Chained

Meet Ashley and Roman—complete opposites who can't hide their attraction—in this action-packed start of Ruthie Knox's serialized novel, Roman Holiday.

If Ashley Bowman were any more impetuous, she'd be dead. To save her childhood home in the Florida Keys from a heartless Miami developer with stony dark eyes and a killer body, she chains herself to a palm tree on the property—hours before a hurricane blows in. Roman Diaz needs to learn a little compassion, and Ashley means to teach it to him . . . even if she has to drag him all over the Eastern Seaboard to do it.

But first, in Book 1, Roman will have to get her off the palm tree—and such an endeavor will take some serious smooth talking.
