Excerpt: Meet Tom and Lyla!
Wearing only a shirt of Tom’s, which I retrieved from his bedroom closet, I tread down the stairs, my toes sinking into the soft carpet.
Looking around as I walk, I take his house in. Not something I got the chance to do last night. I had other things on my mind then … mainly, Tom.
In the light of day, this house is surprising me. It’s all soft furnishings, beautiful paintings hanging on walls, plush carpets and hardwood floors, kind of surprising.
Not what I would expect a rock stars house to look like … well, not Tom’s house anyway.
I had his place imagined as a fuck pad, pictures of naked women hanging on the walls, empty pizza boxes and beer bottles lying everywhere. And a few actual naked groupies littered around the place for extra decoration and personal usage.
But some serious thought and care has gone into making this house look beautiful and warm. Actually, I wouldn’t even call it a house, because it’s more than that… it’s a home.
Tom’s home.
A warm, gooey feeling fills my chest.
Pushing the feeling aside, I keep moving.
Reaching the hall, my feet move over warm, hardwood flooring, heading toward the sound and smell of food being fried.
I push open the kitchen door and the sight awaiting me is … well, it’s outstanding.
Tom Carter standing at the stove, barefoot, shirtless, wearing nothing but a pair of running shorts.
And he’s frying bacon.
It’s like all my Christmases have come at once.
“Isn’t that a little risky?” I lean against the door frame.
Tom turns, spatula in hand, questioning eyebrow raised.
“Hot fat. Very little clothing.” I point to his bare chest.
He grins that sexy grin of his. “I’m hardcore, Firecracker. You know that.” Then he winks.
And I puddle to the floor.
He’s so dreamy.
And I’m such a fucking girl.

Taming the Storm Synopsis and Purchase Button
Lyla Summers hates men. Okay, maybe hate is a strong word … Lyla intensely dislikes men.
Her father has let her down her whole life. Her brother betrayed her in the worst way possible. And her past relationship experiences with men have been less than great. Lyla is focusing all her energy into her band, Vintage, so when they receive an offer to sign with TMS Records, it seems that things are finally turning around for her. The last thing she wants is a man getting in the way.
Tom Carter loves women. Okay, love might be pushing it … Tom enjoys screwing lots of women.
When tragedy befalls his best friend, Tom finds himself making a promise to the big man upstairs – he’ll change his ways, if he saves the woman his best friend loves.
Tom’s prayer is answered. Now he has to change. Which means no sleeping around.
After Vintage’s manager breaks her leg skiing, Tom steps in as tour manager, and Lyla finds herself on tour with the man whore of rock.
Put one perpetually horny Tom and one sex resistant Lyla together, equals a recipe for disaster. Or so you’d think…
But an unexpected friendship is formed. A closeness neither of them expected. Putting one chastity belt and one lamp that is in desperate need of rubbing, to the test.
Will the sex storm that is Tom Carter, finally find himself tamed by the rock chick with a hardened heart, or will he go back to his womanizing ways…?

“God you’re an egotistical asshole. You ever consider that I wouldn’t sleep with you because you’re not my type?”
“Not possible, darlin’. I’m everyone’s type.”
