Blog post#tbt Dirty and Dangerous is one of my all-time fave books. It was a complete blast to write. It took me to unexpected places. And it’s still one of the hottest things I’ve ever put to page.
Not that long ago, I relaunched this book with a “discreet” cover. But the more I looked at it, the more I wanted a better, more accurate representation of this fast-burn trio’s story. Hope you enjoy this new look!

Titles By Shayla Black
When the woman he loves is taken, Forest “Trees” Scott abandons a mission to save her from the enemy. Fearing the worst, he moves heaven and earth to find her—until he realizes Laila Torres left him of her own free will for the man who used her for six years. He’s stunned and wrecked. She played him—and he fell for it. One thing he’s not doing? Giving up. He’ll find her and he’ll make her pay…in his bed.
Laila is devastated by her tormentor’s return, but when he threatens the bodyguard she’s so foolishly fallen for, she risks everything—including her life—to protect Trees. As a mere pawn in a deadly game played by factions of a cartel, she and Trees have no future unless she can somehow destroy them. But she doesn’t count on Trees hunting her down, stripping her soul bare, and insisting in the sexiest way possible that she belongs to him and always will.
But danger awaits around every corner, and secrets abound. As Trees and Laila fight for their future, their enemies close in. Will they let go of their hurts and trust in their love before it’s too late?
*This is part two of Trees and Laila’s duet. If you have not read part one, Wicked as Seduction, please start there.*
Tech wiz and former elite soldier Forest “Trees” Scott had one mission: Rescue the woman being hunted by a vicious cartel and get her to safety. It should have been simple…but the minute he sees the wary beauty with haunted eyes, his desire for her complicates everything. So does her stubborn refusal to trust him. When Trees is forced to abduct her, she vows to hate him—even as he finds himself falling in love…
For six years, Laila Torres has known nothing but brutality at the hands of men, so when the massive stranger with the forbidding mien kidnaps her, she’s frightened—and furious. But the giant’s protective care shocks her. With every word, he proves steadfast. With every forbidden touch, he awakens the woman in her. Soon, she’s facing the terrifying realization that he’s also dangerously close to capturing her heart.
But their ruthless enemies are closing in, threatening everything Laila holds dear. When she’s forced to make an unthinkable sacrifice, will she trust Trees and their love to save her?
Morgan O’Malley has seen a lot of kinky things as the hostess of a cable sex talk show. But she’s never met a man like Jack Cole before. A self-proclaimed dominant, he’s as alpha as a male can get—and good for Morgan to have around when an obsessed stalker ratchets up his attempts to get to her.
Until he made her beg for it.
Though Jack is a bodyguard, Morgan feels anything but safe in his presence because, slowly and seductively, Jack is bringing her deepest fantasies to the surface. And when he bends her to his will, what’s more shocking than her surrender is how much she enjoys it—and starts to crave his masterful touch. A willing player in Jack’s games, Morgan knows that his motives aren’t pure, but she has no idea how personal they are…
The good girl is keeping a secret? He’ll seduce it out of her until she begs to be his.
Sniper Pierce “One-Mile” Walker nearly had everything he ever wanted—until a fateful mission stripped it all away. Now an outcast, he’s forced to watch the off-limits beauty who stole his heart slip through his fingers. Left with nothing but revenge, he’s determined to defeat evil and win her back. But when he learns she’s planning a future without him, he vows he’ll break every rule and defy all odds to make her his again—forever.
Brea Bell was always a good girl…until Pierce Walker. Despite everyone’s warnings, she gave the rough warrior her body—and her heart. When she receives news that shatters her world, he devastates her by walking away. Terrified of losing all she’s ever known, Brea tucks away her dreams and commits to a “safe” future. Then Pierce appears in the dead of night, challenging and seducing her. Brea isn’t sure she can trust him…but she also can’t say no.
Angry and betrayed, he leaves to pursue vengeance, while her sins are exposed to the world, forcing her to fight painful battles. Can Brea and Pierce conquer the dangers that threaten their happily ever after…or will fate wrench them apart forever?
Raine Kendall has everything a woman could want—almost. Sexy, tender Liam O’Neill is her knight in shining armor, but is he too good to be true or could their growing connection actually last a lifetime? To complicate matters, she can’t shake her feelings for her commanding boss, Macen Hammerman, especially after the mind-blowing night he stopped fighting their attraction, took her to bed, and ravished every inch of her.
Now there might be consequences.
While Hammer can’t stop coveting Raine and counting the days of her cycle with glee, Liam resolves to keep her for his own. But she stubbornly refuses to open the corners of her scarred heart. Determined to win her for good, Liam risks everything. Though once he puts his plan in motion, she proves as elusive as smoke. It’s a bitter pill when he needs Hammer’s help to bring her home. And Liam can’t help but wonder…will Raine ever be his again or will he lose her to his ex-best friend for good?
(Another heap of edgy, angsty goodness right here, featuring two smoking-hot and very protective heroes. This story isn’t the only thing packed full of double delight... It will totally leave you panting and desperate for more!)

He wants her…and he doesn’t care that she’s the enemy.
Chase “Zyron” Garrett left a bloody stint with Uncle Sam for the personal security business. His employment agreement forbids hookups with co-workers, which isn’t a problem—until Tessa Lawrence, the office secretary and single mom, is harassed by her vengeful ex-boyfriend. Zy is assigned to protect her, but the moment he meets the gorgeous blonde, those contractual restrictions tighten around him like a noose.
Tessa Lawrence is alone in the world…except for her newborn baby, and she’s determined to survive without a man. Then Zy walks through her door. Fiercely protective yet tender, he’s everything she wants in a man, lover, and father for her daughter. But he’s totally off-limits. If she falls, she’ll be fired.
When a teammate is captured and the enemy predicts their every move, it’s clear they’ve got a mole. The bosses task Zy with discovering their traitor, and all clues point to the woman he’s fast falling for. With danger lurking, he finds himself caught in a tangle of unquenched need and searing betrayal. Will their love be the greatest casualty of all?
For agonizing months, Chase “Zyron” Garrett has been forbidden from touching Tessa, the pretty office assistant who makes him burn. But when danger strikes EM Security Management and top-secret information is leaked, it’s obvious the team has a mole…and the evidence points to the woman he’s fallen for.
The bosses demand he investigate her, so he resolves to stop at nothing, even stripping her bare—body and soul—for the truth. Tessa Lawrence has known heartbreak in the past, but Zy has always been her staunchest protector. Since he was contractually off-limits, the Southern, sassy single mom clung to her friendship with the daring demolitions expert who’d stolen her heart and focused on making the best life for her daughter.
But when the barriers between her and Zy are suddenly gone, she welcomes him into her bed, not realizing she’s giving him the power to destroy her. Or that the enemy is watching. Then the unthinkable happens, and Tessa is forced to make the most gut-wrenching choice of her life. Will their love survive the betrayal or will their future end before it’s even begun?
The second novel in the Wicked Lovers series from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Shayla Black
The boss’ innocent daughter. A forbidden favor he can’t refuse…
How can a virgin seeking happily-ever-after with a hot pop star who has a penchant for threesomes win her fantasy man? Kimber Edgington desperately needs a plan to convince Jesse McCall, who’s been her friend and secret crush since they spent a summer together as teenagers, that they are meant for each other. But all the tabloid stories about his sexual escapades make her feel oh-so inadequate.
Determined to prove she’s woman enough for Jesse, Kimber turns to bodyguard Deke Trenton for sexual education. Bold and brash, Deke warns Kimber that playing with him is playing with fire. But he can’t bear to imagine the innocent beauty in someone else’s arms. So Deke and his super-sexy friend, Luc, take Kimber under their wings and dangerously close to the edge of ecstasy. Though she’s saved herself for Jesse, Kimber soon learns, he’s not the man adept at stoking her aching, endless need. That’s Deke, and he can’t resist when Kimber begs for more–and more…
I’m Xavian Costa—financial genius, maverick, and heartbreaker. Since my dad ran out before I was born and my best friend slept with the woman I intended to marry, I don’t get close to people. It’s fine. That leaves me more time for what I’m best at: making money. But Parker, who poached my ex, is now a mega bestselling author with movie deals, and he’s modeled his number one villain after me. I want revenge. I’m just looking for the perfect vehicle.
Then the sexiest brunette I’ve ever seen literally falls at my feet. Best of all, she’s my former pal’s innocent little sister, all grown up, and she needs a fake fiancé. I’m happy to help—for a price.
We begin our whirlwind “engagement,” and I get to know Corinne, not as the gawky fourteen-year-old I remember, but as a beautiful woman. She’s snarky, sassy, and smart as hell. I admire the serious way she attacks life. I like her ambition to do something besides inherit. And I love the way she moans when I take her to bed. But soon, I’m falling for her and questioning my plans to stab Parker in the back by breaking his little sister’s heart. And when my dirty laundry gets aired for everyone—including Corinne—I have to prove that I’ll put her first. She has no idea I feel more than desire for her, but I’ll show her until she says yes for good.
Macen “Hammer” Hammerman should be enjoying the hard-fought bond he’s craved with Raine Kendall and his best friend, Liam O’Neill. But old ghosts haunt Hammer even as a new threat exhumes demons he thought long buried. Though he does his best to confront them, Raine still needs him since she’s coping with her recent trauma. Liam fights hard to keep their new family intact so they can share a brighter future…but it’s looking dim.
Then a shadowy figure, determined to right old wrongs, sets in motion a vengeful plot that threatens to tear the trio apart forever. With emotions running high and forces mounting against them, can the power of their love slay dangers and vanquish painful pasts for good so they can finally live happily ever after?
(Hold onto your hat! The conclusion to this dark, addicting saga bleeds heartbreak as it grips you by the throat mercilessly. Oh, and we’ll make you squirm some, too. But don’t worry, you’ll finish this book with a smile and a sigh.)
