She has a job she hates and dreams she’s too afraid of pursuing. When she wins a writing competition and her long-term boyfriend persuades her to spend the prize money on air tickets to Hawaii, she’s convinced he’s about to propose at last. Instead, he betrays her and unable to change the tickets, Catherine goes to Hawaii alone to mend her broken heart.
Jake Donovan can’t hide from being in the spotlight. A Hollywood superstar and one of America’s most eligible bachelors, he’s in Hawaii taking some time to decompress after the filming of his latest hit show wraps. Surrounded by paradise he should feel like he has it all, but he’s feeling jaded and aware of a growing dissatisfaction with his world.
When a chance encounter brings their two lives together Catherine and Jake discover they have more in common than expected. Together, they escape their everyday lives and develop a fragile intimacy. But as reality closes in, it becomes clear that the fairy tale is not likely to survive in the real world and they begin to question whether their meeting was meant to inspire personal change or if it really was fated in the stars.
Diesel's Perseverance: Insurgents MC Romance
Chiah Wilder
$2.99
Two hearts scarred … Two souls intricately intertwined.
Diesel is an Insurgent through and through. His loyalties lie with the club and his kin. A stint in prison makes his freedom that much sweeter. His favorite pastimes are riding the backroads on his Harley, a whiskey neat, and a bevy of women at his beck and call.
Suddenly, his carefree life is turned upside down when his younger brother goes missing. The only lead he has is his brother’s girlfriend who corresponded with Diesel while he was in prison.
When Myla meets her boyfriend’s brother, she is taken aback by his rugged good looks, piercing blue eyes, and a raw masculinity that could make a grown woman weak at the knees. No matter that she’s a sucker for chiseled features, tattoos, and thick, wavy hair, she has to work with Diesel in locating his brother.
To say that the curvy, sexy woman with the soft green eyes is a major distraction and temptation is an understatement, but Diesel has to keep his lust in check in order to find his brother.
From the sordid underbelly of Denver and San Diego, Myla and Diesel have to work together to untangle the threads of corruption, betrayal, and lies. Lives are at stake, rival MCs threaten the stability of the Insurgents MC in San Diego, and the treachery goes much deeper than Diesel or his Colorado brotherhood could ever imagine.
The problem Diesel faces beside his growing attraction to Myla is that he feels like she’s holding something back.
As they spend more time together, the unanticipated bonds that develop challenge them to question everything they believe in. And as they maneuver through the labyrinth of deception, greed, lust, and power, can Diesel and Myla drop their guard and earn each other’s trust? Will their desire bring them together or tear them apart?
Suspense, heartache, and romance come together in a story about life’s unpredictable dark twists and turns.
The Insurgents MC series are standalone romance novels. This book describes the life and actions of a gritty outlaw motorcycle club. HEA. No cliffhangers.
