Stone-Hard Passion — Anya Richards

Book two in the Unveiled Seductions series.

Tattoo artist Jasmina is on a mission to entice her client Vidar into bed, but getting the shy, obscenely ripped troll to agree is going to take some work. Even telling him straight-up she wants him doesn't break through his reserved, polite demeanor. Just what does a jinn have to do? Maybe showing him the pleasures they can enjoy without jeopardizing their friendship will do the trick.

Beneath Vidar's staid exterior his blood burns with the thought of having Jasmina for his own. He's been carrying a torch for years, never thinking she'd be interested in a troll. Although he desperately wants to take Jasmina up on her offer, there's something about him she doesn't know, and he doubts she'll still be interested if she finds out.

When Jasmina's past threatens and Vidar offers her sanctuary, there's no way to stop their passion from boiling to the surface. But despite their new closeness, secrets and dangerous enemies can destroy what they've built, forcing them to sacrifice everything to prove their love.
