GUNS – THE SPENCER BOOK – A Rook and Ronin Spinoff by J A HUSS
10 April, 2014

THE COMPLETE READING ORDER IS AS FOLLOWS:
**We’ve noted how the characters interconnect through each series**
ROOK AND RONIN SERIES
The Rook & Ronin, Ford and Spencer Series must be read in order
*It is in this series you will be introduced to Spencer and Ford. who appear or are mentioned throughout future books (and have their spin off books**
THE FORD and SPENCER SERIES
THE FORD SERIES
It is in this series you will be introduced to Merc and Sasha
who will appear in future books.
SPENCER SERIES
James (The Coming for You Series) and Merc (Meet Me in the Dark)
are referenced in this series
THE DIRTY, DARK & DEADLY SERIES
This series shows pretty much all the characters making an appearance and will give you an insight into Nick and Sasha’s story for Wasted Lust and another character, Jax, who will appear in very briefly in 3,2,1 but feature heavily in Wasted Lust.
MEET ME IN THE DARK by J A HUSS
Classed as a Standalone, this is Merc and Sydneys story – Sasha is also a part of this story. We recommend reading all the books – at least the Dirty, Dark & Deadly Series before reading this book.
THREE, TWO, ONE
You will briefly meet Jax who will appear in Wasted Lust – this book will run parallel to Wasted Lust and we recommend reading before Wasted Lust.
WASTED LUST by JA HUSS
This book is set two years after Meet Me in the Dark and runs parallel to 3,2,1.
Sasha, Nick and Jax appear in this book and story lines are tied up.
Although noted as a standalone we STRONGLY recommend reading all the books as characters from previous books and series interconnect through Wasted Lust.
For this reason we feel your emotional pull to the story will be that much stronger and your connection to the story that much more intense ensuring a heightened reading experience when you are heavily invested in the characters and their stories.
Our Review
“The first rule of Shrike Club is never talk about Shrike Club.”
G&J: We’ve decided not to say anything about the story-line of GUNS at all; we don’t need to and we can’t. Saying anything about this FINAL COUNTDOWN is to spoil the ending culmination of a fantastic series; an intense and sexy journey which had us HOOKED!
“Let me take you somewhere else, Veronica. Be my canvas, be my fantasy…” – Spencer
This series has been pure indulgence; it’s had us fanning ourselves whilst we’ve fallen in love; debated conspiracy theories, teared up and had extensive freezer time. J.A Huss has written some brilliant characters with such depth and intrigue; an addictive series which will always be very special to us. There’s not been one single time reading these books where we haven’t gotten completely caught up in the storyline; where we haven’t discussed the characters at length and where we haven’t been gagging for the next one in line.
“You will never forget this day, Veronica Vaughn. For the rest of your life, whenever someone asks you what the best day of your life was, this will be in your top three.” – Spencer
“What about the other two?” – Veronica
“We haven’t made those memories yet, Bomb. But we will.” – Spencer
GUNS left us satisfied; we’ve come full circle…and now we know and WOW!!! Reading every single story up until this moment has led us to this crescendo. We finished reading with a sigh, a smile, a satisfied heart, a racing pulse as well as a loud laugh at the epilogue which ROCKED!
We’ve had boy crushes; these blokes were LUSH and girl crushes, these chicks were kick arse; namely Bombshell! Jenny crushed on Ronin…big time! Gitte crushed on Ford…massively! Both of us cheated on Ronin and Ford with Spencer in GUNS. Yep, we bloody loved them all!
“Veronica, I am the motherfucking boss.” – Spencer
We make no apologies for any of this.
“There is always time for candy pussy…” – Ronin
So, the last instalment, did it live up to being the end where everything is explained and loose ends are tied up? Absolutely! But not only that, JA Huss cleverly introduced some new characters whom we’ll see more of and she did it in a way that came naturally and made sense. And wow….we think we’re in for another treat or two there. Bring it ON!
We love this Author’s writing, it’s seamless, it flows and it’s addictive. Her characters have flaws yet you fall in love with them; you sympathise and you find a connection. Will we be one-clicking this Author? Hell yeah, we have been for a while now and long may it continue!!! Go pick this series up if you haven’t already!
“God would not put another Ford on this Earth. There’s no way he’d do that to humanity.” – Spencer
Synopsis

THIS IS NOT A STANDALONE BOOK. YOU MUST READ ALL THE OTHER BOOKS IN THIS SERIES FIRST.
ALL. OF. THEM.**
Spencer Shrike is a man with a plan. Get in. Get out. Move on. He loves Ron the Bomb, and her safety is the only thing on his mind these days. But life is a tricky bastard, and conning criminals for the better part of ten years brings its own set of problems. Sure, Rook lied her way out of a sticky situation, covering for crimes Ronin, Ford, and Spencer committed, and getting them all off scot-free in the process.
But not everyone is buying Rook’s story, and Spencer is desperate to figure out who’s in town setting them up for a fall.
Veronica the Bombshell Vaughn has put up with Spencer Shrike’s shit for years and where has it gotten her? A big fat nowhere. No ring, no house, no kids, and no promises. In fact, Spencer is worse than ever—completely distant and moody. She’s done sitting at home, pining over a man she can’t have.
But she’s not opposed to fighting for him.
Ron the Bomb fights hard and she fights dirty, so she’s willing to do whatever it takes to get Spencer’s attention.
But now there’s another man in town with his eye on her. He’s got secrets too, but unlike Spencer, Bobby Mansi is more than willing to let Veronica in on them.
The entire Rook and Ronin series comes full circle. Every con, every lie, and every skeleton in the closet is back for one final shot at vengeance and the only way to set it right… is to get out the guns.
**I’m fucking serious. ALL. THE. BOOKS. Every character, every plot point, every word was written for a reason. And that reason is THIS LAST BOOK.
