About this ebook
Locke Jackman has a bad case of empty nest syndrome. He fought tooth and nail to hold onto his family after his parents deaths, but now grown, his siblings have all moved on with their lives. Now, there’s no one around to distract him from his sister’s best friend. The woman who—after a single night of blistering passion—refuses to have anything to do with him.
Susie Packard’s terrible past taught her the dangers of powerful men. If only the big, stoic frowner across the street—the one who tempts her with every breath—didn’t have her in his sights. If only she could trust him with the most important secret of both their lives, one that began the night she remembers every time their eyes meet.
In a town where everyone knows everything about your life, the safest thing to do would be to go away, far away. But she can't leave Locke, can't leave the man who holds her heart and soul in the palm of his hand. Every day she stays, she fears is one day too many, because Susie has secrets Locke can't imagine; dangerous secrets. While passion may have its rewards, every secret has its price…

About the author
Dee Tenorio has a few reality issues. After much therapy for the problem—if one can call being awakened in the night by visions of hot able-bodied men a problem—she has proved incurable. It turns out she enjoys tormenting herself by writing sizzling, steamy romances of various genres spanning paranormal mystery dramas, contemporaries and romantic comedies. Preferably starring the sexy, somewhat grumpy heroes described above and smart-mouthed heroines who have much better hair than she does.
The best part is, no more therapy bills!
Well, not for Dee, anyway. Her husband and kids, on the other hand…
