In the latest tantalizing Rule Breakers novel from Jennifer Chance, an irresistible alpha male follows his ex into a deadly standoff—and reignites a heated affair.
For Erin Connelly, being a good girl isn’t such a bad thing. She’s working her dream job at a Boston art gallery and staying out of trouble, which is more than she can say for her deadbeat mom. Unfortunately, her mother’s latest misadventure lands her in the clutches of a Mexican drug lord. Now the only person who can save her is the one man Erin has no business asking for help: the sexy-as-sin army ranger who just so happens to be her former high school sweetheart.
Zander James is no gentleman—and no officer, either, thanks to Erin. Four years ago, she made a call that terminated his highest aspirations . . . and their relationship. He’s never forgiven her, but when he learns that Erin’s embarking on a half-baked rescue mission, he sure as hell can’t let her go alone. Now, with a treacherous enemy lying in wait, the electrifying tension between them may just be Zander’s undoing. Because while he may be able to keep Erin alive, he can’t promise to keep his hands off her.
You can do
this.
Erin’s heart
was already slamming against her ribcage when she reached Zander’s
brothers, murmuring her prepared words—“I’m sorry for your
loss. He was a good man.”—as she moved quickly past them. Even if
they remembered her, they had that glazed-over look that indicated
they’d already seen way too many people today, and she was simply
another face in the crowd. Not too surprising. The brothers had both
been in their late twenties when she’d known Zander, and deployed
for most of that time. His sister, Karen, recognized her immediately,
however. She was only six years older than Zander. It had seemed like
an impossible age difference four years ago, but now, not so much.
And as Karen turned to see Erin approach, her gaze flashed with open
curiosity. “Erin,” she said, nodding. Her manner seemed cool,
though, perfunctory, and Erin rushed into the exact explanation she’d
just convinced herself she didn’t need to give.
“I’m so
sorry, Karen,” she said, drawing on every ounce of serene,
professional distance she’d learned from putting her own work up to
scrutiny week after week in art school. “Your mom let me know about
the funeral. I—”
“No,
no—thank you for being here, of course.” Karen didn’t cut her
off as much as give her an out, but Erin shut up anyway. Wow,
this was maybe the dumbest idea ever. Zander
wasn’t going to help her. Zander probably never wanted to see her
again. No one in his family did. It was only what she deserved.
She wondered if
he ever thought about her anymore. If he still blamed her for
everything that had happened that last summer. Not that he shouldn’t,
of course. But still, Zander hadn’t known all that she’d been
dealing with back then, hadn’t known what his crazy, out-of-control
antics were costing her every time she saw him put himself in
danger—put others in danger. Back then, no one knew how much of a
train wreck her life really was.
She
still didn’t
want anyone to know.
