One year ago Willow Gregory entered the Miss Firecracker contest on a dareβand ended up with the crown. As a working carpenter, sheβs not exactly the tears-and-tiara type, and after a year of walking the straight and narrow sheβs ready to cut loose.
Waking up in a sexy strangerβs bed with no memory of the havoc she wreaked the night before wasnβt quite what she had in mind. Nor was agreeing to his mandateβwork for him at the tavern until she repays the damage. Or go to jail.
Blake West thinks he could possibly be the only man alive who could say no to a drunken, horny, naked beauty queen. Thereβs something about the former Miss Firecracker that makes him want to blow his Mr. Nice Guy persona all to hell.
It helps that Willow is ready to dive headfirst into a no-heartstrings-attached affair. Which fits in perfectly with Blakeβs temporary gig managing his friendβs bar.
Every grinding kiss, every stolen touch leads to anotherβ¦until a harmless little white lie becomes the detonator that could explode their chances at a happily ever after.
Warning:this light-hearted beach read features a hero hotter than the 4th of July and a feisty heroine who knows exactly how to pop his top.
