Baker's Bunch

All it takes is one kiss. One mind-bending, toe-curling, life altering kiss to change everything. The night my brother faces death, I embrace life. I'm a mess. Until the strong arms of Cole Andrews find me. Tears turn to kisses, and comfort to lust. As the men in my life take turns falling off their pedestals, one man rises. The one I've wanted for years. The man I'm head over heels in love with. My brother's best friend. Cole Andrews. Samantha Stone is forbidden. Off limits. She's been running around my head for the last year. In the face of tragedy, she's left alone, vulnerable and crying in my arms. What harm can come of one kiss? One kiss leads into one night of unforgettable passion that changes everything. I can't let her go, but for her brother's sake, we need to keep it secret. Secrets have a way of rising to the surface and destroying everything in their path. When they do who will be left standing? Will I lose her? My best friend? Or both?
