He's not the kind of man you take home to Mama.
Evan Chambers knows he's rough around the edges. He earned those scars in the worst kind of childhood. Now, he's a successful businessman, living in paradise. The only ripple in his perfect life is May Aiona. She soothes his worst wounds. Being near her leaves him breathless and feeling like a teenager, but thankfully she's oblivious to his desires.
She's ready to take control...by letting go.
May Aiona's dating life is beyond boring. She loves dominant men, but her personality attracts men who expect her to take charge. It doesn't help that the one man she wants sees her as a friend. Even though he's her type, she is definitely not his. To move on, she takes the advice of her friend and steps into Rough 'n Ready to explore her needs.
A temptation neither of them can ignore.
Evan's rules fly out the window the night May shows up ready to submit to his best friend. The idea of watching another man touch her is unacceptable. One taste will never be enough, so Evan proposes a friends with benefits situation, and May agrees. Falling in love should be happy, but the whisper of his tainted childhood is always there, as is the person who is obsessed with hurting May. One fight puts the lovers at odds, and May in the sights of an obsessive stalker.
For Evan, dealing with his past isn’t easy, but losing May is unacceptable.

From an early age, USA Today Bestselling author Melissa loved to read. First, it was the books her mother read to her including her two favorites, Winnie the Pooh and the Beatrix Potter books. She cut her preteen teeth on Trixie Belden and read and reviewed To Kill a Mockingbird in middle school. It wasn’t until she was in college that she tried to write her first stories, which were full of angst and pain, and really not that fun to read or write. After trying several different genres, she found romance in a Linda Howard book.
Since her first published book, Grace Under Pressure, Mel has had over 60 short stories, novellas, and novels published. She has written in genres ranging from historical to contemporary to futuristic and has worked with 8 publishers although she handles most of her publishing herself. She is best known for her Harmless and Santini series.
After years of following her military husband around the country and world, Mel happily lives with her family in horse and wine country in Northern Virginia.
