Brody Bennet’s brother Ethan was killed in prison. In a random coincidence, the daughter of the man that sent Ethan to prison is sitting across from him in a meeting. Brody is faced with a decision. He never got the chance to get retribution against the lawyer who sent his brother to his death. But… Maybe he can get retribution against the daughter. Brody puts his plan into motion, but gets tangled in his own web, drawn to Calie more than any other woman, ever. Will he be able to go through with his retribution plans? Or can he let vengeance go for a chance at love? Calanthe Kemp doesn’t understand the antagonism she feels rolling off the muscular former Marine. She’s never seen him before, but there’s some familiarity in his gaze, like he knows her. There’s also a carnal want in his gaze that takes her off guard. She’s very careful with her relationships, but just once… maybe she can break out of her country-club set and go for a bad boy. He’s leaving in a day anyway, so what’s the harm in having a one-night stand?

NY Times and USA Today Bestselling author J.M. Madden writes compelling romances between 'combat modified' military men and the women who love them. J.M. Madden loves any and all good love stories, most particularly her own. She has two beautiful children and a husband who always keeps her on her toes. J.M. was a Deputy Sheriff in Ohio for nine years, until hubby moved the clan to Kentucky. When not chasing the family around, she's at the computer, reading and writing, perfecting her craft. She occasionally takes breaks to feed her animal horde and is trying to control her office-supply addiction, but both tasks are uphill battles. Happily, she is writing full-time and always has several projects in the works. She also dearly loves to hear from readers! So, drop her a line. She'll respond.
