A new, sexy standalone novel from New York
Times Bestsellers, Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward…
The last thing I needed was a live-in bodyguard. And I
definitely didn’t want him. Six foot two, with broad shoulders that were
impossible to ignore and a talent for getting in my way, Wes Callahan was a
walking bad decision.
But when you’re the daughter of a notorious mob boss,
apparently your opinions stop mattering the moment your father ignites another
war. I’d spent my entire life trying to escape that crooked world—new name, new
city, newfound freedom. At least until I was suddenly shacked up with my new
bodyguard.
Wes knew exactly how to push my buttons. He was also
infuriatingly protective. And smart. And funny. And thoughtful when he thought
I wasn’t paying attention. Little by
little, the walls I’d built started to crack, and falling for the bodyguard
became the most dangerous thing I’ve ever done. Because if my father found out,
Wes wouldn’t just lose his job. He’d lose his life.
Getting involved with him was reckless, yet I couldn’t find a way to stop it, no matter how hard I tried. But while I was busy losing my heart, the man who took it was hiding a secret.
My Best Happy Ending by Kate Perry is now live!
I left my hometown twenty years ago with a broken heart and something to prove.
Now I'm back.
Forty.
Feral.
Done pretending and dangerously close to losing control over the one man I never forgot.
Hunter Bailey is Rough and Ready's golden boy turned successful contractor--the blue-collar hero with rough hands, a filthy mouth, and a memory that cuts too deep. We were high school sweethearts once, until one devastating night tore us apart.
I'd wondered if Hunter and I could rekindle our love, but it's been two years and he hasn't made a move.
I'm done waiting.
I know I need to get over the past.
But an unhinged moment turns into a night that should be a mistake.
It doesn't feel that way though.
And Hunter doesn't kiss me like an ex.
He kisses me like a man who never stopped loving me.

Omg is that it? Is this the end of the series? I’m not ready but I also don’t know if I can watch the Stockton family go through any more. And this feels like everything is so perfectly wrapped up. I think I can happily put the book down without any lingering questions. But damn these men have owned me and the ladies they love are so perfectly matched to them it’s been a great ride.
Aspen’s return home with Fallon coinciding with Bishop’s return from the dead had me instantly excited. And the history between those two was hot and sweet. But then there were so many levels to their past that I felt like we were watching an onion being peeled and waiting to see the center.
Bishop was so determined to not just win Aspen over but also to do it on her terms. I couldn’t have respected him more. And I liked that Aspen put certain things in place for everyone’s well being but she didn’t play games. She put Fallon first in her decisions but not without also being the parent and ensuring the best for everyone.
They were such a great couple, the chemistry was perfect and I'm so glad to see everyone get their much deserved happily ever after.

About the Book
He’s the NHL’s most guarded single dad.
She’s the one woman who can’t afford to fall for him.
Tori Wells didn’t fight her way into the NHL just to become another cautionary tale. As a team physical therapist, she lives by strict rules: heal the players, protect her career, and never—ever—cross the line with a hockey player.
Then she’s assigned to Zayden Bishop.
On the ice, he’s untouchable—a French-Canadian superstar with a reputation for being cold, private, and impossible to read. Off the ice, he’s a devoted single father running on discipline, stubbornness, and too little sleep. Until a serious shoulder injury threatens his season—and the stability he’s built for his six-year-old daughter.
Tori is in charge of his rehab. Full oversight. Daily sessions.
No room for mistakes.
No room for attraction.
Except Zayden isn’t what she expected.
The more time they spend together—early mornings, quiet road trips, late-night conversations—the harder it becomes to pretend this is just professional. Because Zayden doesn’t just need his shoulder fixed. He needs someone who sees the man behind the jersey.
And Tori is dangerously close to becoming that someone.
Crossing the line could cost her everything she’s worked for. And Zayden can’t risk bringing anyone into his daughter’s life unless he’s certain they’ll stay.
