~ Excerpt ~
“So,
it’s true then?”
My
breathing stopped. “What’s true?” I asked cautiously.
“That
you don’t have sex before a big fight.” Her look was so innocent and hopeful,
yet it still took me a second to figure out why she was asking this.
“Yes,”
I finally answered. Her cute little frame seemed to relax a little, making me
feel—once again—like a total dick. She didn’t know I paid Sara; she was talking
about something completely different, about the night we almost hooked up. The
night I told her I couldn’t because I had a fight the next day.
She
chewed at the inside of her cheek a moment, maybe considering what I’d just
said. Shit, that meant she thought I’d just made that up to get rid of her. Not
fucking likely. Putting the brakes on that night had been the hardest thing I’d
ever done.
“So,”
she said as she looked up at me innocently through her eyelashes. “What does
that do? For a fighter, I mean.”
I
chuckled. “You mean besides frustrate the hell out of us?”
She
smiled—thank fucking goodness—then nodded for me to continue.
“You
know that stereotype that most guys are boneheaded cave dwellers driven by
instinct?”
“Is
it considered a stereotype if it’s true?” she said, then giggled.
God,
she had a great laugh.
I
nodded. “That’s what I was getting at. On some very basic level, we fight in
order to survive and procreate.”
She
scrunched up her nose, making her look super cute. “But wouldn’t you fight
better then? If you have sex, then you have someone to fight for, right?”
Her
hand went up to mine, which was still resting on her shoulder. She
absentmindedly played with my fingers until she noticed I was watching her, and
realized what she’d been doing. She let her hand drop.
I
shook my head. “We fight to procreate. Once we’ve had sex, we’ve done the job
and have no reason to fight.”
“Hmm.”
She nodded. “So I guess now that you aren’t fighting for a while, you’re free
to take care of business.” Her gaze drifted down my body.

See where it all began…….
Hard To Love
~ Synopsis ~
Cade’s always taken risks…
Cade takes cares of his sick younger sister by doing
what he does best--cage fighting and starring in adult movies, his newest
harebrained moneymaking scheme designed to pay for his sister’s growing medical
bills. But when his latest gig finds him admitted to the ER sporting an
erection from hell, thanks to the little pill given to him by the director, he
can’t get the pretty little nurse who treated him out of his head, even though
he knows she’s so far out of his league it should be illegal.
Alexa’s always played it safe…
Tired of being pigeonholed as the sweet, innocent one,
hardworking nursing student Alexa has been looking for ways to break out of her
Goody Two-shoes image. When her friend suggests the outlandish idea of losing
her virginity to the sexy and sure-to-be-skilled porn star, Alexa is mortified.
But then when Cade refuses her proposition, she finds herself pissed off and
embarrassed. When she tracks him down to give him a piece of her mind, she
isn’t prepared for what she finds. Watching him care for his little sister tugs
at her heart, and suddenly it’s no longer just about losing her virginity, but
about helping Cade. Because Lord help her, she might actually be falling for a
porn star…
