Nixie Rowland is having a bad
day. Rushing home to drown her sorrows in ice cream and reality television, she
decides to take a shortcut to the subway where things take a turn for the
worst. But Nixie’s bad luck doesn’t end there—the white knight who comes to her
rescue is none other than the Dark Knight of Wall Street, a cocky Manhattan
mogul whose ego barely fits inside his penthouse. To her horror, Nixie
discovers the sizzling attraction between them is off the charts, and rising
fast. Spending the night in his bed does nothing to lower the heat… And
everything to set her heart on fire.
Nash Knight doesn’t have room in
his life, or his heart, for anything beyond one-night stands or casual flings.
And he certainly doesn’t make a habit of rescuing damsels in distress. Except
that this particular damsel slips beneath his armor, the vulnerability she
covers with a false show of bravado hitting him somewhere deep. Nixie is
everything he never wanted… And exactly what he needs.
With Nixie on the run from a controlling ex, and Nash trying to
salvage a business deal at risk because his conquests in the bedroom are
overshadowing his wins in the boardroom, there’s one simple solution for them
both: a marriage in name only. But when lust becomes love, will their untamed
emotions be a deal breaker?

BREAKER Excerpts

Tara Leigh
“Can I have my clothes
now?” My throat was so tight, each word emerged strangled.
“No.”
No? I’d swallowed my pride
to sound appreciative, practically begging for my clothes back, and he had the
gall to say no? Who the hell did this guy think he was?
Beneath the covers, an
indignant shiver trembled through me. I couldn’t see much in the dark room, but
I assumed he was the same man who’d come running into the alley last night. The
memory of him was permanently ingrained in my brain. Tall, at least a foot
taller than me, with close cropped dark hair and olive skin. Pale green eyes
that sat above high cheekbones, fringed by long eyelashes that didn’t soften
his hard edges one bit. “Listen, if you’re expecting some kind of open-armed,
grateful—”
“From you?” He made a
noise that sounded like a snort. “I’m getting the feeling you don’t do
grateful.”
I winced, taken aback by
the blunt honesty of his observation. “I never asked you to come running into
the alley after me.”
“So you’re not glad I
did?”
With my track record, of
course I wouldn’t wind up with a run-of-the-mill good samaritan. No, instead I
fell into the hands of a cocky jerk with extra time on his hands, looking for
an appreciative female to stroke his ego. “How do you know I wouldn’t have been
just fine on my own?”
“You’re right. I don’t.”
His swift capitulation surprised me, and I sagged back against the pillow.
“Next time you have your head in the clouds and don’t notice two thugs hot on
your tail, looking to rob or rape you, probably both, I’ll let you take your
chances.”
“Fine. All hail the
conquering hero. Happy now?”
“Are you admitting that
you needed my help?”
So damned smug. “Listen,
we can debate my self-defense capabilities all day—”
“Night. It’s the middle
of the night.”
“Whatever. All night,
all day. There’s no difference. What I’m trying to say—”
The arrogant man with a
white knight complex interrupted me again. “Actually, there is a difference.
The difference is—it’s nighttime, and you’re in my bed getting all hot and
bothered about nonsense. Either go to sleep, or we might as well channel your
energy into something more productive.”
I snapped my sagging jaw
shut, feeling a rush of heat between my thighs that rivaled my burning knife
wound. Jeez, Nixie. Get a grip. This guy is clearly an asshole and you are
not an asshole magnet.
Not anymore.
His low chuckle sent the
hair at the back of my neck standing on end. “So that’s what it takes, huh? You
know, most women would consider sex with me to be more of a bonus than a
threat.”
Jesus, this guy had
quite a set of balls on him. “Don’t flatter yourself, big shot. You could have
called nine-one-one. Or dropped me off at the nearest hospital. I’m in your bed
because you brought me here. And now I want to leave.”
