Today I'm sharing excerpts from Never Trust a Pretty Wolf. We'll begin with Chapter One.

Blurb:

Liesel Wolf has a secret, a dangerous secret she’ll go to any lengths to conceal. When she’s paired in a charity game with sexy marshal Andy Bryce, a man with secrets of his own, her carefully constructed world comes crashing down, and Liesel’s on a collision course with her past.

Andy Bryce wouldn’t quit because of a cold reception from a woman he didn’t even know. She’d probably read in the papers about the... Yeah, she probably knew. That would explain her coolness.
