Lawless in Leather - Paperback

by Melanie Scott (Author)

She might not know baseball, but she knows trouble when she sees it

Raina Easton has sworn off bad boys. These days she's focused on keeping her burlesque club afloat, which is why she's taken a job coaching the New York Saints new dance squad, the Fallen Angels. The cash from that gig will help her buy her club outright and secure her future. But then she meets tall, dark, and grumpy, Malachi Coulter, part-owner of the Saints, and now their head of security. He's got bad idea written all over him and even though he's ridiculously attractive, Raina is determined to keep her head.

He won't let anyone steal his heart, but her moves are hard to resist

These days Malachi is playing the smart game. Manage the risks, keep everyone safe, and don't let anyone in. His life is just how he likes it-under control. But when Raina bounces into the Saints, all slinky moves, smart mouth, and smoking body, he's not sure what's hit him. She's exactly the kind of woman he doesn't need. She's playing at being sensible, but he knows she has a wild streak buried deep. One that matches his own. He knows he shouldn't let her in, but she's all he can think about. But if he thinks she's worth risking it all for, he's going to have to break all the rules to win her heart.
