CAN’T FORGET THE PAIN It took years for Adam to stop drowning his regrets in alcohol, and
running the local bar doesn’t make it any easier—especially not when everyone he knows gathers there
to discuss the shocking allegations that have shattered his hometown. When another murder rocks
sleepy Madison to its core, it becomes chillingly clear that even more vicious wounds are waiting to be
exposed.
WON’T RESIST THE PLEASURE
Nothing is sacred anymore, and no one is safe, least of all the mystery
woman who shows up in town out of the blue, looking like every fantasy Adam’s ever had. She may have
her own dangerous secrets, but she can’t ignore the urgent heat between them any more than he can.
As a killer’s quest for vengeance explodes into violence, Adam is tempted to lose himself in the delicious
promise of her body—until he realizes he’ll risk anything if she’ll give him her heart...in Sweeter
than Sin by Shiloh Walker.

“I think right now the one thing you need to do is sleep, darlin’.” He
nuzzled her neck, pressing his lips where it curved into her shoulder. “It’s late and you never look like
you sleep as well as you should. Tomorrow is soon enough for you to worry about how somebody else’s
tragedy has to ruin your life.”
“It’s already ruined mine.” Slowly, she turned around and lifted her
hands, curling them in the soft, worn material of his shirt, pressing her head against his chest. The smell
of him flooded her head. Warm man, something spicy—the soap he wore or aftershave—she liked it.
Rubbing her cheek against him, she murmured, “It’s ruined my life for years and I’m tired of it. I don’t
want to let it ruin my life anymore. That’s why I’m trying to figure out what to do next.”
“I already told you. Sleep.” He rubbed his lips against hers and then said
quietly, a thread of steel in his voice, “Tomorrow, we find answers. For now, though...”
He slid his hands down her back, cupped them around her hips. He
boosted her up and when she twined her legs around him, it was a sweet, sweet bliss. “Maybe the
answer to that is think about you. You’ve lived your life day by day, always thinking about keeping your
secrets. We need to figure out how you can reclaim your life, but you can’t do that in the dead of night.
So for now...think about you. What you need.”
He dipped his head and caught her lower lip between his, bit her
lightly.
“What do you need?”
A slow shudder wracked her body and he decided he liked it. As he
lifted his head to peer down into her eyes, she stared up at him, her eyes cloudy and heated. “Are you
suggesting that maybe the answer to this lies in getting naked?”
