(2026)(The third book in the Serpent's Tongue Ink series)
A novel by Katja Desjarlais
A fantasy older woman hiding her past. A younger bad boy with everything to prove. It’s wrong. Unthinkable. And irresistibly tempting.
Four months after a brutal attack and kidnapping at the hands of a drug kingpin meant to teach his notorious brothers a lesson, twenty-three-year-old engineering graduate student Grey Baker needs to seize back control of his life. He heads back to class and the gym, driven by the need to be faster, stronger, better. His smokin’ hot trainer fiercely builds his body and provides a sexy distraction through the pain. But Grey wants more from her.
Melody Zeher will never again cede control. Divorced at thirty-three and still dogged by the mental and emotional abuse of her ex, she pushes her clients to their edge and beyond and trains rescue dogs all while attempting to tamp down the burning lust her young client ignites. She doesn’t want the emotional burden of a relationship ever again.
But Grey offers to play it her way. The rules are set. Lines drawn. Limits established. What could go wrong?
Genre: Romantic Suspense
