I've been many things in my life. A liar. A cheater. A thief. And I've never had a problem with any of it. I knew my path, knew which direction I was heading when it was all over—straight to Satan's lair. I accepted it, reveled in it, and always asked for more. Nothing would change me, no one could sway me. Or so I thought. I knew I was a monster. I just don't know how to convince Cara Gibson that I'm her monster.

I wouldn't call it love at first sight, but my body definitely reacted when I saw her. Getting Faith Robbins under me became my obsession. I knew I wanted fast and done. It's how I always did things.

Then someone began to seek revenge, and my other instincts kicked in. Spending time with her was about protecting her, keeping her safe.

Until she needs me to pretend again. Pretending is perfect. Pretending gets me closer. It gives me the opportunity to prove that we are the perfect combination.

When a reality show comes knocking, you take their offer. That’s exactly what we did, and now our cattle ranch has become a dude ranch.

In the end, it is a love story that will leave you believing in second chances and first loves.

Words like unnatural and impure started the whispers. From the very beginning, Ivy Blackwood was different. She was only a child when she was accused of setting the fire, one she passively watched engulf the small house she had called home. Her fingertips burned, and her hair singed. Some who watched her crossed themselves, convinced she was soulless for she showed no emotion at all. Calm and dispassionate, even when the screaming started that quickly turned to bellows of agony before dying into nothing but the roaring of the fire.

I never ran from my past or the only woman I ever loved. She made sure to stomp me into the ground and demand I forget all about her. I tried to do just that, and in the twelve years since she ripped my heart out, I've done fairly well. Sometimes I could even go a day or two without thinking of her. We were never supposed to see each other again, but Grace Neiman just couldn't stay gone. She couldn't stay in my past where she put herself. Facing her again after she was abducted and sold was going to be the toughest challenge of my life.

The first time he kissed me, we kept it a secret. Tanner and I have been at each other’s throats ever since. The second time he kissed me, I told myself not to fall.
