Hard to Get

Who needs boys when a girl?s got toys? The author of Come and Get Me has the answer in her sizzling new novel.

Lizzy Cross has given up on men. When it comes to fulfillment, they don?t come close to a night alone with her fantasies and a wide variety of immensely pleasurable substitutions. Then on the night of her sister?s bachelorette party, Lizzy finds herself staring at the very naked and very familiar torso of her ex?

Cockier than ever as a cowboy stripper in leather chaps (and nothing else), Ty is determined to win Lizzy back by taking his act off the stage and putting it back between the sheets. But will he be able to get past the kink that stands between them and show her the true pleasure a flesh-and-blood man can give her?
