Synopsis
CAN’T FORGET THE PAIN
It took years for Adam to stop drowning his regrets in
alcohol, and running the local bar doesn’t make it any easier—especially not
when everyone he knows gathers there to discuss the shocking allegations that
have shattered his hometown. When another murder rocks sleepy Madison to its
core, it becomes chillingly clear that even more vicious wounds are waiting to
be exposed.
WON’T RESIST THE PLEASURE
Nothing is sacred anymore, and no one is safe, least
of all the mystery woman who shows up in town out of the blue, looking like
every fantasy Adam’s ever had. She may have her own dangerous secrets, but she
can’t ignore the urgent heat between them any more than he can. As a killer’s
quest for vengeance explodes into violence, Adam is tempted to lose himself in
the delicious promise of her body—until he realizes he’ll risk anything if
she’ll give him her heart…in Sweeter than Sin by Shiloh Walker.

Excerpt
“I think right now the one thing you need to do
is sleep, darlin’.” He nuzzled her neck, pressing his lips where it
curved into her shoulder. “It’s late and you never look like you sleep as
well as you should. Tomorrow is soon enough for you to worry about how
somebody else’s tragedy has to ruin your life.”
“It’s already ruined mine.” Slowly, she turned
around and lifted her hands, curling them in the soft, worn material of his
shirt, pressing her head against his chest. The smell of him flooded her
head. Warm man, something spicy—the soap he wore or aftershave—she liked
it. Rubbing her cheek against him, she murmured, “It’s ruined my life for
years and I’m tired of it. I don’t want to let it ruin my life
anymore. That’s why I’m trying to figure out what to do next.”
“I already told you. Sleep.” He rubbed his
lips against hers and then said quietly, a thread of steel in his voice,
“Tomorrow, we find answers. For now, though…”
He slid his hands down her back, cupped them around
her hips. He boosted her up and when she twined her legs around him, it
was a sweet, sweet bliss. “Maybe the answer to that is think about
you. You’ve lived your life day by day, always thinking about keeping
your secrets. We need to figure out how you can reclaim your life, but
you can’t do that in the dead of night. So for now…think about you.
What you need.”
He dipped his head and caught her lower lip between
his, bit her lightly.
“What do you need?”
A slow shudder wracked her body and he decided he
liked it. As he lifted his head to peer down into her eyes, she stared up
at him, her eyes cloudy and heated. “Are you suggesting that maybe the
answer to this lies in getting naked?”
