Connor's partner was murdered, and Connor spent several months in a coma, left with scars, burns and a shattered leg. His colleague, Ed Riggs, was corrupted and blackmailed and is now in prison. Conner was the cop that put him away. He also saved Riggs daughter Erin who he loves. Novak is supposed to be rotting in a maximum security prison, but Connor has just heard of his escape. Novak almost got his vicious claws into Erin once, and if the Feds won't protect her, then Connor will. He's loved Erin for over a decade and has had hot, sexual fantasies about her for all that time. Erin is the only person capable of pushing his lamebrain "hero" button.
Connor doesn't know it, but Erin sees him as her hero, her protector, the man of her dreams. He's intense, intelligent and has a force of will so overwhelming, he sweeps her away. But, her strong and noble Connor turns into a puddle around her. This is a powerful book rife with steamy sex, an imperfect lead character, a nasty villain and a happy ending. The sexual chemistry between the lead characters is hot enough to singe the pages and honest enough to be utterly captivating. | ||
