Fish Out of Water (Fish Out of Water Book 1) by Amy Lane; Narrated by Greg Tremblay


This is an older book with a favorite couple. Thus, I began my audiobook journey of the series and loved every minute.


From the blurb:

PI Jackson Rivers grew up on the mean streets of Del Paso Heights and he doesn't trust cops, even though he was one. When the man he thinks of as his brother is accused of killing a police officer in an obviously doctored crime, Jackson will move heaven and earth to keep Kaden and his family safe.

Defense attorney Ellery Cramer grew up with the proverbial silver spoon in his mouth, but that hasn't stopped him from crushing on street-smart, swaggering Jackson Rivers for the past six years. But when Jackson asks for his help defending Kaden Cameron, Ellery is out of his depth and not just with guarded, prickly Jackson. Kaden wasn't just framed, he was framed by crooked cops, and the conspiracy goes higher than Ellery dares reach and deep into Jackson s troubled past.

Both men are soon enmeshed in the mystery of who killed the cop in the minimart, and engaged in a race against time to clear Kaden's name. But when the mystery is solved and the bullets stop flying, they'll have to deal with their personal complications and an attraction that's spiraled out of control.


SNik's review:

Audio. First in series (Fish Out of Water). Coworkers. Found family. Dual POV.

Private investigator and former cop Jackson Rivers needs the best lawyer to keep his brother from being framed for murdering a cop, and there’s no one better than defense attorney Ellery Cramer. But Ellery doesn’t realize what he’s being dragged into, and even though he wants to impress his crush, the constant danger almost overwhelms the intrepid duo.

This book was published a while back and I read it before and I am now listening to the audio. This is an introduction to a series featuring a memorable couple with continuous action, interesting characters, and a suspenseful plotline. I really enjoyed Greg Tremblay’s narration as he has become a favorite of mine in that he is super expressive and lends real emotion to his storytelling.
