Sean
Sparrow has one more job to pull: break into the bank, steal what he was
hired to take, and get out. He plans everything to the very last detail, sure
of success... until he sees Tessa.
Tessa

bearded man who walks into her life, offering her everything she's ever
wanted.

fast.

when the truth comes out, and Sean is fully revealed to her, will their instalove
be enough to hold them together?
Warning:
This book hero is over- the-top obsessed, totally head over heels in
love,
and desperate to make babies with the heroine ASAP. If you want a fun
read
with SUPER hot steam, Kindle-melting love, and a beard to rub between
thighs,
then this book is for you.

Chapter 1
*Sean*
“Oh,
fuck, just like that. Take it all the way to the back of your throat.”
The
slurping noise from the woman on her knees a few feet from me makes me clench
my jaw. The smell of cigars and sex coats the air, making me wish I didn’t have
to breathe in the stench.
“Oh,
right there. Swallow it all,” Nick mumbles as the slurping noise grows louder,
and he grunts his release.
Fucking
hell, this is why I like to work alone. Being in the back of a seedy strip club
after hours is making my skin crawl.
One
last job. I keep reminding myself why I’m here. I’m going to have to scrub my
body with sandpaper when I leave this place. I’ll need a scalding hot shower
and might even burn my clothes. God knows what’s happened in the very seat I’m
sitting in.
“You
want her next? Maybe she can pull that stick out of your ass.” Nick laughs at
his own joke as the woman pulls herself to her feet. She stumbles as she gets
up, almost falling over in her heels. Who knows what she’s on. From how rail
thin she is and the glazed look in her sunken eyes, I’m guessing something
heavy.
She
steps towards me like my silence is an invitation, but I stop her in her tracks
with a stare. I’d rather cut my fucking dick off than let her anywhere near it.
“Come
on, man. Loosen the fuck up,” Nick says as he adjusts himself and grabs a beer
from the table next to him.
“I’m
leaving in five.” I clip my words, making them hard. This meeting was supposed
to start twenty minutes ago, and I have shit to do. Okay, maybe not shit to do,
but I have somewhere else I want to be.
Stuck
in the back of a strip club, waiting for the boss to show up, is not my idea of
a good time. I took this job for one reason: a diversion. I need these guys,
and I’m on a time crunch. Time that is ticking away and being wasted at this
very moment. I normally like to work alone, but this job is paying me enough
that I can finally retire. I’ll be set for life if everything goes according to
plan. If being the operative word.
These
guys think we’re just robbing a bank, which we are, but I’m after something
else. A bank job isn’t enough to have me hanging up my gun, but my real reason
for breaking into the bank will give me the good life. There’s a very important
deposit box inside that vault, and that’s my moneymaker. That box is the real
reason I’ve hooked up with these clowns, and they’re the only way I can get
into it with the time I’ve got left.
No
one needs to know I was ever in there, which is why I need a robbery to go down.
I need chaos to help create a diversion while I get what I’m really after.
“You’ll
stay until Heavy gets here,” Nick says, like he can make me stay.
“You
forget who asked who to do this job.” I start to rise from my chair, like I don’t
give a shit about the job one way or another. They asked me for my help, but
only because I’d planted seeds for them to do so. I don’t want them to know how
much this job means to me. It’s better if they think I don’t give a shit.
Just
then, Heavy walks in.
“Out!”
he snaps, and the girls who have been roaming around scurry from the room.
Lazily,
I drop back down into my chair and wait. Heavy pours himself a drink before
making his way over to where Nick and I are sitting, a few more of his crew
coming in behind him and joining us.
Heavy
is anything but heavy. He’s barely five foot, balding, and wears the most
God-awful suits I’ve ever seen. The only reason he’s got himself this little
makeshift gang is because it used to be his father’s until he passed a few
years back.
What
was once a decent crew turned into a bunch of lazy fucks who clearly aren’t
making ends meet. Seeing as they all latched on to the stupid idea of robbing a
Federal bank, these idiots are dumber than I thought.
Or
maybe Heavy’s as crazy as I’ve heard he is, and he just doesn’t care. Crazy is
dangerous and makes for sloppy work. Crazy is hard to understand and not easy
to predict. I feel like I’ve bitten off more than I can chew with this crew,
and I’m starting to have second thoughts. My doubts are bubbling to the
surface, and I think maybe it’s time to call this whole operation off.
Right
until Heavy drops a stack of pictures and papers on to the table, making my
heart jump into my throat.
I
sit perfectly still, trying to appear completely unfazed by what I see. The
real reason I want to call off the job. I don’t make a single move to indicate
I know who the woman is. Her pictures are scattered across the table for all
these men to leer at, and I’m cool and calm on the outside. On the inside,
though, I’m losing my shit.
I’ve
always been known for my control, and for the first time in my life, I feel a
crack split in my facade. The mask I so carefully wear starts to slip, and I
have to rein myself in.
“Tessa
Morgan.” Heavy says her name like he bought himself a winning lottery ticket. I
should have seen this coming, and maybe I did but I ignored it. I don’t even
like her name on his lips. She’s too sweet and pure for a man like Heavy to
even say her name.
When
I knew what bank was my target weeks ago, I started digging up every piece of
information I could get my hands on. Tessa stood out to me right away but
probably not for the same reasons she stood out to Heavy.
I
hate her name on his lips; it makes my stomach clench. I’ve been watching her
for weeks already, and I told myself it’s because she’s a part of the job. That’s
a lie, because I haven’t watched anyone else at the bank. Just her. I want to
watch her now.
Each
day my little obsession for her seems to grow. Now I’m so deep there’s no
turning back. I have to have her, and I will, by any means necessary.
She’s
the reason I keep picking up my phone every ten minutes. I’ve been checking her
location. Checking on her.
“What
about her?” I manage to ask the question with as much indifference I can muster,
but my blood feels like it's ice, moving through my veins as everyone in the
room stares down at the pictures of her. She looks like a fucking angel. My
angel. That’s what I thought the first time I’d laid eyes on her, and I still
think it every time I see her.
Her
reddish-brown hair falls in waves around her face down to the middle of her
back. She has honey-colored eyes like I’ve never seen before. I didn’t even
know eyes could look like liquid gold. When I first saw her, I was sure they
were contacts. After I planted the camera in her apartment, I learned it was
her true color. Those gorgeous eyes hypnotize me.
She’s
curvy, almost plump, and her short stature makes her seem compact. It’s like I
could carry her soft little body around with me, and she’d mold against me
perfectly. But what drives me wild about her are the little freckles that
pepper her cheeks and her little button nose. It makes her look sexy and
innocent, all rolled into this fucking package I can’t get off my mind.
It
started with how she looked, but as the days went on, the more I watched her,
it became so much more. She truly was a sweet little angel. Not a mean bone in
her body. Always has a smile for everyone, but a lot of the time the smile
doesn't reach her eyes. I want to make that smile reach her eyes. Have it
directed at me.
Now
all these fucks are standing around, staring at her, and I’m trying not to lose
my shit.
I
know what Heavy’s going to suggest, because I’d thought it myself.
“We’re
going to use her to glean information on the bank and get our hands on her
access keys. She looks easy enough to seduce.”
“I’m
not into chubby chasing,” Nick says, picking up one of the pictures of my
angel. I feel my fingers twitch, wanting to grab the blade at my side and slam
it through his hand.
“You’ll
do what you’re told,” Heavy reminds him, but no way could Nick seduce her. He
isn’t charming enough. She’d run from his sleazy advances the first time he
tried to come on to her. He’s used to paying women to fuck him.
Heavy’s
eyes are on me, but I don’t want to seem eager. If I try to jump in, the
situation could blow up in my face and ruin everything.
“Sparrow
should do it. The ladies always seem to be after him.” I have no clue what
Heavy means by that. Maybe it’s because the whores in his club are always
trying to latch on to me, but that’s probably because I don’t look like I’d
beat the shit out of them. Like his whole fucking crew does.
“I’m
here to make sure the cops don’t show up. I’m cutting the lines and hacking the
systems. Those are my skills sets,” I remind him, as if I want no business
seducing the girl. I’ll be the one to do it if it’s something he’s going to
push. “We don’t need her. I got you the floor plans, schedules, and I can take
their system down easy. We don’t need to drag a woman into this, one who can
end up identifying us when it’s all finished.”
“Trust me, she won’t be identifying anyone when we’re
done with her.” Heavy’s intent is clear. But that’s something I would never
allow to happen. “I just want to make sure everyone is on the same page. Let’s
not forget she has keys, too. Access to the main vault.”
“And
what if shit goes wrong? She could ID me if she slips through our fingers,” I
try again, going at him from another angle.
“Why
do you care? I hear this is your last job anyways.”
I
regret giving him that piece of information, but I had to give him something. I
was known for working alone, doing random jobs for crews. Normally, when I did
pick up a job with another crew, I still did those jobs alone. Got them what
they needed, then stepped out. I had to have a reason why this time I was
willing to go in with a whole group, and I used this being my final score as
that reason. I told Heavy I wanted to walk away with a lot of money so I could
be done. But I have a feeling with all this talk about the girl not walking
away and wanting me to get close to her that Heavy doesn’t plan on me walking
away either.
