THE TROUBLE WITH LOVE
(A Cupcake Lovers Novel #2)
Beth
Ciotta
Blurb:
A CONSTANT CRAVING
Rocky Monroe’s bad luck is
legendary. So it stands to reason that during a quick trip to New York on
behalf of the Cupcake Lovers’ forthcoming book, she winds up in the arms of the
one man she never wants to see again. So what if he’s also the man she can’t
stop dreaming about? Mouth-watering Jayce Bello has always been Rocky’s biggest
mistake, and she’s not going to let history repeat itself … unless she gets a
new taste of his delicious kisses.
AN IRRESISTIBLE DESIRE
When Jayce Bello left Sugar Creek
ten years ago, it was the right thing to do—for him and for Rocky, his best
friend’s little sister. But one passionate night with gorgeous, reckless Rocky
is enough to prove that she’s the missing ingredient in his happiness. Now,
with scandalous secrets souring the sweetness of the Cupcake Lovers’ club,
Jayce needs to convince Rocky that their love is something to savor …

TEASER…
Rocky turned just as Jayce moved
into the small room, filling the space with a palatable intensity. As always
her heart fluttered and pounded at the sight of him. Tall, lean, and mean.
Physically perfect in her book. He wore his dark golden hair longer these days
and had grown a devilishly sexy goatee. Bad-boy to the bone, he was dressed in
neck-to-toe black. Baggy pullover shirt, cargo pants, a wool Pea Coat hanging
open, and a pair of rubber soled boots. He looked to-die-for handsome. He
looked . . . angry.
“You said it was nothing.”
She realized his gaze was fixed
on her shirt—stained with copious amounts of mostly dried blood. “It looks
worse than it is.” She gestured to her forehead, feigned nonchalance. “Just a
tiny cut, but it bled like a mother. It’s not that bad. Didn’t even need real
stitches. Just this butterfly strip.”
Jayce dragged a hand down his
face. “What else?”
Her body trembled when he moved
in for a keener inspection. Her temperature spiked. Her brain glitched.
Everything—her senses, her emotions—were magnified. She blamed her shaky state
on the mugging, the accident, the meds, but no amount of rationalizing, curbed
her intense reaction to the reassuring presence of this man. “Just some
bruises,” she croaked, swallowing hard when he smoothed messy curls from her
face. She’d had a crush on Jayce since she was a kid. She’d finally seduced him
on the night of her seventeenth birthday. It had been perfect . . . until the
next morning when he’d broken her heart. Every time she saw him, which was
hardly ever, a lifetime of memories and emotions battered her soul. Every time
she saw him, she fell a little harder instead of digging her way out. “I
shouldn’t have called.”
