Knocked Out By Love

Brody Minton has loved Scarlett Harris for years. But she’s his best friend’s wife, so he’s worked hard to keep his distance. Hearing the marriage is over shouldn’t change anything. Only an ass would make a move on a friend’s ex… Except Scarlett wants help getting back in the dating game, and Brody’s torn. If he helps her out, he can keep an eye on her and guard her vulnerable heart. But having the woman he’s longed for years in arms’ reach is hell on a man’s restraint, no matter how iron strong his will.

But loving Scarlett is only half the fight.

All Scarlett Harris wants is to get away for a while and rethink her life after filing for divorce from her lying, cheating bastard of a husband. The gorgeous Bahamas sounds like the perfect escape, except she’s booked in very resort Brody “The Iron” Minton is staying at for his sister’s wedding. Now her ex’s best friend is dogging her every move and is a witness to her first pathetic attempts at flirting in years. If Brody isn’t going to leave her alone, then she’ll just recruit him to help get her reacquainted with her single self.

Excerpt

The amused giggle that interrupted Scarlett’s singing made Brody’s chest expand, and he felt a grin come to his lips.

Then she turned, faced him, and slid her hands up her body.

The throaty seductive purr to her voice telling him to feel her grabbed him right by the balls and refused to let go. He couldn’t tear his gaze away from her hands gliding over her breasts. His grip on the mic loosened. He juggled with it before it could hit the floor, missing the next few lines. Once he had it back into a firm grip, he glanced back up at Scarlett and pure pleasure shined back at him.

He pressed his lips together. She’d done that on purpose. Oh, two could play at this game.

Brody behaved until they got to the last few lines, then he turned toward her, placed his hands low on her hips, and started the Travolta shimmy. He moved toward her as his head lowered toward her chest. She froze for a second, her throat working on a swallow before she collected herself and wrapped her arms around his shoulders and shimmied with him. He allowed his hands to rub up and down her hips, enjoying the feel of the silky material of her dress under his hands.

He was playing with fire, and for the first time, he didn’t give a shit that he did.
