Sexy Beast

Everett Calhoun was born bad. But only he can make her feel so good…

Billionaire Everett Calhoun has built his life on control. In business, he’s ruthless. In the bedroom, he’s dominant. And he’s never let anyone—especially his best friend, Freya Johnson—see the beast lurking beneath his polished exterior. Freya is the one person who sees the good in him, and he’ll do anything to protect her from the darkness he hides.

Freya has always been ‘one of the guys,’ but with a hen party looming and a string of unsatisfying relationships behind her, she’s ready to take a risk. She asks Everett for a favour—one that will push the boundaries of their friendship and force them to confront the simmering tension that’s been building between them for years.

What begins as a simple lesson in pleasure quickly spirals into something more. Freya finds herself captivated by the intensity Everett brings to every moment, a force that both excites and unnerves her. For Everett, it’s Freya’s quiet strength and the vulnerability she tries to hide that break through the barriers he’s spent a lifetime building. But as their connection deepens, the shadows of Everett’s past and his relentless need for control threaten to unravel everything they’ve discovered together.

Now, Everett must face the ultimate question: will surrendering to his desires cost him the one person he can’t afford to lose—or lead to a love he never expected?

She’s his best friend. He’s her greatest temptation. But neither of them expected to fall in love.

About the author

Jackie writes dark, emotional stories with alpha heroes who've just got the world to their liking only to have it blown wide apart by their kick-ass heroines.

She lives in Auckland, New Zealand, with her husband the inimitable Dr Jax and two kids. When she's not torturing alpha males, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, wasting time on social media, or forced to mountain biking with her husband.
