The Badge & the Bad Boy: A steamy small town romance

Examples of things I shouldn't be doing:

1. Staring at how nicely Evan Walker fills out his Wranglers.

2. Sneaking around after dark, hoping we don't get caught.

3. Fantasizing about a life with a man who isn't supposed to exist.

He's a criminal, a dangerous man with connections to the Chicago mafia.

And I'm a cop.

Now we're stuck hiding out in this quirky small town, and my eyes have a way of wandering.

So do his hands.

But the rules are clear--no connections to your former life. Ever.

We can't afford to give into temptation. I'm only here on this Montana ranch until I can safely return to my job-and the promotion I've worked so hard for. And he's only here to keep his little sister safe.

But as we're forced to work together, I find that Evan is much more than I ever expected. He's strong, hard-working.

Did I mention the Wranglers?

We're drawn to each other in ways that are completely hopeless. I know I shouldn't give in to his hot, smoldering looks or the way his lingering touch lights me up. It's reckless.

Addictive.

I can hide it, but the truth always has a way of coming out. In Tipp, Montana, secrets can save your life. The only cost is your heart.
