The first in a new series from the “wicked-hot”* author of Hard Time and Give It All explores the fantasies of a daring married couple—and those of a stranger invited to play along in their scandalous little games… When he’s working, Mike Heyer is all business—every inch the alpha male, with the hard, capable body to back up his persona. But at home he can be a different man entirely, harboring appetites only his wife gets to glimpse... When Samira first learned of her husband’s fantasies, she was reluctant, even alarmed. But after witnessing the way they set him on fire, she yielded, and happily indulged. As their games have intensified, so has the rush. And now so has the risk—they’re poised to take Mike’s indecent desires to the next level, by opening their bed to a sexy, brazen stranger. A man seeming custom-made to grant every last one of Mike and Samira’s sinful wishes. Welcoming someone new into their lives was always a dangerous proposition, but the couple imagined if anything was at stake, it was their privacy…not their hearts. *New York Times Bestselling Author Jaci Burton

Like many young men growing up in the violent political hotbed of Northern Ireland during the 1980s, Mick McNabb developed an intense, revenge-driven, hatred for the British and the Protestant Loyalists. But by the time he was eighteen, Mick stood out as a type of messianic figure for the Catholics of Northern Ireland, and a devil to the British authorities. A combination of fiery rhetoric and brazen acts of violence force Mick to flee his beloved homeland, an odyssey which takes the young Irishman to various locations around the world, including a stint in the United States where he assumes a new name and identity. Lulled into complacency by his middle-American surroundings to the plight of those who considered him a savior, Mick eventually becomes estranged from the freedom struggle in Northern Ireland. Mick’s previous life would eventually catch up with him, however, thrusting Mick McNabb back into The Troubles of Northern Ireland. Initially in the good graces of the Irish Republican Army, Mick’s reckless exploits, as well as growing cult of personality and megalomania, eventually cause the IRA to consider him a liability and a detriment, and the freedom fighter from Belfast soon finds himself a target of both sides in the century-old conflict.
