Lexi McKenna nursed a crush on James Mallory since forever, but he was the bad boy who never looked her way, except to protect her. Until the night she turned eighteen, and he noticed her. But just when things were getting interesting James called a halt, crushing her teenage heart. Seven years later she's finally in a position to make him finish what he started. And this time she's not taking no for an answer.

As a professional escort, James Mallory has learned to separate sex from emotion. He's made himself into a sophisticated lover adept at pleasing his clients, but dark memories haunt him and bad blood still flows in his veins. So while Lexi seems determined to tempt him, there is absolutely no way he intends on dragging her down to his level.
But Lexi has other ideas, and faced with her considerable seduction skills, just how long can James hold out?
