I’m not looking for love. I’ve got priorities, and my music career is at the top of the list. I’ve got lots of time to let love sweep me off my feet later. Then, thanks to reports of rats at the recording studio, I meet Calina, and everything changes. She’s strong, sassy, and so damned gorgeous that it’s hard to keep my hands off her. But Calina’s got a problem—a big one—that I never see coming. She’s trapped and she’s looking for a way out. The only question is if I’m ready to be her hero . . . Pax and Calina’s standalone story in the Once Upon a Happily Ever After series is very loosely inspired by the story of the Pied Piper and features: • a modern marriage of convenience • sexy new adult romance • billionaire romance • a saucy AF little sister • rats! (maybe…) The Once Upon a H.E.A. series is what happens when folktales and contemporary romance meet, fall madly in love, and have lots of little book babies. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and only consensual shenanigans await. Happily ever after guaranteed!
