Mason became a father as a teenager, and then raised Caleb on his own. Talking about a man ready to find love! Karina is a fantastic character and quickly and seamlessly blended into their lives while still maintaining her characteristics as a strong and independent woman.
Not that I haven’t loved all of the earlier MTF novels, but this one is special because it’s not just man meets woman, falls in love, etc. Earlier novels involved single adults without children, but this time, we get to see an amazing single dad finally find his own happiness.
I am so in love with Menace and the entire Moon Shine Task Force series. If you haven’t yet been introduced to this amazing, sexy men then you are missing out!

When she’s not writing alpha males who seriously love their women, she loves spending time with friends, reading, and marathoning shows on her DVR. Married to her high school sweetheart, Laramie lives in Bowling Green, KY with her husband (the Travel Coordinator) and a sometimes crazy cat named Beau.
