Locked, Loaded, & Lying by Sarah Andre

He might be innocent.
Or he might be very, very guilty...

Olympic skier Lock Roane was on top of the world: smashing world records, collecting medals, and basking in the love of a nation and his beautiful heiress girlfriend. It all comes crashing down after Lock discovers his girlfriend had an affair - then wakes from a drunken bender to find himself covered in her blood. Disgraced and dethroned, Lock awaits his murder trial with dread, not knowing if his girlfriend died at his own hands.
Journalist Jordan Sinclair is out of options. To satisfy her blackmailer, she must get the inside scoop (and its cash reward) on Lock Roane. An attraction to the arrogant athlete was not part of the plan. Neither is trying to find out what really happened that night. Now Jordan risks everything - including her life - to help the man she's falling for. A man who just might be a cold-blooded killer...

 Review: I was given copy of this book from NetGalley for an honest review so this is my review.
Overall, this was not a bad book but it was not an excellent book either. If you are looking for a suspense book with some romance in it this would be a good book to pick up but it does lack some depth. I hated the fact that throughout the entire book Lock was referred to as Lock and Loaded, I realize that was his nickname but it was used in really stupid places and about halfway through the book I never wanted to read that name again because one does not call their family member or lover that name it is just not realistic and very annoying to over use it. As for the rest of the book it was okay as well, the storyline kind of moved in a direction that made it hard to bond with the characters so that made it hard to really feel a lot for the book but it was a good fast pace book if you are looking for a fast romantic suspense.
I am giving this book three out of five stars.
