The Wolf and the Butterfly - Masquerade Club, #2 - E-book - ePub

Childhood crushes, like childhood toys, are meant to be left behind with the arrival of adulthood. So why is it that Josie Collins finds herself still attracted to her childhood crush, her brother's friend Simon London, even after eight years? Eight years which have turned Simon from cute to incredibly well-built and sexy. Josie already has enough issues of her own, including a recent breakup which has somersaulted her onto a path of self-destruction.
She doesn't need a complication like Simon to add to her problems. Simon London has returned to Portland after an eight-year absence, now a successful architect who can write his own ticket. When he reconnects with the family who accepted and cared for him during a rough time in his life, the last thing he wants or expects is to develop feelings for his friend's younger sister, Josie. When he overhears disturbing information about what Josie has been through, his protective nature takes over, and he's determined to find a way to protect Josie.
So how does one get into the Masquerade Club? Josie's friend Emmie suggests the Masquerade Club to Josie as a way to safely blow off steam and redirect her self-destructive tendencies. When Josie agrees to the plan, she doesn't count on meeting the sexy Wolf. She finds herself thinking about him, even when she's at work at the gym she owns in downtown Portland. But she also has Simon on her mind far more than she would like.
To make matters worse, her ex refuses to take no for an answer. What's a girl to do? How do you choose between the unknown and the forbidden?
