Once you’re in a prison gang, you’re in it for life. That’s
what Mason Harding thought until the boss accepted his resignation. After the
State releases him on parole, a sexy divorcée behind the wheel of a car almost
ends his life quicker than a shank. His chance encounter with Mia Eddison
results in a night of passion, but her brother—his parole officer—catches them
together and doesn’t approve.
Mia falls hard for the cocky ex-con, but not because of his
chiseled body. She vows to break through his walls and discover his secrets,
but never expects those secrets to threaten her life.
When members of an organized crime ring kidnap Mia to force
Mason’s return to the gang, he goes up against an old friend to save the woman
he loves. Will his sacrifice be enough or will everything fall apart in a blaze
of gunfire?
Tagline - Their chance encounter resulted in a steamy affair, but
will his former gang and a parole officer tear them apart?
PG Excerpt
“Why are you
avoiding my questions? You can tell me anything.”
“Not this. If
you trust me, don’t ask those kinds of questions.” He tightened his fingers
around her forearm as she tried to jerk free from his grip. “Listen to me, damn
it. You mean a lot to me, but I can’t tell you this. At least not right now.
That’s nothing against you. It’s all on me. I just need time to take care of
this problem. Okay? I’m fucking stressed, in a shitload of pain, and I don’t
need you to hound my ass.” He dropped his hand from her arm and scowled as
though he just noticed the dirt and blood on his knuckles. “I’d like to go
upstairs to clean up before you take me home. I don’t want Alan to know what
happened.”
Mia dug through
her purse with shaky hands, so angry she didn’t trust herself to speak.
He took the keys
from her before the little pieces of metal slipped between her fingers, and he
hugged her despite the grime on his skin and clothes.
Tears clogged
her throat. Her mind screamed at her to push away from him, but the strength in
his arms enveloped her and stole her will. His heartbeat soothed hers, and she
no longer cared about his lies or if filth caked him.
At least not at
the moment.
“I never meant
for this to happen, Mia. I will fix this.”
“I know, but at
what cost?” She pried her face from his chest to stare up at him. “You’re
nothing if not determined, but I’m scared and confused. You have answers to my
questions, but I won’t hound you for them
as you so eloquently stated. I just thought we got past this. I thought you
knew I would never insult or condemn you for whatever it is you did.”
“And I thought
you knew not to push me too fucking hard.” His deep voice sent shivers of
unease down her spine. “I have to keep certain parts of my past to myself.”
“Whatever.” Mia
finally pushed against his chest for freedom and stomped to the stairwell door.
