Love on the Run

Zuri Day. Kensington/Dafina, $6.99 mass market (368p) ISBN 978-0-7582-7511-0

Day hits her stride with the enchanting Morgan Men series kickoff. The chemistry is instantaneous between “forever-grooving-always-moving female magnet” sports manager Michael Morgan and his new client, phenomenal sprinter Shayna Washington. However, the sworn bachelor is uncomfortable dating clients, and Shayna’s self-confidence has been damaged by her stalking ex-fiancé, Jarrell Powell, and her manipulative, selfish mother. When Jarrell beats Shayna and she turns to Michael for help, he realizes his feelings go beyond the professional. Readers will cheer for the hero and heroine to find a happy ending, especially given Shayna’s heartbreaking past. Day’s characters reach out to the reader from the first page to the last. The story brims with tension, charm, and the power of love. Contemporary romance fans will savor this book while awaiting the next Morgan story. Agent: Natasha Kern, Natasha Kern Literary Agency.
