From NYT & USA Today Bestselling Author A.L. Jackson comes the next seductive, unforgettable Bleeding Stars Stand-Alone Novel…
Zachary Kennedy has never been known as a fighter, but he’ll never regret fighting for her…
I’m Zee Kennedy.
Quiet. Reserved. Predictable.
When my brother died, everyone thought I was just the good guy who stepped up to take his place in the band.
No one knew what I was hiding. The one thing I’ve been fighting for.
For six years, I’ve never lost focus.
Not until one chance encounter with Alexis Kensington.
Now she’s become my greatest temptation.
I knew better than to touch her, but now that I’ve had a taste, I can’t get enough.
Her kiss becomes my air. Her body my salvation.
She needed a savior and somehow she became mine.
Taking her was a betrayal. But keeping her means risking everything.
One look at Alexis Kensington, and I know she’s worth the fight.
Will my past continue to keep me down or will I finally find the strength to pull myself up and Stand…

His voice was low. The word might have been a question had
it not glided across my skin like familiarity and warmth. “Alexis.”
I barely nodded, my response a whisper as my heart fluttered
and sped. “Alexis.”
His gaze dipped for a moment, tracing me head to toe. As if
he needed reassurance I was here. Something about it felt so intimate and
private, as if maybe when he’d chipped away that piece of my soul he somehow
knew he held it, too.
“I hope it’s okay I’m here,” he said, forcing my attention
back to his eyes.
A lump grew heavy in my throat and I swallowed around it,
nodding as I tried to find my voice. “Of course it’s okay.”
Maybe I should have been hearing warning bells. A thousand
caution flags tossed in the air and raining down around me. Because there was
something about this brilliant boy that screamed trouble and mayhem.
Undoubtedly, this man wore his own beautiful brand of destruction.
And I was the fool who always seemed to run straight for it.
Diving right into the middle of it without having the first clue what was
waiting for me.
“I’m Zachary Kennedy. Friends call me Zee,” he said,
shifting on his feet as if he were wondering what he was doing here.
I could feel the pull of the soft smile at the side of my
mouth. “I know who you are.”
“Is that so?” he asked. Something about it rang with a
tease.
I nodded.
Of course I did. He was the drummer for one of the biggest rock
bands in the world.
And I realized that probably put both of us at a
disadvantage. No doubt he had women throwing themselves at him any time he
walked off a stage or into a room. Wanting a taste of fame or maybe a name to
drop, salivating over this boy simply for who he was.
It didn’t help he had to be the most gorgeous man I’d ever
seen.
But this was different. The staggering need I felt to know
him more. Not the boy pinned to Pinterest boards labeling him a sexy, tattooed
bad boy. Not the boy splashed across the tabloids with their speculations and
judgement.
The real man.
This man made up of flesh and bone. The man who rushed into
an alley in the middle of the night to defend a complete stranger. The man
who’d tenderly rocked me in his arms while I’d felt the controlled rage
radiating from his body.
The one who now stood in my doorway, spinning my mind with
how he could both look so powerful and vulnerable.
My insides shook, and I took a step back and widened my
door. “Would you like to come in?”
A smile crept to his mouth that would be my complete
undoing, this tug of full, soft lips framed by his beard. He tilted his head to
the side. “You’re awful brave to be inviting a complete stranger into your
house.”
I lifted my chin and met his gaze. “A complete stranger who
put his life on the line. A stranger who stood between me and a gun. You could
have died, and I very well might have if it wasn’t for you. Trust comes in a
lot of forms, and I’m pretty sure you’ve already earned mine.”
