A full plate? More like an overflowing platter.

The last thing I have time for is the bad boy next door.

Even if he’s hot, sweaty, muscled, pierced, and makes sexy promises that keep me on edge.

Survival Mode is how I live. My ghost kitchen is the place to be for every work crew in the city, and I bust my butt from sunup to sun down, while rubbing every nickel and dime together to scrape by.

And it’s going fine. Until he shows up.

Kyle Harrington parks his truck right in the middle of my drive-thru line and acts like the trouble he’s causing is no big deal. Even tossing me a cocky smirk as he struts into my neighbor’s backyard to get to work on her construction project. If his annoying presence isn’t a one-time thing, he’ll have to learn that I’m not one to mess with.

Except no matter how many times I tell him I have zero interest in adding him to my too-busy schedule and flipping him off, he keeps coming back for more.

And he’s starting to break through my defenses, letting me see beyond his dirty innuendos, wicked invitations, and aw-shucks charm. There’s a lot more to Kyle than the rough and tumble exterior.

Do I have the guts to risk everything I’ve worked for to find out if he’s worth my precious time?

All it’ll take is one kiss…

Never Kiss The Bad Boy is a full-length romance with an HEA. It can be listened to as a standalone.
