lost in texas
Sandy Appleyard - 2021
The city girl in a strange predicament. The scoundrel that thinks fiancés come with a price tag.Never, ever date a client. That’s what I keep telling myself. Until Terence Daniels walks into my office. Fine. I caved. Biggest mistake of my life. Next thing I know I’m fleeing Louisiana, hunkering down with my best friend in Dallas. I’m starving, terrified, so confused, and I’m thinking…things just cannot get any worse. Until Kate’s car breaks down outside this bar that looks like their patrons kill women with sticks. We have no choice but to go inside. What I find in there is nothing that I would expect. What unfolds in the coming weeks are more mistakes. Better ones. And then one that I’ll forever call my favorite mistake.***After the day I’ve had, I’d sooner eat my boot than cook something. My brother Zack agrees, so we go to this hillbilly bar, where we keep a tab. One cranky woman and her sidekick show up, looking like lawyers among us cowboys, and we ask if we can help. The cranky one thinks we’re trying to steal her car, but the other one softens. All is fine and dandy until she hits us with something that would shock a groundhog back into his burrow until hell freezes over. The look in her eyes is what gets me. Fear. I can’t stand that in a woman. Especially this one, with the tough exterior, making out like she’s fine when inside she’s a crumbling mess. Never figured she’d turn things around like she does. Never figured I’d be the one to help her put it all back together. Never figured she’d see right through me yet show me the way in a way that nobody else has.…and for the life of me, I never figured that she’d inadvertently bring so much danger to the ranch.HEA (Happily Ever After)Ranch romanceCowboy romanceMedium heatCourse languageCliffhanger ending
Beyond Tonight
C.J. Thomas - 2016
Billionaire Wesley Reid is here to boss me now. The question is… Do I want to do it missionary, or be tied up? My boyfriend said we were finished and told me to hit the road. So I packed up and moved to L.A. The place where dreams are made. That was where I met him—billionaire businessman, Wesley Reid. Sexy and charming, he had me seeing stars at first sight. His dominant side quickly became apparent when he asked me to humiliate a famous movie star in front of hundreds. And I forgot everything I promised myself I wouldn’t do when he touched me for the first time. I couldn’t push him out of my mind. So when he took me out of squalor and into his life of luxury, I wanted him even more. But I had to get him to see me as more than just a quick lay. And his best friend had just the thing to make that happen. I did the unthinkable. I agreed to work for him. Now, not only did he keep me blindfolded and bound inside the bedroom, but he bossed me at work, too. We walked the slippery slope between pleasure and pain, pushing each other beyond what we thought was possible. But maybe I did push him too far and we were done for good. So when my ex wanted me back, I had to consider the possibility of having already lost Wes, the love of my life, forever. I had two choices: On my back or blindfolded. With the one I was screwed. The other, I was f**ked.
