She can fight all she wants. She knows she's mine. When he rescued me from the icy waters of a flash flood, stripped off my drenched clothes, and got me into a warm bath, Axe Beckett wasn't merely doing his job as a wildland firefighter. He was taking care of his best friend's little sister. But when he carried me to his bed with my ass still sore from a stern reminder never to put myself at risk driving in a storm like that again, he didn't tuck me in for the night with a kiss. He made me come so hard I screamed his name first. Because off-limits or not, I've always been his. Publisher's Note: Axe is the first book in the Missoula Hotshots series but can be read as a standalone. It includes spankings and rough, intense sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book.
