About this listen
I was never supposed to see him again. And my family just hired him as my personal bodyguard...
Sally Canton wanted one week. Just one week where she was not, well, herself. Not the quirky kid sister. Not the smart sidekick. Not the baby of the Canton family (as in the massive greeting card empire, Canton International.) One last Spring Break as the main character in her own story. Bold, flirty, carefree. And she got that week.
Complete with the dark, mysterious, tattooed man of her dreams. Nate Brenner was her fantasy hero come to life. With him, she felt like a true heroine from all her favorite books...but it was a ruse that was too exhausting to keep up. When the trip ended, she left him with just her memory. No phone number or email address, not even a last name. They’d never meet again. Which is why the sight of him at a family event—assigned as her security detail—is enough to make her pass out. And Nate? Well, he is all business now. He has one job: protect the spoiled little rich girl who lied to him and disappeared into thin air. End of story.
This standalone novel is a smart, steamy, full-length contemporary romance. Prepare for hilarious dialogue, unruly goats, a very stupid Smart Home, a swoony happily ever after, and a sisters group text thread you’ll wish you could join!

Story
The first time I met good girl Maggie Sullivan, she was my brother’s guest at Sunday dinner. That should have been enough to keep me away. It wasn’t. The night I lost my tightly held control—she kissed me back and it was everything I could have ever imagined. Until our lives changed forever as my family went down in flames. I left and never planned to come back to our small town. Now, years later, everyone knows my songs. The ones I wrote about her. The scars that never healed, bleeding out on stage. Fame and its late nights get tiring, so I’ve returned to Little Falls to right my wrongs.

Story
A year ago, she begged me to stay. A year later, it’s my turn to beg her not to go. My obsession. My downfall. I tried to resist, to keep her at a distance. I tried to save myself. But no one will be saved here, not even a selfish bastard like me. My life has always been about sport and family, including my stupid brothers. Until that night, the night I made the worst decision of my life. And I’m still paying the price for it. We both are. But the time has come to take back control of the situation, to risk it all, to convince her to let me in, because she can’t be anything other than mine.

Story
On the run, I never expected Archer Sin—reclusive, arrogant, and tattooed—to be the doorstep I landed on. Even though he hates me too, Archer agreed to keep me safe from the man who left me broken and bruised. It should be easy to stay out of each other’s way when we’re complete opposites. He wants nothing to do with me and I want nothing to do with him, other than the haven he’s providing. Archer is always glued to his computers anyway, brown hair falling over his eyes as his inked fingers dance across the keyboards.

A dog named Slipper almost ruined my life. The uncatchable stray snuck on the patio where I was waitressing and knocked me straight into Lee Powell's lap. My fist slammed into his junk. Then I accidentally flipped his breakfast platter onto his pants. I thought it couldn't get any worse, but when I bring my brother to baseball practice, I discover his new coach is none other than Lee, owner and founder of Powell Dog Sanctuary, and he's not happy to see me.

He’s a criminal—an abomination. We’re wrong in every way. If only I could’ve convinced my heart. His lips whispered promises of all the stars in the sky. I dreamt of a love that would last forever. We were gorgeously young and desperate for one another. But we're star-crossed. Fate had decided our course. Leaving us to cling to each other as we crumbled to ash. His need became possession. My innocence turned jaded. Our families declared war. All that remained was hate. But Calder was raised by wolves. The rules didn’t apply. I was his until he said otherwise—for better or for worse.
