The first day that she walked onto the surgical floor that Chevy Clayborne spent most of his time on, he knew that he’d do anything to make her his.
For two years, he played the long game.
He slowly insinuated himself into her life, and the moment that she needed him, he swooped in like the knight in shining armor that he only pretended to be but most assuredly wasn’t.
He’s no real knight.
In fact, he’s the villain in everyone’s story but his own.
He lives life the way he wants to live it, and damn anyone and anything that gets in his way.
He may appear like an upstanding anesthesiologist at work, but the moment he gets out of those scrubs and into his jeans, biker boots, and leather cut with the Truth Tellers emblem at his back, he morphs into his alter ego.
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde ain’t got nothin’ on him.
He’s been putting on a front for two years, and just when he has Aella Cowan right where he wants her, he closes down every possible avenue of escape.
He thinks he has a future fight on his hand, but Aella proves that she’s not quite as sheltered as Chevy thinks. She’s perfectly happy being the old lady of one of the scariest members of the Truth Tellers Motorcycle Club and couldn’t care less if he spends his nights doing questionable things to despicable people.
As long as she has breakfast with him every morning, what does she care how he spent his night?

No matter how many books Lani Lynn Vale writes, I always seem to devour them in close to one sitting! Her writing just keeps getting better and better!
Grumpy Sunshine is the first book in her Content Advisory series and is the story of Chevy Clayborne and Aella Cowan. Chevy is an anesthesiologist and Aella is a surgical tech who both work at the same hospital. Chevy is a brother of the Truth Tellers MC and has always had his eye on Aella.
Aella has had a rough upbringing with a mother who was always using her and her sister instead of taking care of them. She's fought tooth and nail to make a living for herself especially with all the challenges that have come her way. Aella has always had a little crush on Dr Clayborne but never though he's give her the time of day. Little did she know her life was about to change.
I loved how feisty Aella's character was. She has had to overcome so much thanks to all the damage her mother left in her wake. She never gave in though. I loved that her character was pear shaped and had some meat on her bones. Lani Lynn Vale always makes sure her characters have realistic body types and it makes the story that much more relatable.
I loved Chevy's protectiveness of Aella but still lets her do her own thing. He's not controlling but is there to protect her when she needs him. I also loved his compassionate side.
Seriously, I can't think of one bad thing to say about this book and I highly recommend you go out and read it!
