Country, the first standalone romance in the all-new steamy, gritty and fast paced Diamond MC Series from bestselling author Lila Rose is available now!
I had her and loved the taste of her. But she’s too young, too sweet and good. I’ll keep her safe, and I want her happy. Even if my own heart tells me I’m a fool for not making her mine.
Our few nights were electric. She left her mark and burned her goodness into my heart.
There’s no room left for anyone else, only her. I can’t chase her. I have to let her go. Sure, she’s a club girl and I could have her under me whenever I want, but I can’t do that to her. I refuse to pull her any deeper into the Diamond MC.
When that decision is taken out of my hands and she’s dragged into the darkness, all I see is rage and bloodshed.
I’ll make them pay. Every single one of them who thought they could steal her away, take her from me.
She’s everything.
And once I have her back, I’ll make sure I never let go.
She’s light and goodness.
Maybe she’s too good for me, but maybe she’s just what I need to balance my world.

Title: Model Behavior
Author: Tricia Lynne
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Hayes Walker is screwed.
His body is giving out, his family is bleeding him dry, and he never prepared for life after football. When the Dallas Bulldogs offer him a coaching position instead of a returning roster spot, only two things keep him going—staying fit in case another football team picks him up, and spending time with a gray-faced Boxer at the Unlovabulls Dog Rescue.
Olive Russo is a woman who can walk through a kennel in a white pantsuit without getting a spot on her. The always organized PR pro will need her cool control when she’s forced to plan a fundraising gala for the Unlovabulls with the college boyfriend who turned her inside out. A decade ago, Hayes Walker broke her heart and sent Olive into a spiral of bad decisions that she’d rather her clients not know about. Now she is determined to keep the completely lickable Hayes off her to-do list—even if their chemistry is stronger than ever.
umping Olive was the worst decision Hayes ever made. When the amazing girl walks back into his life a full-fledged woman, he makes a play for her heart. But when Olive’s secrets are exposed and the NFL knocks on Hayes’s door, they’ll both need to leave their past where it belongs if they’re going to make it work the second time around.
“Pulling the curtain to the
side, I watched as he fired a tennis ball the length of the room. “I thought
you played defense. That looked like a quarterback threw it.”
“Huh, played being the operative
word. And no, that didn’t look like a quarterback threw it, but you always were
kind.”
Sadie dropped the ball at his
feet. “Do you miss it?”
He picked it up and threw it
again. “Playing? Yes. What playing did to my body? Hell, no.”
I watched after Sadie as I stood
next to Hayes. “I bet she’d have made a great Frisbee dog, maybe even fly ball,
when she was younger.”
“They always say shit like that
about us has-beens, don’t they, girl? Drop it.” He scratched her head, and
Sadie spit out the ball. “If only we were younger, if only our knees still had
all their cartilage. If only time didn’t march on and forget about us.” He
stared at the ball in his hands with a distance in his gaze. Sadie sat
patiently, looking up at the man she so obviously loved with soft brown eyes
and a face going white with age. These two needed each other.
Gently, I pulled the ball from
Hayes’s hand and gave Sadie a scratch. Then I launched it across the room. She
looked after it but didn’t go. “Oh, Hayes. This little girl is sweet on you.”
That made the laugh lines appear
around his eyes. “Go get it, sweetheart.”
Finally, she darted out after it.
“I’m sorry about football. I
just want you to know that you are so much more than the game. I’ve always
thought that.” Today couldn’t have been easy on him, at an event with players
who used to be his teammates, but now he coached them.
Hayes nodded. “I mean, yeah. I’m
a football player. I’ll always be a football player. But it’s the way it got
taken away from me, and the reason I even played so long in the first place.”
He shook his head. “I loved playing. I wanted to play solely because I loved
it, and I wanted to leave on my terms. That didn’t happen. Sometimes I’m a
little jealous of Brody for that.”
Sadie brought the ball back to
me, but I noticed her starting to limp a little on her right hind leg. “All
done, sweetheart.” Breathing heavy, her black coat shined in the light as she
circled and lay down next to Hayes’s leg. I studied his face. The lines etched
into his forehead. The aching set of his jaw. This man was broken, but weren’t
we all a little damaged?
Creating second chances for
people was part of my job…”

I need a date to my brother’s wedding in six weeks, and Charlie Walgrove owns a tux. Billionaires are like that.
He’s also my sister’s boss, and I agree to let her set me up with the awkward genius, who apparently has even less luck in the dating game than a struggling artist, aka me.
We’re total opposites, but the date goes okay. We agree to be friends, the kind who won’t become lovers.
Famous last words.
On a series of “friend dates” involving bar snacks, acrylic paint and hedgehogs, I discover that Charlie is nothing like what I expected. Under his hoodie and glasses, he’s handsome and down-to-earth, stuck in a job he hates and afraid to disappoint people by walking away. His heart is as gorgeous as his hidden face.
I’ve always felt like the flaky sister in my family, but Charlie sees me as the artist I want to be. As our friendship deepens, so do my feelings for him. Maybe I’m even falling in love.
But gambling with my heart feels dangerous when all my relationships end in failure–especially if he’s only looking for a friend.
Is it only princesses that get a Happy Ever After? Or is there hope for a hot mess like me?
