IOU, Book 5
Picking up your favorite adult film star at a bar in Vegas is a bad idea—especially when you wake up the next morning married to him. Ask me how I know.
Before I met Velvet the Cowboy, the public knew me as an innocuous guy who was running for office.
Now I've gone from boring to notorious in twenty-four hours.
The hot stranger's ring on my finger puts a damper on my political ambitions, since his day job isn't voter-friendly. An annulment is a no-go, and a quickie divorce would make me look unreliable.
In any case, when I find out Velvet's dark plans, I know I can't let him out of my sight. Which means I'm taking a gorgeous, 6'6", slow-talking cowboy home with me to protect him from himself.
Being with him might light my career on fire. I'm just not expecting it to do the same to my heart.
Notorious is a stand-alone contemporary romance about Johnny Haskell, a cowboy turned adult star who stops to pet every good dog (and they're all good dogs), and Kurt Delmont, a senatorial candidate who wants to save the world. It features recovery from a mental health crisis, healing from old wounds, and love that takes these two by surprise. This book contains sensitive themes; a detailed description of the contents is in the author's note in the book preview. Happily ever after guaranteed.
Excerpt:
Velvet gazes at me with concern as he, too, appears to be putting the night together. At least, that's how I interpret the scrunch of his nose. His sleepy eyes register genuine bewilderment.
"Hey, darlin'," he whispers, his iconic voice deep, with a hint of a drawl. "Are you okay?" He rubs his temples.
"I … don't know," I admit, drawing my knees to my chest and wrapping my hands around my calves. As I do, I notice something amiss. Well, something else amiss.
My naked companion nods, as if my words make perfect sense. "Yeah. Last night must've been wild, since I'm not entirely sure how I got back here." His eyes dart to his left hand, and he squints. "What in tarnation?" Then he looks at my hand at the same time I pull it up to my face to inspect it.
A ring circles the fourth finger. A shiny platinum band without any scratches or dings.
I don't wear a ring on that hand. I don't wear jewelry, period. I glance back at Velvet and confirm that he's got a ring on his fourth finger, too.
I blink.
He blinks.
I furrow my brow.
He does the same.
"Um," I rasp, staring at my ring, then gesturing to his. "Do you know where these came from?"
Velvet starts to shake his head and then frowns. A light dawns in his now fully awake eyes. He cocks his head as he studies his hand. He blows out his cheeks, then releases the air. "Well, heck," he says. "I think we might be hitched. What's your name again?
