Blood & Bone

I own the boardroom. He owns the stage. We were never meant to be together, but when something's forbidden, it only makes you want it more. My jaded heart was determined never to be fooled again. There's too much at stake, and my daughter always comes first. And then one night, on the eve of my forty-third birthday, I walked into a bar, and locked eyes with Adrian Corvin. He's a musician, covered in tattoos... and way too young. He's the opposite of everything I should want. When he followed me outside of the bar, not even the Arizona monsoon could keep me from kissing him. With just one taste, I was an addict. It was only supposed to be one night. No names, no expectations, and no truths. Only lies. And he tells beautiful lies. Lake and Adrian's story is perfect for readers who love a steamy, reverse age gap, forbidden romance between a strong later in life heroine and a younger part-time musician who have a one night stand that turns into more. If you love Imani Jay, Melanie Harlow, and Michelle Hercules, you will love this story.
