From the New York Times bestselling author of the Marked Men books comes the second installment in the Saints of Denver series featuring a bad girl and a by the book attorney who could be her salvation…or her ruin.
Avett Walker and Quaid Jackson’s worlds have no reason to collide. Ever. Quaid is a high powered criminal attorney as slick as he is handsome. Avett is a pink-haired troublemaker with a bad attitude and a history of picking the wrong men.
When Avett lands in a sea of hot water because of one terrible mistake, the only person who can get her out of it is the insanely sexy lawyer. The last thing on earth she wants to do is rely on the no-nonsense attorney who thinks of her as nothing more than a nuisance. He literally has her fate in his hands. Yet there is something about him that makes her want to convince him to loosen his tie and have a little fun…with her.
Quaid never takes on clients like the impulsive young woman with a Technicolor dye job. She could stand to learn a hard lesson or two, but something about her guileless hazel eyes intrigues him. Still, he’s determined to keep their relationship strictly business. But doing so is becoming more impossible with each day he spends with her.
As they work side-by-side, they’ll have to figure out a way to get along and keep their hands off each other—because the chemistry between them is beyond charged.

Avett
Don’t worry, Sprite,
bad decisions always make for good stories…
I could hear my dad’s gruff voice, lightened with humor, in my ear as he told
me those words every single time I got caught doing something I wasn’t supposed
to do when I was growing up. I was always doing something I shouldn’t then and
now, so I heard those words a lot from him. Unfortunately, as an adult, my bad
decisions resulted in consequences far worse than a scraped knee or a broken
wrist from falling out of the tree in the backyard he warned me repeatedly wasn’t
sturdy enough to limb. And sadly, my dad reassuring me in his firm and gentle
way, while calling me his little Sprite as he kissed my boo-boos, wasn’t going
to help my current situation at all.
This boo-boo was big-time.
This boo-boo was life-changing.
This boo-boo was anything but a good story waiting to be told.
This boo-boo very well could be the end of me, the end of the rope where my
patient parents had dangled precariously for years, and it very well could be
the end of any kind of future I may have had. A future I was well on my way to
letting a lifetime of bad decisions and even worse choices screw up. At barely
twenty-two, bad decisions had sort of become my stock in trade and were as
familiar to me as my own face. I was almost legendary, at this point, for
putting all my trust in the absolutely wrong kind of people. If there was a
wrong path to take, I was going to skip gleefully down that road and not look
back until I ended up exactly in the kind of situation I found myself in at the
moment. It wasn’t like this was even a new dead end; it was the same one I ran
into over and over again. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get myself turned
around, and the longer I was at this dead end, the darker and more wicked it
became.
I knew better. I really did, even if there was a boatload of evidence
contradicting that fact.
I wasn’t stupid, naïve, immature, or senseless. I might appear that way to
anyone on the outside looking in, but I had my reasons for being a consummate
failure and lifelong loser. All of those reasons had nothing to do with me not
knowing better and everything to do with me knowing exactly what I deserved.
For a long time now I had been spiraling out of control, whirling, falling deep
and deeper into a pit of really awful actions and consequences, each seemingly
worse and more painful than the last. I also hadn’t made any kind of effort to
try and pull myself out of it, so logically I knew the only place I was going
to end up was right here, right at the lowest part of rock bottom. I never
imagined the landing would be so jarring.
