GETTING ROWDY, the third book in Lori Foster’s Love Undercover series, is the much anticipated story of the sexy and mysterious, Rowdy Yates. Rowdy is a charismatic bar owner and isn’t the kind of man women say no to. So when he approaches bartender Avery Mullins, he fully expects to get her number. However, the elusive beauty has her reasons for keeping her distance— including a past that might come back to haunt them both.
About the author: Since first publishing in January 1996, Lori Foster has become a Waldenbooks, Borders, USA Today, Publisher’s Weekly and New York Times bestselling author. Lori has published through a variety of houses, including Kensington, St. Martin’s, Harlequin, Silhouette and Samhain. She is currently with Berkley/Jove.
Lori believes it’s important to give back to the community as much as possible, and for that reason she ran special contests in conjunction with a publisher, facilitating many first sales for new authors. She routinely organizes events among authors and readers to gather donations for various organizations.
Along with her good friend, Duffy Brown, Lori hosts a very special annual “Reader & Author” event in West Chester, Ohio. Proceeds from the event have benefited many worthy causes, including the Hamilton County YWCA Battered Women’s Shelter, the Animal Adoption Foundation, The Conductive Learning Center for children with spina bifida and cerebral palsy, and The One Way Farm, Children’s Home.
In 2007, Lori put together The Write Ingredients a cookbook of recipes donated by popular authors. Proceeds from the cookbook go toward Lori’s ongoing “Troop project” of collecting and mailing fun, and sometimes necessary, items to our troops.
In 2008, Lori coordinated with other authors of her choosing, and through Berkley, arranged for the publication of The Power of Love, a special romance anthology of novellas about empowering women. All author and agent proceeds from the anthology go to the Hamilton Co YWCA Battered women’s shelter.
In 2009, Tails of Love, another romance anthology with Lori and other contributing authors, was published through Berkley with all agent and author proceeds to benefit The Animal Adoption Foundation.
In 2010, The Gift of Love romance anthology, with Lori and other contributing authors, was published with proceeds to benefit The Conductive Learning Center, a school for children with cerebral palsy and spina bifida.
In 2011, The Promise of Love, a romance anthology with Lori and other contributing authors, will be published with proceeds to benefit the One Way Farm, a home for abused and abandoned children.

Are you ready for some Rowdy ? I know I am. I have been highly anticipating Rowdy's story and it is finally here. This one is my favorite of the Love Undercover series. Now don't get me wrong both Logan and Reese are hot, alpha men in their own right but Rowdy really entices me. Lori Foster does an awesome job of showing us a softer side of Rowdy while he is trying to win the heart of Avery. Avery's past comes back to haunt her and it is Rowdy who comes to the rescue. This story is full of intense action scenes, steamy attraction, hot love and a happy ending. What I love most about Rowdy is that he is a man who is confident in himself, does not make any excuses and is willing to wait for the woman who is worming her way into his heart. That is man who every woman wants. I love how the story line flows so easily with brilliant writing and never too descriptive. Lori Foster, you rocked the bar in this book. I give it 5 stars.
I've read many of Lori's books and feel I am never disappointed with her writing. I've not read Rowdy's story yet, but I definitely look forward to doing so. I enjoyed the trailer that Lori's has of Rowdy and Avery.
