Sugar Coated Secrets: Small town steamy romance: friends-to-lovers, forced proximity

Sadie
My dream is simple. Get married, have babies, and live happily ever after, just like my best friend. So why did I dump my longtime boyfriend, soon-to-be fianc , and bring one of my worst fears-being alone-to life?

And why did I take that dark alley and allow myself to be attacked? As an ID channel enthusiast, I know the dangers lurking in the world. I warn my friends about them regularly. Now I have a stalker, which brings my other worst fear to life.

The person who comes to my rescue isn't my ex or even my bestie. Easton-my gorgeous, flirty friend, and my bff's brother-in-law-shows up to care for me. He's the opposite of the preppy guys I date. He's rugged, sexy, and doesn't know the meaning of the word commitment. Other than helping me with my stalker, he can't give me what I want. So why am I falling for him anyway?

Easton
As the spare to the heir, I'm the carefree brother. The guy no one expects much from-not even my own family. But I'm here to prove them all wrong. I'm not the man I was a year ago. Sadie is proof of that.

I never would have let someone like her get close to me. Yet she found a way into my life without climbing into my bed. That never happens. She friend-zoned me long ago, and out of respect for my brother and sister-in-law, I've kept my hands to myself. Only now, she's in my home, showing sides of herself I didn't know existed. She's more than I could have imagined. Better.

I didn't know protecting her would make me crave her so much. I can give her a safe place, a good time, pleasures she's never known, but I can't give her the dream she desires.
