They say everyone deserves a second chance… but I won’t risk my heart again. Not even for Hayden Cole, the only boy who ever broken mine.

Hayden Cole was my brother’s best friend and the boy from the wrong side of the tracks. Broken smiles, dark hair, and eyes that had seen far too much for his age.

We spent a summer together in secret. In the darkness, in the silence, our hearts spoke the same language. Until he left without a word and tore mine right out of my chest.

Ten years later he returns from the Navy, and he’s demanding a second chance. He’s every inch the rogue I remember—crooked smiles and dark eyes—but now he’s a man grown. Tall and broad and persistent.

I see him everywhere I turn in our small town. Spending time with my brothers, repairing my broken fence, and looking at me with eyes that speak of our past.

But I’m going to stay far away this time.
Even if Hayden makes it hard to remember exactly why…


Dark Eyed Devil was previously published under the title "Rogue." The story in Dark Eyed Devil is the same. It is book one in the standalone series Brothers of Paradise.

The golden angel who swooped in to save me from a nightmare first date turns out to be a billionaire vulture circling the company I work for.

Carter Kingsley: My savior and ruthless corporate raider hell bent on destroying the newspaper I love. Oh, and my new boss.

His first order of business? Cut half the staff. I should hate him. Easy, right?

Wrong.

I met him two weeks ago, when he saved me from the most awkward first date of my life. I was looking for a way out when he strolled up in a ten-thousand dollar suit with a winning smile, and told a white lie that turned the date from hell into heavenly bliss.

I left with his number in my phone, and spent the next two weeks staying up late to text him. He's charming. Funny. Sincere.

Completely unlike the ruthless villain who comes in and carves us up.

My first order of business is to interview the new boss. But who is sitting on the other side of the desk? The man who saved and charmed me, or the one who’s threatening everything I hold dear?

Carter insists that we can still be friends, but I know that the whole situation is a ticking time bomb.
