NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Opposites do more than just attract in USA Today bestselling author Toni Aleo’s latest Nashville Assassins novel about a very bad boy and the good girl he can’t resist.
The instant Piper Allen sees Erik Titov, she wants him—wants his rock-hard body, sure, but the strength and mystery that lie behind that superstar hockey jock demeanor, too. So when he sidles up to her at a bar and slinks his arm around her waist, she’s lost. What follows is the wildest night of her life . . . followed by inevitable heartbreak the next morning. And then, a few weeks later, a very big surprise: two blue lines on a pregnancy test.
Only a check to the head could make Erik fall for a nice girl like Piper. But since their crazy-sexy night together, he’s been trying to forget about her alluring body by falling into bed with every woman in Nashville, and it’s not working. So when Piper shows up at his house with a baby-bomb to drop, it doesn’t take much for Erik to suggest the nuclear option: marriage. While it’s supposed to be all for show, the second they say “I do,” the ice between them starts to melt into sizzling steam.

Customer Reviews
Loved it
I loved this book couldn't put it down. Piper Allen had seen Erik Titov at one of the family reunion since her sister Harper was married to Jakob who is Eriks older brother. Since that day Piper had fallen in love with Erik, but Erik didn't seem to be interested in Piper and that would break her heart especially when she kept seeing him with different women. One night while being out drinking Erik came up to Piper and after dancing they both decided to leave, but on their way home they both decided to go to her place. After spending the weekend together Piper was in heaven, but when Erik left the next morning he called her and broke her heart. weeks later Piper found out a big news and didn't know if she should tell Erik. Erik kept going out partying getting drunk with different women every night to try to forget Piper, but by doing that he was making the Assassins look bad. After six month had padt by Piper finally told Erik her news and he was in shocked and at the same time angry because he blamed her for the reason why Elli Adler had put him in probation. Erik wanted Piper to help him with his image and to ge him off probation by getting married with the deal to seperate after the baby was born in three months, but Piper hoped that by the time the baby was born he would want to stay with her and be a happy family.
Good read
Fun beach reading
Captivating
I loved this story from start to finish & wanted more of their romance. Throughout the book, I wanted to slap Erik, hug Erik, slap him again. The strength that Toni gave Piper in this was commendable. A lot of women would have walked away forever but she made Piper stand strong. I laughed & cried in this book, just as in the others.
