Review for Protecting What’s Theirs (A Line of Duty Novella) by Tessa BaileyProtecting What’s Theirs is the follow up to Protecting What’s His by Tessa Bailey. If you’ve not read Protecting What’s His yet, you really should go and get it, read it, and LOVE it. Derek is one of my number ten best dirty talkers of all time, man he is enough to make a girl pant, cry, and beg just to have a taste of what he can offer. BBF territory for sure.“You’re lucky I’m dying for a fucking taste, or I would spank your ass raw for that.”Ginger and Derek are still going strong. Derek finally feels like he has gotten through her walls and helped her feel secure in their relationship and in trusting him. Unfortunately, work has become a dangerous situation and he decides to hold back instead of worrying her. Ginger has a secret — she’s knocked up — she’s happy about it and can’t wait to share the good news with Derek. That is until her sweet man becomes distant and she starts to feel the end is near. Can they keep it together or will distance and secrets pull them apart?“I don’t remember a time before you. It’s all a blur right up until the minute you walked in.”Another FIVE star read from Tessa Bailey, she never disappoints! And FIVE drenched panties for dirty talking Derek taking what’s his, smuttastic.Review by the Head Whore at Mommy’s a Book Whore.
