Alice Winters: The Hitman's Guide to Staying Alive Despite Past Mistakes

Jackson
Now ​that Leland’s decided to give up his life as a hitman and take a walk on the mild side, we’ve been enjoying a simple life of taking down bad guys the legal way. I didn’t know he would be just as reckless as a PI, but it’s not my fault if I happen to enjoy helping him hunt down the occasional criminal. If only I could keep the house from being overrun by Leland’s gun shrine—or stop him from making our cases “more exciting” by terrorizing people into confessing. Overall, life seems perfect, right?

Wrong.
We’ve been called in to investigate a suspicious murder committed by someone claiming to be the Sandman. When we find a note on the victim’s body, we realize that this could ruin our lives forever.

Leland:
I wasn’t involved in the murder. It might look like my writing and my note, but I wouldn’t do that to Jackson—especially after I promised him that I wouldn’t take a hit ever again. At least, not without telling him. I’m finally… (tovább)

Alice Winters: The Hitman's Guide to Staying Alive Despite Past Mistakes

Annyira jól esett ezt a részt is olvasni! Imádom a srácokat, a humorukat és azt a sok kalamajkát amibe keverednek! Nagyon tetszik, h nem lehet unatkozni mellettük és főleg, h a drága Leland mindig ad okot arra, h hangosan felnevessek!
Nagyon megszerettem őket és alig várom, h olvashassam a következő részt, mert Alice könyvei mindig boldoggá tesznek 1-1 nehezebb olvasmány után!

Leland ismét brillírozott, ennyi sületlenséget szerintem még Felix se tud összehordani. Ami a legdurvább és egyben legszórakoztatóbb, h az esetek 99%-ban Jackson partner ebben az őrületben :D Ellenben ez a múlt visszaüt dolog nekem annyira nem tetszett :/ Ami viszont még szórakoztatott az Jackson anyja és Leland közötti jelenetek, azok nagyon jók voltak, Leland-nek senki nem tud ellenállni :DD

“This is so amazing. Let’s wager something,” I decide.

“Yes, whoever wins doesn’t have to pay for supper.”

“Okay! That’ll be your wager. Mine will be… if I win, you have to pose naked in my gun room so I can take pictures of you and then hang them on the walls of our sex dungeon.”

“This doesn’t sound fair—”

“Alright! I’m going to go hide—”

Jackson grabs for me. “Hold on, I said it’s not fair—”

“Bye, love!”

“According to my nifty little trail app I downloaded, we go this way,” he says as he breaks away from the trail and starts blazing his own. He’s quite determined until he gets a face full of spiderweb.

“Oh my god!” he cries as he battles it off his face. Why he pulled his handgun out in the process, I don’t know.

“Put your gun away,” I urge.

“I’m gonna shoot the creepy little fucker. Where’s it at?”

“Do you want me to lead?” I ask.

“Yes, and if you eat enough spiders, I won’t have to share supper with you.”

“My god, I’m amazing and just so funny that I literally fell in love with myself. Do you ever resent my level of funniness?”

He nods slowly. “Every day of my life… it’s all I can think about, honestly. I wake up, and I scream internally, ‘Why am I not as funny as Leland? How have you deprived me of finding things like buttholes and back doors hilarious?’”

“Oh… oh, baby, it’s okay. You’re at least pretty to look at.”

“I am?” He sounds so hopeful that it makes me start laughing.

“Who’s my handsome boy?” I coo as I rub his chin.

“I am,” he says as he leans into me like a cat wanting to get scratched.

“Where are we at? Are we at one of those places where they’ll abduct you and I get to find you?”

“We can do that for your birthday.”

I stare at him in shock. “Seriously?”

“Sure.”

“My birthday is tomorrow.”

“No, it’s not.”

“Yes, it is. It’s my birthday, don’t tell me when it is!”

“It’s not tomorrow.”

“My new birthday is tomorrow, and you can’t tell me otherwise. Got it?”

“You can’t just change your birthday.”

“Guess what? Your new birthday was yesterday. Guess you don’t get anything,” I say.

I pull my gun out and follow him up the stairs against the part of my brain that’s going “This isn’t your job. Let the police handle it. This is probably severely illegal. You’re going to go to prison one day, and it’ll be all Leland’s fault, but you love him so much that you’ll forgive him anyway.”

I am such a sad sucker.

“I think he has a crush on us,” I whisper loudly to Jackson.
Jackson narrows his eyes. “Stay away from Leland.”
“Oh my god! No one wants that much crazy in their life besides you. Trust me, you’re both safe from that,” Cassel says.

“Keep calm,” Jackson says gently.
“I am calm. This is my calm face. Don’t you see me radiating calmness?”
“Nope…I see death and destruction written across your face.”

I lift my shirt again, which makes him start laughing.
“Stop! Your chest is so white it’s blinding me. Has it ever seen the sun?”
“Just you.”
He stares at me. “Are you calling me the sun?”
“I’ve never seen anything brighter.”
“Oh my god. My heart. It hurts.”

“Thank you. Now talk about what you’re going to do to me when I’m naked on your car.”
“I would pin you there with your bare ass right on the hood.”
“Ooh, and then?”
“Feet on the front bumper, legs spread.”
“Ooh, what else?”
“With a rag in one hand and wax in the other.”
I stare at Jackson in disbelief. “Goddammit, you just want me to wax your car?”
