“Kau ingin menyelamatkannya dariku?” suara Xavier begitu dingin, namun berdesing di telinga Hazel seperti pisau yang diasah. “Kalau begitu, serahkan dirimu padaku.” Hazel terperangah, “Brengsek! Kau pikir ini semacam transaksi kotor? Aku bukan barang yang bisa kau tawar!” Xavier perlahan mendekat, menghapus jarak di antara mereka. Dengan kasar dan mendominasi, ia mencium Hazel dengan penuh gairah. Sebuah penanda, seolah berkata, 'kau milikku sekarang.' Hazel terhentak, tubuhnya gemetar karena kaget dan marah. Tapi Xavier hanya menyeringai puas, seperti predator yang tahu mangsanya mulai terperangkap. “Kau harus bertanggung jawab atas perbuatanmu ini…” bisiknya di telinga Hazel, suaranya rendah dan menggetarkan saat Xavier melanjutkan. “...kucing liarku.” __ Awalnya, Hazel hanya ingin membantu saudaranya dari pria bernama Xavier.

Dalam permainan kekuasaan yang kejam, dan hasrat yang tak bisa dijelaskan, Hazel menyadari satu hal, semakin ia membenci Xavier, semakin kuat belenggu yang pria itu lilitkan di sekelilingnya.

He shouldn’t have imagined her lying naked on his bed. She shouldn’t have imagined his devilishly handsome face between her legs. But it was too late. Kiara began noticing Ethan's washboard abs when he hopped out of the pool, dripping wet after swim practice. Ethan began gazing at Kiara’s golden skin in a bikini as a grown woman instead of the girl next door he grew up with. That kiss should have never happened. It was just one moment in a lifetime of moments, but they both felt its power. They knew the thrumming in their veins and desperation in their bodies might give them all they ever wanted or ruin everything if they followed it. Kiara and Ethan knew they should have never kissed. But it's too late to take that choice back, so they have a new one to make. Fall for each other and risk their friendship or try to forget one little kiss that might change everything. PREVIEW: “If you don’t want to kiss me then... let’s swim.” “Yeah, sure.” “Naked.” “What?” “I always wanted to try skinny dipping. And I really want to get out of these clothes.” “What if someone catches you... me, both?” “We will be in the pool, Ethan. And no one can see us from the living room.” I smirked when I said, “Unless you want to watch me while I swim, you can stay here.” His eyes darkened, and he looked away, probably thinking the same when I noticed red blush creeping up his neck and making his ears and cheeks flush. Cute. “Come on, Ethan. Don’t be a chicken...” “Fine.” His voice was rough when he said, “Remove that sweater first.”

From New York Times bestselling author Krista Lakes, comes a sexy standalone novel about the baddest bad boy doctor and the sweet little nurse that he falls for. When I left my small hometown years ago, I never expected to come back. I certainly never expected that when I did, I'd be working for him. He's the town's doctor. He's supposed to be a respectable member of society, a pillar for the community. He's supposed to have come a long way from the bad boy who rode a motorcycle in high school. But he hasn't. One glance from those lustful eyes looking at me tells me that he has the same voracious appetites that he did when we were younger. Only it's not quite the same stare. It's more urgent. It's more intense. I'm not the same nerdy girl who tutored him. I've grown up, developed fertile curves that I know he finds irresistible. In this small town, rumors travel fast, and the family doctor can't be seen as a player. So he does try to resist. And I do too. But with every smoldering glance and moment of sexual tension, we find our barriers breaking down. After a stressful night of touch-and-go baby delivery, a moment of elation overcomes our inhibitions. It seems like maybe we'll need to confront those rumors sooner rather than later, especially before I begin to show the results of that night. Can I give this doctor the family he has always desired?
