Book Description
In the third unforgettable book by New York Times bestseller Emma Chase, Matthew Fisher—the best friend of Drew Evans from Tangled and Twisted—wants to settle down, but he’ll have to overcome the mistrust of the colorful and unique Dee Dee Warren. Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: girl meets player, they fall in love, player changes his ways. It’s a good story. But it’s not our story. Ours is a lot more colorful. When I met Dee, I knew right away that she was special. When she met me, she thought I was anything but special—I was exactly like every other guy who’d screwed her over and let her down. It took some time to convince her otherwise, but it turns out I can make a convincing argument when sex is at stake. You might know where this story’s headed. But the best part isn't where we ended up. It’s how we got there.

She has no problem sleeping with them, but that's as far as she can ever let it go. Cullen, Reese and Damon are used to dealing with criminals in their work as private investigators, but they've never met anyone like the wild omega, Kara. When working for them lands her in trouble, they have no choice but to finish their case with her. They've always wanted to settle down with a quiet, sweet omega who would listen and stay safe, and it's obvious Kara isn't any of those things. Each taste they have of her shows them how happy they could be...if only they could tame her. As Kara and the alphas delve deeper into the shadows to track the missing omega, the differences between them seem insurmountable. Even as danger surrounds them, Kara clings to her need for freedom while the alphas believe changing her is the only way to keep her safe.
