Hard Way — Katie Porter

No holds barred. No mercy. No going back…

Throughout their eight-year marriage, U.S. Air Force Captain Liam “Dash” Christiansen and his wife, Sunita, stayed strong through long separations. However Sunny's new job as a high-profile legal advisor puts a severe strain on their enduring bond.

Her abrupt announcement that she wants a divorce is like a missile to Dash's gut -- but her confession that she's met another man is what unleashes his shocking passion. Sunny is surprised and nearly repulsed by her body's reaction to Dash's animalistic attempt at complete possession. That doesn't stop her from craving more.

With Sunny's whispered approval, their sex life explodes. Not only does Dash's aggression tap into dark fantasies, she's hopeful that now, at last, she'll get what she's always wanted from her devil-may-care, don't-give-a-damn husband. Something honest and candid. Something real.

Yet fiery, carnal encounters won't heal two long-broken hearts. Their bodies are finally speaking the same forbidden language, but it will take more than taboo desires to learn each other for the first time -- and to save a marriage that's only just begun.

Warning: Time to put the kidding aside. Although 100% consensual between a husband and wife, this book contains violent sex that, in some scenes, will appear forced. Readers sensitive to rape scenarios should proceed with caution.
