Take Me Back


Summer Brooks - 2018
    Now he’s back. After nine years, there are three reasons I should stay away. For one, Matt is my boss. On top of that, he is my older brother’s best friend and business partner at the most prestigious law firm in the country. And to make things worse, Matt doesn’t know about our son. Matt Dawson, with his cool blue eyes and dominating persona, can send shivers down my spine with a single touch. His forearms are stronger than my resolve to resist him. And I know that he won’t stop until he makes me gasp and tremble with pleasure again. Hiding our son’s existence complicates things, but it’s my brother who is the gravest concern. If he discovers that Matt is the father of my child—or even that Matt and I are together—he would be angry enough to kill. And murder is something he is more than capable of doing. But Matt would go to unimaginable lengths to protect his family.
