Introducing Book Two of The Surprising Catch, the long-awaited follow-up to The Stubborn Suitor and The Reckless Secret. If you’ve been waiting for Ashley's story, this is it! Ashley Woodsen has sworn off all men. The love of her life walked out on their marriage over a year ago, for a slimmer, younger version of Ashley. She couldn't forget his hurtful parting words, and it was just easier to go it alone. So why does she feel her heart flutter and her insides tense every time someone mentions…him? Preston Alcott has always been a playboy. Wealthy, successful, and as alpha as they get, he’s never had a woman say no to him. So why is this gorgeous curvy nurse constantly turning him away? It seems like she’s looking for any excuse to keep from getting close to him. If Ashley’s reluctance to be with Preston wasn’t enough, fate puts them together in a small ski resort, cut off from the rest of the world by a blizzard…and surrounded by a few people who may have played part in a murder. As they try to unravel this mystery, they may just figure out what can finally bring them closer to each other. Preston is the only person Ashley knows she can trust here. Will she be willing to take a risk with her heart? BOOK TWO EXCERPT: He grinned, wickedly pleased with himself, and started kissing a slow path along her jaw to her ear while she panted and keened, awash with the most blissful frustration. “Problem?” he murmured, and she grabbed his wrist, trying to make him move his hand against her. “Please…” “Please what?” He leaned down to take an earlobe between his lips, flicking his tongue over it, sending down more electric shocks of pleasure. “Please touch me.” “Mm, I am touching you.” God, she could actually kill him—before he killed her with this torture.

Alexa Wilder has been a sucker for romance since she found her first Harlequin at a hospital rummage sale when she was thirteen. While she loves all forms of the written word (so much that she occasionally gets caught reading the cereal box at breakfast), love stories have always been her favorite. She lives in the southern U.S. with her husband, two sons, an assorted menagerie of pets, and spends most of her time dreaming up sexy, domineering heroes and the feisty, strong willed heroines who will send them reeling.
