Planning a wedding is never easy—especially when the Russian Mafia wants you dead.

On Best Behavior—the third and final book in The Conduct Series—finds our favorite couple moving forward, despite the odds. Following a pardon by the Governor of Illinois, ex-cons Sophie Taylor and Grant Madsen are finally free to pursue their love and the life that lies ahead for them. Grant now fights the forces that have hurt his loved ones by working undercover for the FBI, and he has infiltrated the Russian Mafia in Chicago. Sophie dives into swimming with Grant’s nephew, Ben, and into her career as a psychology professor. Thankfully, now it’s Ben’s turn to heal through therapy sessions with Dr. Hunter Hayes.

With so many things going right for Grant and Sophie, it's too bad the Russians aren’t their only threat. When Grant’s father, Enzo Barberi, discovers his own son thwarted his plan to break out of prison, his overdeveloped sense of vengeance flares to life. As Sophie scrambles to save her fiancé, it's impossible to say who will kill Grant first—the Russians or his Italian family. Can love triumph over evil? Are hard work and a pledge to be on best behavior ever enough?

Once again, author Jennifer Lane brings a harrowing tale of romantic suspense with a psychological twist, and it's sure to leave readers breathless.

About the Author

People fascinate the psychologist/author (psycho author) known as Jennifer Lane. Her therapy clients talk to her all day long about their dreams and secrets, and her characters tell her their stories at night. Jen delights in peeling away the layers to scrutinize their psyches and emotions. But please rest assured, dear reader, she isn’t psychoanalyzing you right now. She’s already got too many voices in her head!

Stories of redemption interest Jen the most, especially the healing power of love. She is the author of The Conduct Series—-romantic suspense for adult readers—-and recently completed the third and final installment: On Best Behavior. Streamline is her first foray into writing for young and new adults, but she’s found this sort of writing even more fun. A former college swimmer, Jen was able to put a lot of her own experiences into this book.

Whether writing or reading, Jen loves stories that make her laugh and cry. In her spare time she enjoys exercising, attending book club, and hanging out with her sisters and their families in Chicago and Hilton Head.

With Good Behavior Review

With Good Behavior by Jennifer Lane

In a world gripped by organized crime, family dysfunction, and dim hopes of redemption, can true love persevere? For Sophie Taylor, a beautiful psychologist who lost everything when she violated an ethical boundary, and Grant Madsen, a handsome naval officer who sacrificed everything to protect a loved one, finding that love may carry an unbearable cost.
Starting their lives over in Chicago, both are fighting influences from their family and running as fast as they can to escape the past. When their paths cross outside the parole officer's door, the attraction is instantaneous. But a hidden connection may not only shatter their fledgling love, but prove deadly to them both.

Have you ever read a book that had you so engrossed that anytime there was a slight interruption like… oh I don’t know… one of the kids complaining their hungry? Or the phone ringing to say that your kids don’t have school the next day because of snow? Or Your husband calling just to say I love you?  And you got frustrated?... YEP, that was me with this book.  I was so tuned in to everything that was going on that it was as if my real life was placed on hold for 412 pages of awesomeness!

Sophie is that heroine that you can’t help but absolutely fall head over heels for.  She’s hit a bit of a rough patch because of a poor decision to trust the wrong person.. but her luck is about to change or at least we hope it will. 

Grant was a total sweetheart… I loved him… really I did… but he was also a little on the soft side for a former Navy man who served two years in prison… BUT then again considering the circumstances I was more than able to understand WHY he was so sensitive… but he also wasn’t because even though he was sensitive and very compassionate he was also a baddass!  A total, yummy, sexy, baddass that I wouldn’t mind being cuffed to for a few hours… alone… in his PO’s office ;-)

Watching these two interact was amusing as well as adorable.  In the real world of ex-cons and parolees these two really should have had nothing to do with each other… but in this sweet, suspenseful, sassy story… they were perfect for each other in so many ways!  I honestly think that Grant and Sophie complimented each other so well that I am MORE than anxious to read Bad Behavior to see what kind of shenanigans these two will get into next…

But there was more to love about With Good Behavior… there were more characters that I found absolutely hilarious, or heartfelt, or just wanted to punch them!  Like Roger… that man seriously cracked me up!  Then Jerry… a baddass who finds his soft side.  Or Logan… do I love him or do I hate him?  I couldn’t decide!

This is definitely a book that should be on everyone’s MUST READ least of 2013!!!  Jennifer has a wonderful writing style that pulls you in and gives you a little glimpse into everyone’s mind!  Her ability to balance out love, hate, friendship, and humor is something that will have me coming back for more of her work!

Happy Reading!
