Things are heating up in Paradise City. Lonnie Winston's looks can get him any man he wants, but his sights are set on one bear of a man named Santos Alverez. The guy is pushy, difficult, and makes Lonnie want to pulverize the brute. So why is Santos the only person who heats Lonnie's blood with a craving that is driving him insane? Santos thinks Lonnie is a loudmouth, pain in the ass. He is the only man who can push Santos's buttons, sending him into a snarly fit. He is the total opposite of what Santos likes in a man and he knows that it would never work between the two of them. They were more liable to kill each other than have a romantic relationship. But when someone close to Santos is killed, Lonnie proves just how much he cares when he goes after the Darlings in order to avenge Santos's pain and loss. Keeping the man at bay was becoming harder to do when Santos realizes he is falling hard for the tattoo artist who was quickly becoming his entire world.
