Synopsis:
When Gina
Scott kicks the town bully out of her bar, Nate Grayson glimpses the fragile
woman under her tough façade. Though he wants her, she’s twelve years his
senior. She’ll never take him seriously, right? Wrong. That night after
closing, he loses his virginity—and his heart—to her. Since they live in a
small town and tongues wag, Gina insists they keep their relationship a secret.
He agrees…for a spell. But six months later, Nate is ready to tie the knot.
After an
abusive marriage, Gina Scott diligently protected her jaded heart for a decade.
But after just one night, Nate burrows under her defenses. He might be

out. She aches to surrender her heart and say yes to their future…but she’s
keeping a dark secret—one that would destroy the happily ever after Nate
deserves. She resolves to enjoy their shared pleasure for as long as it lasts
while bracing for the day he walks away.
But before he
can convince Gina they belong together, an evil from her past unleashes his
terrible revenge. Will she ever have the chance to tell Nate that she’s been in
love with him all along?

Excerpt:
Nate had spent the
day rotating the horses on the family ranch to ensure that each child attending
Camp Melody—a respite for terminally ill and special-needs kids—would have a
fresh mount. Though it was early April, the day was unseasonably warm. He’d
worked up a hell of a sweat saddling, unsaddling, and grooming the steeds. When
dinner was done, he’d been anxious to grab a shower and head into Haven. But
brothers Nash and Noble had seized both bathrooms, forcing Nate to wait an
extra thirty minutes to scrub the scent of horse and sweaty grime from his
body.
It wasn’t until he
hit town and pulled to a stop in front of the Hangover that anticipation and
excitement replaced the lingering annoyance he’d felt toward his brothers.
After pocketing his keys, Nate strode toward the bar, beyond ready to lay eyes
on the sexy woman he’d been dreaming about all day…Gina.
But when he stepped
through the door to find his woman
wrapped in the arms of his twin brother, rage born of jealousy erupted within.
As he watched Noble place a kiss on the top of Gina’s head, a fire of pure
possessive rage thundered through Nate’s veins.
“Get your fucking
hands off her,” he bellowed, eating up the floor in long, angry strides.
“Uh-oh.” A
mischievous grin lit up Noble’s face, followed by a playful wink. “I think
we’ve been caught, darlin’.”
Logically, Nate
knew his brother was simply baiting him, and that Gina had absolutely no
interest in his twin. Emotionally, none of that mattered. Noble had crossed the
line and Nate was three seconds away from pounding his twin to dust. Nate and
his five siblings had grown up teasing, tormenting, and ultimately beating the
hell out of each other on a regular basis. He’d whooped Noble’s ass plenty of
time and could damn well do it again.
“Caught? Caught doing what?” Gina blanched.
She peeled out of Noble’s grasp, landing a sharp elbow to his ribs. “Get your
paws off me, asshole! I’m not one of your bed bunnies. And get the fuck out
from behind my bar.”
Nate was proud of
his feisty woman for taking his dickhead brother to task, but he still wanted
to beat the bastard ugly for touching her. Noble’s grin only widened as he
hurried around the bar and sidled onto the barstool alongside Nash, who was
smirking.
As if sensing
Nate’s rage, Gina placed her hand on his chest to placate him before flashing
him a gentle smile. “Would you mind hauling out another keg from the cooler for
me, please?”
“You know I
wouldn’t.” He narrowed his eyes at Noble. “Touch her again, asswipe, and you
die. Got it?”
All traces of humor
left the man’s face. He raised his hands in surrender. “I was just messing
around, lover boy. No need to get your tampon stuck sideways.”
His muscles grew
taut. Grabbing Noble’s shirt, Nate hauled him up off his seat. Fury rippled outward
as they faced off, nose-to-nose. “Mess around with someone else. Gina’s
off-limits.”
“Chill out, man.
Christ, I didn’t mean anything by it.”
Nate released his
brother with a powerful shove and an evil glare.
Nash let out a low
whistle and slapped Noble on the back. “You just got shit on.”
“Shut the fuck up,
or I’ll shit on you,” he countered, smacking Nash upside the back of the head.
Ignoring his idiot
brothers, Nate exhaled a ragged breath before locking his stare on Gina. The
rage inside him instantly melted, replaced by the fiery hunger of demand. She
flashed him a carnal smile, then turned and headed toward the back room. As he
followed behind her, Nate’s stare was glued to the sexy sway of her ass. He
moved in close behind her, Nate cupped her tempting orbs in both palms. Once
they’d made their way around the corner, Gina abruptly stopped. Pivoting, she
wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed in tight against his chest. Nate’s
cock roared to life as her hard nipples scraped the flesh beneath his shirt.
Gripping her ass tighter, he slanted his lips over hers, rocking his
lengthening erection between her legs, and swallowed her gasp.
With a tiny giggle,
she pulled back. A provocative smirk tugged her lips. “I missed you today,
too.”
Lifting onto her
tiptoes, she pressed her lips to his.
Nate had kissed her
a million times. Still, every time his mouth met hers felt like the first.
Sliding a hand to her strawberry-blonde curls, he fisted her mane and tilted
her head back. He saw her mutual need, raw and scorching in her pale blue
eyes…could practically taste the desire pulsing through her system. It was all
the incentive he needed. Pressing his mouth to hers again, he delved
desperately past her lips and swirled his tongue deep inside her heated wet
silk.
