It’s just a belated goodbye, right? No harm, no foul.

Entangled: Brazen


It’s been thirteen years since Hope Moore left Devil’s Falls, land of sexy cowboys and bad memories. Back for the weekend, she has no intention of seeing the man she never got over…or the two of them getting down and dirty. It’s just a belated goodbye, right? No harm, no foul.

Until six weeks later, when her pregnancy test comes back positive…

Daniel Rodriguez hasn’t forgiven himself for how things went down with Hope all those years ago. He knows she’s better off without him, but when she shows up on his doorstep, panicking because she’s pregnant with his baby, he can’t help seeing it as a chance to make up for the past.

Too bad Hope has no intention of going along with his plans.

Hope shook her head. “You’re as much an idiot now as you were then.”
And then she kissed him.
It caught him a little off guard—he hadn’t expected her to be the one to make the first move, especially after the way the scene in the bathroom had gone down—but Daniel wasted no time taking control. He kissed down her neck, sliding his hands beneath her shirt and skating them up to her body to cup her breasts. They filled his palms, familiar and yet not, all at the same time. He cursed. “Gorgeous Darling, the things you do to me.” He nipped her collarbone. “I’m going to taste you, so if you’re going to change your mind, now’s the time to do it.”
Her only response was to shove her yoga pants down to her knees.
He lifted her onto the counter and disentangled her right leg from the pants so he could spread her fully. He stroked her thighs, pausing when his fingers met the scar. It brought up so many conflicting feelings in him. It was his fault that she had the damn thing, but that didn’t mean he thought of her as less, the way she seemed to think. She was as beautiful now as she’d been at eighteen, and more confident despite her injury. Or maybe because of it. He had no idea.
All he knew was that at some point he was going to have to get up close and personal with her healed injury, and he was going to have to tread very, very carefully to avoid burning what was left of the bridge between him and Hope.
“If you apologize, I might actually kick you.”
That snapped him out of it. As much as he wanted Hope, he had an ulterior motive for pushing her now. All getting distracted by her leg was going to do was fuck up his chance of convincing her to stay, in his house and in his bed. He jerked her to the edge of the counter, spreading her thighs wider. “Don’t scream. You’ll upset Ollie.”
And then he did what he’d been fantasizing about ever since he walked out of her life. Daniel dipped his head and gave her center one long lick. She tasted better than he remembered, her body already shaking for him, so he used his thumbs to part her folds and licked her again, reacquainting himself with every inch of her.
“Oh.”
He looked up her body to find her head thrown back and her chest rising and falling with each harsh breath. “Take off your shirt.”
Hope wasted no time obeying, dragging the material over her head and tossing it away. And then there was nothing hiding her body from his gaze. He licked her again, savoring the way she shook. A tattoo curling around the bottom of her ribs caught his eye, but he was too distracted to read it.
He was tired of teasing her. He wanted to feel her orgasm again, to know she was coming apart at the seams because of him. Daniel sucked her clit into his mouth, stroking the sensitive little nub with the flat of his tongue the way she’d always loved. Sure enough, before he had a chance to truly savor her, Hope cried out his name and shuddered, her thighs squeezing his head as she came. He gentled his touches, licks turning to kisses, turning to the slightest brushing of his lips against her. Only when she stopped shaking did he raise his head. “Stay, at least until we figure out what we’re doing.”


A Fool For You is a second chance romance story, but more than that, its also a story of forgiveness and a story of rebuilding trust.

Hope and Daniel were happily in love years ago, and then an accident ripped their worlds apart and eveyrthing changed. IN an effort to ease his guilt, Daniel forced a breakup on Hope, at the worst time possible. He's still not moved on from that accident and the guilt he feels over it, not allowing any real happiness into his life. But when Hope returns to town for a quick trip, something unexpected happens and then everything changes.

Hope can't believe she's gotten herself in this situation, she's a grown woman who knew better, and Daniel was a grown man who also should have known better, but facts are facts, and she can't escape the fact that she's pregnant. But even so, Hope knows what she could and couldn't live with, and being an obligation to Daniel is a definite No. She let him break her heart once before, and now there's more than just herself to take care of.

Daniel has always loved Hope, but felt he didn't deserve her. Giving her up for her greater good was his intention and he allowed it to override any other thoughts about what he was doing. But when she's back, and carrying his baby, he knows he'll have to do whatever it takes to earn her trust again and win her back. He can't lose his child or the woman he's never moved past.

A fool for you is a highly emotional journey for Daniel and Hope, they are both still holding in their feelings, letting guilt and regret eat away at their souls, letting the scars from the past fester and keep causing pain. Daniel has a lot to make up for to Hope and you can see that he finally gets what he did to her when he made his decision all those years ago. This book hit me right in the heart, the pain these two went through was rough, the scars both physical and emotional, easy to hide behind. Watching as these two worked through it all, as they worked to figure out the future, as they moved on from the past, it all tugged on my heartstrings and made me Feel. This story offered more than a second chance at love (and life) for these two, but gave them more, a grander understanding of each other.

The chemistry was vibrant, their banter added emphasis on their feelings, whether they'd admit to them or not. They could fight and deny as much as they wanted, but it was clear that there was no one else for them. The unexpected surprise of pregnancy was the perfect device to get these two really talking again, getting them to focus on what was coming, and what they needed to figure out between each other.
