Excerpt

Pressing the doorbell for Olivia's place, I step back. Only the porch light is on. No light shines from inside. I can't imagine she and her roommate are already in bed. I raise my fist and knock, a soft three-tap, just in case.

From the other side, I hear a soft meow: Dio.

"Hey buddy." He meows again. I picture him rubbing his cheek against the door. "I guess no one else is home. I'll see you later."

Turning, I chuckle. Olivia's got me talking to her cat now.

She's got me doing all kinds of things—like picking up her father. I wanted to see her before I left, even if only to wish her luck for her first day at DCF. Maybe see if there's anything I should know before meeting him, or if there's anything she wants me to scope out before she meets him.

She isn't home, though, so there's not much I can do, other than go back to the club house and try to get some sleep.

I walk slowly back to the Screamin' Eagle. The last thing I want to do right now is go to bed, mostly because I don't want to get up at the ass crack of dawn to drive all the way to Lewisburg. Traveling by train would take longer, and neither my President or Treasurer were willing to pony up for a plane ticket. Worst of all, I have to take a cage. It'll be more comfortable than riding all the way down, but the more I ride, the less I want to be in a car.

I swing onto the bike and grab my helmet. Securing it in place, my fingers pause. Olivia might be working tonight. That would explain why she isn't home. There's also a chance she's at my cousin's, but I'd rather not ride all over town trying to track her down. If she's already at the club, I might be able to talk her into staying the night. That way she can crash in my room after work, and I can see her before I go. Maybe even see her naked.

Two birds, one stone.

With that happy thought, I fire up the Screamin' Eagle, wincing a little as I imagine poor Dio hiding from the noise. Ever since Eli, he's been so skittish. If Olivia hadn't already killed him, I'd kill the motherfucker myself. Who the hell tries to kill a tiny, defenseless kitten?

I wish she'd told me what was going on before it got that bad.

That's Olivia for you. She can take care of herself, which is one of the things I love most about her.

I nearly stomp on the back brake.

I love her.

It's a whole-body realization. The road tips upward, the bike falls down into the sky. I float for a moment, fingers and toes tingling. Then I slam back into my seat, the bike firmly on 63. Somehow I still have my balance.

I have to tell her. I've never been good at keeping my feelings to myself. My father's headstone is proof of that. It's either tell her, or walk away, and I already know I can't do that.

I can't tell her, either.

She shut me out when I suggested we move in together. I can only imagine what she'll do if I tell her I love her.

I love her.

The more I repeat it, the more woozy my stomach is, like I've had a few drinks and I'm warmed all the way through. At the same time, it makes me need a drink.

There's a good chance I don't really love her.

I have no idea what it feels like to be in love. I know what it's like to love someone—my little cousin. I know what it means to be loved—my cousin again. But the odds that I wholly, truly love the first woman I laid eyes on after getting out—not to mention fucked in the back of a station wagon—are slim to none.

I've been lonely for so long, I'm just imprinting on her.

That's got to be it. Because there's no way someone like me can really love her, not now. What I think I feel for Olivia can't be real.

Not after twenty years of crushing in noses with my fists. I don't deserve it.

She doesn't deserve me.

Anton Scalene

I was born in hell, raised in a nightmare.

I was fifteen when I killed for the first time.

As a child, my dreams were about climbing out of that hell, of being on top of the pile of bodies and not one of them.

I live in the shadows, find solace in the darkness.

Until her.

A chance meeting, a fleeting moment…

Her innocence beguiles me.

I want her, but to have her would destroy the very part of her I crave.

And even knowing that, I can’t stay away, until my past threatens to drag her into my nightmare.

Letting her go is the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but a demon has no business falling in love with an angel.



 
Excerpt

I didn’t drag it out. Staring him right in the face, I drew the blade across his neck. His hand went to his throat, blood immediately coating it, his eyes going wide with fear. I watched as he realized it was the end for him, watched as his eyes dimmed, listened to his death rattle. I didn’t move until his soulless eyes stared up empty. Only then did I climb off him, toss the knife on the floor, and strolled from the room. Removing the gloves, I grabbed the duffel, pulling the door closed behind me. Down the street, I tossed the gloves into the trashcan fire the homeless were using to stay warm. The boy I had been died that night and Anton Scalene was born.

She’s not a party girl anymore…

Sophie Dean has worked long and hard to shed the rock-n-roll bad girl reputation she earned at college. With her rebellious days behind her, Sophie now uses the prestige of the Dean family name and money to bankroll humanitarian aid. The only part of her past she can’t leave behind is the major crush she has on Finn Jenkins. When danger from an unknown quarter threatens Sophie’s latest undertaking and she needs protection, fate steps in and delivers a second chance with Finn.

He's fought his feelings for too long…

When Finn returns home after two tours of duty as a Navy SEAL, it doesn’t take long to realize he still has feelings for Sophie, who is no longer the irresponsible young woman he walked away from all those years ago. An assignment to escort Sophie and an orphaned Pakistani boy to the Pacific Northwest should have been an easy mission—and it’s the perfect opportunity to get re-acquainted with Sophie and finally confess how he feels. But when someone threatens the orphan in their care, Sophie and Finn must set aside their feelings to save the child’s life…and their own.

Together, they’ll have to risk it all.

Excerpt

Sophie perused him carefully. She tracked his entire body from his overgrown military haircut to his favorite boots. It was good that SEALs had incredible mastery over their bodies or her baby blues lingering on his stomach and groin would be a problem, a very specific problem that sparked to life with the hope of having her full attention.
 
“Let me translate Finn speak. You probably have twenty to thirty stitches and it is a big deal.”
 
Despite his intensive training—and practice—in lying under interrogation, he never got anything past this meddling woman. And why did he hope she’d always be meddling in his life? “Soph, all you need to know is that I’m fine. Unless, of course you want to play nurse and examine me?”
 
Sophie’s eyes widened, her forehead furrowed as she tugged on her pillow soft lower lip. “Nice try, Jenkins. I know you’d never let me near you.”
 
Finn couldn’t breathe. His heart rate ratcheted up five knots. The way Sophie said it was like a question, not her usually flippant “whatever” tone. Was she hoping for a different answer than his usual? A man could dream.
 
She brushed away a curl that had fallen out the ponytail she’d pulled her hair into. And Finn couldn’t look away from the feminine gesture. Hunger jamming his throat.
 
“Did someone shoot you or stab you this time?”
 
He didn’t see any purpose in discussing how close he came to bleeding out and how many times he had been close to dying on this last mission. Or the previous ones this past decade and more. Tender and sensitive, Sophie kept him on edge. He didn’t want her seeing him as weak, or vulnerable. And to be honest, though he knew he should think of Sophie as a strong, resolute woman—as she’d proved herself during her kidnapping—he didn’t want his recollections of potential death and pain to flood her mind. “Not your problem.”
 
Sophie uncrossed her leg and leaned back in the chair, not fooling Finn for a minute on how he hurt her feelings. Her tell was the way her eyes widened and she chewed her lower lip, a habit she’d learned from her heartless bastard of a father. “What did Mr. Brophy say about Tariq? Did he say how he knew Tariq’s Uncle Parvez? And isn’t it an amazing coincidence that Jeremy Brophy lives on Orcas Island?”
 
Finn didn’t believe in coincidences but he kept his thoughts to himself. He didn’t need another talk by Sophie on serendipity and synchronicity.
 
Sophie leaned forward, her eyes narrowing on his face. “I’m not sure what exactly is going on, but your last mission must have been a doozy.” She threw herself back in the seat. “Oops, I forgot. I’m not supposed to mention it. It’s classified.”
 
This was another reason Finn hadn’t declared his feelings for Sophie. She could never be a military wife, never tolerate all the classified secrets he had to keep. Oh, and Sophie was the daughter of a tech billionaire who was a press magnet. Not exactly a low-profile wife for a Special Forces undercover operator. Finn didn’t expect her father would ever approve of Finn’s prospects. And Finn never wanted to be the man who married her for money. For all those reasons he’d be hesitant about approaching Sophie. Yet since her kidnapping, he’d been battling all those negatives with the desire to keep her safe in his arms.
 
“Which is it? How badly you were injured or you don’t want to talk about your conversation with Jeremy Brophy?”
 
“With your skills, you should work for the CIA.”
 
It was hard to describe the way Sophie’s forehead bunched together and her shoulders tightened, still he always knew when he’d crossed a line.
 
“Finn, why are you being more of a jerk than usual?”
 
Because his wound was aching and the reunion he imagined with Sophie the entire time he was lying in the hospital was playing out with another man touching her, whispering sexy stuff into her ear.
