From NYT and USA Today bestselling author A.L. Jackson comes a single-dad, enemies-to-lovers stand-alone romance about a jaded club owner and his son’s teacher....

Eden Murphy came into my club looking to make some extra cash.

A girl like her didn't belong in a place like this.

She'd get ripped to shreds.

Most likely by me.

There's nothing but sweetness dripping from her sexy little body, and I'm the monster who's salivating to get a taste.

Trent Lawson is the last man I should want.

Dark.

Dangerous.

So wickedly gorgeous he makes my knees weak.

He's also an arrogant jerk who happens to be my new boss.

When I discover his adorable son is also in my kindergarten class, I know I have to keep my distance.

But neither of us can ignore the attraction that flames.

One glance, and our hearts race.

One touch, and we’re aching for what we can’t have.

One night, and we’re falling fast.

Dragging her into my sordid world is wrong.

It doesn’t matter.

Eden Murphy is mine.

*CWs for this title are available on my website.

This book is great and filled with angst. My only complaint is the number of times the author uses the phrase "dip my fingers". It was driving me nuts, like over a dozen times in the MMC's internal dialogue.

Really good

I’ll wait for things to go on discount again before I go through the series no offense. I like the book but it stalled in the middle a little too long but the ending was fire.

It was great the Smutt was light

I love an intense, grumpy, single dad who carries the weight of the world on his shoulders. Insert Trent Lawson the tattooed club owner and former Vice President of a Motorcycle Gang. Eden Murphy is a sweet and resilient kindergarten teacher who’s a little broken but will do whatever she can for the ones she loves. Which leads her into Trent’s club Absolution looking for a job to make extra money.
Trent is a ghost, a killer, a monster and Eden is an innocent, pure, and sweet. They were the perfect blend of good and bad. Their story was beautiful and heartbreaking as they each tried to navigate the grief and loss of ones they loved and the secrets in their pasts.
This story touched on not only love, hope and trust, but pain, grief, learning to let go, and overcoming obstacles from both past and present.
My biggest issue with this book, especially because I was listening to the audiobook, was how often Eden called her dad “daddy”. For a grown adult woman, it just felt very uncomfortable to be calling her actual dad daddy. It felt very childish to me to have her calling him daddy all the time instead of just dad. I think if I’d been reading the physical book, I could have skipped over it but on audio it just seemed like she spent a lot of time talking about her “daddy”. Normally, when a woman is calling someone “daddy” it certainly isn’t her dad 😏
