Close

Clara:

Therapist by day, and exotic dancer by night, I keep my heart closely guarded for good reason. When I meet Lucas Evans at my night job, he screams untrustworthy. With his oozing confidence and sex appeal, I bet he leaves women scattered in his wake.

I have every intention of resisting him. Intimacy is not my greatest strength, and I have secrets to keep, but after one gut-melting kiss, my resolve falters.

Lucas:

Reeling after the death of my brother, I find myself looking for answers at a gentleman's club. When I meet the sexy Clara Evans there, she seems fun and care free, but underneath, there's something guarded about her. And I want to know what it is.

I can't deny the attraction I have to her. But I don't have time to have feelings, never mind relationships. Especially not with the secret I'm keeping.

After the two share a night of passion, their walls start to crack. As they continue to see one another, they begin to bare their scars and overcome their struggles. But their secrets get harder to keep the closer they become. And when the devastating truth is revealed, will they be brought together or torn apart?

"If you think you have this book figured out just by reading the synopsis you will be mistaken…[S.A. McEwen] is not a cotton candy, tie a story up in pretty satin ribbons HEA writer...the road she takes to the HEA is scattered with land mines, not well lit and wonderfully satisfying." Amazon review
