Title: Wrong Question, Right Answer
Author: Elle Casey
Series: The Bourbon Street Boys
Release Date: August 23rd 2016
Synopsis
As a member of the
Bourbon Street Boys private security firm, Antoinette “Toni” Delacourte
is one strong woman, but despite her reputation for being tough as
nails, she is haunted by her past mistakes. Now they’re catching up to
her, and throwing her for a loop.
Ten years ago, Toni kissed
Lucky, her brother’s best friend. Worried it would break apart the group
she’d come to see as family, she walked away—straight into the arms of
Charlie, and an abusive relationship.
For the past decade she’s
tried to keep her feelings for Lucky platonic—he’s her friend, her
colleague, and he’s got his own past to deal with. Free of Charlie but
unable to shake his memory, Toni finds herself feeling vulnerable and
unable to deny her attraction to Lucky any longer.
She’s always thought that kiss was her first mistake, but now she’s wondering whether the real mistake was running away.

Review by Iza
I
think I liked this one the most, out of all three. It focused less on
the jobs and was less action-packed. It was more about our main
characters, their backgrounds and their healing. First alone, then
together.
Toni is badass, just like May stated. The latter would sometimes tick me off, a little but you can't stay mad at her long. Or her sister, Jenny.
Lucky was just plain adorable and I loved him! Of course I can't say much, because that would spoil the book but he was just swoon-worthy in many scenes.
Of course you can expect humor. But, as I said, it's more about healing, so maybe this one's the deepest book. I honestly hope Thibault gets a HEA too.
4 stars. I want to thank the publishers for the copy given in exchange for my honest review.
Amy's Review-3.5*

Amy's Review-3.5*
In the third
installment of the Bourbon Street Boys, we finally get the story of Toni and
Lucky. They’ve intrigued from the start,
and I’ve wanted to get to know them better.
They both suffer from tragedy in their past, and it weighs on both of
them heavily. Toni was sent to prison
for killing an abusive ex-boyfriend; she still feels extreme guilt over this
situation, thinking that maybe there was a way that she could have handled it
that didn’t end in her ex’s death. Lucky
is still devastated by his sister’s suicide from several years prior; he feels
that he should have been there more and that maybe if he had been, that her
life wouldn’t have ended. I liked that
Toni and Lucky were able to both get some closure to their past in the end, and
that they were able to find that in each other.
This story isn’t without some minor drama, but it’s all resolved fairly
quickly. Overall, it was a good addition to the series; I’m hoping we might
still get a story for Thibault, as I think he really needs someone in his life,
as the rest of the team has found their respective match and I hope he does,
too.
