    Lawman Lincoln Hayes is back in Simple, Texas, to repay a debt. As a delinquent youth, Lincoln was on a fast-track to prison, but the two old cowboys who ran the boys’ ranch taught him good wins over evil, so Lincoln made damn sure he became the good guy—his way of making amends for a death he believes he should have prevented. Now the two old cowboys have gotten themselves tangled up in a missing person’s case and Lincoln is going to prove their innocence come hell or high water. The last thing he has time for is babysitting some spoiled senator’s daughter who has decided to play deputy Daisy Duke in designer boots and a tiara. But his boss makes it clear, if Lincoln ever wants a promotion, he’ll do the senator’s bidding and become Dixie’s bodyguard...and guarding Dixie’s body turns out to be much more than Lincoln bargained for.Dixie Leigh Meriwether has absolutely zero interest in law enforcement. But when her father refuses to relinquish her inheritance until she goes to law school, Dixie goes on the offensive and becomes a small town deputy. Law school, law officer… close enough. At least close enough to drive her dad crazy and force him to give her the money so she can start her pageant consulting business. How to walk in heels without tripping, she knows. Fighting crime, not so much. But she has time on her side…that is until the town sheriff is put on leave for misconduct and Dixie is left in charge. Worse, a no-nonsense ranger is now sharing her office—a sexy ranger who doesn’t fall for her sweet-as-Texas-tea charm. So Dixie sets out to prove she’s not all ditzy glitter. She can do her job and do it well. But in the process, she’ll discover that she loves protecting her little town...almost as much as she loves a certain Texas lawman. When Dixie finds out Lincoln’s interest in her is coerced by her father, she disappears faster than a plate of fresh baked cookies at a church picnic—falling right into the trap of a killer. Now it’s Lincoln to the rescue. But can he get there in time and save the one woman who can heal his bad boy heart?

    Until he found out about every last dark desire, every dirty scenario I’d ever dreamed up, and made me act them out with him in real life… Jase King was my boss, and the CEO of King Investments. His sharp, blue eyes pierced my heart like ice. Nothing about him was soft. He radiated strength, power, and cruelty. He was the man I’d been secretly been lusting after ever since I started working for him. The man whom I was completely terrified of, in every way. The very same man who would soon hold the keys to every dark, secret fantasy I’d ever had about him. When I first started writing my little story about a certain girl and her boss, I never in a million years imagined that Jase King would get his hands on it. I should’ve known better. Because Jase got his hands on everything and anything he wanted, including me. And soon, I was living out every filthy detail, every sordid act from my own fictional story, and Jase was controlling it all. But more than that, he was starting to control my heart. I should have known it would lead to disaster. Because unlike the hero of my book, Jase King didn’t do happy endings. And if I couldn’t change his mind, I’d have no one to blame for my inevitable heartbreak but myself…
