A man of few words, the boy next door and a girl trapped between now and then. Katarina James has lusted after local grocer and hot single dad, Lennox Green since she moved to Buffalo. Equally infatuated, Lennox attempts to entice Kat into action, but all she does is run. To complicate matters further, Andy Coulson, the boy next door and unrequited love she lost to college is back - and he's interested! Generous to a fault when it comes to others, Kat refuses to satisfy any of her own desires. Doing so would mean sharing the shameful secret that threatens to destroy her family, her friends and her chances with the man she's falling for. If you love imperfect characters, you'll adore the humorous, yet saucy Beyond Series that follows the baggage-laden romances of those living and working at a one-of-a-kind strip club as they struggle to overcome the psychological barriers of past and present to find love and hope for the future. Each full-length novel can be read as a stand-alone, but for maximum enjoyment, should be read in order. Get your sassy stripper romance now.
