Money.
Lots of it. Fifty million dollars left to her by a father she didn't
know she had.
But
that money comes with a price: Jack and Sean Stone. The Stone
Brothers were just a couple gorgeous, unattainable faces on magazines
up until yesterday morning when one of them shows up on Rue's
doorstep, drunk and royally pissed off. Jack's growl, "You'll be
hearing from my lawyer," sends a jolt of shock to Rue's system
that ricochets into a whole new life. One Jack doesn't want her to
have.
Rockstar
Alec Gabriel is the Stone Brothers best friend. Has been since
childhood. Their bond needs no words. So when Jack suggests he make
his newest target for heartache his new "secret sister" Rue
Calliwell, Alec signs on out of curiosity, not expecting that meeting
her will be the biggest challenge he's ever known.

Excerpt
The
elevator doors open to my left. My stomach jumps out the top of my
head and splats on the ceiling as Jack and Sean Stone walk out, each
with one hand in the pocket of their tailored slacks, mirroring each
other, and both looking at me. Jack sneers, his jawline taut and his
light green eyes cutting a path through my heart, which is pounding
and stopping, and pounding some more. I gulp and move focus to his
brother who’s only slightly less intimidating with softer, curious
blue eyes, the same nose, sandy brown hair styled perfectly, and a
slender, more graceful frame. I don’t say anything as they pass me
to stop at the receptionist’s desk. Sean throws a glance over his
shoulder, checking me out as Jack says, “Mary, you look gorgeous.
Tell him we’re here, will you?”
She
all but falls out of her chair for him. And gorgeous she is not, so
instantly I find him charming and wish I were on the receiving end.
Why does he hate me so much? It’s like I’ve killed his dog or
something. Who are these people? And why do they want to see me?
Sean
strolls over, holding out his hand. “I’m Sean. You must be Rue.”
I
stand up and my dress hitches on my thigh, demanding a hasty fix.
Blushing at my moment of gracelessness, I hold out my hand and shake
his a little too firmly. “Yes, that’s me. Hi. I didn’t know
you’d be here today. Either of you. I don’t know why I’m here
either, actually. I don’t know what this is about. And I’m
blabbering. It’s nice to meet you.”
Sean’s
smile is polite, his eyes a little cold. “Nice to meet you, too.”
“My
ass it is,” Jack mutters loudly.
The
large oak door opens and a man appears. He’s ancient, with gray
hair sprouting all over the place. His body is tiny, as are his
hands. His smile says he’s seen it all, and he probably has. Even
the invention of fire. “Ah, we’re all here. Come!” He turns and
walks back inside his office, leaving me staring after him. Sean
touches the small of my back in a comforting way. “After you.” I
look up at him and nod, but my feet aren’t having it. “It’s
okay,” Sean says.
Jack
walks in, shaking his head at the whole situation. “Can you believe
this?”

I
love real-life heroes, strong, flawed men and women, and Chocolate
Malted Crunch ice cream. Sometimes in that order. If you're just now
finding my books, pour a nice glass of wine, and enjoy the ride.
(Mmmm…I like wine, too.)
