Sheās not the woman I thought ⦠but dammit, sheās the woman I want.
I never thought of myself as cynical, but getting dumped at the altar changes a man.
Now, Iām all about my job. About building my business and getting on with my life. Donāt get me wrong; I still love women. I love the way they look. The way they smell. The way they feel. Especially the way they feel. And Iāve pretty much made it my mission to give each and every woman who shares my bed the ride of her life.
But getting close? Getting serious? Giving a woman my trust again? Yeah, thatās not going to happen.
Or so I thought.
Then I met her. Itās funny how things can change in a heartbeat. How one case of mistaken identity can change everything. But there she was, all business and completely uninterested in me. And damned if I didnāt want her. Crave her.
Most of all, I wanted to help her. To keep her and her sister safe. But the more I get to know her, the more I want her. The whole package. The complete woman.
And the miracle is that she wants me, too.
Trouble is, weāve both been burned before. Now, I know one thing for certaināthe only way that weāll survive the heat that crackles between us is if we both find the courage to leap into the fire together.
Lovely Little Liar is a novella originally published as Bitch Slap. Minor edits, such as expanded scenes, have been made to this book.
