Nothing is more important to Jesse King than his club and his daughter.
He’s a biker to the core.
Gorgeous and lethal.
Trouble at its finest.
And I’m his daughter’s new nanny…
It’s my job to take care of the one person in his life who comes before his patch. If only Jesse wasn’t making it so difficult.
He’s resistant. Infuriating. He doesn’t trust anyone except for his brothers, and he fights me at every turn.
But when bickering turns into him claiming me in the back of his truck, we start a scorching game of emotional roulette neither of us is ready for.
I thought nothing was more terrifying than the past I’m running from. Until I handed my heart to a biker and asked him not to break it.

“You want me to read your ridiculous mafia romance?” His eyebrow hitches.
“I can find a motorcycle club romance if that’s more your taste.”
Jesse’s eyes widen. “They actually have that shit?”
I nod sharply, biting back the urge to grin when he turns back to the mafia book instead.
His gaze scans the scene, and I’m tempted to ask him to read it out loud for my own amusement, but when his eyes immediately widen, and he slaps the book shut, his reaction says enough.
“That was fast.” I circle the desk, stepping close to snatch the book from his hands. “Are you embarrassed, Jesse King?”
I’ve positioned myself too close. The air is all leather and allspice cologne.
His shock dissipates, and the power in the room flips as his blue stare bores into me.
I shift back; he leans closer.
He exhales; I inhale.
It’s all too much.
“Embarrassed… no.” He smirks as I feel my cheeks heat. “More like surprised.”
The invisible cord between us is taut. Each retreating step of mine is matched with an advancing one of his.
“So that’s what you read at night, Reagan?” His voice is smooth as honey.
“I was just proving a point. You can’t shock me.” My heart races. “I’m not saying I do that kind of thing.”
Jesse grins. “You don’t do what exactly? Mafia men? All three of them at once? Handcuffs and—”
“Any of it.” I cut him off. And this time, it’s my cheeks that feel like they’re on fire.
While I purposely picked a spicy scene for him to read, I forgot that particular one had so many participants.
Jesse leans closer.
My heart beats like it’s trying to find a path to him through my ribs.
The air is so thick it’s hard to breathe.
Does he sense it?
His lips nearly graze my ear as he leans in and whispers, “Now who’s embarrassed, sweetheart?”
About Eva Simmons
Eva Simmons writes hot, heartbreaking romance with complex heroines, and broken, dirty-talking bad boys who fall hard for them.
When Eva isn’t dreaming up new worlds or devouring every book she can get her hands on, she can be found spending time with her family, painting a fresh canvas, or playing an elf in World of Warcraft.
Eva is currently living out her own happily ever after in Nevada with her family.
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
