The Bribe

Calamity Montana

By: Devney Perry

Narrated by: Ava Erickson, Jason Clarke

Duke Evans didn’t expect to find a beautiful woman in a staring contest with a bison on his favorite hiking trail. He also didn’t expect to see her again after rescuing her from the surly beast. As the sheriff in Calamity, Montana, he’s had his fair share of surprises but none as pleasant as pulling over a shiny black car and finding his mysterious hiking companion behind the wheel.

Only she lied to Duke. She gave him a name as fake as her hair color. According to her driver’s license, her real name is Lucy Ross, the famous country music singer whose sudden disappearance has been a hot topic on the radio over the past two weeks.

He’s not sure why Lucy lied about her identity or why she’s in Calamity. And she’s not talking. Instead, she offers him a bribe to keep her secret. Duke doesn’t want her money. He wants to know why this beautiful woman is on the run. And as long as the star shines on his badge, he’s going to find out.

Swoon

Very cute book! Can’t wait for the next one to hit audible! Hope Erin and Jason narrate it as well. 10 stars ⭐️
I highly recommend!

I need more of this series!!!!

The Bribe is the first book of the Calamity Montana series. It’s also the first book by Willa Nash. The Bribe is about a famous singer Lucy Ross (hiding out as Jade Morgan) and Duke Evans (Sheriff of Calamity). Lucy has been scared into hiding from a crazed stalker making sure no one knows who she is or her whereabouts. However, once pulled over Duke quickly finds out who she really is. Desperate to keep herself hidden Lucy offers him a ton of money to not give a ticket and keep her identity hidden. Duke has other plans and intends to find out what happened that sent her into hiding and make sure that not only she is safe but also protect his small town from what could happen there if exposed.


This book was so good. These two characters has so much chemistry, and love for each other. Even though Lucy was a famous singer she was kind and thought of others. Her friendship with Everly had me laughing at points, and the fact that she wanted Travis above anyone else to like her because of how much he meant to Duke spoke highly of her character, as I'm sure most people in that situation would not be comfortable with that relationship. That relationship with Travis alone says how much of a huge heart Duke does have. You will laugh, cry, swoon, and get upset that you have to wait so long for the next book in this series. after that epilogue I NEED the next book and I need it NOW!


"In public you're Jade. But behind closed doors, you're-" "Lucy?" she breathed. I shook my head. "Mine"

I loved this story...

This book makes me wanna move to Montana .. Great love story and who doesn’t imagine running away and changing their name and life even if it’s just for a little while... And JASON CLARKE 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Just makes this even better....

I’ve re-listened to this book many times. The characters are like friends I want to revisit. The story has some interesting twists, humor and love.

Narration by Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson is just super.

Amazing small town romantic suspense

This book followed Jade a country singer trying to relocate after her world falls apart and a small town sheriff. I found this book very entertaining and loved the characters. It was full of mystery and suspense. I listened to the book and the whole last hour of the book had me on the edge of my seat. Ava Erickson and Jason Clarke did a great job portraying the emotions of the characters. If you love romantic suspense grab this one.

Great new series

I liked this story of Lucy and Duke. She's a Nashville recording star who is trying to hide out in Calamity. Lucy and Duke have great banter and great chemistry. Really heart pounding action toward the end. Wonderful narration by Ava Erickson and Jason Clarke. I'm looking forward to listening to the next book in this series.

My first book from Willa Nash and it’s great
