Publisher Description
Madison Phillips's main priority is making her new coffee shop successful. She also wouldn’t mind if the sexiest cop in Seattle would start viewing her as more than just his best friend’s little sister. She's looking for some rebound fun, and he seems like the perfect candidate.
Gabe Martinez is having a hell of a time keeping his hands off Maddie. Despite how much he would love to have her sexy body in his bed, he knows he needs to stay away. One, she's his friend's little sister. Two, she's been spoiled her whole life and is kind of a brat.
But when her shop gets robbed and she’s the only one who can identify the increasingly violent Espresso Bandit, Gabe decides he'll be the one to keep her safe. Even if it means risking giving in to temptation.

Four and a half stars
DANGEROUS GROUNDS by Shelli Stevens is the first in her Seattle Steam series. Madison Phillips, proud owner of the new Ooo La Latte coffee shop, has crushed on her older brother’s best friend, Gabriel Martinez, for ages. Now that they’re both single and living in the same area, she’s hopeful he’ll have the chance to see she’s all grown up. For his part, Gabe definitely notices Maddie’s charms but is doing his best not to leap on his best friend’s baby sister. When a dangerous criminal targets her, having her in closer proximity is both everything he’s dreamed of and the greatest temptation he needs to resist.
Shelli Stevens’s story is a page turner. Maddie’s forthright and not so easily brushed off. Gabe sees her as the adult she is, and they manage to work through the obstacles to their relationship, murderous thieves included. Dangerous Grounds is a deliciously spicy start to this series!
