Stellan Knox went to Sweet Temptation Bay to escape the watchful eye of his stalker, only to find himself trapped in his cabin with her. She fooled him into believing she was a stranger, but then he had proof that she was the one stalking him for months. Unfortunately, the moment he saw her in Temptation, his stalker became his obsession. Stellan wanted her in his bed when he knew she should be in jail.
Georgia King thought her temporary guest in cabin number one had lost his mind. The man believed she was a stalker as if she had time for that. The man was arrogant, self-absorbed, and extremely handsome, but none of that mattered because there was a massive tropical storm about to barrel down on them, and he wasn’t responding to her calls. She takes matters into her own hands to get him to safety, but it’s a little too late, and they’re both in trouble in more ways than one.

Chapter One

Stellan

I’ve just finished shooting my latest action film, which will come out next year. There is a lot to do for it when the time comes, but until then, it’s vacation time. I’m in the middle of gathering my laptop and organizing the documents on my desk while my assistant taps her heel on my expensive floors. I stared at them, wondering why I bought this place. This isn’t me. I hate the ostentatious place and the coldness of the four thousand square feet with wide open beige space and nothing in it. Everything looks sterile. I’m an action star, for fuck’s sake. It should appear dirty and manly, but it’s like a floor model for a bland magazine.

“You’re leaving?”

“Yes, I’m going to Sweet Temptation Bay for a while,” I answered without looking up.

“Sweet Temptation Bay?” Felicity asks, sounding surprised as if I hadn’t gone there before. “Why are you visiting her again?”

“It’s not your business how often I visit my Nana. Just keep it quiet. It’s your job to keep my whereabouts a secret and keep everyone off my trail. I want the stalker to lose all traces of my location for good.” It’s wishful thinking until the woman is apprehended.

“Understood, Stellan.” Felicity has been my assistant for ten years, and I can’t imagine how my life would be without her. She’s cleared the path for the past decade. When I first came to Hollywood, it was pure luck that I landed a movie role, and since then, I’ve gone from a bit role to pure stardom, needing someone to help me. She’s been there to keep everything organized and scheduled. She’s even kept the crazed fans at bay. Sometimes, too much. I don’t think I’ve had a date in years, and I’ve never…

Still, there’s one part of my life I’ve kept a secret from the rest of the world—that is my nana. She lives in a small town called Sweet Temptation Bay and has lived there her entire life. I moved in with her for a time after my parents lost custody of me. They had a substance abuse problem that eventually caught up with them. Thankfully, I managed to keep my history a secret and my past phony.

It’s been hard to see her without being recognized, but Nana doesn’t need the press digging into her life, so I make it happen as often as I can, traveling in disguise and my trips brief. With my stalker invading my life, I haven’t been able to see my Nana frequently, but I make sure to call her, or she’ll tan my hide when she sees me.

“Stellan, I’ll do all I can to ensure she doesn’t find you,” Felicity offers.

“Good. I’ve kept my visits to Temptation a secret all these years. I expect it to stay that way.”

“Yes, Stellan,” she answers with a choke.

“You okay?”

“Yes, sorry. I think the air is a little dry in here.” It’s been so hot that the air is at full blast. This is nothing compared to when I arrive in Temptation, where it will be that sticky wet heat that makes your clothes adhere to your skin, and bugs hit your skin all day.

She needs to de-stress as well. I’m not the only one who has been working hard. “While I’m safely away, enjoying my extended break. Take time with your boyfriend.”

“We broke up six months ago.”

“Sorry to hear it. It will give you time to find a new one.”

“When will you be back?”

“I don’t know. A month? A couple of weeks. Since I don’t have anything in the works, I plan to take some serious time off.”

“Okay.”

“Should I start looking for another job?” Felicity asks.

“Maybe,” I tease. She gasps. “I’m kidding, Felicity. I’m kidding. Besides, we know damn well that after shooting a movie, there’s more to do. We have reshoots, press tours, junkets, and much more before the movie is even released.”

“Don’t scare me like that. It’s not that easy to look for another job after getting fired.”

“You wouldn’t get fired if I suddenly retired.”

“I suppose, but then I wouldn’t have the same role, and it wouldn’t last a long time afterward. You don’t have a reason to retire, anyway.”

“I’m getting kind of old and not going to be hip with the market anymore.”

“Stellan, you’re in your prime, and you’re not even dating anyone.” Like, I don’t know. The media is constantly reminding me and making assumptions about me, talking shit about my lack of experience and claiming that I have a little dick or into men and having secret trysts.

If I was insecure, I’d whip out my cock and show them that I’m a fucking giant among men. And I already threatened to sue a guy who claimed he had an affair with me. He retracted that statement in a heartbeat, but the damage was done, and the rumor mill ran wild. Dates were hard to get.

Tropical Storm Gretchen wasn’t the only powerful force washing over Sweet Temptation Bay. Mayor Brook Payne knew a more formidable one was taking over him — obsession. However, he was a man who had a considerable amount of control and dedication. After all, he’d been an admiral in the Navy at a very young age before retiring early due to an injury.

His control and determination held on by a thread the longer he worked side by side with Taylor, especially during the catastrophic weather. She was more than just his assistant. She was special and yet so forbidden.

Taylor Phillips had enough of her boss. If she hadn’t needed to see him every day, she would have quit. Her quiet crush was almost driving her as mad as Mayor Payne did. With the storm having blown through, there were strong men fixing the town, including her hot boss, who suddenly decided to flex his muscles. She wasn’t sure she could hide her feelings anymore. Would he want her, or was it the adrenaline of the storm bringing out his possessive side?

Prologue

Brooks

My hand threads through my short hair, angrily tugging on the roots. The sound of my campaign manager’s heels walking across the lobby and toward my office amplifies my annoyance. Why I decided to take on the role of mayor is beyond me. I’m a hands-on kind of guy, and sitting in front of a desk isn’t easy. The assistants don’t make it any better with their incessant chatter and their endless flirting.

“Now, Mayor Payne, you can’t keep firing every assistant like this. It looks terrible. This is your fifth assistant this week. We understand that you’re going through a difficult time with the change in careers and the rapid special election. Still, the town has gone through such a major upheaval, and you’re the perfect man to bring the people together. They can’t see you as the brute the old assistants are making you out to be. You must be the hero the town desperately needs.”

She’s right, and a big reason I ran for the position in the first place was when the old mayor went down for corruption, destroying the trust of the people while stealing millions of tax dollars. Sighing, I adjust my suit tie and sit in my chair, trying to be calm and poised, but my damn leg is throbbing today. “Damn it. Fine. Send the next one in, but she better be good.”

“She’s all we have left,” she replied with a sigh as her shoulders slumped.

“That doesn’t bode well.”

“She’s good enough, but…” She bites down on her bottom lip, and I don’t like her sudden wary expression. As someone in her field and having dealt with me and my moods, she’s never been this nervous.

“But let’s just say collaborating with her will help your image.” My brow kicks up nearly to my hairline when I consider the only female that could make me look better.

“Oh, no…” Please help me. If it’s who I think it is, I’m fucking screwed.

In walks the walking temptation, the reason I let her father get away without serving fucking jail time, the reason I stayed in Sweet Temptation Bay long after I should have left, and the real reason I took the offer to run unopposed as mayor that I wouldn’t admit to anyone.

Taylor Phillips.

“Good morning, Mayor Payne,” Taylor says. It is that sugary, sweet southern belle tone with just a hint of grit only brought on by the rough months she’s endured.

I remember the first time she and I met. I’d just argued with my friend who wanted me to run for the open mayor position.

“Brooks, it’s the best decision for you. If I were you, I’d go for it. You’re going to gain sympathy, and you’re a townie, so you can easily win.”

“I’ll think about it. I need my rest, though.”

“Fine, just let me know.” I sent out the Attorney General, who happens to be a friend of mine. He wants me to run for mayor. A position I’m not quite sure I’m suited for, but my hometown could really use a new mayor.

“Hello? Admiral Payne?” a soft voice enters my consciousness. Suddenly, I’m awakened from my deep, depressing thoughts about my future. I’ve just spoken to my lawyers in the Navy, and I have no choice but to retire, given my injuries.

I was just offered the chance to run for mayor of my hometown yesterday, but I’m not in the mood to serve more people. Turning to the voice in the room, I find the cutest woman I’ve ever seen biting on her bottom lip. Have I died and gone to heaven?

The monitors in the room beat faster, showing my heart rate picking up and giving me away. That irritates me, so I take it out on the innocent angel in front of me. “Can I help you, sweetheart?” I ask, trying to figure out how to read her.

When Tropical Storm Gretchen swept through, Axel Knight couldn't let his Honeybee wash away just because he's over a decade older than her. Storming into town to find her, he will protect his baby girl anyway he has to and at all costs.

Honey expected the storm to blow over, what she didn't expect was her Knight to barrel in and rescue her before the water came rushing in. Unfortunately, he's only there to keep her safe when she needed more because when she sees Axel the streets aren't the only things flooding.

Prologue

Axel

Two Years Earlier

“Hey boss, I have a neighbor who could use some work on her building. She lost her parents about two months ago and her brother is recovering from a serious injury. I offered the company’s services. She’s a good girl.”

“For free? Discounted?” Paul has a good heart and sometimes it leads him to volunteer and do charity work. I’m all for it as well, but I run a company so I can’t just send my men off projects to handle other ones.

“No, but I said I’d make it quick. It’s an emergency, and I said I’d get a small crew of two guys out there first thing in the morning.”

“I will go and speak with her about it tonight. Then we can see who can be used.”

“Are you going to be harsh?”

“Of course not. I’m not a bastard. Since when are you so concerned about this woman? Aren’t you married?”

“Yes, and my wife adores her as well,” he growls, informing me that I’m way off base on my assumption.

“Fine. I’ll check out the work. Send me her information.”

“She’s still in her shop in town until seven, but the work is at her farm.”

“That’s fine, Paul. Have a good night.” After I end the call with Paul, I pack up my current onsite trailer and stuff everything into my pickup truck. I was working late anyway and since it’s all I do, I’ll just head into town and speak with this woman.

He sends me the address and when I pull up to the shop, I let out a chuckle. I’m sure as fuck not taking on the job myself. Honeybee’s Sweets. On the front of the large picture window is a honey pot with a bumblebee. I’m guessing the farm that needs some of our expertise is a bee farm. I happen to be allergic to bees.

I exit my truck and then I see a sign in the window to elect Brooks Payne for Mayor. I’ve met the guy recently at an event. Cool guy. A former serviceman injured when he came home for his parents’ funeral. It forced him to retire and I guess he’s making the best out of a fucked-up situation instead of dwelling on the end of his career and the loss of his parents.

I entered the shop to the little chime on the door, causing a beautiful honey-colored hair to come out of the back room.

“Oh hello,” she says, smiling brightly. Her voice is soft as her hair looks. The light shines on her bright hazel eyes and I’m floored. Shit.

Clearing my throat, I manage to get out a simple, “Hello.”

“How can I help you?”

“I’m Axel Knight, and I’m looking for the owner.”

“I’m her. Honey Payne.” She sticks out her hand, and I take it, turning it to check for a ring. Brooks is one of the youngest candidates ever to run for mayor, but because of his background and having grown up here, he’s a likely shoe in for the position.

“Is Brooks your brother?” I ask.

“Yes, he is. Good guess.”

“I don’t see a ring on your finger and he’s too young to be your daddy.” She blushes.

“Yes, he’s eight years older than me.”

That fucking knocked all the wind out of my sails. “Wait, that means you’re like twenty?”

“I’ll be twenty soon in about a month.” Nineteen. Fuck. I do the math in my head. We’re fifteen years apart. Fuck, fifteen and some change. I’m almost old enough to be her daddy. Shit, I got tools older than her.

“So Paul told me that you needed some work done.” I’ll brave all the damn bees in the world to do whatever she needs.

“Yes, there are several beams that are deteriorating and they need repair. My usual guy who does the handiwork has gotten a little too old and can’t do the work anymore.”

“No problem. You need anything done, you just give me a call, okay?”

“What are your rates? Paul is well off, so I’m sure you’re pretty expensive.” She doesn’t have to pay a dime as far as I’m concerned.

“Don’t worry about it. Trust me, it’s not anything expensive. Now Paul said that he was going to bring out a team tomorrow.”

“Did he? I didn’t even tell him what I needed done.” She slaps her hands on her hips, drawing my attention to the way they jut out from their waist. I’d love to see it thicken with my babies. Fuck me. I’m so hard for this little girl and it isn’t right. I swallow hard and step back. She looks at me nervously, and I wonder if she’s caught on to my lecherous hunger.

The door chimes behind me and in comes Brooks Payne. “Oh hello, Mr. Knight.”

“Hi, Brooks. What brings you over?” I’m guessing from the shocked expression on her face that it’s not a regular occurrence.
