His to Claim Series by Christa Wick

The moment I meet the admittedly cute trespasser ready to attack me in my sister’s home just weeks after a tragic accident took her from us, I know the woman’s going to be trouble. She’s sexy as hell, distractingly curvy—and obviously keeping things from me and my family. Worse than that, she’s definitely afraid of something, and it’s driving me crazy she won’t tell me what. The thing is, I’m not just starting to feel protective of the walking flight risk, but damn possessive, too... moreThe moment I meet the admittedly cute trespasser ready to attack me in my sister’s home just weeks after a tragic accident took her from us, I know the woman’s going to be trouble. She’s sexy as hell, distractingly curvy—and obviously keeping things from me and my family. Worse than that, she’s definitely afraid of something, and it’s driving me crazy she won’t tell me what. The thing is, I’m not just starting to feel protective of the walking flight risk, but damn possessive, too. And the more I’m with her, the more I want to be the man that gets her past the fears she’s got bottled up. In both her head and her heart. The HIS TO CLAIM Series Book 1: Every Last Doubt (Adler & Sage) Book 2: Every Last Touch (Walker & Ashley) Book 3: Every Last Look (Barrett & Quinn) Book 4: Every Last Secret (Sutton & Maddy) Book 5: Every Last Reason (Emerson & Delia) Previously published as Adler James (c) 2017, completely rewritten in first person POV and revised throughout with a little more steam (note that this is my first slow-burn story series, steam-wise LOL, so it is a little tamer than my usual stuff -- but not too tame, as it is a Christa Wick book, after all *grin*), along with newly added content, and a different extended ending. less

As far as first impressions go, nearly dropping a tree onto a federal agent is admittedly not the greatest one I’ve ever made. As an opening gambit in pursuit of a feisty, deliciously curvy woman, it’s decidedly the worst. Doesn’t help matters that Miss Independence insists she doesn’t have time to get sidetracked with a personal life. Which she stubbornly maintains even while looking at me like she’s the lumberjack and I’m the tree she wants to climb... moreAs far as first impressions go, nearly dropping a tree onto a federal agent is admittedly not the greatest one I’ve ever made.

Doesn’t help matters that Miss Independence insists she doesn’t have time to get sidetracked with a personal life. Which she stubbornly maintains even while looking at me like she’s the lumberjack and I’m the tree she wants to climb. Good thing she’s on a mission to catch the bad guys—her one shot at greatness, she believes—and needs my help to do it. A ride is all she says she wants. And trust me, I’m damn sure it’s more than she’s ever asked any man for before. So, of course I’m going to give her a ride. …But I’m not promising to behave.

He’s my boss’s brother. Intense and stoic. Humble, disciplined ex-military. And built like a gorgeously rugged tank that somehow manages to make me feel dainty. I’ve been keeping a very big, very necessary secret from his entire family for years now. I’ve never liked having to do it. In fact, it’s why I’ve been avoiding him from practically the first day we met. Because strangely, I want to let him in. But being an FBI agent is the only thing I’ve ever felt was my true calling... moreHe’s my boss’s brother. Intense and stoic. Humble, disciplined ex-military. And built like a gorgeously rugged tank that somehow manages to make me feel dainty. I’ve been keeping a very big, very necessary secret from his entire family for years now. I’ve never liked having to do it. In fact, it’s why I’ve been avoiding him from practically the first day we met. Because strangely, I want to let him in. But being an FBI agent is the only thing I’ve ever felt was my true calling. Losing everything I’ve spent years building would just decimate me. Problem is, I don’t have a choice anymore. I’m desperate for the kind of help only he can provide. Like I’ve always told my sister, I’d have to be no-other-choice desperate for it to come to this. And I am.
