Off Limits





“There is a vulnerability there, hovering just below the surface. And I want to pick at it until I expose it. Then I want to kiss it." 

Two years ago, Emily Burnham, had an epiphany about the shallowness of her life. And she made it her mission to become a different person…a better woman. Out from under the controlling thumb of her mother, Emily is tasting the real world for the first time. And she likes it.

Nixon Caldwell has served his time in the Marine Corps, surviving two brutal tours in Afghanistan. He is back home, surrounded by what he likes best…isolation. It's certainly the best way to avoid confrontation of the consuming guilt that is weighing him down.

When an accident brings Emily and Nix together, he soon learns he is not the master of his own fate. Struggling with his own pain, Nix tries to guard himself against Emily’s charms. He wants her in his bed, but he doesn’t want her in his heart. 

Having grabbed life by the horns, Emily wants it all. But is she willing to accept just the small part of himself that Nix is offering? Can she reach the part of his soul that he has deemed to be Off Limits?

Nix & Emily were attracted to each other from the first crunch of metal. It was exciting to read how Emily got under Nix's skin without him even knowing and then him trying to not let it get any deeper. Emily is a brave, strong, loving young woman who inspires Nix. Nix is a strong, brave, smok'n hot man who just needs help seeing that. Lots of hot juicy sex. Great ending.

"Oh, we're compatible. Your working parts and mine were in perfect alignment just a few seconds ago."
