Rolling in the Deep — Cathryn Cade

Desire as deep and dark as the sea…danger as close as a heartbeat.

Daniel Ho'omalu's intimidating physique, tribal tattoos and mane of black braids frighten most women before they get close enough to discover he likes to play rough. Pile on his perilous vocation as one of a secret society of island guardians, and he's painfully aware he may never find a mate.

One look at Daniel, and Claire Hunter knows she's found the man of her sensual dreams. Without hesitation she sinks her teeth into the challenge of landing the big Hawaiian in her bed. But while he clearly wants her, he won't bite back.

Daniel is certain the beautiful haole is too young and innocent to handle his dark sexual needs. Despite their determination to ignore each other, the island casts its spell, and in one explosive night, Daniel learns that Claire is more than a match for him in every way.

When Daniel must leave her side and dive to the depths of the sea to foil a gang of drug smugglers, Claire trusts that their powerful bond will bring her lover back safely to her arms. But his vow of honor to protect his people could be the one thing that breaks her heart.

Warning: Big, hot, tattooed Hawaiian hero who likes it rough -- in bed and on the beach. Going deep takes on a whole new meaning in this tropical heat wave.
