Tempted Beyond Reason
(2019)Wake & Lacey
(The first book in the Far Too Tempting series)
A novel by Christa Wick
Trust me, I know she’s way too freaking gentle and innocent for my hardened, grumpy ass...
There’s a reason I was hired to protect her by one of the few former military buddies I consider a friend. Because I’m the man people call to get the job done, even if the job is guarding the sweetest, most distracting woman I’ve ever known.
I’ve somehow been able to keep my hands off her these past months as her bodyguard, but that’s before I learn why she’s avoiding the biggest decision of her life. The surgery could either restore her sight or take away what little she can see forever; and I’m the reason she’s been holding off.
She says she wants one night with me—her first time, no less—while she still has a fraction of her vision left. Hell, I don’t know what the right thing to do here is. But what I do know is that protecting her isn’t just a job for me anymore.
And one night? That’s damn sure not going to cut it.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I know you all are used to me doing mostly-heroine-POV or dual-POV, but for this one, I went with a mostly-hero-POV for a fun & sexy change. Buff, gruff bodyguard Wake Robinson just had too many yummy, growly thoughts and I just had to write this story mostly from his POV. Enjoy!
Previously published as Waking Up Her Curves (c) 2015, revised throughout with newly added content and an extended ending.
