Book Review By Tina
Smart Mouth by Erin McCarthy

Reese Hampton (an aspiring journalist) is not giving up the mysterious envelope she found in her rental car, the one with the story that could take her from journalistic Siberia straight to the front page.

FBI agent Derek Knight is investigating a pharmaceutical price-fixing fraud that has been going on with a huge company. To keep his already-infuriated boss from kicking him off the case, Knight agrees to give Reese an exclusive story if she'll sit on the story for the duration of the investigation.

Neither of them completely trusts the other to keep to their end of the bargain. Despite their mutual mistrust, the overwhelming physical attraction between them is intense and immediate and soon overtakes their better judgment. Reese is afraid her tomboy attitude and sexual boldness will ruin there relationship, while Knight worries he's too old for the beautiful, young sexy Reese. When it comes down to making a choice between their private lives and professional ethics, what will they choose?
