RT Book Reviews on Broken Open, 4 stars
A fabulous start to a sexy new series, the Hurley Brothers series introduces us to rock-star brothers who would tempt the most resistant of readers. Ms. Danes new book features a charming hero in hot pursuit, a strong, smart heroine and smokin hot love scenes. The Best Kind of Trouble is the best kind of reading.
Dear Author
The perfect combination of sexy rock-star fantasy and emotionally tender romance.
Kirkus Reviews on The Best Kind of Trouble
Dane strikes a beautiful balance in this dynamo of a series debut. Her characters are real and have sympathetic flaws. A colorful cast of supporting characters with absorbing tales of their own ensures that this is a series that readers would do well to seek out and savor.
RT Book Reviews on The Best Kind of Trouble, 4 stars
The Best Kind of Trouble is the lead novel in what promises to be a very steamy and extremely well-written new series by Lauren Dane. She shows us what happens when you mix an ubersexy rock-star-slash-rancher with a kick-ass librarian. Its nothing short of wonderful.
Mills & Boon Junkie, recommended read
The Best Kind of Trouble is a great example of what Lauren Dane is known forstrong family ties and confident characters with an extra touch of sexiness for good measure!

As ever, I am humbled and grateful for the people in my life who have gone above and beyond to help me in some way. I would not be where I am in my life without all that kindness.
That I was able to actually get through 2014 is in a huge part due to all that generosity and love.
Thank you.

CHAPTER ONE
KELLYS FIRST INSTINCT was to pretend she wasnt sure she heard Ross right. But it would have been a lie and she hated lying. Regardless, she didnt know how to answer.
She was thirty-three years old. She had two great kids, a successful professional life, and this man, whom she could see building a life with, had just asked her to marry him. Only less romantically, it was more of a weve been sleeping over at one anothers houses for a year now. We should just get married because its good for everyone and it would be more cost-efficient, dont you think?
