Ajax: I’m not a love and rainbows kind of guy. Growing up, our family motto was “want it? Take it” and I’ve grabbed every single opportunity that’s come my way. I work hard to prove I deserve it and it’s paid off. Kingmaker is one of the biggest bands in the world and now, as lead guitarist, I don’t even have to ask – stuff gets handed to me on a regular basis. And while I’m grateful I’m also kind of adrift. What happens when you don’t have to work for anything? But then a literal kick in the ass leads me to the girl of my dreams. Want it? Just for one night. As a rock star, that’s usually my line and after laying hands on Natalie Harper, I’m playing a different tune. Natalie: If history has taught us anything, it’s a failure to plan is planning to fail. As a history professor, I always have a plan. I like predictable and boring. They get a bad rap, but you know what? They’re safe and there’s nothing wrong with that. My brother missed this lesson now he’s on the bad end of a business deal, with no way out – until he offers me as the payment to Chicago’s biggest crime lord. Definitely not in my plan, so I came up with a new one. I just need ten minutes alone with the crime lord’s rock star brother. Extreme long shot? Oh yeah. But sometimes a plan comes together… and then goes straight out the window because ten minutes turned into twenty-four hours and now Ajax wants a lot more than just one night.

Rock star to the rescue... They call me Mr. Perfect. I’m not perfect, but you can count on me to try to fix the screw-ups, put on a happy face and walk the line. Nothing in life comes without a price and I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop on this whole rock star experience. The other guys in the band dig the lifestyle – money, women, fame. The adoration is like a drug and I’m not immune, but I can’t help feeling like it could all disappear tomorrow with one wrong move. Our label isn’t happy and of course they want me to fix it. Keep walking that line, don’t rock the boat, and find us a fairytale story with a girl-next-door type to make hearts flutter. Something sweet to provide some good press before we leave for our next tour. I’m all in… I make a list for the future Mrs. Perfect, planning to sweep some good girl off her feet. Then Miss Bad Reputation becomes my new neighbor. India Rook is rock royalty, a reality television star, and the bad girl everyone loves to hate. After I rescue her from one situation... and then another, we somehow become friends. She’s nothing like I imagined, and I can’t keep my eyes, or my hands off her. It’s like a vacation fling. Fun, flirty and no one has to know. But when I no longer want to be her dirty little secret will I lose everything, including the one woman who might actually be perfect for me? Get your hands on this steamy story about a rock star looking for happily-ever-after, the bad girl who moves in next door, and what happens when unlikely friends become secret lovers. Drive me Wild can be read as a standalone and the happily-ever-after is guaranteed.
