Bound by the Past — Mackenzie McKade

Breaking the rules -- to heal a broken heart.

Ties That Bind Book 2

Years of neglect and disappointments have molded Jessica Evans into a strong, independent woman, determined to live life by her rules. The only place she's willing to relinquish control is in the bedroom. Even then, it's only on her terms.

A safety net of multiple partners keeps anyone from getting too close. That is, until one sexy cowboy throws a snag in that net, big time. Not only does Wade Peterson make her body burn, he's crossed the line. The damn man wants to marry her.

For Wade, sharing her with another man is almost more than he can bear. But if he pushes too hard, he could lose her for good -- something he refuses to allow to happen. Jessie's rejection isn't the end of it, not by a long shot. He's back, and he's hell-bent on seducing her right back into his wicked arms.

Then her past comes back to drop a bomb in her lap, and Wade sees a part of her he didn't know existed -- and another obstacle that could drive her to push away her only chance for love.
