When the danger escalates , they face the greatest challenge of all — protecting their unborn child .
An Excerpt
Benji ’ s heart pounded harder as Belle strutted onto the stage from a rear door . Her hips swayed with a ba-dum beat as her hair flapped behind her shoulders . Was there an air vent above her ? Dark eye shadow , mascara , and a dark slash of blush on her cheeks deepened her sultry eyes . Her lips swelled like a juicy plum . God , was her lipstick purple ? Burgundy , maybe ? She bent over , showing off her fine ass , and plugged her acoustic-electric guitar into the amp .
A baby-faced gopher carried a stool and a water bottle to the middle of the platform . She patted him on the back and stared out at the crowd . Several men ogled her , despite the baby bump . Their lady friends laughed , but some frowned and slapped the guys ’ arms .
Wow . Benji swallowed hard . What he wouldn ’ t do to unzip her knee-high leather boots , pull down her stockings , and flip up her short pleated skirt ? *****
Goodreads Review by GSD1985 : It ’ s a story that really puts its characters through their paces and , by the end , shows the reader just how strong a person can be . … These are complex characters that are masterfully balanced with a suspenseful plot .
