As usual, I must give credit where it is due.

Thank you to everyone involved in this process.

My cover designer: TRC Designs

My graphics designer: Amanda Shepard of Shepard Originals

My editor: Magnolia Author Services

My PR company: Give Me Books promotions

My beta readers: Suzanne, Susan, Amber, and Adrian (who has the privilege and curse to read only the roughest versions of the story).

My wonderful PA, Lori Alexander.

My beautiful friends: Rachel, Jennifer, Amanda and all the lovely sweets in my reader’s group!

Thank you all for the support & inspiration. You rock.

They call me Dangerous.

Which is fine by me.

I prefer to keep things simple, and I don’t mind being alone.

It’s not like I have a problem getting women.

So when Savannah shows up at my shop, throws herself at me, and then disappears...I don’t think anything of it.

Except she’s not really gone.

Suddenly, she’s the only person standing between me and everything I want.

With the deed to my shop in her grasp, Savannah holds all the power she needs.

This girl could ruin me, but not if I ruin her first.

I protect what’s mine.

I just have to let her get close to me so I can find out what she’s hiding, and that might be the most dangerous thing of all.

Warning: Dangerous features situations that may be triggering to some readers such as domestic violence, abuse, and death. It wouldn’t be a Sara Cate novel without some forbidden romance and intense scenes. Dangerous is the second sexy installment in the Wicked Hearts series, although each of the stories can be read as standalones. Welcome back to Wicked Beach!

Don’t touch the rich girls.

Those are the rules.

Sierra is off-limits.

Locals like me can’t have girls like her—pure, rich, and beautiful.

She comes to Wicked Beach every Spring Break, and up until now, I’ve managed to stay away.

But this year, everything’s changed.

Because that doe-eyed girl is all grown up, and she’s not making it easy for me to say no anymore. But my seedy addiction and life of crime has no place in her picture-perfect world.

And Sierra is in more danger than she realizes.

So we make a deal—one week together, but at the end of her vacation she has to leave.

No commitment, no future. No happily-ever-after.

Because if I want to keep her safe, I’m the one she has to run from.

Warning: Delicate deals with the very real issue of coping with and overcoming addiction. In true Sara Cate style, the angst is high and the happy endings don’t come easy. Welcome to Wicked Beach!
