When I let my most embarrassing secret slip to the person I wanted it kept from most of allโฆ
Damn you, tequila.
Iโm a grown woman. I turned thirty this year, and Iโve been running my own business for the last decade, a dream I made a reality all on my own. I have an amazing group of friends. Life is good. Iโm happy.
Well, except for one little problemโฆ Iโm still a virgin.
How did this happen? How did I manage to live this long without ever making it past second base? I donโt know. Maybe it just never felt right. Maybe I was waiting for something. Or someone.
When local football star Foster McKenna moves into my bed & breakfast for a long stay while his own house is being built, I know itโs him. Heโs the one Iโve been waiting for. Iโm finally ready to get rid of this V-card, once and for all, and Foster is just the man to divest me of it. Iโve been crushing on him for months, and now that weโre here, all alone in this big houseโฆ
But when a little liquid courage turns into a full-on bender, I accidentally let my secret slip. And all the things I liked about Fosterโโhis honesty, his integrity, his kindness and strength of willโโturn out to be the bane of my existence. Despite being obviously attracted to me, he wonโt give me what I want. Heโs trying to protect me. From him. From myself.
Well, screw that. If he wonโt rid me of this godforsaken virginity, Iโll find someone who will. Then maybe heโll see me as a woman, and not some fragile flower he needs to protect.

๐๐๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ข๐ They bet me she would turn my world upside down. I took that bet. Thereโs no way Iโll fall for the heiress who is more obsessed with her hair than her safety. Yes, thatโs the pot calling the kettle black. I carry a comb on me at all times, and the guys love to razz me for it. But looking good isnโt a crime. So Iโm a little obsessed with my hair. Yes, I like good facial creams and moisturizers. But no one ever got shot for holding a comb. However, this woman could very well be the death of me. Long legs, killer body, and the chemistry between usโฆ I canโt keep my hands off. Iโm bound to get fired. And if it werenโt for this damn stalker sending her creepy letters, I might throw up my hands and walk away just to save my sanity. But I have to be here. And the longer Iโm here, the more Iโve come to realize that there is no walking away. Iโm gonna lose that damn bet.
Loss has scarred my life. Iโve trained relentlessly, endured unimaginable pain for one goalโto face the beast who watched me, who came for me. But took my family instead.
Thereโs nothing I wonโt do for vengeance.
Until three sinful and unhinged monsters find me, emerging from the shadows with sharp teeth, and with claws that could pull apart my life as easily as they do the buttons on my dress.
They think they can break me… Absurd.
Yet Iโm caught in their twisted war in a world in ruins and fraying at the edges. They wonโt leave me alone, insisting I belong to them. That theyโll make me irrevocably theirs.
Resisting the fantasies they promise grows harder with every passing day, and it scares me how easily Iโve started thinking of them as my own monsters.
But I remind myself I obey no one. Especially when Iโm starting to suspect that they had a hand to play in my familyโs death.
They arenโt the first monsters Iโve faced. Theyโll most certainly be the lastโฆ
Lisa Shelby is an international bestselling contemporary romance author. Sheโs also a self-proclaimed love geek and cake-pop addict. Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, this is still where Lisa calls home with her husband and their dogs. When she isnโt writing her next happily ever after, you can find Lisa with her husband traveling, listening to live music, and impatiently waiting for her next FaceTime call with her son, who is currently deployed with the United States Marine Corps.
Iโve known Mia Powell since the day she was born.
Sheโs my sisterโs best friend, my momโs God-daughter and the mother of the sweetest two-year old Iโve ever met. Even if she won’t reveal who his father is.
When she unexpectedly needs a place to stay, I donโt hesitate to offer up my house on the family ranch. However, I didnโt anticipate Miaโs new boss mistaking me for her husband and the father of her child.
The secrets between us may keep us apart in the real world, but a fake relationship… that’s a role I’m happy to play for her.
At least until the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur.
I never shouldโve stolen that first kiss. Never should have thought one night would get her out of my system. Never should have grown so attached to her little boy.
When this is all over, Mia and her son will walk away with my heart.
It doesnโt matter though, itโs always belonged to her.
Tragedy changes a man. Turns a good guy into something unrecognizable. They gunned down my parents and now revenge and brutality are the only things I understand. I want blood on my hands. I want to wreak havoc on everything and everyone around me. I know I need help. I know sheโs the only one capable.

If only heโd stay there.
The infuriating man starts pushing for more, lots more, and the worst part is she wants to give it all to him including her heart.
Do you really like baking, or is that something you made up so women would find you endearing?โ โNo, I enjoy it. Itโs relaxing.โ He picks up his burger and meets my gaze. โYou really like fishing?โ โI love it, or rather, I love ice fishing. Myโโ I cut myself off. โYour?โ โWhen I was growing up, I would go with my best friendโs dad and him almost every weekend in the winter. There is something magical about being in that little hut, waiting for a fish we would cook right there after pulling it out of the water.โ I shrug. โI havenโt gone in a long time, but that is one of my favorite memories from when I was a kid.โ โHave you ever gone deep-sea fishing?โ โNo, have you?โ โI go whenever I get the chance.โ His gaze wanders over my face. โWhat are you doing tomorrow?โ โNothing. I have the day off.โ โDo you want to go out fishing with me?โ โAre you serious?โ โI never joke about fishing.โ โThen, yeah. That sounds like fun.โ โAll right.โ He sets his burger down and takes his cell phone out of his pocket. I watch him type something, and then he sets it aside and resumes eating until it dings a moment later. After he picks it up and checks the screen, his eyes meet mine. โDoes eight work for you?โ โSure.โ I dunk one of my fries into some ketchup. Dropping his gaze, he quickly texts something back before lifting his burger once more. โWeโll meet the charter company I use in the morning, and theyโll take us out.โ โIt must be nice to be rich and famous,โ I joke, then cringe because itโs obvious that who he is is a sensitive topic for him. โSorry, I shouldnโt have said that.โ โDonโt be.โ He shrugs. โI deal with that kind of shit from my family all the time.โ โThey give you a hard time about it?โ โConstantly.โ He smiles. โMy brother is the worst.โ โSo, when you say you play pro hockey, Iโm guessing that means youโre pretty good.โ โI donโt suck.โ His smile is tinged with a bit of cockiness. โI donโt know much about hockey. How long have you been playing?โ โSince I was a kid. My dad bought me my first pair of skates when I was four. I joined my first team when I was seven and have been playing ever since. Youโll have to come to a game when the season starts up.โ โIโm not really a fan of sporting events.โ I hated watching Kirk play football, so I avoided his games like the plague, which probably made me a pretty crappy girlfriend. I just didnโt enjoy the violent aspects of the sport and would sit there the whole time with a pit in my stomach, knowing that one wrong hit could cause irrevocable damage. And knowing what little I do about hockey, I imagine it would be the same thing. โWhat sports do you like?โ โNone.โ I tip my head to the side. โThatโs a lie. That sport they play in the Olympics, where they sweep that black ball thing with brooms down the ice, is pretty cool.โ โCurling is not a sport.โ โItโs in the Olympics, so Iโd guess theyโd disagree with you on that topic.โ I listen to him laugh, the deep sound just as attractive as he is, especially when his eyes crinkle at the corners. The dimple in his left cheek, which I didnโt notice before, shows ever so slightly. Ignoring the flutter in my lower belly, I focus on eating and just enjoying his company. Being friends is safe, but there is no way Iโll entertain more than that with an apparently famous hockey player who has women throwing themselves at him.
**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, itโs an introduction to an authorโs world. And for fans, itโs a bonus book in the authorโs series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**
