JAMIE
Running into Morgan Patrick on one of my properties wasn't totally unexpected. It'd be just like the weasel to try and steal my business, same as his dad had always done to mine.
Except he's different now. Not the same guy who stole my internship and ruined my life.
He's still as handsome as ever. Has that same magnetic charisma.
Still makes my mind fixate on the almost-kiss we shared after a boardroom battle so long ago.
But then I realize he's not looking to poach my property, he's been living on it. His dad kicked him out for being gay. Took everything.
And suddenly the chemistry that's always sparked between us seems a lot less impossible. I don't care that he's down on his luck. Anyone would be, and I know he's capable of turning it around. He was never just a rival. He was a worthy rival.
Just like he could be a worthy partner.
Except Morgan's not the only one who isn't who he used to be. I've got secrets of my own to guard. Hidden scars both on the inside and out.
He's worried he's got nothing to offer, but I know better.
I'm the one who failed to live up to his potential. Who never will.
And I don't know what I'll do when he figures that out.
MORGAN
Jamie Roscoe is the last person I wanted to catch me at my lowest.
So of course he's the one to realize I've been squatting in an abandoned mountain home since my dad disowned me.
Except he's not the ass about it I figured he'd be. Doesn't take advantage of it the way he would've five years ago.
The way I would've.
He's as frustrating as ever. Still as sure of himself, smug, challenging... captivating.
And it isn't long before that ignites into the passion I always suspected (or hoped) could spark between us.
But I need to remember there's no happy ending here. He thinks he knows me, but I've still got more dirty little secrets to hide.
Like what I've been doing to make money.
The enemies after me.
And the fact I'm pregnant with his child...
This 50,000 word mpreg novel can be read as a standalone with HEA. But readers of His Dirty Secret will find some old favorites in here, to go with the sizzling sex scenes for readers over eighteen!
