A sizzling new contemporary romance from award-winning author LaQuette.
Colton Adams just wants to keep his head down, do his job, and go home. His plan from now until retirement is to toe the line and keep his nose clean. Unfortunately for him, being assigned to protect and investigate ex-convict Seneca Daniels will not help him accomplish that, especially when just the thought of her makes his body burn.
Seneca wants a new start. After spending seven years in a state prison looking over her shoulder to stay alive, all she wants is the quiet, solitary life working on Restoration Ranch. Everything is calm in her new role of Network Director until a chance run-in with her prison tormentor drags her back to the darkest time of her life. Determined to break free, she sets out to take control of her destiny once and for all. There's just one the sexy Ranger she can't seem to ignore is muddying up her plans.
When the Restoration Ranch case escalates and Seneca's past and Colton's present collide, a clear decision will have to be they either protect themselves or work together and solve the case. But the more time they spend together, and the more their desire grows, the more Colton has to wonder how sweet it would be to ignore his duty for once and simply let their all-consuming fire blaze...
LaQuette writes sexy, stylish, and sensational romance—the kind of sentimental-and-steamy stories that feel like Hallmark movies… if Hallmark suddenly ramped up the sexy and gave us the hawt love scenes we deserve. Expect big emotions, bold choices, and characters who strut through the pages like the book is their own personal runway.
A proud Brooklyn native, she crafts unapologetically bold, character-driven Black and interracial romances where Black women are joy-filled, desired, and absolutely treasured. These women know they belong on the page—and dare you to try telling them otherwise.
