Second Chance For My Brother's Best Friend by Bella Brandon

My brother’s best friend is the man of my dreams,
And the one I shouldn’t want.

After fleeing my wedding and escaping to my hometown,
Guess who’s rescuing me from a would-be robber…

Julian Rodriguez…tattooed and gorgeous as ever.
With a cute little girl on his hip.

Despite the darkness in his gaze,
He still looks at me like I’m his to devour.

I can’t go there. Not again.

So I focus on my newest project:
Restoring the oldest building in our town.

Simple. Until I meet the contractor.
Julian. Freaking. Rodriguez.

You’d think constant arguing at work would make me hate him.
But the sexual tension rises with each passing day.

And when a vicious summer storm traps us inside,
We throw caution to the raging wind,
And ravish each other senseless.

I’m falling for Julian. I want a life with him and his daughter.
But a saboteur from his military past keeps destroying both our build site and the foundation between us.

But it’s too late to walk away now.
Because I just realized I’m late.
