K.A. Tucker- Becoming Rain

This book summary had me intrigued the minute I read it. And the beginning of this book sucked me in.  I haven't read a K.A. Tucker book before but this definitely won't be my last! And of course after I'm good and involved in this book, I found out I was reading this series out of order.  Becoming Rain is book 2.  Oh well! 

From the first page, this book had me enthralled. It was completely fascinating and I really enjoyed getting to know Luke and Clara/Rain. As Rain got closer and closer to Luke, I didn't want to put this book down! I had to know, what next?!


Clara, or Rain as Luke knows her, is an undercover agent and Luke is her target. She's good at her job and she can take on bad guys like a champ. So it's no big deal for her to go undercover with this job. However, Luke quickly pulls Rain under his spell and she has to fight hard not to fall for him. As she starts meeting new players in the car theft gang and getting to know Luke better, she has a hard time shutting off Rain and remembering she's Officer Bertelli. Can't say I blame her!  Even though his uncle is into shady stuff, Luke isn't quite pulled into that yet and he has a good heart. 


Luke is known by the FBI as a key player in Rust's car theft ring, when in reality, he's slowly being let into that side of Rust's life.  He wants to know more, or so he thinks.   There is more than meets the eye with Luke and K.A. Tucker does a great job of slowly showing us, the reader, who he really is and the things he struggles with.  



This book was FREAKING FANTASTIC! The more I read, the more I didn't want to put it down. It was such a well put together story and I felt bad for Rain as her feelings for Luke grew stronger, yet she knew it couldn't end well. I loved the things she did that made Luke realize she did care for him. And poor Luke went through so much.... I don't want to give anything away but DONT MISS THIS BOOK! Incredible. And the ending.... Gah! Soooo good! 







A suspense-driven New Adult romance novel from the USA TODAY bestselling author of Ten Tiny Breaths and Burying Water.

Luke Boone doesn't know exactly what his uncle Rust is involved in but he wants in on it- the cars, the money, the women.  And it looks like he's finally getting his wish.  When Rust hands him the managerial keys to the garage, they come with a second set- one that opens up the door to tons of cash and opportunity.  Though it's not exactly legal, Luke's never been one to worry about that sort of thing.  Especially when it puts him behind the wheel of a Porsche 911 and onto the radar of gorgeous socialite named Rain.


Clara Bertelli is at the top of her game- at only twenty-six years old, she's one of the most successful undercover officers in the Washington, DC, major crime unit, and she's just been handed a case that could catapult her career and expose one of the West coast's most notorious car theft rings.  But, in order to do it, she'll need to go deep undercover as Rain Martines. Her target? The twenty-four-year-old nephew of a key player who appears ready to follow in his uncle's footsteps.


As Clara drifts deeper into the luxurious lifestyle of Rain, and further into the arms of her very attractive and charming target, the lines between right and wrong start to blur, making her wonder if she'll be able to leave it all behind. Or if she'll even want to.
