Hannah
The second I saw him walk through that door, I knew he was trouble.
Men like him always are.
The dark hair.
The smoldering stubble.
Those piercing gray eyes that might as well be a flame thrower between women's legs.
Oh, and the fact that he's in a gentlemen's club.
What am I doing here, you ask?
It's my job to be here.
No, not that job.
My job is to put away bad guys, like the elusive mob hitman I've been tracking for months who's now somewhere in this very club.
You see, I'm a woman on a mission,
And this is a raid.
Zac
For heaven's sake, I was hosting my brother's bachelor party,
Is that a crime?
(Seriously, asking for a friend.)
I mean, considering my brother is about to walk down the aisle,
I'm just doing my best man duties.
And sure, technically, it's a gentlemen's club…
A private, exclusive, highly coveted one where everyone is supposed to be protected and completely anonymous.
Oh, and did I mention that it's six-figure stupid expensive?
Whatever.
At least there's one silver lining to this cluster of a night...
Agent Hannah Evans.
Even as she slides the cuffs around my wrists,
And her fiery eyes meet mine,
It's clear we both know the truth:
My name isn't James Smith.
My attorney will have me free in under an hour.
And that kiss…
The one I couldn't help stealing…
Won't be our last.
Cuffed is a steamy contemporary romance and can be read as a stand-alone in the Boys of Bishop Mountain series.

Hot! Damn! I love the boys of bishop Mountain!!!
I Loved this new edition to the series!!!! Zachary Donovan is smart, charming, good-looking and very well endowed 🍆😅!! and lives the life of a single guy and with being the most sought after rich bachelor he leads a hedonistic life style going from one gorgeous women to the next! And in his own words on settling down with the right woman "I’m still on the hunt, I’ll just keep looking for that solid gold vajayjay. And mark my words, no p*ssy will be left behind.” But this charming bad boy is about to meet the one women he can't hit it and quit it! FBI special agent Hannah Evans is beautiful,funny and has the whole girl next door vibe and between having a promising career with the feds she is also helping to raise her grieving military brothers 3 kids after his wife dies in accident and it doesn't leave much time for her personal life. So when she picks up a handsome guy who got caught walking in a thunder storm and offers him a ride its fate and some really delicious brownies and some great chemistry and filthy banter that ends with him giving Hannah his private phone number.But three weeks later before Hannah can work up the courage to call she is sent undercover to the club that just so happens to be where Zac and the others are having Mark's bachelor party and when Zac sees Hannah with another man its game on! Hannah is pissed that he is fucking up her sting so when her cover is blown she cuffs him and takes him down town to the station. Lets just say that her handcuffs get used more then once!😂 The chemistry and steamy love making is off the charts hot!!! This romance has plenty of angst because both characters are keeping secrets and making assumptions before knowing the truth. This story also has passion,friendship,family and great laugh out loud moments like when Princess Snooki-pie of the Pink Forest of Fairyland meets Zac and thinks he's the villain who is taking away her beloved aunt Hannah!!! Lets just say she almost turned the rooster into a hen with her plastic sword!!!😂 With some awesome storytelling and a great storyline and all too human emotions and relationships and interesting main characters and great secondary characters its no wonder she's one of my favorite authors of all time!! I can't wait for more from The boys of Bishop Mountain! This book like the first Marked is a standalone with a happily ever after ending. Until next time Luv's💕💋

This is the second book in the Boys of Bishop Mountain series. It is a contemporary, millionaire romance with incredible characters and storyline. I especially loved the intrigue, unpredictability, wittiness, and steam.
This book follows Zac and Hannah on their bumpy road to HEA. One thing after another stands in the way of their happiness. They clear one hurdle and run face first into the next one. When they do come together, these two could set the world on fire. The chemistry between them is scorching hot!
The writing, flow, storytelling, characters, character development, relationship development, and world building are all fantastic. I honestly had one heck of a time putting this book down. I highly recommend it, seriously, I can’t recommend it enough, it’s that good! I am super excited to see what comes next in this amazing series!

OMG!!
I loved the story of Hannah and Zac. It has all the comedy, spicey, and suspenseful in a romance.
Hannah, as an FBI agent and Zac as the gorgeous bachelor, meet on a rainy night. Weeks later, they meet again under very different circumstances. And so their relationship begins sort of.
I read this in one day, and I have never read a book in one day. This one goes to the top of my list as my favorite.

This is the 2nd Book in the Boys of Bishop Mountain Series and wow what an exciting read. The author gave us a funny yet suspenseful storyline full of laughs, misunderstandings, intrigue and lots of spice behind closed doors (well most of the time behind closed doors, after all we are talking about Bishop Mountain).
Zac Donovan, aka: Don Juan Donovan, is most definitely a player, but he’s met his match with Hannah, aka: Agent Hanna Evan with the FBI. They meet when Zac is walking home in the rain and she stops to give him a ride home. Their instant chemistry is out of sight but Hannah knows better than to get involved. #1 she has 3 adorable kids a home (her brother’s kids who she is helping raise) #2: He’s a total stranger with a player attitude and Lastly his name is definitely Not Mr. Smith like he told her. They meet again when she walks into a Gentlemen’s Club on an undercover assignment. The same club that Zac is hosting his brother’s bachelor party. Unbeknownst to Zac that she’s an FBI agent, things get totally out of hand and Zac ends up getting arrested. From here their path leads to lots of misunderstandings and wild times.
This is a wonderful contemporary romance that you don’t want to miss out on. If you haven’t read book 1 of the series (Marked). I highly recommend reading it first. It isn’t a have to, Cuffed can be read as a standalone, but doing so will make for a much better reading experience for Zac’s story.

Wow She Turned Into A Cuck
Wow she started out fun and then immediately got on her knees for him.
That was kinda sad.
Reading her be impressed with the size of his penis was also really juvenile and toddler brained.
She loves cooking but doesn't cook for herself.
Then she doesn't fuckinf love cooking.
But shes not real.
She's what an unseen, unloves and mostly unfucked woman from disposable income circus thinks is badass.
Where they give alms, not taxes, to the poor.
Wow he helps her become a baker.
Sigh.
"There are two people, eaters and cooks."
Try it better, assholes and people pleasers.
Literally just men and women.
The toddlerised and deregulated
The always winning and assigned shitty at birth, sorry, at Gender Reveal parties these days.
Sigh, he runs away instead of changing the world.
Well, at least we know she'a a personal exceptionalist about this chronic dehumaniser of women.
Ugh men who talk about women as a series of parts, are so unattractive.
Green Pilled Patriarchial Parable of Toxicity.
Takes a Girl Cop (fucking ACAB btw, racists, ableists, sexistz) and makes her a Girl Boss, but shes in a kitchen.
Nice.
Snore.
When they don't go socialist in the end its lile, "Oh didn't change enough to pay taxes for marginalised eh?"
Assholes they are.
Fall on your knees, cuck.

Mr. And Mrs. Smith
Zac was a little more player than I expected. I guess because in Mark and Jess's book he spent more time with Jess, his bestfriend and his brother so we didn't see what he was doing behind the scenes.
Oh but it only takes one night in the rain, a strange but beautiful woman "rescuing" him, and the ability to talk with her so easily for him to turn in his players card. However, because who he really is, high powered COO Zac Donovan - he doesn't give her his real name, just James Smith.
Hannah Banana is this kick ass special agent who in real life is a super aunt to her twin brothers 3 children. She'd do anything for those kids because they belong to Harrison and Cecile.
Hannah and Zac navigate a series of misunderstandings, media attention, working together, falling in love, and giving everything up to do what she does best - protect her family. Their world can be righted with the right amount of pixie dust and an army of friends and family who believe that these two belong together.
Once again, Lexxi James constructs another book with equal amounts of steam, banter, intrigue, mystery family and romance. I only put it down because I needed to sleep.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "CUFFED" I was hooked from the start a page turner you can't put down with suspense, intrigue, humor, steam, mistaken identity, miscommunication, twists that make for a very addicting read.
Zac Donovan is a player for sure but he meets his match with Hannah who he meets while walking home in the rain & she offers him a ride nether know who the other really is their chemistry sizzles.
Hannah can't get involved she has three unruly kids at home her brothers kids Connor, Oliver & Sophie since their mother died Cecile in car accident dads away on deployment her hands are full.
Zac has a bachelor party at a Private Gentleman's Club he's COO of Centurion Group with his brothers Tyler & Mark who he's bestman for his wedding to Jessica Bishop who is Zac's BF he sees Hannah there she's undercover never thought he'd be in handcuffs a mistaken identity.
I definitely recommend to get this riviting story Hannah & Zac take you on quite the journey so much misunderstandings between them, their chemistry is so strong, will they get their HEA, its a must read you don't want to miss such an awesome read I loved it 🖤 🖤 🖤 🖤 🖤

All begins with mistaken identity and a lie when two people more opposite that they could be meet and fall for each other head over heels.
Hannah is FBI agent taking care of her brother's kids and sometimes forget on her own needs and doing everything by the book. One night she offers a ride to a stranger and feels instant connection with him.
Zac is billionaire and a player, doesn't do relationships and likes giving false name to the women he dates. He is very private person and for a player very family guy who will do anything for his mother and brothers. When he meets Hannah everything changes and for the first time he is willing to take a chance on relationship.
But it wouldn't be intriguing story if there wasn't a little twist and mystery, action and a lot of steam.
At the end truth is revealed and Hannah and Zac can begin living and enjoying their life together. And make their dream come true (wink wink).
I'm maybe biased but Lexxi is one of my favourite authors and her books are great read from the start.

This book was so good! I’m so glad I grabbed it from the thrift store, despite knowing nothing about it.
This book had a lot of good plot twists and intrigue and surprising moments. I really liked Zac. A man who claims he’s never getting tied down is nothing new, but I like that when Zac figured out how he felt about Hannah (which was pretty damn quick) he was all in with her. He didn’t shy away from the relationship.
I really like that Hannah was the federal agent, and a bad ass in her own right (though I do wish we would have gotten to SEE her be an agent more. That storyline got a little lost about halfway through.)
Also, Zac and Hannah were HOT together. They had amazing chemistry the whole way through. And I love the cast of side characters. They both had friends and family and significant relationships outside of the romance.
I will admit it got a little… weird and rushed towards the end. There were a few times jumps that made things confusing and overall I think just could have been slowed down a little.
But definitely still a great book.

An act of kindness sets off a chain of events between two people who are meant to be but it will be a rocky road getting there. Zac Donovan is definitely a player. His nightly encounters rival that of Don Juan. Hence his media nickname #DonJuanDonavan. He never reveals his name and he never see a woman twice. So what is it about Hannah Evans? She intrigues him even when she's slapping cuufs on him in an FBI sting. Hannah works, takes care of her nieces and nephews and has little time for a personal life. Yet, Zac occupies her thoughts continuously even after he turns cold. An undercover assignment puts has her working at his company trying to find a mole. Things get tangled up when blackmail threats are made that could endanger both Hannah and her family. Zac's not about to let that happen. Finding what makes you happy and admitting it goes a long way towards happily ever after.

This is the second book in this incredible series, and this is Zac and Hannah’s story. Hannah is an FBI special agent, who does not have much time for love as she is helping her grieving brother with his children, and in her pursuit of a hitman, she is undercover at a private and exclusive gentleman’s’ club. Zac is a bad boy, who arranges his brother’s bachelor party at the same club, and before he knows it, they are arrested. This is a well written story which has combustible and undeniable chemistry, and is action-packed, with romance, angst, humor, witty banter, and love, which leads to an entertaining and steamy addictive page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

Cuffed by Lexie James due 6/30/23 4 stars
Hanna & Zac
He admits to being what everyone calls him--he just doesn't leave his name. One-and-done is easier when they don't have your name. He's not ashamed it is what it is. He's wealthy-very wealthy and lives his life.
She lives her life as well, which includes caring for her brother's three kids while he is deployed again and again. After the death of his wife, he couldn't seem to make a new life with his kids. As always, she took over where necessary. She wasn't just an aunt, she was in law enforcement and after a dangerous Hitman.
It is funny and has great characters, intrigue, and surprises.

The couple of Hannah Banana and James 'Flashdance' Smith aka Zac (😉) was fun, flirty, and full of steam. Unfortunately for them, it was also full of misunderstandings and assumptions.🙈 There is a darker vein running underneath the storyline that's a bit of surprise as well as a gut punch!🥺 Never fear, it is a HEA.❤️

Loved Zac and Hannah's story!!!! Could not put this book down! What a FANTASTIC story of destiny and the obstacles to overcome in order to have a HEA! If you like stories with humor, strong women, loving men (who are also hot and sexy), and great characters, you'll love this story!
Even though this is a standalone story, I highly recommend you read Marked (Boys of Bishop Mountain Book 1) in order to truly understand the dynamics of these wonderful characters. Can't wait for more stories of the Boys of Bishop Mountain!

Love this! It was so good especially the cheeky dialogue between the main has m characters.
Hannah went undercover in a gentleman's club on the night that bad boy Zac is throwing a Batchelor party.
Wow explosive is all I can say and has Zac sure got it bad for Hannah. But she sure put up a good fight. Their chemistry is so strong, fiesty and passionate.
Hannah knows what she wants but Zac isn't it, well shouldn't be it.
So well done. I love the character match up and the writing style is very easy read. Such a great book!!

If I was blown away by the first book in this series, Marked. Then I'm in awe of this one.
Following another of the brothers, this one being Zac the playboy of the family. Twists and turns, and comical meetings with Hannah. Hannah is an exceptional character, in that she's an FBI agent, but she's also vulnerable and has a love for baking and her nephews and nieces. Never an easy relationship, these two sparkled. A really enjoyable read, one that I maxed out in a few hours as I couldn't put it down.
Can't wait for another installment of this series...

Best book ever!
What a glorious read with a plethora of delicious moments sprinkled throughout like fairy dust. Zac and Hannah are the perfect match and being a part of their Cinderella-esque journey was enthralling. It was very interesting reading about Zac and his personal discovery of himself and love. Hannah is a sweet yet powerful warrior in her own right and her diligence to,power through any situation is empowering. But I think I’m more in love with Delilah, the Donovan matriarch, over all of the characters in this series. She’s truly amazing!

Billionaire always targeted by wanton Females
Zac who loves his privacy never gives out his real name when he is playing the playboy, vowed to never had a relationship and just enjoy as many female bodies as he likes when he likes with no commitment and no second dates. His brothers told him it would change when he met the right women, he laughed, No, No No it won’t, his brothers told him it would happen and he would know when it did, how he asked? They answered when no longer want anyone else but the one. He has a few problems along the way. Great love book.

Super cute
This is Zac’s story. Honestly, from the last book, I would never have pegged him as such a player. Anyway…
He and Hannah, a young FBI agent, met in a very unexpected way. She found him walking in the middle of the night in a rainstorm in a very expensive suit. The next time they met, it was during a raid of a gentlemen’s club he was at for a bachelor party…and there was a big misunderstanding. Things just got crazier from there. It’s a fun book with great characters. Looking forward to the next one too.

This is my second story by this author. I enjoyed Hannah and Zac's story.
I had the biggest smile on my face.
I really enjoyed the plot. Mistaken identity.
Well, thank you very much for putting those cuffs on Zac! Otherwise the tingling, the swooning, the ahhhh moments wouldn't have taken place! Ms. James would have been telling another story!
Will definitely read more by this author!

This is the second book in Boys of Bishop Mountain and its such a great, wonderful, interesting addition. Zachary is a very handsome, well endowed player and he met his match in Hannah. This is a funny yet suspenful contemporary romance book you don't want to miss. It's a page turner, full of laughs, intrigue and lots of spice. Ms Lexxi did an awesome job with this and I recommend it.
I received an ARC for my honest voluntary review

This was book 2 in the series and I absolutely loved the 1st book in the series and this was just as good.
Hannah was an Independent, loving and strong woman. Zac was the hot Alpha bad boy.
I loved their meet cute and it all started from there. There dynamic, interactions and passion it was everything.
Great story plot, fantastic characters and excellent writing.
Read it in One go as I couldn't put it down. Highly recommended.

The page-turner hooks the reader from the beginning and keeps on entertaining. The complex characters are realistic. The plot created intense action throughout the book. Headlines: Don Juan Donavan cuffed by Special Agent Hannah Evans. Zak Donavan to marry the heiress Nikki Holt. Don't believe everything you read. This story contains misunderstandings, a corrupt FBI agent, and lots of steam. I loved reading Zak and Hannah's story. I received a copy, and I'm voluntarily giving my honest review.

I couldn’t put this book down!
Wowzers! I loved every minute of this book. The characters, the plot, all of it… chefs kiss.
Laced with humor, witty dialogue, a bad ass boss-lady FBI agent and a Rake with a heart of gold, this is a book I wish I could read again for the first time.
It’s a standalone novel and I read it before the first book in the series but that didn’t matter. I’m excited to see what’s next (and before this book) for the (I’m assuming) Donavan family.
