RELEASE DATE: October 4, 2016
Wild, reckless, and fast.
That’s how I raced until a fatal accident on the track ruined my riding career. I had no choice but to leave that life behind; at least, until now. My name is Logan Chandler, one of the best FBI agents in the country. When an old friend calls for help and winds up dead, I take matters into my own hands. In order to do that, I have to go back to my past, back to the racetrack and to the one girl I never thought I’d see again . . . Kassidy Bennett.
She’s the key to solving it all, but bringing her in could put her in grave danger. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize she was already there. To save her, I have to put everything on the line. It’s a race against time, a race to the death, and only one will make it to the end.

REVIEW: HIGH SIDED is the third installment in L.P.Dover’s contemporary, adult ARMED AND DANGEROUS erotic, romantic suspense series. This is former motorbike racer, and FBI agent Logan Chandler, and Kassidy Bennett’s story line. HIGH SIDED is a stand alone story and is not interconnected with any of the previous installments.
Told from dual first person points of view (Logan and Kassidy) HIGH SIDED is a second chance romance story line that focuses on Logan’s return to Franklin, North Carolina. Eight years earlier Logan’s life was destroyed when a motorbike accident left our hero unable to walk and pushing away the woman that he loved. Fast forward to present day where FBI agent Logan Chandler returns home following the death of his friend, and sets up an undercover operation to ferret out the people responsible. Logan has never stopped loving Kassidy Bennett, and he is desperate to rekindle the romance and love towards a possible future and happily ever after. What ensues is the very quick proclamation of love and rekindling romance between our leading couple, and the search for a killer in the small town of Franklin, North Carolina.
The relationship between Kassidy and Logan picks up immediately as though eight years of separation never occurred. Kassidy accepts Logan’s reasons for pushing her away, and the love they had for one another has never wavered. The $ex scenes are intimate, intense and seductive.
We are introduced to a number of secondary and supporting characters including the Bennett and Hendrix Racing Teams; Kassidy’s step-brother Sean; her sister Madison; her best friend Janie; her father Richard Bennett and his mechanic Donnie Baker; and Logan’s FBI partner Micah Perry. There may be a building story line between Sean and Janie, as well as Micah and Madison.
The world building focuses on the world of bike racing, and the behind the scenes rhetoric and competition between the different teams. As Logan’s investigation begins to take a more personal direction, Kassidy and her father become targets from an unlikely source.
HIGH SIDED is a story of mystery, suspense, passionate romance, friendship and family. The premise is entertaining and enjoyable; the characters are colorful, animated and engaging; the romance is a sweet seduction to a happily ever after. There is plenty sexual chemistry between our leading couple. L.P. Dover ARMED AND DANGEROUS series is a must read for fans of romantic suspense and happily ever afters.
