Sawyer Maddox hasn\u2019t had an easy life\u2026<\/p>\n
She\u2019s the daughter of Kerrville\u2019s biggest drug addicts and she knows what it\u2019s like to be belittled and neglected. She keeps to herself as much as possible and has nobody to count on but her sister, Carley. She\u2019s loved and failed, and with nothing left to lose the two sisters leave the only home they\u2019ve ever known to start fresh someplace new.<\/p>\n
They\u2019ve established a good life in Minneapolis for the past eight years. Sawyer finds her passion through her art and tattooing, and her sister finds the love of her life. Her happiness disintegrates when Carley dies in a fire and she\u2019s left utterly alone in the world.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s been a long time since she\u2019s been home, but she decides to say goodbye to Minnesota and returns to the Hill Country of Texas. The town is familiar, and she\u2019s determined to bring beauty back to those horrible memories that plague her. She\u2019s not the same woman she once was, and Mad Ink, her very own tattoo shop is how she plans to make those dreams come true. What she doesn\u2019t expect, however, is to run into the dark haired, green eyed, sexy cowboy she left behind.<\/p>\n
Jagger Hale is instantly drawn to the brunette beauty sitting at the bar the moment he walks into Hardbodies. She looks eerily similar to the woman he once loved, and the moment he finds out she is indeed the one who got away he has his own agenda in mind\u2014getting Sawyer back. But first he needs to come up with a plan to woo her. Now that he has her in his sights again he doesn\u2019t plan on ever letting her go. All he needs is that second chance\u2026<\/p>\n
EXCERPT<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cNice ink you\u2019ve got there.\u201d He gestured towards the half sleeve she had on her right arm and she couldn\u2019t help but smile.<\/p>\n \u201cThanks, I love my art on the body and off of it.\u201d She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before she opened them again. It had been a long day. \u201cDo you have any?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cTattoos?\u201d He lifted his eyebrow and smirked. \u201cOne, but I\u2019d have to take off some clothing for anyone to see it.\u201d<\/p>\n Damn it! He\u2019s flirting. \u201cJagger.\u201d Sawyer said as if she was exasperated with him already, but secretly she was really wondering where on that delicious body of his it was located. Not that she\u2019d ever admit that out loud or anything.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s my name. Speaking of, I never did get yours,\u201d he said just as they\u2019d reached her car.<\/p>\n \u201cUh huh, now if I gave you that the mystery would be over.\u201d Her keys jangled as she grabbed them from her pocket, but Jagger leaned against the driver side door before she could open it. \u201cAnd, right now I\u2019m still unsure if you\u2019d like what I had to say. Best to play it safe I think.\u201d She took a step forward hoping he\u2019d take the hint and move out of her way but the stubborn stud wasn\u2019t budging.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t know any man who doesn\u2019t like a challenge sweetheart and I will figure you out. So consider me intrigued.\u201d He smiled and stood straighter. \u201cNow, how much have you had to drink?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhat?\u201d she asked totally taken off guard by the question. \u201cI am not drunk.\u201d Hell, it had taken her over an hour to finish her first beer, and she hadn\u2019t even finished her second one.<\/p>\n \u201cLet me be the judge of that.\u201d He held his hand out and wiggled his fingers. \u201cI have a feeling we\u2019ve met before I just can\u2019t seem to place it yet, and if that\u2019s the case you know I\u2019m a decent guy. So I think maybe you should pass me your keys and I\u2019ll make it my duty to get you home safely.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAbsolutely not!\u201d she said and gripped them tighter.<\/p>\n \u201cYou need references darlin\u2019? If so, feel free to march back inside and get as many as you need. I know almost everyone inside including the owner,\u201d he said and waited.<\/p>\n Sawyer was in complete shock. In fact, so much so, her mouth was literally hanging open. Of all the nerve\u2026wow. She fidgeted and then narrowed her eyes at him. \u201cThere\u2019s no need. I appreciate your concern but I\u2019m perfectly capable of taking myself home.\u201d<\/p>\n He chuckled in response and then crossed his arms. The smooth tan skin and bulging muscles of his forearms distracted her and she muttered another curse under her breath when she looked back up to his face and he winked. Busted!<\/p>\n \u201cHumor me.\u201d He repeated, \u201cAre you always this pigheaded or is all of it reserved just for me tonight?\u201d He held out his hand again. \u201cCome on just consider this some good old southern hospitality. You get home safely and I feel better about it.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cFine, it\u2019s not like I\u2019ve been given any other choice.\u201d She handed him her keys and stomped her feet as she made her way to the passenger side. \u201cStubborn? Huh!\u201d She huffed. \u201cTakes one to know one.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s all just part of the package.\u201d He teased. Once they were inside and all buckled up he turned towards her. \u201cNow were to.\u201d<\/p>\n Sawyer gulped as she looked into those hypnotizing green eyes of his and knew that she was royally screwed. Because the moment she gave him the address to her folks place he\u2019d know exactly who she was and that might not be a good thing.<\/p>\n ABOUT THE AUTHOR<\/strong><\/p>\n Jennifer Labelle resides in Canada with her husband and three beautiful children.
