There’s a reason for the nickname…

Sofie Carter hated him. His smile. His cockiness. His swagger. Everything about him made her want to choose violence.

Jaxon Keith should come with a warning label stamped on his forehead.

His arrogance made her see red, but apparently, women loved him and what he had to offer.

But Sofie wanted nothing to do with him.

She only had to be around him because his twin was married to her best friend. They even shared godparent duties of the couple's new baby, so there was no way she could avoid him.

Sofie could never be with a man like him. At least that's what she told herself.

She also told herself she wouldn't think about the night they shared.

Okay, the few nights where she indulged in what Jaxon offered.

She'd had a taste.

It was official.

She was addicted.

Would one night be enough?

Alana Thorton had watched her new neighbor move in across the hall. Women came and went. Each one who left his apartment had a satisfied smile on her lips.

London Keith was a player--bad news.

Spying on him became her favorite pastime. It earned him a nickname...Mr. Hotness.

Alana swore she'd never give in to a guy like him. He would do nothing but break her heart. But curiosity got the best of her. What was so alluring about London?

Then she saw him with his shirt off. Heard his sexy accent, and she completely forgot she'd vowed to steer clear.

Alana had been celibate too long, but London could fix her problem. She might as well let him try.

It would only be one night.

It was quite obvious the man had skills.

Still, she didn't expect her neighbor to be quite so...addicting.

Please note: Mr. Hotness was previously featured in the Tangled Sheets anthology. This is the extended version of the story. It is a steamy BWWM romance as only Peyton Banks can write.

A forbidden night of passion. She's his weakness, but he'll risk it all when it comes to her safety.

Zain Roman had sworn off women. Now a bitter divorcé, he no longer believed in the sanctity of marriage. Zain was only interested in having fun, with no strings attached. He was committed to his job in policing the streets and taking down bad guys as a member of the finest SWAT team in the state.

He loved his team, and when he lost a bet, he was man enough to pay up.

Salon owner Omara Knight knew she was playing with fire. One look at the officer sitting in her chair, and she knew she was intrigued. Omara had no time for a love life. She had a business to run and a son to raise.

Zain was a temptation she should avoid. Her sister warned her about him, but Omara never did as she was told.

There was something about a man in uniform that had her wanting to indulge in the sexy pleasures his eyes promised. One night was all she needed.

At least that's what she tried to tell herself.

Zain sensed Omara was hiding something, and when her past came back for her, he's willing to do everything in his power to keep her safe—even give her his heart, but will it be too late?

Trouble follows her wherever she goes. He’s a man willing to prove his love for her.

Nykee Nash returned home to Shady Springs a changed woman. No longer was she the juvenile delinquent who committed crimes and broke the law. Nykee had paid her debt to society and wanted to move on with her life. She threw herself into her new passion and was the happiest she had ever been.

Until Karl sauntered through the door of her newly established business.

Around Karl, Nykee began to live again.

Karl Tanis didn’t know what hit him. One look in Nykee’s warm brown eyes, and he was a goner. Karl had heard of her past but believed everyone deserves a second chance. He had spent most of his life working a ranch and was no stranger to hard work.

He was up for the challenge to wrangle in Nykee’s heart.

She’s stubborn, but he’s confident he will win her over. But with a twist of fate, everything they had came crashing down around them.

Nykee doesn’t want him anywhere near her now, refusing to let him help fight her battles. There’s no way he is leaving her alone. He will not give up on their love because she would be hard to forget...
