Bleeding Edge

Emmie

On run since my teens, my whole life is built around a quick exit. But when a violent attack leaves me vulnerable, I’m forced to rely on the only man that makes me wish I could stay - Lucien Falco.

To keep him safe, I can’t let him get close, but the man is determined to break down all my barriers .

Lucien

Raised in a loving close-knit family, my roots run deep, and I’ve always known what I’ve been looking for in a partner, but no woman has ever come close.

Until Emmie.

The talented, beautiful hacker is a puzzle I ache to solve. With her life in danger, I’ll do whatever it takes to protect the woman I love.

Even if that means losing her in the process.

If you love a story that involves a protective Aussie alpha and a kickass heroine mixed with romantic suspense - then this is the book for you!

Trigger warning: This is a darker book than my other series and contains some violence and references to abuse. A happily ever after is still guaranteed, but this is a gritty series so proceeded with caution.

Present Day

They say no good story starts with a salad but mine did. So, here goes.

It started with a salad. It wasn’t even a good one like with feta or pear or chicken. No, limp soggy leaves sat sadly in a bowl surrounded by three evil looking prawns, their buggy eyes stared out at me. I hated prawns with the fiery vengeance of a thousand suns. This was one salad I did not want to make friends with.

I hadn’t planned or even wanted to go out. Addie, the executive assistant at the security firm where I worked, had pestered me until I’d acquiesced. Addie had style with a capital cool. A total glam babe – I’d never seen her in anything less than full pin-up vintage. Despite my protests, she’d convinced me to attend Thursday night trivia.

We were at a small bar just down the street from my office. I’d had a burger for lunch and convinced myself I should make an attempt to be healthy and order something light for dinner.

Immediate regret.

I reached for the menu, looking back over the description. Yep. No mention of prawns. My nose wrinkled in disgust as I stared at my salad, gingerly poking a crustacean with the tines of my fork.

“Just saying, that looks horrible,” Addie commented, taking a giant bite out of her deliciously decadent burger. She moaned, rolling her eyes in exaggerated joy.

I grunted, holding up a limp leaf for closer inspection. “Maybe if I–”

“Swap it.” The deep voice interrupted.

I glanced at my boss, Luc, my cheeks warming as I realised all eyes at our table were now on me.

“Umm.” I abruptly stood, the chair scraping awkwardly as I struggled to ignore the chuckles and gentle teasing from my colleagues. I picked up the plate, muttering, “Be right back.”

I worked for a private security company. Elliot Securities was fast becoming one of the biggest names in the business. They did everything from private security for the rich and famous through to investigations and software checks. If
