Built to Last (Black Ladder #2)

Scott
My friends think I only find love when it’s attached to a crippled heart that needs fixing. Having one failed relationship after another, it’s hard to prove them wrong. Until I meet Kelsey Reid—a sexy CrossFit guru, business owner, and philanthropist. She’s perfect, with one exception—my best friend says she’s off-limits.

We still find ways to spend time together because Kelsey says she’s never met a challenge she can’t handle. Until I ask for commitment and learn that my best friend isn’t the only thing in our way.

Kelsey
My life is perfect. I love my job, my friends, and most of all, my active after-hours life.

Scott Preston could fit so easily into my routine because, on paper, he’s my ideal man. His bodybuilder’s muscles and dimples put my libido into overdrive. Too bad he’s all about a long-term relationship.

Convincing Scott to leave commitment off the table for our mutual satisfaction isn’t easy. And when things surface that I’ve kept buried for a very long time, I have to decide if I can trust him with my past, or if he’s not worth the pain.

This steamy forbidden love, happily ever after romance is the second in the four-book Black Ladder series. Due to its content, including themes of abortion, it is intended for mature readers.
