New club owner Alison “Maxie” Maxwell must use her feminine wiles to escape and elude tenacious bounty hunter, Austin Taggart, who’s tough, streetwise, and hot on her tail. Can she convince the sexy as sin, bounty hunter that she’s an innocent victim enduring a false arrest charge to save her fledgling club and her life savings? Spending days and nights handcuffed to the irresistible Austin makes her think of other uses for the cuffs—and that perhaps she’d like to bind herself to him for a life sentence.
Maxie’s dream is to own her own nightclub because she wants to be her own boss. All her life people have found her unconventional and some people even call her ditzy. But Maxie draws her own lines and plays by her own rules—loose and fast. These people can’t see the intelligence and creative energy the burns below the surface. She finds the 9-5 gig too conforming for her free-spirit attitudes and eccentric personality. With the help of her sister they sink their life savings into their nightclub, Fireworks. She’s determined that nothing is going to stop her from realizing her dream, not the law and certainly not some uptight, cynical bounty hunter with a one-track mind, one she itches to run circles around.
Austin Taggart knew the moment he saw Maxie’s picture, she would be trouble with a capital T. She looks just as delectable and just as ditzy as the skip who had duped him out of bringing her back—that’s right; he was a major sucker for blondes. He’d lost his bounty and she’d broken his heart. Better to stay away from gorgeous blondes who had a way of wrapping him around their little fingers. But, hey, a guy needs to eat and this week, she was his meal ticket.
