WORTH THE WAIT (Malone Brothers) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781967612147)

From New York Times bestselling author K. Bromberg comes a sizzling novella in the Malone Brothers series.

A stubborn heroine. A broody SWAT commander.

One lesson in control that changes everything.

Control is something Desi Whitman detests. Life is too short to color inside the lines-especially when chaos feels safer than order. But when a stalker shatters her sense of security, she reluctantly signs up for self-defense classes. And in that class, she comes face-to-face with the one man determined to break through her walls.

Reznor Mayne lives and breathes control. As a former SWAT commander, he knows the cost of one wrong move. Taking a temporary teaching role in Sunnyville was supposed to be a break from the past-but Desi is the kind of messy temptation he can't walk away from.

What starts as a battle of wills soon becomes something neither of them can fight-a pull too strong, a heat too consuming, and a connection that proves sometimes the best way to take control . . . is to let go.
