![]() The perfect juxtaposition of Trey and Tai, Ying and Yang, is as much a highlight of her stories as is the nonstop action. Whittle's attention to detail takes the reader through gracious hotels, into gator pits and shows off the beauty of Georgia, dotted with the seamy underbelly of the cities. In an intricately woven, suspenseful attempt to keep her nose clean and her name on the right side of the law, Tai takes off to Savannah to face down her demons, with Trey chomping at the bit to protect her, and unable to do so without violating his code of ethics. Family rears its ugly head, catching Tai in the middle between her ex-husband, his wife, her convicted cousin and the rest of her redneck family. Her perfectly mismatched protagonists take us on another wild ride through the Deep South, perfectly pitting wild, untamed Tai with letter-of-the-law injured hero Trey. Members Reviews: Perfectly mismatched protagonists! The latest installment of Tina Whittle's Tai Randolph series hits with another win. Reckoning and Ruin is the fifth in an exquisitely crafted series filled with atmosphere, humor, deep emotional connections, and surprising plots. Worst of all, her relationship with Trey starts to fray, and she realizes chasing the truth might cost her the man she loves. She's forced to confront old memories and older ghosts, including an uncomfortable reunion with her uncle Boone, who's keeping secrets he'd rather die with than reveal. Soon Tai is back in Savannah and deep in familiar troubles - a missing ex-boyfriend, a creepily poetic stalker, a passel of stolen money. She must act on her own - a strategy that high-adrenaline Tai has been working to modify in her life with Trey. When witnesses against Jasper start turning up dead, she decides she has to take him down once and for all. But is there more? Jasper, the leader of a white militia splinter group too violent for even the Klan, must be up to something worse than wrecking Tai's life. But here comes Jasper again, complete with a fancy, high-priced new lawyer and a scheme that will surely ruin Tai and Trey financially. Tai is determined to keep her amateur sleuthing in the past, not just for her sake but for Trey's as well. One of those convicted criminals is her cousin, Jasper, whose disreputable family was a big part of Tai's childhood in Savannah. ![]() ![]() A year of confronting a checkered list of ruffians and outright villains, mostly now put behind bars.
