Taboo by Melissa Schroeder

When a one night stand doesn’t really stay a one night stand, a woman can only resist the man of her dreams so much.

Julienne Wulf has always been the good girl.

You know the type. The one who never got in trouble, unlike both of her brothers. But after a very public break-up, she’s ready to walk on the wild side and have my first one night stand. A man she never plans on seeing again.

Until they come face to face a few days later at her new job site.

But that’s okay, she can handle it, and handle the sexy former Army Ranger named Alek. No, wait, she’s not going to handle him. She’ll deal with the situation like an adult.

Okay, that’s a lie. Or maybe not. Do adults agree to a short fling knowing that said adult is already halfway in love with a man? Well, that’s what she did.

As he spends his time showing her the real Hawaii, they both realize that their hearts are totally involved.

Soon, tongues are wagging about their affair. Worse, someone seems so angry about her relationship, they send threatening notes which morph into actual physical attacks against Julienne. With their relationship now fodder for the tabloids, she assumes he’ll walk away.

One thing you need to know about this story: she’s never been so wrong about so many things, especially Alek.

Warning: This story includes a good woman with naughty thoughts, a hero who wants to help her live out those fantasies, a meddling family–on both sides, and a trip back to the islands. This is another Harmless story, so you know the drill. Ice water is recommended and the author takes no responsibility for overheating readers.
