Pretending to date my handsome new housemate was already a bad idea, but then I discover he's no ordinary guy--he's a mobster in hiding. And in this story, he's not the hero, but the wicked villain. Rowan Miller isn't used to hearing the word "no." I guess when you're 6'5, gorgeously tattooed, and sculpted like a Michelangelo masterpiece, women tend to throw themselves at you. But in a small town like Darkwater Hollow, a reputation as a womanizer will catch up with you--and your business--eventually. Which is why Rowan needs a fake girlfriend to prove he's reformed. Enter, me. When my house goes up in flames, I agree to Rowan's offer in exchange for a place to stay. After my last brutal break up, I've sworn off charming, smooth-talking men. But the way Rowan looks at me--hungry and possessive--makes my pulse race and my skin sizzle with heat. The longer we pretend to be in love, the more real it feels. Just when I think I've broken my unlucky streak, I discover Rowan's hiding secrets. Big ones, like his real name. Will his dark past bring us closer together? Or will it destroy everything we've built? ~~ When He Desires is book 1 of the Fallen God duet and ends on a cliffhanger. The story continues in When He Takes.
