Book Description:
Biker Dave "Dodge" Roth
has never cared about his bad luck with women. He has other things to worry
about—paying off debt his ex accumulated and most importantly, raising his
three-year-old son, Cullen. When a new neighbor moves in, his boy makes it
impossible to ignore her. Hard to miss, she's beautiful, smart, sexy, perfect.
After her last failed
relationship, kindergarten teacher Alexa "Lex" Millen has decided to
do without men. She's bought her first home in a small town in California and
remodeled it to her liking. Naturally, she's managed to move across the street
from the world's biggest jerk. His son's adorable, but he won't mind his own
business. If only her engines didn't rev every time he came around.
Excerpt

“I can’t believe
you did that. I can’t believe you’re doing this.”
He spared a
glance at her. She sat stiffly with her bag on her lap staring daggers straight
ahead. Her mouth in a pout, and her arms crossed over her chest. Maybe she had
reason to be pissed. He hadn’t been smooth. It wasn’t his thing, but she was
smart and should’ve figured he’d done it for her own good. “I fuckin’ saved
you. The least you could do is thank me.”
She turned
toward him. “Saved me? From what?”
“From
my brothers.”
“You’re
what?”
He came to a
stop at a red light and shifted her
way. “My
brothers. The club.”
Eyes widening,
she stilled. In a small voice, she asked, “What were they going to do to me?”
“Hit on you.”
She dropped her
gaze from his and exhaled.
What had she
thought they’d do to her besides hit
on her? The club
was clean. His brothers were rowdy, and the ones who weren’t attached were
always looking for women to fuck, but that was as far as it went.
She tilted her
head to the side. “Why would—
Shit. She’d just
insulted him and hadn’t realized it. Something else she didn’t understand—how
fucking perfect she was. Fucked, so fucked. A woman like her should know. Every
man she’d dated should’ve made it clear. It made him think her man wasn’t just
a douche but an idiot who took her for granted.
His eyes
hardened. “You gotta mirror, babe?”
She lifted a
brow. “Why do you need a mirror?”
She was
intelligent, a teacher for fuck sakes, and half the time she was home, she sat
on her beat-up porch swing reading. But he now knew she could be dense.
Hilarious, he
had to fight not to laugh. She wouldn’t find it funny. In fact, he’d bet it’d
piss her off, and she wasn’t pleased with him to begin with.
“Lex, you gotta
mirror at home?”
Her eyes
narrowed. “Why are you changing the subject?”
He looked
forward. The light turned green, so he lifted his foot from the brake and hit
the gas. “Answer the fuckin’ question.”
“Don’t curse at
me.”
Shaking his
head, he released a loaded breath. “Answer the question, please.”
“Yes, I have a
mirror at home. Now, would you like to know how many?” Sarcasm dripped her
tone. Damn, she was funny, fucking hysterical. He’d never met a woman who made
him laugh, another
reason she was
perfect.
This time, he
couldn’t hold back a chuckle. “Naw, I want to know if you look in those
mirrors, ever?”
“Of course. How
do you think I apply makeup?”
He spared a
glance at her. “Then I don’t have to
explain why I
needed to save you from my brothers, right?”
Her eyes
widened. Then her brows drew together. “You’re saying they find me attractive?”
Bingo.
Coming to
another red light, he stopped and looked at her. “I’m saying a man would have
to be blind and stupid not to find you attractive.”
