Evie is the woman your parents warned you about; dangerous, rebellious, and unable to keep her mouth shut. She hides a kind heart, her passion for dancing, and a past she’s desperate to forget. But the past won’t stop feeding her insecurities, and to make it worse, she has another secret; she’s in love with her best friend, Josh, and he’s her ex-boyfriend’s teammate too.
Josh is sexy, bearded and a mess. He has a painful secret and a lifetime of pressure. His dad demands he toes the line while excelling as a rugby star, but his heart directs him to Evie, the only woman who makes him happy and the one who risks it all. His rugby career is failing, he’s getting into fights, and his life is falling apart, but is it because of his dad or the woman he can’t resist?
The last time Evie and Josh were alone, they ended up with passionate regrets on his bedroom floor. Faced with each other again, their lives unravel as they keep their desires at bay. But destiny is coming for them, and they can only fight their scorching chemistry for so long. Their secrets are getting harder to hide, and their reputations are in tatters. Does the complicated friendship stand a chance of love, or will passion consume them before they can find out? This book contains sexual situations and language only suitable for those aged 18+
