King Moncrief was born to a life of privilege and wealth-and walked away. From his life, and from the woman he loved. He answered the call to serve, first as a cop, then as a security specialist for JCL Securities. Protection is in his blood, but it can't keep him warm at night. Not when dreams of what could have been, what will never be, leave him cold to the core. Charlotte Alexander lost the two most important things in her life just out of high school: her childhood sweetheart and her only chance at having a family of her own. Now her energy is poured into the charity she founded, Creating Families, helping babies and their mothers find a better life. But something isn't right at CF, and when Charlotte is targeted by a killer, there's only one place she can turn. Back to the past. To the man who walked away. The man she denied but never forgot. - Lusty Literarians - Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews Come For Me (Book 1) Deceive Me (Book 2) Destroy Me (Book 3) Deny Me (Book 4) Desire Me (Book 5) Teach Me (Book 1) Trust Me (Book 2) Take Me (A Southern Nights Standalone)
