Deuces Wild Books

She's the one woman who can get his ball back in play... Deuces Wild, Book 1 For a while, MLB pitcher Chase "Deuce" Dixon used his bad-boy reputation as a smoke screen to cover up his elbow injury. But plummeting pitching stats don't lie, so now he's a free agent, spending the off-season in surgeons' offices, and considering a post-baseball career in security. His first night moonlighting as a nightclub bouncer, he's surprised that the singer on stage is his little sister's pure, sweet, spitfire of a best friend. And some drunk guy is getting way too personal. Summer Maitland doesn't need Chase strong-arming one of the few fans she's managed to accumulate during the career she keeps secret from her family. And despite her body's shimmering reaction to his touch, she certainly doesn't need a self-appointed bodyguard following her around. Chase has other ideas. If anyone's going to lay a hand on Summer, it's going to be him. Now if only he could keep his tongue out of her mouth long enough to keep her safe. And his hands to himself before he scares her off. Warning: Contains an ace hurler moonlighting as a bouncer moonlighting as a bodyguard, and an angel-voiced chanteuse who's up for anything he can throw at her-in and out of the bedroom. This one could make you rethink the definition of fastball.

To protect her, he'll have to cover the bases-first, second, third, and all the way home. Deuces Wild, Book 2 Cassidy Dixon isn't about to let her overprotective big brother know she has a stalker problem. But when she turns to his bodyguard agency partner, former MLB player Jax Wilder, she realizes she's made an even bigger mistake. Jax is even more overbearing, and soon he's getting too close for comfort-as in panty-melting close. Heat is the last thing she needs in her under-siege ice cream shop-until hot tempers explode into the best angry sex of her life. For once, the last thing on Jax's morning-after mind is escape. He's wanted Chase's little sister too long not to make a move when opportunity strikes. He knows the reasons why she lives a careful life, and he's ready to be the man she needs. If only she'd stop trying to get away... Certain Jax feels guilty for sampling forbidden, way-too-sheltered fruit, Cassidy sets out to prove that she's not as innocent and inexperienced as he thinks. She never expected him to rise to the challenge...or to be ready to risk everything to keep her safe. Warning: Contains an overworked bodyguard who is juggling a stalker and a woman desperate to unleash her wilder side. This hero knows how to ride...to the rescue and a motorcycle, among other things. Beware of curve balls and acts of spontaneous outdoor sex.

He's used to coming out on top...until desire brings him to his knees. Deuces Wild, Book 3 Sterling Vance is focused on two things: building his bodyguard agency and finding a nice, commitment-minded woman to date. The first one is easy-winning in business comes naturally. The second? Tricky, especially in the online dating world. At least when it comes to his friend's pregnant daughter, he's sure of himself. She got into trouble, so it makes perfect sense to move her into his place. Until unexpected attraction shoots them straight from platonic to "pass the lube". Proving she can take care of her baby on her own is Angelina McFee's top priority. At least it was, until Sterling gives her what he thinks she needs-then retreats behind his in-control façade. Curious to discover if he ever lets loose, she sets up a fake online profile...and gets an eyeful that ties her up in orgasmic knots. Yet one thing still scares the hell out of her: falling for him. But as the secret she's hiding pushes closer to the surface, and her determined ex closes in, it could already be too late... Warning: Watch out for dirty talk, dirtier pictures, and the occasional tie used as restraint. Handle with care-objects in the mirror are hotter than they look.

She's the last woman he should want...and the only one he can't forget. Sidelined after an elbow injury, former Major League Baseball pitcher Chase Dixon ends up working security at a club—and his first assignment? Crowd control for singer Summer Maitland’s biggest rock show yet. Summer, his little sister’s best friend. Summer, the woman he once kissed and hasn’t been able to stop thinking about since. Summer, who is younger, and off-limits, and oh yeah, now she’s his client too. Turns out she needs protection—and not just the kind in foil—and he’s putting together a bodyguard agency. He’s more than willing to make sure she’s safe. All night long. Even if the explosive heat flaring to life between them is anything but.

He just never expected one of his first clients to be his best friend’s little sister, Cassidy Dixon. The gorgeous, off-limits woman he grew up with and grew to have a baseball-sized…thing for is being stalked. Not that Cass ever would guess he has the hots for her. She’s too busy hating him. Cass came to Jax for help because she trusts him. She also can’t stand him for leaving town without keeping in touch. And now the dirty-talking, pompous jerk had the nerve to make her want to forget all their bad blood. At least long enough to get naked a time or seventeen. But Jax will do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Because this time, he’s pulling out all the stops to win Cass’s heart…if he can catch her stalker before it’s too late.

Then her daddy’s seemingly conservative friend offers to help with her stalker problem...by moving her into his home so he can guard her and her unborn baby. With his body. Only problem with that scenario? Angelina wants Sterling to use his body all right, but in a carnal fashion not suitable for his prim and proper lifestyle. Until she messages him incognito on a dating site and discovers Sterling can get down and dirty in ways she never imagined. Tie optional. But falling for him? That’s not optional at all. Sterling wants to build a family with Angelina and longs to be a father to her baby.
