Tainted Pearl

2016

Lust at first sight has never been a problem for Doug Fraser before, but something about Biddy O’Mara screams hands off. Except the private, mysterious musician is also the sexiest, most captivating woman he’s ever crammed into close quarters with. Biddy can’t afford any distractions while on a month long eco-activism island adventure. The rock star is incognito for a very good cause, but the irresistible camera operator quickly proves a big, bad complication. A fling is inevitable. But Doug’s not relationship material, and the more he gets to know Biddy, the more he realizes she’s the type of girl you take home to meet your mother—even if you don’t know all her secrets. Tainted Pearl is not a stand alone story

And if it has the side benefit of turning those sparks into a completely different kind of heat? Brody's up for that kind of dominance as well.
