Four broken pasts. Four chances at redemption. Heat Five years ago, that arrogant pr*ck played me like a fool and broke my heart. Hudson Banks - the dominant, tattooed, womanizing, ex-Marine-turned-billionaire who runs God-knows-what at my late father’s company. Oh, and he’s sexy as all f**k, and he damn well knows it. He’s like a gasoline fire; a scorchingly hot disaster, and if I’m not careful, I’m going to get burned. Burn Tempting. Volatile. Off-limits. He’s the hottest thing that never should have happened to me. It was supposed to be a one-time thing; my one one-night stand - the tattooed, bareknuckle fighter with a body built for sin who I found beaten and bloodied in my elevator that night. He's the one I patched up, the one I took care of, and the one I apparently couldn’t say no to when his mouth touched mine… A one night stand. Just one night, right? Yeah, wrong. He’s my new boss. He’s the best man in this wedding. He’s everywhere, and I can’t escape him. No matter how wrong it might be… Scorch Why does it feel so good to be so bad... The dark, dominant, tattooed Spaniard has all the arrogant machismo of a bullfighter and a body carved out of steel. In my sister’s fairytale romance, he almost destroyed my family. He’s the devil, and I hate him. Until he saves my life, and changed everything. Javier f**king Toro is the last man in the world I expect to find pulling me out of the way of danger. Bad boy? Yeah, no, there’s nothing “boy” about Javier. He’s a man. A very, very bad man. And I can’t resist him, no matter the consequences. Roar I don’t give a f**k if I die tomorrow, as long as I get her tonight. I’ve been to war. I’ve lived in the streets. I’ve beaten the needle, and I’ve looked death in the face and laughed. So what the f*ck do I want with a sassy, smart-mouthed spitfire like Peyton Rivers? There are a thousand reasons I should stay away, beyond the fact that she’s my best friend’s sister. She’s just as broken as me. She’s seen the face of the devil and taken the time to spit in it, and she’s got scars like mine to prove it. Oh, and we’ve been down that road before, and it ended in blood and rain. But like I said, I’m a fighter. You gotta fight for what you want. And Peyton -- the sassy, hard-knocks girl from my past with a body made for sin -- is gonna be mine.

    Never let go. I can’t. Because my dad is more than just the mayor of this small town—he’s a dark twisted jerk who’s kept me prisoner in my own life. But that all changes in one second. A blink of an eye I make my escape. It was supposed to be a quickie. A dirty bathroom escapade to satisfy one need. But these ranchers are offering something I can’t ignore. And it’s more than the idea of freedom. It’s the intense, aching hot, panty-melting connection we share. With the trouble I bring, I should disappear again, but I doubt they’d let that happen. They’ve got me tied up on all fours . . . And it’s exactly where I want to be. Austen/Flynn Desperation makes men do crazy things. We were once competitors. But now we’re business partners—or at least we will be. A dude ranch. It’s ridiculous, but tough times call for it. We’ve got a simple plan. No hurdles. No problems. Until we lay eyes on her… A sassy mouth with thick lips and sweet, tempting curves. She’s supposed to be off limits. , Yeah, right. She had one bad daddy, but now she’s got two new ones who will treat her so good. And if he comes for her, he better be packing more than we are. Cause If he wants a war. He’s gonna get one. The Ranchers Next Door is a standalone flaming-hot, panty-melting, naughty MFM menage romance. If you like buff ranchers and sizzling romance, you’ll love this. No cheating. HEA.
