Bossy Biker


Lark Avery - 2019
    But he made me an offer I couldn’t refuse—three days, no strings, and all the pie he could eat. I might have sworn off men, but it’s hard to say no to the beast of a man with the ability to make my panties disappear with a single glance. But the one thing I won’t be serving up is my heart. Been there, done that, have the hideous wedding dress to prove it. Come Monday, the rough and wild biker will ride out of town and out of my life forever. Unless he can convince me that making room for him in my heart and my small town life is easy as apple pie. Author’s Note: If you don’t like stories about bikers and jilted brides packed with pie references, go eat a salad. If you do, prepare to have your heart melted and your kindle burst into flames. Proceed at your own risk.

A live-in nanny would ensure Dolly got the best care possible when I wasn’t with her. And when I saw Emma for the first time I didn’t just see a caretaker for Dolly. I saw a woman who had every caveman instinct in me rising up like a primal beast. I felt possession and need for Emma the likes of which I’d never experienced before. I didn’t just want a nanny anymore, I wanted Emma … all of her. She might think this was just another job, but before our time was up Emma would realize she was mine and I wasn't letting her go.
