Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something about Nick O'Malley gives my middle finger a boner - despite his sexy Irish accent, which seems to give my nips boners (but that's beside the point). I'm not sure why I can't stand him. It might be the man bun. Or the arrogant way he speaks to me. Maybe it's the way he looks at me like he's starving, and I'm an irresistible snack cake. Well, F that! I might be small and delicious, but I am not on the menu - for him or anyone else. When my naughty pup causes a slight fender bender, the cocky dog trainer claims he knows just what I need, and much to my dismay, he's right. And if you ever tell him I said that, I'll junk punch you. But now, the more time I spend with him, the more I start to see a different side of him. Maybe all those explosive words between us were more like fireworks. I can't act on this simmering attraction, no matter how tempting it may be. Aside from being off the D, the threatening text messages and unwanted "gifts" showing up remind me why staying clear of Nick is necessary. He's not safe if he's stays because a stupid accident from my past is still haunting me. Except Nick doesn't back away from threats. And shockingly enough, he has a protective side I find incredibly hot. But the longer he stays with me, the more danger he's in. I may have dented his bumper, but I can't risk the damage I'll do to his life... or his heart.

Download or read book Forbidden Hero written by Jackie Walker and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-07-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Things that awaken my inner rage monster (in no particular order): The F-nugget who thought it would be fun to try to kidnap me. Throwing me in a trunk? Rude! My oldest brother - For insisting I need constant babysitters since I'm in danger. Oops! Did I say babysitters? I meant bodyguards. Same brother again - For having a ridiculously hot best friend, then assigning him as my primary bodyguard and telepathically forbidding him from dating me, even though I'm starting to suspect that he's seriously crushing on me. (The best friend is crushing, not my brother. Don't be weird.) My brother's best friend (i.e.: my new bodyguard) - For having a jaw so chiseled it could probably slice through a huge block of aged cheddar, and yet, not letting me lick it. (His jaw, not the cheddar. Now you're waking up my rage monster.) My bodyguard's stupid rules - For forbidding me from flirting with him, touching him more than necessary, and kissing him again. Even though he started it! Wine - For having calories. My ex-husband - For breathing. The law - For prohibiting st*bbing. My heart and bodyguard - Both for making me fall in love again... the audacity! Author's Note: Forbidden Hero is a stand-alone romantic comedy mixed with a romantic suspense and is the second book in the Redleg Security series. Each book in the series features a different couple's love story and happily ever after. Although it's not necessary to read all books in the series, for those who love reading all books in order, start with "Heartbreak Hero" to avoid any minor potential spoilers for side plots that may overlap from book to book. This novel is written in alternating first person point of view and contains steamy open-door scenes, profanity, a strong heroine with mild anger issues due to her bumpy past, a hero who will make you laugh one minute and swoon the next (especially when he helps her reclaim her body). There's page-turning action and all the feels, along with a healthy dose of humor. There is an HEA, no cheating, and no "other woman" drama. Tropes are: Brother's Best Friend, Secret Relationship/Forbidden Love, and Friends to Lovers with a dash of forced proximity. Since this is an action-packed, suspenseful, bodyguard novel, it features some content that sensitive readers may like to know about before reading. More details about these topics are available after the Dedication in the front of the e-book and will be posted to my website by publication date.

Download or read book Forbidden written by Suzanne Brockmann and published by Suzanne Brockmann. This book was released on 1997-04-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reissue (Original Publication Date: April 1997) His brother loved her... When Kayla Grey travels from Boston to Montana, the last thing she expects is to find her life in danger from a sudden, treacherous blizzard. And after she’s rescued, she certainly doesn’t expect to share heated, fireside kisses with the handsome, blue-eyed cowboy who saved her life. But then she discovers her hero is the very person she’s flown so far to find—he’s the brother of the man who’d proposed marriage mere weeks before dying in a tragic accident. Montana rancher Cal Bartlett devoted his life to his younger brother, Liam. Ten years older, he’d raised the kid, giving him everything his heart desired, including the top-notch education that helped Liam win his job as a foreign correspondent for a major newspaper—a job that got him killed two long, bleak years ago. But now Kayla—the woman his brother loved, a woman Cal shouldn't desire—has come to ask a favor. She’s heard the whisper of a rumor that Liam is alive—held in a secret prison, deep in the jungles of the tiny nation of San Salustiano. Kayla’s determined to travel to the dangerous, war-torn island with Cal, on the pretense of a romantic vacation, but in truth to search for clues. Together, they’ll risk their lives on the slim hope that Liam might still be alive. It’s an impossibly risky and dangerous journey—and the dead last thing either Cal or Kayla expects is to fall in love along the way.... Set in 1998 in Asylum, Montana, San Salustiano, and Boston, Massachusetts, Forbidden is a full length novel of 50K words or 212 pages. It’s the first in Brockmann’s two-book Bartlett Brothers series. Forbidden was originally published in 1997 by Bantam Loveswept.

His half brother, Shento, was born to the general’s mistress, who threw herself off a cliff in the mountains of Balan only moments after delivering her child. Growing up, each remained ignorant of the other’s existence. In Beijing, Tan enjoyed the best schools, the finest clothes, and the prettiest girls.

Separated by distance and opportunity, Tan and Shento follow the paths that lie before them, while unknowingly falling in love with the same woman and moving toward the explosive moment when their fates finally merge. Brothers, by bestselling memoirist Da Chen, is a sprawling, dynamic family saga, complete with assassinations, love affairs, narrowly missed opportunities, and the ineluctable fulfillment of destiny.
