You murder a man, and all of a sudden people are scared of you.

Slate Solis went from being a guy that people went to in times of need to an ex-con that people crossed the street to avoid being too close to.

He knows he’s done wrong, but out of all of his sins, only one really bothers him—coveting thy neighbor’s wife.

Harleigh Belle—the cute little lady that never gives him a second glance.

After seeing her for the first time while he was in prison, she’s stayed on his mind for three long years. Each time she comes in to visit with her friend on family day, he can’t help but stare.

Then the day comes that he’s set free, and he’s almost disappointed that he’ll never see her again.

Except fate has different plans.

He hasn’t been back in his house for more than three hours when he sees her.

Harleigh Belle in all her glory…oh, and her husband that is everything Slate isn’t.

He tells himself that her being fifty feet away from him, all day every day, is a complete coincidence. One that he shouldn’t take advantage of. The more time passes, the harder it gets to stay away. Until one day, and one very ill-timed thunderstorm, ruin everything.

Who knew that baby-making-weather was a real thing?

 

Electrifyingly sultry! With the final book in the Bear Bottom Guardians MC series, we finally get the story of the man who’s intrigued us since the start of the series. Slate is finally home and setting out to start his life over. He has a lot of ghosts to revisit in his old life on his journey, but the future is looking brighter than it has in a long time. This book brings us his story and gives us the chance to see a lot of familiar faces from previous books and see how some of their lives are flourishing. I really enjoyed this series as a whole, and this book was a lot of fun to read.

Former cop Slate Solis is finally free. For the first time in a decade, he’s out in the world and able to live his life again. He knows committing murder was the wrong thing to do, but in the heat of the moment after watching his partner and fiancee die before his eyes, he needed retribution. He can’t honestly regret it.

The one thing he’s going to miss about prison is the gorgeous woman who caught his eye while visiting a friend about three years ago. She’s been a pleasant distraction on visiting day ever since, and he is going to miss seeing her. Or he thought he was … until he realizes she’s living right next door to him … with her husband! Off all the luck!

A sexy, small town, second chance rom com!

She's back. His first love. The woman he's been missing for twelve years.But it will be okay. He can play this cool. He knows falling for her again would be crazy.

Then again, going a little crazy could be very, very sweet.

Louisiana heat. Crazy grandparents. Freaking alligators. The guy she never got over.

There are so many reasons she planned to never go back to the bayou. But now, thanks to a drawn-up-while-drinking-moonshine partnership agreement, she has to spent thirty days back home before she can sell her part of the family business.

She can't wait to get out of here.

Too bad her heart's not listening.

 

Heartfelt, sexy and down right fun! With the next book in the Boys of the Bayou series, Owen takes center stage as he reunites with Tommy’s sister, his first and only love. She wants to get in and out of town quickly without having to be reminded of the good times from the past … he wants to convince her to come home and live the life she was always destined to have. It doesn’t take anytime for old emotions to flair between them and temptation soon becomes too much to resist … but there are things about California that she can’t find in the bayou. Will he be able to let her walk away again? Great characters, a fun-filled emotional plot and so much more to look forward to in the next book!

Madison Allain would do just about anything not to have to step foot in Autre, Louisiana again. She left that part of herself behind a dozen years ago and she’s happy with her life in California now. She doesn’t want to get drug back into the loud, crazy life of the bayou, but if she wants to sell her part of the business she just inherited, she has to spend a month there first … side by side with her first love!

Owen Landry never moved on from Maddie in any real sense. Yes, he’s a fun loving guy who loves time with the ladies, but he’s never had a relationship that meant anything to him since his spontaneous plans with her fell apart when they were teenagers. He knows it’s going to be hard being around her for these few weeks, but he needs to convince her not to sell a piece of their life’s work to a stranger.

Thanks to a drawn-up-while-drinking-moonshine partnership agreement, Madison Allain has to spend thirty days back on the bayou before she can sell her part of the family business.

And if the heat and humidity and freaking alligators of Louisiana aren’t enough to agitate the cool and in-control California girl, then Owen Landry, the equally hot guy who stole her heart twelve years ago, will sure do the trick.

Owen just has to remember three simple-ish rules: Do not fight with her. Do not fight *over* her. Do *not* kiss her. He can do this. He’s charming and friendly for a living after all. But this is Maddie. The only woman to ever shake up this laid-back bayou boy.

Besides, she’s not staying. No way. These people and this town make her crazy. She doesn’t want to be crazy. She definitely does *not* want to own a swamp boat tour company. She just wants to paint. In her quiet, beautiful, alligators-not-allowed, *air-conditioned* art studio.

As for that hot bayou boy? Well, he’s…amazing. But he belongs here in the South. And she definitely doesn’t. Even if her heart stays behind when she leaves.

Excerpt:

Owen felt his mouth curve into a grin as he heard the familiar clap, clap, clap behind him.

That was one of his favorite sounds—high heels on the wooden dock of the Boys of the Bayou swamp boat tour company.

He took his time turning and once he did, he started at the shoes.

They were black and showed off bright red toenails. The straps wrapped sexily around trim ankles and led the eye right up to smooth, toned calves. The heels matched the black polka dots on the white skirt that thankfully didn’t start until mid-thigh, and showed off more tanned skin.

He straightened from his kneeling position in one of the boats as his eyes kept moving up past the skirt to the bright red belt that accentuated a narrow waist and then to the silky black tank that molded to a pair of perfect breasts.

He was fully anticipating her lips being bright red to go with that belt and her toenail polish. God, he loved red lipstick. And high heels. In any color.

But before he could get to those lips, she used them, to say, “Oh, dammit, it’s you.”

Owen’s gaze bypassed her mouth to fly to her eyes. Because he’d know that voice anywhere.

Madison Allain was home.

A day early.

Not that an extra day would have helped him prepare. He’d been thinking about her visit for a week and was still as wound tight about it as he’d been when Sawyer, his business partner and cousin, had told him that she was coming home. For a month.

Owen stood just watching her, fighting back all of the first words that he was tempted to say.

Like, “Damn, you’re even more gorgeous than the last time I saw you.”

Or, “I haven’t put anyone in the hospital lately.”

Or, “I’ve missed you so fucking much.”

Just for instance.

She blew out a breath and now he did focus on her lips.

Yep, red. Terrific. That wasn’t going to make ignoring them any easier.

“I was hoping you were Sawyer,” she said, propping a hand on her hip.

Owen tossed the wrench he held into the toolbox at his feet. “Nope. Sorry.” So she wasn’t happy to see him. Big shocker. He hadn’t always been the perfect Southern gentleman around Maddie, that was for sure.

He wiped his hands on his jeans. Okay, he was supposed to be niceto her. That meant treating her like she was one of the tourists who frequented this dock. Polite. Friendly, but not I’ve-known-you-my-whole-life-and-kissed-you-a-whole-bunch friendly. Just mildly hey-how’s-it-goin’ friendly. So that she didn’t sell off her portion of the business that not only fed him and his other two partners, but that was their pride and joy. And the only thing he was really good at.

Nice. Polite. A little friendly—but not too much. He could do that.

Annoyed that within thirty seconds of seeing her again he was already thinking about kissing her, he kicked the toolbox, trying to slide it into the nook under the bow of the boat. Of course, he kicked it too hard and it tipped, spilling tools over the floor of the boat with loud clangs of metal against metal.

He shoved a hand through his hair. That was typical. Everything was an overreaction when it came to how he acted around Maddie. Even the little stuff. Certainly the big stuff. Always had been.

“Sawyer’s over at Ellie’s.” Owen pulled himself up out of the boat and onto the dock.

That took him about two feet closer to her and he instantly became aware that he wasn’t wearing a shirt. Very aware as Maddie’s eyes tracked over his shoulders, chest and abs.

The heat that arrowed through him was unwelcome. Though not unexpected. There had always been this crazy chemistry between them. Key word: crazy.

Remington's most notoriously single,
notoriously sexy
surgeon
is about to fall for the one woman
he can't have...

Did I mention that she's
A) his best friend
B) immune to his panty-melting charm, and
C) sleeping on his couch for the next six weeks?

But Jonah's not made for commitment,
and a good man is the one thing Natalie deserves.
Not someone who can only offer up
a couple of sizzling hot, no-strings-attached nights
of pure pleasure
.

Unless that's what she wants.

Because Jonah wants her. And with each
moment they spend working together--
living together--
the harder it is to resist temptation.

And even harder to resist the fall that
might break them both...

 

Don’t we all need a little Jonah in our life?? He’s sexy as all get out, he’s totally fun to hang around with and it turns out he’s got a heart of gold! With the second book in her steaming hot Remington Medical series, Kimberly Kincaid brings us a super sexy, fun-loving read that manages to tear our heart out on occasion before slowly stitching it back together again. Chock full of emotion and drama that will have you turning the pages as quickly as you can to unravel what’s going to happen. I didn’t think I could love a book more than the first in the series … but YES, I sure did! Can’t wait for Connor’s story!

It’s well known that Jonah Sheridan is a player. He loves the ladies, but he’s not going to be settling down with one … like ever. He’s a top notch surgeon at Remington Medical and the best friend a gal could have … and he manages to prove it when he begrudgingly lets Natalie move into his apartment for the next six weeks. That’s right, six weeks with sexy temptation right under his nose!

Surgeon Natalie Kendrick adores Jonah for helping her out, and she tries to kill the gossip floating around the hospital insinuating they are fooling around. Never! Well … maybe? At least it feels like it’s a possibility the way the air sizzles when he’s near. Will she be able to show him just how much he deserves out of life or will he be the one doling out the lessons in life’s pleasure?

Excerpt:

“Come on, Jonah. You and I are just friends, and my living with you would only be temporary. I’m neat and fairly low-maintenance, and I really can cook like a boss. I know you like your space.” It was a euphemism, and if the smile poking at the corners of her lips was anything to go by, Natalie knew it as well as Jonah did. He was a freaking island, and it wasn’t by accident. “So I can totally stay out of your hair if you want me to. But please.” In a blink, her smile disappeared. “I’m begging you. Don’t make me stay with my parents.”

Jonah’s nice-guy propensity came out of hiding to pick a fight with his defenses, both of them quickening his pulse. His defenses didn’t fight fair, though, reminding him that he had damn good reasons for not being a long-haul guy.

He opened his mouth to say he was sorry. To tell Natalie, rationally and with good reason, why he just couldn’t let her move in with him for six weeks.

But what came out was, “Okay. You can stay.”

Christ, his inner nice-guy was a sneaky son of a bitch.

“Really?” Natalie let out a gasp that quickly slid into an adorable ear-to-ear grin, and okay, Jonah was going to have to do some damage control here.

“With a couple of stipulations,” he said, holding up his fingers to count them off. “If you want to watch rom coms or that channel that plays all those gooey holiday movies, you’ve got to do it on your iPad.”

Jonah knew from experience that she loved both, and with Christmas only a month away, she’d certainly want to mainline them whenever she had down time. But while happily ever after might be on some people’s agendas—and more power to them as long as they didn’t try to convert him to coupledom—he sure as hell wasn’t going to let it parade across his big screen TV.

“Come on! Not even It’s a Wonderful Life?” she asked, but he stood firm.

“The only Christmas movie that flies in my apartment is Diehard.”

Her hands moved to her hips. “That is so not a Christmas movie.”

“Take it or leave it, Kendrick. Yippie-ki-yay is all the holiday cheer you’re going to get out of me.”

Natalie frowned, but didn’t push her luck, so Jonah continued. “I’ll take that you cook, I clean bargain. I don’t mind doing all the dishes, and I wasn’t kidding when I said I can’t cook. No complaining about football or hockey—the Rogues are kicking ass again this year on the ice and I want to watch every game that I can. And for the love of all that it sacred and good, no bras on the shower curtain rod.”

“Done.”

His surprise must have stumbled over his face, because she laughed and tacked on, “What? You know I love hockey, too, and after meeting Finn Donnelly over the summer at that fundraiser at The Crooked Angel? I’m all-in for the Rogues. I promised you I’d cook, and the other stuff”—she lifted one shoulder beneath her light pink sweater—“I can stipulate, even if it is kind of grinchy. So, do we have a deal? I can come live with you until this mess is all fixed?”

Jonah exhaled. “Yes, we have a deal.

Years ago, they were in love. She was an up-and-coming superstar and he was the devilishly handsome security professional hired to keep her safe. They fell hard and fast, no matter how they tried to resist one another. But not everyone around them was happy about their relationship, and a string of lies and deceit destroyed what they once had.

Having just taken the helm of a nationally renowned protective services company, Kynan McGrath is looking to rebrand and revamp his career. The newly crowned Jameson Force Security is moving from the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas to the mountainous steel town of Pittsburgh, and the last thing Kynan has time for is to deal with his past.

More than a decade has passed since their split, but even a bruised and battered heart remembers its first love. So when Joslyn Meyers comes to him for help, Kynan reluctantly agrees to keep her safe from a terrifying stalker who keeps threatening her life.

As the danger they face continues to intensify, Kynan realizes he’ll stop at nothing to protect the woman who turned her back on him all those years ago. Because one thing is certain—no matter how hard he tries to convince himself otherwise, Joslyn still has his heart.

 

Exciting kick-off to a brand new series by Sawyer Bennett! I was quickly drawn in to the drama of both a reunion between these prior loves and the intrigue of what was going to happen with her stalker. The groundwork was laid for some interesting characters coming to work at Jameson Force Security, so I’m really looking forward to more to come in the series!

Kynan McGrath just took over a prestigious security company in Vegas and is working hard to bring some new ideas to life as they move a new division to Pittsburgh. The last thing he has time for is hearing from a blast from the past!

Pop star turned actress Joslyn Meyers was his first love and is the woman he never forgot … mostly because she walked out on him without a word and left him a cold, bitter man! He wants to turn her away so badly … but when he hears she was almost killed by a persistent stalker, he knows he has to step in and help her … but he doesn’t have to like it!

Will bitter enemies make better bedfellows for the Boone Brothers?

She’s about to find out.

Only the worthiest of causes could woo Drea MacDonald back to Boone Springs to work with the Mason Boone. The sexy Texan had stolen her schoolgirl heart, and his family had stolen her legacy. But soon resisting the temptation to invite Mason into her bed becomes impossible. How long before he climbs back into her soul, too?

 

Delightfully addicting story of two lost souls reconnecting! Charlene Sands is kicking off her brand new Boone Brothers of Texas series with Mason & Drea’s story. He broke her teenage heart but she’s determined not to let him do it again! I was quickly drawn into the chemistry and past drama from this couple, along with the family dynamics working behind the scenes. It was a fast and enjoyable read with a well laid foundation for the future books in the series. I’m looking forward to enjoying more of the Boone Brothers!

Andrea MacDonald isn’t exactly excited about coming home to Boone Springs, Texas, but a charity event near and dear to her heart is just the thing to have her stepping foot into her hometown after so many years away. Bitter resentments, estranged relationships and a hectic lifestyle back in New York keep her from pining for her roots all that much, but she’s going to have to buckle down and get the job done while she’s in town … no matter who she has to work with!

Seeing Drea again is like a breath of fresh air for Mason Boone. He knows she doesn’t much care for his family anymore, but he remembers the good old days when they were friends and bordering on more before he got his head straight and made sure he didn’t take advantage of her young heart. He’s healing from loss and not exactly a free spirit himself anymore, but spending time with a blast from the past might be just what he needs to live a little again.

Exploring their fantasies could save their marriage...or push it over the edge

Samantha Archer's life has hit a wall. Her world is housework, homework and reminding her husband—the biggest kid in the family—to help out at home. Once she felt confident, powerful and sexy, but Brady doesn’t seem to notice her anymore, and now all she feels is invisible.

Brady has tried being the goofy guy who stole Sam’s heart, but it’s not working. He’s losing the woman he loves and doesn’t have a clue how to fix it. He’s keeping his darkest fantasies hidden too, sure they’re not what Sam wants, and his inability to please her cuts him deeper than she knows.

When Sam lands a new job at a law firm, Brady still won’t pick up the slack, and one night giving him orders unexpectedly reignites their missing spark. Sam discovers the Femdomme she didn’t know she was, kindling Brady’s submissive desires.

But while things heat up inside the bedroom, life outside it starts unraveling. Brady's need to call the shots at work complicates his hunger to kneel for his wife, and Sam has longed to experiment in more ways than one. Their exploration of dominance and submission goes a step too far when they invite Sam’s sultry switch coworker into their bed, and the fallout could cost them everything.

Warning: contains a six-foot-five, ex-football player geek and a ballsy, badass redhead who's learning to unleash her inner Domme. Scenes depicting humiliation, pegging and threesomes could disturb, or stimulate a thirst for adventure.

 

Emotionally scintillating! With the last book in the Legally Bound series, we finally get down and dirty with Brady and Sam. We’ve been familiar with the problems running rampant throughout their marriage since his brother Jack’s story in Book One, and now we get to know them behind the scenes. The story line was attention grabbing, and brought love and emotions to the forefront. I enjoyed the entire series!

Samantha Archer is in a rut. She used to be powerful and ready to take on the world, but these days she’s struggling to hold onto her sanity while she cares for the kids and keeps the house running smoothly with no help from her over grown child of a husband. She is seriously at her breaking point … somethings got to give!

Brady Archer tries in his own quirky way to make his wife happy, but he’s not great at putting in the effort when it’s something he’s not interesting in picking up the slack on. When one too many mistakes makes her lose her temper big time, they stumble upon the fact that she just might be into the lifestyle he’s long yearned for but was afraid to try. Let the game’s begin!

I fell for Cameron Connolly at the wrong time. And when he left, I thought my life was over. But then, after the worst happened, I truly understood what that phrase meant. Now, he’s not ready for a second chance, and I’m not offering one. Though given that our families have been forced together after losing one of our own, I know there’s no turning back. Not this time. Not again. Not when it comes to Cameron.

~~

I never wanted to hurt Violet Knight, but there were reasons I had to leave all those years ago—not that she'd believe me if I told her what they were. I not only left her, I also left my foster brothers. Honestly, I didn’t want to come back to Denver to help run my father’s failing brewery. But when it comes to my brothers, I know I’ll find a way to make it work. Perhaps I’ll even earn Violet’s forgiveness and face the connection we both thought long forgotten in the process. Because I wanted her then, but now I know I need her. I just hope she needs me.

 

Overflowing with all the feels! With the first book in her new Fractured Connections series, Carrie Ann Ryan digs deep and shares an emotional journey of loss, grief and forgiveness. The start of the book is attention grabbing, and once we get to meet all of the core characters we are entrenched in what will become of them all. Fairly well developed characters and lots of emotions. I enjoyed it and look forward to the next in the series!

Cameron Connolly thought he was doing the right thing all those years ago when he walked out without a word on the love of his life and his family, but now that he’s facing the hurt he caused, he’s realizing just how much damage he left behind. Now back in Denver trying to save the bar his parents put their heart and soul into with his brothers, he’s faced with making amends and picking up the pieces.

Violet Knight always wondered what it would be like to see the man who yanked her heart out and stomped on it again, but she never expected it to come at such a devastating time in her life. She’s coping with the loss of her best friend, and the emotions he brings to the surface at a time when she’s already raw just might do her in. Can she allow herself to forgive him if it means having him to lean on now?

I was about to make a huge mistake.

And when I say huge, I mean, approximately ten inches’ worth of mistake.

But after the week I’d had, this was just what I needed. A night of big bad mistakes with a big bad biker.

Honey Scott
Finding out your boyfriend is a cheating loser is a real buzz kill. Finding out you’re actually the other woman, is devastating. Call it temporary insanity, but I decide the best way to get over the loser I’d dated for two years is to get under a biker with tattoos, dimples and a hard body he knows how to use.

He’s going to make everything better with numerous mind-blowing orgasms. But just for one night.

Except one faulty condom means my one-night stand isn’t so one-night after all.

Caleb Calley
After a night of insane sex, the beautiful blue-eyed brunette gave me the slip. And even with all the women on offer afterwards, I can’t get her off my mind. So when she turns up at the Kings of Mayhem MC compound I’m quick to give her a second night of amazing sex and crazy orgasms. But this time, I’m not ready to let her go.

There’s just one problem— she’s not interested.

But if she thinks she’s going to give me the slip again, then she’s got another thing coming. I know she is keeping a secret from me but I don’t care what it is. I want her and I’m going to make her mine.

 


The ultimate bad boy has met his match! The next book in Penny Dee’s Kings of Mayhem series is delicious and just might be my favorite of the series so far. Caleb didn’t think he had it in him to be serious about anything other than his MC, his family and his art, but his forever might have just walked in the door. My attention was held from the first page, and the ups and downs of the story line kept me on my toes waiting to see what was going to happen. Really loved Caleb and his story!

After finding out her boyfriend was a cheater and worse that she was unknowingly “the other woman” during the two years they spent together, Honey Scott is fit to be tied and ready to get the dirty rotten louse off of her mind! What better way than a wild night of wickedly hot sex with a bad boy biker? She thought she was on the mend with memories of her one night of perfection keeping her company, but when the stick says she’s pregnant, she’s got a whole new future to work out!

Kings of Mayhem member Caleb Calley wasn’t looking for a relationship, but he can’t get his mind off of the smoking hot babe that snuck out of his bed after a night of amazing sex. When she shows up at the clubhouse, he’s more than happy to oblige her in another night of fun, but he doesn’t want to stop there. He’s not sure why she’s playing hard to get, but he doesn’t want to let her slip away again. He can tell she’s hiding something, but it’s not going to stop him from convincing her to take a chance on him!

Excerpt

As he waited for his breathing to calm, I took a moment to marvel in the bulk of the man lying on top of me. My fingers slid across golden skin colored with a collage of intricate pictures, symbols and words. My palm curved around strong deltoid muscles that were well-rounded and powerful. He was big. Strong. Lethal. And probably not interested in being the father of my baby.
The thought made me shift uneasily beneath him. I had to get out of there. I needed to be alone to collect my thoughts and find my senses. I wiggled and Caleb rolled off me. I thought he would let me go but he didn’t. Instead he turned my face towards him and kissed me hard on the mouth.
But I was leaving. I sat up and began looking for my panties on the floor. Finding them wedged under the corner of the bed, I slipped them on and began hunting for my skirt.
“Where are you going?” He asked.
“I have to go.”
“Why are you always running away from me?” He said, an amused sparkle in his eyes. “Will I see you again?”
I paused and looked at him over my shoulder. “Do you want to?”
He grinned and I was momentarily taken back by how beautiful it was.
How beautiful he was.
“Hell darlin’, I don’t want you to leave.”
I resumed looking for my skirt. “I have to leave. I have things to do.”
I found my skirt in a tangle with my shirt at the foot of the bed.
“At least let me give you a ride home.” He sat up.
“Its fine. I can call a cab.” I stood up and slipped my shirt on.
“I’m not letting you take a cab.”
“Really its fine.”
He climbed off the bed, unfazed by his nakedness, and began looking for his boxer shorts. I paused to drink in the fine display of his muscular body and his still swollen manhood swinging between his powerful thighs. It was obvious he took very good care of his body.
He slipped on his jeans and by the time I had buttoned my blouse and found my phone and shoes, he was fully dressed and securing his wallet chain to his jeans.
“Ready?” He asked.
There was no point arguing.
As he opened the bedroom door, I mentally braced myself. I wasn’t looking forward to the walk of shame through the clubhouse. But the hallway was quiet and the clubhouse was still. Sometime in the night the music had stopped and the party had wound down.
As soon as I entered the bar, the stench of last nights partying hit me like a bat to the face and I had to hold my breath.  The bar was littered with snoring bikers and the odd club girl asleep where they had passed out. Bottles lay scattered and spilled everywhere. Stale booze and body odor were ripe in the air. Caleb took my hand and led me through the mess, stepping over discarded bottles and sleeping bodies. Musty smoke glittered in the dusty rays of sunlight bursting into the room from a window above the jukebox.
Across the room, an older biker was quietly having sex with a large, partially dressed woman up against the pool table. His jeans were down around his ankles and his eyes were closed as he lazily rocked into her. The slap, slap of her large wobbly boobs against the pool table broke the stillness of the morning.
Further away, a naked woman lay slumped at the base of a stripper pole with everything open and on display. She hugged a half-spilled bourbon bottle and snored loudly. As we passed by her, Caleb shook his head and grabbed a discarded shirt from a nearby chair to cover her.
“Is she alright?” I whispered.
“Yeah, that’s Candy. It’s not the first time she’s passed out there and it won’t be the last.”
I glanced around me. This place. These people. This was Caleb’s world. And it reeked of bad choices. Nausea roiled in the pit of my stomach and I barely made it outside in time before losing the contents of my stomach.
“Jesus, are you okay?” Caleb asked, coming up behind me.
I gestured for him to give me a moment as another wave of nausea washed over me and I vomited again.
“You drink too much?” he asked when I finally straightened and walked over to him. “I don’t remember you being drunk.”
I shook my head. “I didn’t drink a thing.”
He handed me a helmet. “Are you okay to ride? Or do you need a minute?”
“I’ll be okay.”
He led me over to a row of motorcycles parked alongside the clubhouse. His was a big black beast with lots of chrome gleaming in the early morning light.
Before he climbed on, he touched my hand. “Are you sure you’re ok?”
I smiled brightly but it was fake because I felt weird. Out of place. I didn’t belong there.
“Yes. I’m fine.” I said, very aware that I needed to get out of there. I did up my helmet and climbed onto the back of his bike. “Lets ride.”

London, 2019. Life has been easy for Maxim Trevelyan. With his good looks, aristocratic connections, and money, he’s never had to work and he’s rarely slept alone. But all that changes when tragedy strikes and Maxim inherits his family’s noble title, wealth, and estates, and all the responsibility that entails. It’s a role he’s not prepared for and one that he struggles to face.

But his biggest challenge is fighting his desire for an unexpected, enigmatic young woman who’s recently arrived in England, possessing little more than a dangerous and troublesome past.

And can Maxim protect her from the malevolence that threatens her? And what will she do when she learns that he’s been hiding secrets of his own?
