Siren...or Sinner?
With her long blond hair and flowy skirts, Rhys Gloverâs new neighbor is the sexiest woman heâs ever seen. He quickly learns sheâs also free-spirited and impulsiveâthe total opposite of his own personality. They should be like oil and water. Instead, the chemistry between them is like oxygen and flame.
But when Rhysâs next assignment for Cobalt & Dane security leads him right back to Wren, Rhys begins to walk a very fine line between ethics and desire. He believes he can trust Wren, but can he trust himself when heâs with her? And if she is keeping her own dangerous secrets, will he be able to walk away?
Holy hell, he couldnât seem to control himself around her...
âLose the T-shirt.â Wren flicked her hand in Rhysâs direction. âIt needs to come off.â
He hesitated for a moment, but the lust in her eyes urged him on. He peeled the soaked cotton up and over his head.
âThe jeans, too,â Wren said, keeping her face straight. âTheyâre soaked.â
Rhys glanced down and saw a small dark patch where the denim had absorbed the water. They were hardly soaked. âYou sure about that?â
âLet me help you.â She stepped forward and reached for the buckle on his belt.
Her fingertips grazed the bare skin of his stomach and he had to stifle a moan.
He might have started the fire, but she was fanning the flames...
Dear Reader,
Iâm thrilled to be continuing The Dangerous Bachelors Club series with Harlequin Blaze. This means there will be plenty more steamy stories with a dash of suspense coming your way.
If youâve been following this series, you may remember Rhys from A Dangerously Sexy Affair. In that book he plays a slightly antagonistic role and I wasnât initially planning to give him a book. But thatâs how it is with some charactersâthey get under your skin and beg to have their story told.
Who am I to say no to a character in need of a happy ending?
Rhys has a strong sense of what he believes in. Everything he does fits in with his personal motto, âtough but fair.â He lives via this rigid code, and everything he does is to the highest standard possible. Then the heroine comes along and makes his life messy in the best ways possible.
The relationship between Rhys and Wren is very much about finding balance and common ground. I love the idea of two people who seem so completely opposite coming together to see that theyâre actually perfectly suited to one another. Theyâre like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
I really hope you enjoy Wren and Rhysâs story. You can find out whatâs coming next by checking out my website, stefanie-london.com, or on Facebook at Facebook.com/StefanieLondonAuthor. I love chatting with readers, so feel free to drop me a line anytime.

To Dad,
for all the important lessons you taught me. For pushing me to be a good student. For fostering my creativity. And for sitting through all my ballet concerts. I know they were really long.

WREN LIVINGSTON COULD MULTITASK, there was no doubt about it. But carrying four bags of groceries while walking up a flight of stairs in a maxi skirt and trying to deflect sisterly guilt was pushing it. Even for her.
Add to the mix the fact that her new and insanely hot next-door neighbor was coming down the hallway toward her, and Wren was at her limit. How was one supposed to carry on a normal conversation with all those muscles staring back at you? Impossible.
âSis?â Debbie whined on the other end of the phone. âAre you even listening to me?â
âUh-huh.â Wren watched as the guy stopped in front of her, his pearly smile gleaming bright against warm brown skin. The black tail of his headphones curved up from an armband sitting snugly over his biceps.
Oh yeah, muscles... Had she mentioned them? He had a lot.
âCan I give you a hand with those bags?â he asked, pulling one bud from his ear.
He must have been about to go for a run, if the gray shorts and navy cotton tank were anything to go on. The fabric hugged a solid chest and caught her eye, drawing her attention up until she set her sights on a sharp jaw, broad nose and sparkling warm brown eyes.
