But spoilt brat Martha Nicholson just might be the worst thing he\u2019s ever encountered. The beautiful troublemaker claims to have reformed, but Sam knows better than to think with what\u2019s in his pants. Unfortunately, it\u2019s not so easy to make his heart fall into line.<\/p>\n<p>Martha\u2019s had her sights on the seriously built bodyguard for years. Quiet and conservative, he\u2019s not even remotely her type. So why the hell can\u2019t she get him out of her mind? There\u2019s more to her than the Louboutin wearing party-girl of previous years, however. Maybe it\u2019s time to let him in on that fact and deal with this thing between them.<\/p>\n<p>**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it\u2019s an introduction to an author\u2019s world. And for fans, it\u2019s a bonus book in the author\u2019s series. We hope you&#8217;ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6156\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png?resize=158%2C45\" alt=\"\" width=\"158\" height=\"45\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>AVAILABLE NOW<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2N6LVlN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AMAZON US<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2CLhrkp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AMAZON AUS<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2QlaQ2V\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AMAZON UK<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-40485 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.inkslingerpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/strong1-1024x770.jpg?resize=474%2C356\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"356\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/excerpt.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6157\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/excerpt.png?resize=132%2C50\" alt=\"\" width=\"132\" height=\"50\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t believe this,\u201d I bitched. \u201cMy Valentino boots are actually sticking to the floor. That\u2019s how gross this place is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lizzy just smiled. \u201cTold you to dress casual.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The smile widened.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJeans and a tee is casual.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA tee? It\u2019s velvet, Martha.\u201d She held a bottle of beer up to her lips, taking a sip. \u201cI said we were going to a dive bar. You have only yourself to blame for the fashion faux pas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut velvet is in!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWould you two quit talking? I\u2019m trying to listen,\u201d said my brother, Ben. The big hairy idiot was slouched back in his chair, bopping his head in time to the music.<\/p>\n<p>Lizzy shuffled closer all conspiratorial-like. \u201cI know why you\u2019re all dressed up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I said nothing. There was nothing to be said.<\/p>\n<p>Next her gaze went to the man standing at the end of the bar across from us. No, no, I would not turn my head. I would not fall prey to her bullshit. After all, I\u2019d managed to successfully avoid him for the forty-eight or so hours since my not so triumphant surprise return to the West Coast. Even with us both being in the same house. A very big sprawling house, but still.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, it should probably be mentioned that he looked awfully good tonight in jeans and a white T-shirt with a leather jacket. Samuel Rhodes, otherwise known as Sam. Not a pretty man with his harsh features and bull-like neck, but something about him appealed to me. As always, his head was shaved and his body was built and my idiot fingers itched to explore.<\/p>\n<p>Okay. So I guess at some point I must have turned my head. And shit, he caught me looking.<\/p>\n<p>The corner of his lips rose just a little, just enough to mess with me, before he returned to doing his job by casually surveying the packed room. My heart did not speed up due to anything done by him. Clearly, I hadn\u2019t totally caught my breath from when we\u2019d walked in half an hour ago or something. That was all. Interesting to note, he did none of the checking me out typical of a heterosexual male who might have been into me. In fact, he didn\u2019t really give me any signals at all.
