December's Bad Boy Kingston

He paid the price for someone else’s mistake and lost the only thing that mattered.

Kingston

I’ve got the money, the mountain, and the silence I thought I wanted. I should be content. It’s more than I deserve. But no matter how I try to atone for my sins, I’m still an ex-con with too many secrets and too many regrets. Years ago, I walked away from everything: my name, my future, and the only woman I ever loved. I never wanted her to waste her life on a man like me. I thought I could stay hidden. I thought I could keep her safe. I thought the pain would fade. I was wrong.

He broke up with me and disappeared like none of it ever mattered. Now Kingston Raines is back. The reclusive billionaire who brought my small mountain town back to life is the same man I’ve spent years trying to forget. But I haven’t forgotten. Time hasn’t touched the way he shattered what we had. I’m done letting him hide behind guilt and scars while pretending we never existed. There’s a reason he still looks at me like I’m the only thing that ever mattered. He made the choice to leave. Now I’m choosing to make him remember everything we had, no matter how much it hurts both of us.

Welcome to Mustang Mountain, where rough roads lead to redemption. In this rugged mountain town, the Bad Boys of Mustang Mountain live by their own rules.

But when fierce, curvy women step into their lives, they find themselves facing a different kind of challenge—one that just might heal the hearts they thought were too far gone.
