whisper can ruin a life. After seeing the darker side of fame, he's desperate
to retreat and find his voice again.
Two people from opposite worlds, brought together by a
connection neither expected.
But the forces they’re both running from still lurk in the
shadows…

ground.

Julia lives in Maryland with her three crazy, beautiful kids
and her patient husband who she’s slowly converting to a romance reader, one
book at a time.
Hope didn’t see him for long, though
she’d gotten an eyeful. Ari was thick with muscles, not an ounce of
fat. Oh my god, everywhere, and she did mean everywhere! She could
hardly look away. Hope couldn’t help but squeal when he picked her
up. Her legs against his arms and chest sent a shiver through her.
His heat made Hope feel like she was burning up. She shuddered.
“Put me down. I’m not going in the
lake.”
“Oh yes you are. Since you won’t
undress and your clothes need it anyway, in you go.”
With that, Hope flew through the air,
landing with a splash in the lake. She sputtered and came up,
wheeling her arms to get above water.
“You jerk!” Oh, she saw red. “How
dare you!”
Ari stood in the water to his ankles
laughing.
He had tossed her a good six feet away
and let her sink like a stone. He didn’t even know if she could
swim! “What if I couldn’t swim, huh? What would you do then?”
Hope was so mad she splashed him.
Ari just laughed.
She heard Crag snickering somewhere
behind her. She turned and splashed at him too.
“I would have saved you. If you’d
quit splashing and stand up, you’ll see you could stand.” Ari
frowned suddenly. “Oh no. You can’t stand with your leg.” He
started toward her and Hope pushed deeper into the water.
“Leave me be.”
Excerpt #2:
“Are you okay?” Ari whispered above
her.
Hope nodded her head. Ari was warm
against her, contrasting with the cold of the water. Shifting, Hope
realized her leg was beginning to throb. “My leg is starting to
hurt. I think I need to sit down.”
Ari swung Hope up into his arms and
strode out of the water. They neared the fire only to see Crag lying
to one side, a snore rising from him.
“I forgot about your brother. You
don’t think he saw, do you?” Hope buried her head in Ari’s
neck. “You can’t do that again.”
Ari’s arms tightened around her.
“Ari, when are you going to take me
home?”
Ari settled down on top of a rock, still
holding Hope. “Not tonight.” He attempted to pull Hope’s shirt
off.
Hope fought to keep it on.
He frowned. “It’s wet. You can’t
sleep in it.”
“I can’t sleep naked next to you.”
She glanced at Crag. “Not with the two of you here.”
“Well, you can’t sleep with it wet
either.” They were playing tug of war with her shirt, but Hope was
determined to keep it on. “Fine, how about I let you wear my shirt.
Will that work?”
Excerpt #3:
Hope heard a groan and something
plopped down above her. Over the edge of the rock, eight long, sharp
talons appeared. Hope had never seen anything that big; whatever it
was settled down with a sigh. The movements ceased, but Hope could
still hear something moving around. It looked like whatever was above
her was not alone.
She just hoped that whatever it was
didn’t look under the rock. She heard more movement and more
scrambling on another rock. Hope slowly turned to look toward it,
hoping that it didn’t see her. When it settled, Hope gasped and
froze. It was the same kind of monster that had stolen her away! Its
head whipped towards her sound, peering toward her.
Hope wasn’t sure it could see her
where she was at. She hoped she was in enough of a shadow that if she
didn’t move, it would lose interest. The creature craned its head
trying to see where she was at but it didn’t move, just settled
down on the rock. Rumbles and growls came from it.
When it didn’t move, Hope exhaled
slowly.
A head craned over the rock, looking
upside down at her.
She screamed.
Noises emerged from its snout.
Hope whimpered.
Smoke curled from
its nostrils. Never had she seen a creature like this.
Hope pressed against the rock as far
from it as she could get. It sniffed her, eyes peering at her in what
looked like curiosity.

Didn’t you get the hint yet? I’m not a nice guy. I’m the man you need to fear. Hell, I sell fear. We call it protection, but in the end? Fear is what they want in return for their payment. I’m Grigory ‘Ford’ Dudnik, head of The Dudnik Circle. The Russian Mob, in case you need a label. We take care of threats, gangs, enemy or distasteful situations our clients may find themselves in. We have an obligation to do what’s wrong on a regular basis but even within the fine lines of murder and just plain old handling shit, we’ve got honor.
If that’s not enough…I’ve managed to tangle myself up with the head of another gang. Tarzan. Type of person? Hanged a man at a construction site, climbed the rope and stomped on the guy’s neck while swinging on the rope. Seems like Tarzan wanted to kill him twice.
My past and future seem to collide as we are contracted to handle a gang connected with snuff films. Loose ends are now left dangling; I either need to grab hold of the ropes and string knots or cut ties. Or feel the burn of the rope around my throat, leaving no room for revenge.
**This intense, standalone romance is not for the faint of heart. You've been warned.**
Ford can be read as a standalone. The Dudnik Circle “world” is complete. All books can be read as a complete standalone story featuring a new couple. Order of release for a greater reading experience:
