Ex-Seal Bad Boy

Ethan Blackwood—my brother’s grumpy best friend, has returned to our small beach town and now I’m in way over my head.

He’s a billionaire ex-SEAL, but his bad-boy reputation and that shady,

powerful family of his have always been red flags.

He is the man I should never want.

And now he’s making it clear that he’s off-limits for a reason.

I thought I was going to drown and Ethan suddenly appeared.

He wasn’t supposed to be the one pulling me from the water—or the one I couldn’t resist.

But one night with Ethan, and I’m tangled in temptation, even as he turns colder than ever.

This fake relationship was supposed to be a cover for a business deal, nothing more.

But every stolen glance, every electrifying touch, has me questioning everything I thought I knew.

He’s supposed to be my protector, a temporary fix—

But I’m starting to fall for the man who’s meant to be my enemy.
