Rosemary Roland was stuck between a rock and a hard place. As much as she wanted to live the lavish life that she was accustomed to, she wasn't too sure how much longer she could suffer under the strict rules put in place by her father before his death. The only way to protect her mom and her younger sister was to say yes to a man that she despised every more than all the rules dear old daddy put into place. One business dinner, one misplaced wallet, and one unforgettable night were all it took to begin questioning everything she thought she really wanted. Tate Wilkins knew he was in the wrong. His mama would kill him if she knew the truth about what he did that night, but she was irresistible in her deep red dress and the matching lipstick. He told himself that it would be one night and they would go their separate ways, but one taste and he knew he could never get her out of his head. She was untouchable and really bad for business. She could destroy everything for him and his family, but what if she didn't?

Griffin "Gruff" Wilkins was a man of few words, a trait he learned at a young age. He was the oldest in his family and learned real quick that if he opened his mouth, it was often shut with a fist or a belt. Therefore, he became a quiet protector rather than the loud-mouth like some of his brothers. After a failed marriage, he decided to focus just on his shop and himself, even if that meant still dipping into his ex-wife from time to time when he needed to get his rocks off. He wasn't looking for anything else until he found himself face to face with a woman who needed his help, the silent protector was back in full force. The only problem was that this woman came with enough baggage to open an airport, including two children, one of whom reminded him a lot of his younger self. Camila Perez thought that she had found her chance at the high life when she met a man at sixteen who swore he'd take care of her. For many years, her life was almost magical, but when the charm wore off, she was left dealing with the devil himself. She dealt with the abuse of her husband for years, but once he began to take his anger out on her two children, she knew it was time to go. A flat tire and a friendly face would bring her into the home of a man who she should have been fearful of. His icy blue eyes were exactly the opposite of the black ones she had come to fear. Camila never thought she could feel safe and secure again, but Gruff Wilkins is about to show her what a real man could give her.

A player, a flirt, a man-whore. Jasper Wilkins would hardly disagree with any of these ways to describe him but did pride himself on never leaving a woman high and dry if you know what I mean. He didn't believe in relationships, except for the friends with benefits kind, but he always made sure that his hook-ups all knew the game before they agreed to play. If any broken hearts were left behind, it wasn't his fault. When he caught sight of the lavender-haired beauty, Landry Vogt, he was immediately attracted to her overall vibe but being his little sister's best friend, she was off-limits from the beginning. Until that one night, the night where his dreams came true, and then he immediately messed it all up. His punishment, watching her find somebody new and starting a future with him. Landry Vogt considered herself to be a pretty independent woman and saw nothing wrong with having a little fun with the guys here and there. If men could hook up with their flavor of the month, why couldn't she? Her plan worked fine until she met Jasper Wilkins and found herself crushing on her best friend's older brother. She thought her dream was coming true when she finally got the chance to have him, but instead of happiness, she had her heartbroken. Ever the independent woman, she left him behind and found somebody else to make her happy. That was until she found out she wasn't anymore in her new man's future plans. When push comes to shove, Landry finds out that maybe the forever manwhore doesn't give up on what he wants that easily.
