Blaze


Leah Wilde - 2016
    Another day, another time, I might've laughed. But not today. Not now. There was business to take care of. I cut right to the chase. Ivan, my former business partner and mob boss extraordinaire, had tried to have me killed. I'd survived the assassination attempt, but now, there was a Russian hitman locked up in the basement of the Kings of Hell clubhouse. I needed someone to translate. That's where she came in. Her. Julia Danvers, professor of Russian history and linguistics. At first glance, I thought she was prim, proper, a princess in an ivory tower. But every layer I peel away reveals something more. Skin I want to stroke. A body I want to squeeze. A mouth I want to force wide open while she moans beneath me. She doesn't belong in my world. She's far too fragile. But I'm going to drag her, kicking and screaming… …right into the heart of the blaze. Blaze is a full-length, standalone romance novel with steamy hot sex, strong language, a happily ever after ending, and NO CLIFFHANGERS.
