About this ebook

She's about to walk on the wild side . . .

While filling the display case in her bakery, the bell over the door sounds and Tessa O'Hara looks up to see the man of her dreams. Within thirty seconds he asks her out for a beer. But after four months of dating, she discovers he's an undercover DEA agent-and he's investigating her possible role in her ex-husband's drug business. For Tess, this means their relationship is over.

Brock disagrees. He's committed to his anti-drug mission, but he's fallen in love with the beautiful woman who's as sweet as her cupcakes-and he'll do anything to win her back. Standing between Tess and Brock are their own exes, one of them a drug lord who's determined to get what he wants. Now as danger threatens, can Brock break the rules he's lived by and let loose his wild side to protect the woman he loves?

Ratings and reviews

So, this was great, and that should come as no surprise - KA writes a vicious love story that sucks you in and won't let you go - you are in the world with these characters, waiting on baited breathe for what is next. Ever descriptive in creating a world where our characters are, in person, and in thought, but not overly so, we get to know our heroine through her actions and reactions, and how she sees and takes in things around her, is a huge part of that. Tess is no exception, and she sees everything through rose-coloured glasses, but not in an unrealistic way. She is an internal optimist, though she has a temper, and looks for the good in everything, how well things can go, and how she make people happy. When her temper flares, which is so unoften, she has no control over it, and it consumers her. She is tough, she is loving, and she is realistic Brock has seen and done so much in life, but he 'gets' Tess from before he meets her. There are bumps along the way, but he sticks with it, centers her as needed, and helps her because he has to. We only get our insight into Brock, when it switches to his POV near the end of the book. My heart broke for him, and my tears flowed freely. Tess got him so clearly, he was a good man, her Wild Man, her snake charmer, and they fit together perfectly Loved the story, the characters, side and main, new and repeats, the progression, the feelings evoked, and the overall feel of the story. I read this one last of the four Dream Man series, and the order of the books doesn't matter, but the wonderfulness of finding love will wash over you in each of these books

Kept my attention way past my bedtime! These characters felt very real and relatable to those of us with kids and products of divorce.

Love love love this authors writing style. I love this series and would give it a 5 star recommendation to anyone who asked. My new favorite fictional boyfriends.
