Torque: A Bad Boy Next Door Romance

Book excerpt: She’s his little sister’s best friend—totally off limits. But then again, this tattooed bad boy has never followed the rules. Maddie: I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t in love with Nathan Burns. We met when I was six and twenty years later, I love him still. But he’ll never see me as anything other than his little sister’s best friend—a pest—if he even thinks of me that much. I’ve got to face facts. He’s not into me. He’ll never be into me. It’s beyond time to move on. Nathan: I swear I blinked and my little sister’s best friend—a woman who’s about as off-limits as it can get—grew up. And she’s hot as hell. When did that happen? It doesn’t help that she’s everywhere now—at our weekly family dinner nights, sleeping on my brother’s couch next door, lying out in our complex’s swimming pool in a barely-there bikini. And who are these losers hanging around her lately? None of them are worthy of the woman she’s become. Then again, neither am I. And when I stumble across her profile on a hook up app, all bets are off. *Can be read as a standalone*
