Lainie: The Palmer Sisters Book 1


Kayt Miller - 2018

Keeton Gustafson is a badass biker dude and owner of Gustafson Custom Motorcycles. He's also Lainie Palmer-Bottoms's muse. The thing is, the second Keeton gets a look at the curvy beauty, it's him that's inspired. At their first encounter, they discover they need each other. She needs research material for her novel. He needs to do her on his desk. Can two people from different worlds find common ground? Keeton thinks so, but Lainie’s not so sure. Each book is a stand-alone with a HEA but because the stories overlap and intertwine, it’s best to read them in order.
