Once Forbidden, Twice Tempted, The Sterling Wives

Torn between loyalty and lust in a relationship so off-limits, it could cost her everything. A scorching romance by the author of The CEO Daddy Next Door.

Real estate agent Tara Sterling jumps at the chance to start fresh when she inherits part of her late ex-husband’s company. But claiming her rightful place at Sterling Enterprises means working side-by-side with CEO Grant Singleton, her ex’s best friend. Their long-simmering heat spells trouble as both vie for control of the business—and lose control of their thirst for each other . . .

“Once Forbidden, Twice Tempted is about healing, discovering one’s potential, having a second chance in both business and love, and finding friendship in unexpected ways. It’s an enjoyable story that will have readers looking forward to seeing what will happen next.” —Harlequin Junkie

“The Sterling Wives . . . are intelligent, driven, and in control of their own future. I’m looking forward to reading the next two books.” —Read Your Writes
