About the book
The last person I need in my life is Mason Payne.
He's the boy who broke me in high school with his cruel words, public humiliation, and a stolen first time I couldn't forget.
Now he's back, tattooed and famous, with those same ice-blue eyes that still see right through me.
I've built a life he knows nothing about. One where I call the shots and men pay for my time.
When Mason discovers what I've become, he makes me an offer I should refuse: a quarter million dollars to join him on tour.
No sex. No strings. Just eight weeks of his company.
But being close to him awakens everything I've tried to bury ... desire, hope, and the terrifying possibility that beneath his damaged exterior beats the heart of a man worth saving.
Hurt Me Good is a steamy, emotional second chance romance and can be read as a complete standalone.

Adelaide Forrest’s Bloodied Hands is a dark, addictive mafia romance about obsession, redemption, and the cost of loving a monster. Once he has her back, he’ll never let go.
