A one-night stand, a surprise baby, and a mysterious stalker.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mechanic Benjamin Starwell can\u2019t stop thinking about Belle Hamlin, the ballsy musician he slept with and skipped out on months earlier. He never meant to get her pregnant, but he\u2019ll do whatever it takes to win back her trust and be a part of his child\u2019s life. His desire for Belle drives him to be a better man, but he\u2019s worn thin with a garage to run and his estranged sister dumping her troubles on him.<\/p>\n

Belle\u2019s juggling impending motherhood, her indie rock career, and a stalker who\u2019s determined to see her fail. Even though she\u2019s desperate to get her priorities straight, she pushes aside her past hurt and welcomes Benji back into her bed. She never expects him to slip into her heart.<\/p>\n

When the danger escalates, they face the greatest challenge of all\u2014protecting their unborn child.<\/p>\n

Tagline<\/strong> \u2013 With enemies at every turn, how will they survive with their lives and love intact?<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n

As he drew to a stop beside Lando\u2019s station wagon in the driveway, Belle parked along the curb. The motion detector light flashed on from the old shed, nearly blinding him. He climbed from the truck. Moonlight cast a stark, silvery glow over the yard as Belle hurried toward him.<\/p>\n

\u201cCool. A duplex.\u201d She tightened her scarf around her neck. \u201cWhen was it built?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 1940s. I live in the right-side unit, and my landlord lives in the other one.\u201d He rubbed his hands together as a breeze rustled through the trees. \u201cLando\u2019s children moved out east, so he converted the family home into a duplex about two decades ago. The old-timer is spry but pushing eighty. I take care of the house and grounds. In return, he deducts my rent.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLando<\/em> the landlord?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHilarious, right?\u201d Benji chuckled. \u201cI\u2019ve lived here for about fifteen years. God, I can\u2019t believe it\u2019s been so long.\u201d Crickets chirped from the bushes lining the covered wooden porch as he guided her up the platform. The middle step creaked under his weight. Decorative fixtures lit each doorway, and he hesitated at the entrance of his home.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything all right?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI should\u2019ve told you this before now, but my sister has been staying with me. She\u2019s barely crossed my mind, though. All I\u2019ve cared about is making things right with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Belle drew back. \u201cI didn\u2019t think you had any contact with her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe called me from out of the blue. It\u2019s a long story. I\u2019ll tell you about it at dinner.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIs Meghan why you have those marks?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately.\u201d He rubbed his cheek, the bruise barely stinging.<\/p>\n

After he ushered Belle inside, he flipped on a light and locked the door behind him. A staircase lined the dividing wall that separated Benji\u2019s home from Lando\u2019s. The hall stretched to the right of the stairs, leading deeper into the house.<\/p>\n

\u201cFeel free to look around. The door beneath the stairs opens into the basement and laundry room. The steps are steep, so be careful.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou expect me to snoop? What will I find in the basement\u2014chains and whips?\u201d<\/p>\n

He groaned from the devilish gleam in her eyes. \u201cIf I\u2019m gonna chain you, it\u2019ll be to my bed.\u201d He shifted sideways, trying to hide the sudden bulge in his jeans. \u201cYou\u2019re welcome here anytime.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you. That means a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n
