Reflex

Rock guitarist Spook Mortensen wants nothing to do with sex, love, or intimacy. The one real relationship he had gutted him and left him in a hell of heartbreak and self-loathing. A decade on, he's content to remain celibate forever-even when it comes to the unique temptations of sound engineer, Allegra Hutton. Better that than being a monster. Alle can't forget the mad chemistry that roared into life twice before with Spook. They've been texting for a year. Third times a charm, they say... When their paths collide on the Riviera, the reckless energy that burns between them reaches new heights-but Spook has walls miles thick. He swears she's walking temptation in one breath, and that he's not the man for her in the next. Good thing Alle's a born fighter. She's not giving up, even if that means digging into his past in order to break through those barriers between them. Unfortunately, she's not the only one out to expose him. From the bestselling author of Anything But Vanilla comes a tale of carnal torment, determination, British humour, and good old rock 'n' roll angst. *** Reflex is the first of three novels about Spook Mortensen, set in the world of goth rockers Black Halo.***
