About this ebook

Dutiful daughter, my brother’s keeper, civil servant, and protector of my city—that’s me, Officer Dahlia Wicker. I’m a master at switching hats, until an ambush in the line of duty forces a new title on me—gunshot victim. I wake up in the emergency room, scared to death, and staring into the face of an angel with soft-yet-firm hands and a smile that makes my heart tremble.

Dr. Weston Ellison’s promise to look after my little brother eases my anxiety. His hands on my skin remind me I haven’t been touched by a man in a long time. After my recovery, I can’t stop running into him and I’m forced to admit how often I think about his lips and how badly I want them on me.

We are way too different.

Weston comes from generational wealth, and I’m Baltimore humble. Desire opens the door to our relationship, but feelings break in and take us hostage.

When my brother is unjustly arrested, a spotlight blares on our differences. Our bond falls victim to prejudice, privilege, and racism. Are we strong enough to withstand these age-old threats, or will they destroy us for good?

Ratings and reviews

This is a first read by this author for me and I will definitely be reading more of her work. Dahlia is a Baltimore police officer that gets shot in the line of duty and finds herself in the hospital. Weston is an attending physician and he is their at the hospital taking care of Dahlia. Weston and Dahlia are from different worlds but he is doesn’t let that stop him from wanting Dahlia and capturing her heart. This is a great book with the hero and heroine being an interracial couple overcoming their difference and getting to an HEA. I received an ARC via Booksprout and I am leaving my review voluntarily.

Some Days & Hot Nights! This is my first time reading a book by this author and it won’t be my last. Initially, the jury was out on Dahlia because she annoyed me to no end with her petty behavior toward Weston. Both Weston and Dahlia are likable and I started connecting with her AFTER she got out of her own way. I loved the relationship Dahlia has with her partner and his wife. They had each other’s back in those mean streets. This is a good story about embracing and understanding differences and overcoming adversity. We are all more alike than we are different. I’ll be back! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

An OUTSTANDING Read Posted by Dale This book is totally an OUTSTANDING read. J. L. Lora is a wonderful and talented artist. This book is proof, of that. Some Days is the type of read you’d expect to not just to insight you to letting your voice being heard. But, it encourages you to know what your limits are and shows you the possibilities to move pass them. I’m totally looking forward to seeing more. And that includes books 1&2.
