Two people, an ocean,
a big fish and a small monkey. She doesn't trust herself and he can't remember
when he trusted anyone.
(Lara) A spoiled man-whore was a bad idea even for a girl who
majored in bad ideas. It was the monkey's fault I didn't take my own advice.
Mrs. Dalloway caught me way off guard. She stripped him down to his bare
humanity and wouldn't let me throw a blanket over that naked soul. Everything
he did was contradicted by all that he was. The little white-faced princess on
his shoulder never missed a chance to point that out. Mrs. D was a shameless
charmer but honest to her bones. She forced me to look at the truth of him
until the reality of Morgan had me hooked.
(Morgan) I agreed too quickly. I thought she'd be a punctured,
tatted up, street-smart bitch with the kind of balls it took to hang in a major
league pressure cooker of a go-to South Beach restaurant. The only thing I
guessed right about was the 'nads. She had 'em but the package was all wrong.
There were waves where I expected spikes, soft where I was looking for hard.
Then she schooled me about dear dad's precious art collection and I realized
street wasn't her only kind of smart. Mrs. D--who knows every wart on my
blemished spirit--surprised me with a rare nod of approval. It's usually a good
idea to listen when your best friend has something to say. Even if your best
bud is a monkey.
Hooked (The Hunt) is a new adult romance that unfolds
in a trilogy, each featuring a high energy adventure that escalates Lara and
Morgan's relationship with physical and emotional challenges. It is intended
for mature readers due to explicit content and language.
