I’m stepping off a nine hour flight when it happens.
A white van. A dark hood. Every woman’s worst nightmare.

DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH is a new dark romance from New York Times bestselling author Skye Warren. Finding yourself has never been so dangerous…
Diamond in the Rough (The Diamond Trilogy Book 1) by Skye Warren– Priced at $.99 for a limited time.
From a USA Todaybestselling author comes a sexy romance: Football star Lathan pretendsto be engaged to a woman — until his sizzling chemistry with Pax forceshim to admit who he really desires…
My mom is dying. The cancer is eating away at her body a little more each day, and the worst part is I know she’s so tired of fighting. She’s starting to surrender to the sickness.
That’s why I stupidly blurted out at Thanksgiving that I had met a woman and was engaged. The truth is, there’s no woman in my life and never has been. I just wanted to give my mother something to live for, a few celebrations, an extravagant wedding, the possibility of grandchildren…
Now I just need to find a nice girl to pretend to be my fiancée and walk down the aisle with me in a matter of weeks.
Actually, that may be a piece of cake compared to trying to stay away from the one person who has managed to ignite something deep inside of me for the first time in my life. Something I can’t ignore or forget no matter how hard I try.
***This is a sweet and sexy standalone M/M romance.***

PROPERLY IMPROPER…AND DARING TO LOVE…
Juliana St. John was raised to be very proper. After a long engagement, her wedding day dawns—only for Juliana to find herself jilted at the altar.
Fleeing the mocking crowd, she stumbles upon Elliot McBride, the tall, passionate Scot who was her first love. His teasing manner gives her an idea, and she asks Elliot to save her from an uncertain future—by marrying her…
After escaping brutal imprisonment, Elliot has returned to Scotland a vastly wealthy yet tormented man. Now Juliana has her hands full restoring his half-ruined manor in the Scottish Highlands and trying to repair the broken heart of the man some call irredeemably mad. Though beautiful and spirited, Juliana wonders if that will be enough to win a second chance at love.
The Seduction of Elliot McBride (Mackenzies Series Book 5) by Jennifer Ashley- Priced at $1.99 for a limited time.
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH is the first book in a trilogy and it does end on a cliffhanger. Also, I think it helps if you’ve read the previous books in the North Security series to help understand the hero and his relationship to his family. Like much of Warren’s work (which I love, but ymmv), DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH is quite dark, somewhat transgressive, and features both a hero and a villain who are multi-shaded on the good/bad scale.
I’m pretty sure my first Skye Warren was Wanderlust, so I’m used to how dark her protagonists and storylines are. I clicked on this one, but now I’m thinking I might have to go back and read the series you mentioned first.
I DNF’ed Delay of Game a few chapters in. Quote from one of the main characters: “I don’t care for the weak, feminine bottoms that wear skinny jeans and weigh a buck twenty, if that. If I wanted a girl, I wouldn’t be gay, would I?” Save your money, folks. It’s not worth the ninety-nine cents.
YIKES. Hard pass.
