Entangled: Brazen
It’s been
thirteen years since Hope Moore left Devil’s Falls, land of sexy cowboys and
bad memories. Back for the weekend, she has no intention of seeing the man she
never got over…or the two of them getting down and dirty. It’s just a belated
goodbye, right? No harm, no foul.
Until six weeks later, when her pregnancy test comes back positive…
Daniel Rodriguez hasn’t forgiven himself for how things went down with Hope all those years ago. He knows she’s better off without him, but when she shows up on his doorstep, panicking because she’s pregnant with his baby, he can’t help seeing it as a chance to make up for the past.
Too bad Hope has no intention of going along with his plans.

Daniel Rodriguez hasn’t forgiven himself for how things went down with Hope all those years ago. He knows she’s better off without him, but when she shows up on his doorstep, panicking because she’s pregnant with his baby, he can’t help seeing it as a chance to make up for the past.
Too bad Hope has no intention of going along with his plans.
He turned to find Hope standing behind him. Again. “You sure move
quiet when you want to.” Especially for a woman with a bum leg. Not that he
could say as much without sounding like a jackass.
“You mean since I had my knee replaced.” Of course she knew what he
meant anyway. Apparently damn near reading his mind was one annoying habit she
hadn’t outgrown.
“I didn’t say that.”
“You didn’t have to.” She leveraged herself down next to him, the move
not quiet as smooth as it’d been when she was eighteen.
Daniel almost cursed. He had to stop doing that. Comparing her now to
how she was then wasn’t fair to either of them. It was another lifetime
completely, and thinking about it was just fucking depressing. “Hope—”
“Are you seeing anyone?”
“No.”
“Why not?”
He was so surprised by the question that he answered honestly, “Why
the fuck would I bother?”
“Oh, I don’t know, because you don’t want to be a creepy old man who
lives in the middle of nowhere and has to run off silly high school kids with
his shotgun because they tell ghost stories about him?”
He looked at her, half sure that she was the one who’d lost her damn
mind. “That’s not a thing.”
“It is most definitely a thing.” She leaned back on her hands and
stared at the sky. The most move arched her back and pressed her breasts
against the fancy tank top she wore. It was made of some kind of drapey fabric
that looked soft and shiny, and it highlighted the fact that he seriously
doubted she was wearing a bra. “You’re too young to just give up.”
“It’s not about giving up.” Though he didn’t expect Hope to understand
that. He’d checked up on her a few times since the accident, and every single
time he was amazed at the things she’d accomplished. Life had kicked her in the
teeth and she’d come back swinging. She’d taken two years off and then attended
the University of Texas and graduated with honors. She ran her own successful
consulting business to work with companies that wanted to set up scholarships
and nonprofits.
She shifted to look at
him. “It looks like giving up from where I’m sitting.”
New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Katee
Robert learned to tell her stories at her grandpa’s knee. She found romance
novels at age twelve and they changed her life. When not writing sexy
contemporary and romantic suspense, she spends her time playing imaginary games
with her children, driving her husband batty with what-if questions, and
planning for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.
