But won't be denied... Can true love heal the deepest scars? For Kat Lane, teaching inmates at a New York prison is her way of upholding the legacy of her beloved father, murdered fifteen years ago. But when new student Wes Carter walks into her classroom, she's shaken by the strength of her attraction to him. Carter is as handsome as he is dangerous, as mysterious as he is quick-witted - and he ensures people keep their distance. Yet vibrant Kat bypasses his defences and challenges him to reveal the real man behind the intimidating reputation. As their emotional barriers crumble, their inescapable but forbidden feelings cannot be ignored. But will Kat's discovery of Carter's role on the night her father died force them apart...or bind their hearts for ever? A Pound of Flesh is a tale of loyalty, redemption and all-consuming love against the odds, introducing an irresistible bad boy hero...
Katherine Lane’s life was changed on a cold New York street when she was just nine years old. Her father was brutally murdered right in front of her and it was on that day that she vowed to keep his memory alive by helping others.
Taking a job teaching in a prison is a far cry from what her overprotective mother ever wanted for her daughter. But Kat knows that this is where she can make a difference in someone’s life. And she never though she would meet anyone like Wesley James Carter. “You know a lot about debt?”
Carter is far from your typical resident at Arthur Kill. He’s highly educated, well spoken and disturbingly gorgeous. There is an instant spark between him and the fiery Ms. Lane. So when she offers to continue to tutor him as a condition of his parole, he more than welcomes the chance to finally get her alone.
The attraction between them proves impossible ignore and being together puts them both in harm’s way. They can try to hold the world at bay and overcome any obstacle in their path. But when greed and deceit come looking for them – they can only hide away for so long. “Peaches?” At the sound of Carter’s voice around her pet name, two large tears fell onto her arm. “Do you wanna get outta here? Go somewhere?”
Now THIS is an epic romance! Sophie Jackson has masterfully created the perfect hero in Wesley Carter. Yes, he’s gorgeous and mysterious. But he’s also so openly honest and real that you can’t help but fall utterly and completely in love with him.
With a powerful story and equally powerful characters, A Pound of Flesh is a phenomenon that you won’t want to miss… Get The Book -
