Everything about Maverick Pierce is excessive. His size. His wealth. His grumpy disposition. Not to mention the impenetrable armor he’s built around his heart. But Violet Hayes, a firecracker with curves for days and ribbons in her hair, is about to put a crack in Maverick’s armor. And once the armor is gone, there’s no going back. He’s going to claim her relentlessly, and claim her for good—devoted, protective, and obsessed for the rest of their lives. Dear Reader, He’s a growly alpha male. She's his future queen. Their love story is bursting with instalove, sweetness, and steam. Age gap? Check. Dirty talk? Check. Swoony happily-ever-after? Extra-extra-large check. xo, Kate
