Their
chance encounter resulted in a steamy affair, but will his former
gang and a parole officer tear them apart?
Once
you’re in a prison gang, you’re in it for life. That’s what
Mason Harding thought until the boss accepted his resignation. After
the State releases him on parole, a sexy divorcée behind the wheel
of a car almost ends his life quicker than a shank. His chance
encounter with Mia Eddison results in a night of passion, but her
brother—his parole officer—catches them together and doesn’t
approve.
Mia
falls hard for the cocky ex-con, but not because of his chiseled
body. She vows to break through his walls and discover his secrets,
but never expects those secrets to threaten her life.
When
members of an organized crime ring kidnap Mia to force Mason’s
return to the gang, he goes up against an old friend to save the
woman he loves. Will his sacrifice be enough or will everything fall
apart in a blaze of gunfire?

They
reached her store and he stared at her car parked by the curb.
“Harper doesn’t know where you live or anything about you. That means you’re safe for now, but he’ll probably search this area to find us. Stay cautious, okay? Drive your car from now on. Don’t walk anywhere.”
“Harper doesn’t know where you live or anything about you. That means you’re safe for now, but he’ll probably search this area to find us. Stay cautious, okay? Drive your car from now on. Don’t walk anywhere.”
“Why
are you avoiding my questions? You can tell me anything.”
“Not
this. If you trust me, don’t ask those kinds of questions.” He
tightened his fingers around her forearm as she tried to jerk free
from his grip. “Listen to me, damn it. You mean a lot to me, but I
can’t tell you this. At least not right now. That’s nothing
against you. It’s all on me. I just need time to take care of this
problem. Okay? I’m fucking stressed, in a shitload of pain, and I
don’t need you to hound my ass.” He dropped his hand from her arm
and scowled as though he just noticed the dirt and blood on his
knuckles. “I’d like to go upstairs to clean up before you take me
home. I don’t want Alan to know what happened.”
Mia
dug through her purse with shaky hands, so angry she didn’t trust
herself to speak.
He
took the keys from her before the little pieces of metal slipped
between her fingers, and he hugged her despite the grime on his skin
and clothes.
Tears
clogged her throat. Her mind screamed at her to push away from him,
but the strength in his arms enveloped her and stole her will. His
heartbeat soothed hers, and she no longer cared about his lies or if
filth caked him.
At
least not at the moment.
“I
never meant for this to happen, Mia. I will fix this.”
“I
know, but at what cost?” She pried her face from his chest to stare
up at him. “You’re nothing if not determined, but I’m scared
and confused. You have answers to my questions, but I won’t hound
you for them as you so eloquently stated. I just thought we got past
this. I thought you knew I would never insult or condemn you for
whatever it is you did.”
“And
I thought you knew not to push me too fucking hard.” His deep voice
sent shivers of unease down her spine. “I have to keep certain
parts of my past to myself.”
About
the Author
Amber
Daulton lives her life by that one belief even though she normally
isn’t so Zen.
As
a fan of contemporary, paranormal, and historical romance novels
alike, she can’t get enough of feisty heroines and alpha heroes.
Her mind is a wonderland of adventure, laughter, and awesome ways of
kicking a guy when he’s down. She probably wouldn’t be too sane
without her computer and notebooks. After all, what’s a girl to do
when people are jabbering away in her head and it’s hard to shut
them up? Write! Nothing else works.
