I am writing this story to share the experience Officer Scott had with Officer Full Throttle. It was by far his most memorable experience as a law enforcement officer. Officer Scott spent most of his career in Special Ops in the military, and a law enforcement career was his best option. Officer Scott’s first training officer right out of rookie school was Officer Full Throttle. It’s only fair that he would share this story to illustrate what an outstanding officer Full Throttle was and was the best Officer Scott had ever worked with in his 15 years as an officer.

It’s tough enough being a female deputy in a small town and a big family with way more overprotective males than any single girl should have. Last thing I need is gossip flying about me and my admittedly hot, mysteriously brooding boss. Still. Something ...
