He's got people to protect, rivals to keep at bay, an arms trade business to keep afloat, women to use at his every whim, and above all, he supports the right to arm bears. When a new potential human client is thrown into the mix, Silas braces himself for a rough ride, but never expected to have the extra task of saving a sexy, mysterious woman on day one of the business deal. Sabrina is a complication, a headache he does not want to deal with right now. So why is his bear growling to come out and claim her? Sabrina Rizzo is no stranger to the underworld. She's been at the sidelines of violence, crime and shady deals all her life, no matter how much she tries to outrun it. After her reality hits a new low, someone tries to forcibly remove her from the shaky ground she's standing on. Then she meets Silas, and everything changes. The mix of fear, tension and attraction between them is dizzying, but fighting their magnetic pull can put her in more danger. This is why she just has three questions: How much does he know? What does he really want? Is Silas Corrigan her savior or her kidnapper? AUTHORS NOTE: HEA, stand-alone, explicit love scenes, explicit language. Recommended for 18+ readers.
