Bad in Boots - Harm's Hunger By Patrice Michelle Book 1 in the Bad In
Boots series.


In order to meet her Great-aunt Sally's will stipulation to 'handle the sale personally,' Jena Hudson visits Texas to finalize the sale of her aunt's ranch to her neighbor, Harm Steele. What Jena didn't expect was to fall for the rugged, sexy cowboy. Harm might find Jena to be the most sensual creature he's ever met, but he won't let her sultry body be more than a satisfying distraction. He learned a long time ago that happily-ever-afters are best left for childhood fantasies. So what's a girl to do when she finds out the man of her dreams doesn't believe in a happy ending? Well, given the right set of circumstances...she'll create one for him.

Bad in Boots - Ty's Temptation By Patrice Michelle Book 2 in the Bad In Boots series.

Ty Hudson never expected a trip to Texas for his sister's wedding would turn into a lesson in patience...of the sensual kind. When a sexy cowgirl ties him up then offers a suggestive proposal, Ty's more than willing to accommodate her, but only on his terms. Evan Masters has always lived her life one step ahead of most people. So she's surprised when she's faced with an intelligent, seductive, tightly controlled man who agrees to show her the ropes in the one area of her life she's yet to tread. Ty might insist on doing things his way-slow and easy-but the more he prolongs their sensual dance, the more Evan wants to show him just how satisfying letting go and giving in to their desires can be. As the sexual heat and anticipation between them builds to a boiling point, Ty discovers that his own personal ""Eve"" is more temptation than he can resist. Note: Even though Ty's Temptation is part of a series, it can be read separately.

About the author

Patrice Michelle

28 books266 followers
Born and raised in the Southeast, award-winning author Patrice Michelle gave up her financial calculator for a keyboard and never looked back. Thanks to an open-minded family who taught her that life isn't as black and white as we're conditioned to believe, she pens her novels with the belief that various shades of gray are a lot more interesting. She's a natural with a point-and-shoot camera, likes to fiddle with graphic design and, to the relief of her family, strums her guitar to an audience of one.

Well, that's the condensed, back-of-the-book bio about moi, anyway. :o)

As for becoming a writer...I wasn't one of those writers scribbling stories as soon as I could write, but I was a voracious reader. At the age of fifteen, I told my mom after I'd finished reading a book, "One day, I want to be the one who writes the kind of books readers think about long after they've closed it."

As Patrice Michelle, I write dark, sexy, action-packed paranormal and contemporary romances.

As P.T. Michelle, I write dark paranormal YA books. My first P.T. Michelle book is coming in July: BRIGHTEST KIND OF DARKNESS.

The first story, Harm's Hunger, was much too short. Both Harm and Jena lacked the character development necessary for me to believe that they fell in love so deeply, so quickly. In fact, Harm declared his love for Jena while he supposedly had amnesia, which was just ludicrous! Ty's Temptation, the second story, was far better. Ty and Evan were far better developed characters. They were instantly attracted to each other, sure, but their feelings evolved gradually making their declarations of love seem real. I'm not sure if I believe in love at first sight and that's basically what happened with both couples. The sex was hot... graphic, but not obscene. Overall, I enjoyed reading this book. Cowboys just aren't my thing.

Can two 'city' siblings find love and happiness in Texas ranch country? But of course! Jena and Ty inherit Great-Aunt Sally's ranch and must come in person [a requirement in the will:] to Texas to sign off on the sales papers. Jena meets hunky cowboy [she doesn't know he's the buyer, he doesn't know she's one of the sellers:] in elevator and lust ensues... Ty returns several months later for sister's wedding and finds that Sally's ranch house where he is supposed to be staying already has an occupant. Lust ensues...
