With
his tight leather pants and a sharp edge that makes him dangerous, Jet
Keller is every girl’s rock and roll fantasy. But Ayden Cross is done
walking on the wild side with bad boys. She doesn’t want to give in to
the heat she sees in Jet’s dark, haunted eyes. She’s afraid of getting
burned from the sparks of their spontaneous combustion, even as his
touch sets her on fire.
Jet can’t resist the Southern Belle with mile-long legs in cowboy boots who defies his every expectation. Yet the closer he feels to Ayden, the less he seems to know her. While he’s tempted to get under her skin and undo her in every way, he knows firsthand what happens to two people with very different ideas about relationships.
Will the blaze burn into an enduring love. . . or will it consume their dreams and turn them to ashes?

Excerpt #1
After
emailing a bunch of pictures I had of the instruments and the recording
equipment on my phone to the adjuster, who couldn’t get away from the
murderous vibes I was throwing off fast enough, I slowly paced back and
forth in the stark and empty space while rubbing my temples. All I could
see was the barren landscape, and all I could feel was the place inside
that was hot and smoldering in a dangerous way.
Before
I knew what happened, something at the core of me broke loose. It was
like when I had witnessed my mom with the black eye, only this time it
was my future that was broken and battered. It was the one thing I had
ever loved that had unconditionally loved me back, and it had fallen at
the hands of some unknown abuser as well. I let out a scream that
bounced off the walls, and picked up the only furniture left in the
place and hurled it through the glass that surrounded the recording
area. A million shards cascaded all over the floor and tinkled against
my ears. I pulled all the remaining pictures off the walls, tore the
posters down, and reopened all the wounds on each and every knuckle
until blood dripped off the tip of each finger. I kicked the Coors Light
can across the floor, spilling stale beer in every direction and I tore
all the cords and plugs out of the wall and threw them into a pile on
the floor. I made a mess. By the time I was done I was panting and
sweating, and the fury that was scorching inside me had subsided to a
manageable level. I wanted to hit something, to tear someone apart, so I
put my hands on my knees and bent over to catch my breath before the
heat burned my vision black.
I
don’t know how long I was like that, but when a low whistle echoed
through the now-barren space, it startled me enough that I jerked and
whirled around ready to fight. Rowdy had his hands in the pockets of his
jeans and those ocean-colored eyes were sympathetic as they roamed the
devastation, made worse by my current state of freak-out.
“What are you doing here?”
I
didn’t mean to sound surly and ungrateful, but it was the crap day to
end all crap days and I didn’t have one ounce of play nice anywhere in
me at the moment.
