Description from the publisher:

Tate & Low's story.

I'm loud, I'm proud, and I like to bust balls in my spare time. At least, that's what Low Parker would do. But, she is just a mask, one that I have perfected over years of running. I am Willow Knoxx. Master of deception, secrets, and lies. I am the girl your mother told you to stay away from, and the girl your father fantasized about. I have been running for years, always looking over my shoulder. Now, the mask that I have perfected is about to disappear, and everything I have done to keep myself hidden is about to be revealed.

“Enough room?” He growled, his brow arching at my comment. “Baby, I don’t think you get it yet. I want to consume your every thought, every movement, every desire.”

His hands suddenly cupped my face as he leaned in close, his breath caressing my lips like soft silk. My pulse skyrocketed at his closeness, as it did every time he was near, sending me dizzy with lust. I could feel the vulnerability snaking its way through my body, latching onto my crimson blood as it slowly seeped through my skin. I could physically smell my vulnerability as it permeated the air around us. I could smell it, taste it, see it.

“Okay,” I squeaked, the fear of my secrets dripping from my soft voice.

“Listen, and listen good, Low. I will consume every part of you. I will consume every thought, every movement, every desire. You won’t be able to breathe without thinking of me, feeling me, wanting only me. Am I clear?”

Oh dear god.

I could feel the lump in my throat forming, choking me with every second that passed, seconds that felt like torturous hours.

“Yes,” I replied on a shaky breath.

Words had yet again failed me. I was sprouting one word answers because Tate did something to me that no man had ever accomplished. He made me feel.

His lips suddenly crashed against my own, the power he held over me pushing boundaries I didn’t know were there. His teeth scraped against my bottom lip, pulling and tugging as if pleading for entry. My head screamed, begged, and bartered, yelling at me to stop, to push back and leave. But his lips and teeth held me captive, my heart jumping at the chance to finally overpower my head, all too willing to be his victim.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the third book in the Bad Boy series. They definitely need to be read in order.

The rest of the gang has pretty much known each other for years, but Low was taken into their group when she moved to town. She and her mother are hiding from a past that could destroy them and everyone they love, but it’s all about to hit the fan!

Low Parker may be tough as nails, but Willow Knoxx can bang those nails into the door with her bare hands. Holy hell!! This woman is not just a strong character, she will out-Superman most of the men. She may have been living behind a mask of perfect make-up, but when midnight strikes, she isn’t running down the stairs and leaving the mask behind. Instead, she will come out fighting for those she loves and cares for in this world.

I swear, I’m breathless after reading this book. Several times I had to stop and remind myself, “it’s just a book. It’s just a book.” Then I would dive right back in again.

I have loved every book in this series, but this one is the best. I am jumping up and down wanting the next book!
