From USA Today bestselling author Terri E. Laine comes a new standalone romance about an imperfect hero and the woman he can’t let go.
Fate plays matchmaker with my heart by repeatedly putting Gavin Volk in my path. Our mutually insane attraction is instant, captivating me from the first time we meet. The wickedly gorgeous guy knows how to set my body on fire with just one look. Only, he says he’s not boyfriend material, not good enough for me. But he won’t give me If rumors at our college are to be believed, he’s dangerous, connected to the mob. I know he would never hurt me physically, but mentally he’s shielded by secrets he doesn’t trust me enough to share. Yet, every time he kisses me, I feel it deep down in my soul. Though I want him. I should walk away with my pride intact. However, my greatest fear is that if he tells me what he’s hiding, will I be strong enough to stay? |
This book and me – we are a strange pair. Honstestly it had everything that a book should have to make me love it and yet we did not work out. You ever went late to a party ? Entering a place when everybody is already drunk and everything is in full swing. And you were desperatly trying to catch up only hearing the ends of discussions and not getting their points ? Yeah well that was what it felt like to read this book for me. I am not sure ( I would need to check) if this is a series – the book itself gave no didication but almost everything made me feel as if I were missing something significant. There was so much going on and so much input that it felt like someone tried to make a 90 minute movie out of “War and Peace” The characters were great but for my taste there was to much going on in the back of the story for me it felt like an overload. |

Past and present intertwine with light and dark to tell a story …Because of Him
Something inside me fiercely craves normal.
Sheltered all my life and taught to be afraid, I want to be bold, fearless.
Up until now I’ve kept myself and my heart safe.
Tade Astor, a guy so hot he steals my breath away, jeopardizes it all.
He isn’t the kind of guy to give up on what he wants—me.
He’s determined to prove my safe world is missing something—him.
Even though he may not be the cocky guy I assumed him to be…
He’s definitely not the guy I should give my heart to.
But each time I see him, he becomes harder to resist.
I want to be brave and give him a chance… though it might come back to haunt me.
At the heart of Because of Him is a love story. But due to certain sensitive topics, it might not be suitable for all readers.

inTerri E. Laine bring a new full-length standalone New Adult Contemporary
Romance. This novel includes mature content, not suitable for younger readers.
(Rated R)
Man Whore, Player, Heartbreaker are all familiar names to Ben Rhoades. He
prefers Money Man or Sex God, but he doesn’t let other people’s opinions rule
him. And he’s only gotten worse without his compass, his best friend, whose
devastating death at a young age has taught him a valuable lesson about not
getting too close to anyone … ever. Until one smart and stubborn woman with
eye-catching curves throws him for a loop and refuses to be tamed.
Calhoun has her life on track even after the shattering break-up with the guy
she’d thought she’d wanted to marry. With her chin held high, she focuses on
her career, building her business and making a success of it all. Only a chance
meeting has her lost in a set of alluring steel gray eyes that have her steps
faltering and her heart leaping out of her chest. Forewarned by
not-so-flattering rumors plus his no-holds-bar rules, she tries desperately to
play his game while guarding her heart.
the journey they’re about to undertake when their lives collide. Ultimately
they’ll tackle the biggest test of their lives because she is his game changer.
The one, who through the ensuing wreckage, can domesticate the mess of a man
that he is.
There is finality to the sound of the door
closing behind her. A sort of tormenting peace knowing the end has come. It’s
not like I should have expected things to go on this way for long. How could
they?
I stare holes in the walls as if I can still see
her, the one woman I let in.
Sweeter than peach cobbler, she hardly has a
bad thing to say about anybody—until now. Her parting description of me,
beginning with ass and ending with hole, reverberates through my hollow heart,
as I stand here rooted to my spot. I’m not even shocked, as this isn’t the
first time I’ve been on the receiving end of that sentiment. I’m only surprised
because I don’t think I’ve ever heard her so much as mutter a single curse word
before. And the first time I do, it’s aimed squarely at me.
My hands tighten around a tumbler filled with
amber liquid before I toss back its contents hoping for oblivion or something
close to it. This road is so familiar. Only this time is different. I never
cared like I do now. She means more to me than a quick fuck. Hadn’t I been
about to tell her just that? How could things have gone wrong so fast?
Don’t be a dumbass. You can still fix this.
Instead, I stubbornly stay embedded to my
spot because nothing can change the outcome. It’s a truth she and I know will
haunt me until my last breath. And it’s created a wall between us I’m unable to
climb … even if you gave me a damn ladder.
I’ve never been much of a risk-taker when it
comes to matters of the heart. I can fill a bank account with a number having
many zeros behind it from my astute choices in the market. But I can’t be a man
a woman stays with. Hadn’t I warned her about that too?
Unable to see past my own shitty existence, I
long for her to come back. I want to believe it’s all been some kind of mistake
and I can forget what I know to be true. As the seconds continue to tick by,
the inevitability that things are really over sinks in. My window of
opportunity quickly closes as fast as her car door slams and the engine fires
to life.
She’s so close, yet miles away. The longer I
let the minutes expand between us I know distance won’t make the heart grow
fonder. But maybe it’s for the best. Love, or whatever masquerades as it, just
isn’t enough for the dirty, fucked up truth. Right when things were better than
I ever expected, facts messed it up.
Groaning, I launch the crystal glass worth a
small fortune at the door I can’t seem to force myself towards. A beautiful
show of light plays off the shards as they cascade down in an explosion of
fireworks. Visually, it’s what I feel inside as desolation constricts and then
obliterates my chest because the best thing I ever had is gone … leaving me
with only the certainty I’m meant to be with her.
I love you, I whisper for the first time and
in place of goodbye. She left me and will never hear it. I can only pray we
both survive what’s to come.

was on fast forward and if she didn’t do something soon, it would be too late
