There's one thing I need in my life right now and one thing only—a new job. So I'm stoked when I land a dream gig as a bodyguard for a rock star. But there's definitely one thing I do not need at all—a complication. Like being wildly attracted to the guy who just hired me. So I vow to do everything I can to deny the intense attraction for the man I'm sworn to protect. All I have to do is ignore it. Eventually it'll go away, right? But that's not what happens one night after a concert... MAYBE THIS TIME is a 14,000-word prequel novella about how Stone and Jackson meet and it leads into their full-length novel ONE TIME ONLY. You don't have to read MAYBE THIS TIME to enjoy ONE TIME ONLY, but you'll likely enjoy this story before the story!

A fiery, passionate MM romance novel from #1 New York Times Bestselling author Lauren Blakely… Ever hear the story about the bodyguard who falls for the rock star? Yeah, it never ends well. Each day I remind myself that it's my job to protect Stone. And nowhere in the job description does it say I should lust after the charismatic, charming rock star. But every night I spend with him the attraction grows more intense, electric, undeniable. Until one night in a limo when we combust. One time only will have to be enough. Because the mistakes from the past are chasing me. And If I give in again, I might lose everything. Good thing I’m strong, determined, and dedicated to resisting him. But after a close call at his concert, all bets are off. And in his hotel room, we strike a brand new deal. One that can’t end well for me, but I do it anyway. Because sometimes you grab hold of the desire. And other times, the desire takes hold of you.
