     Stone (Walk of Shame 2nd Generation #1) My name is Stone Ridge and I’m a fucking go getter… I set my sights on what I want and go after it. Not giving up easily is what I’m known for. Well… that and shaking my dick for money. I take pride in knowing I’m damn good at both. Screaming girls everywhere, willing to drop their panties for me and toss their money my way, yet there’s only one girl that I can’t get out of my fucking head.

So much more than my asshole father could ever give his family. As fun as it is to have it easy, knowing that I can have any girl I desire, it's no longer enough. I need much more than that.

To be touched by a real man. Eden Quinn… I need a chance for her to see me as something other than just a male fucking stripper– a dirty temptation that knows how to make a whole room of women hot and wet.

This is a novella-length book of approximately 100 pages, though the page-count below and on your e-reader may show differently. For a limited time, this new release edition contains additional content for further reader enjoyment, as a thank you for your support.
