They say Grant Corbin’s death was just a bad ride.
I know better.

So, I lie my way onto the Southwest Circuit, posing as a journalist while I hunt for the truth behind my brother’s murder.

What I find instead is Colt Holloway.
Grant’s best friend.
The last man I should want.

Dark. Dangerous. Riding like he’s got nothing left to lose.

Colt already knows Grant was murdered. He’s been trying to prove it for weeks, chasing whispers about drugged bulls, stolen prize money, and a powerful man hiding behind the circuit’s biggest events.

Getting close to Colt is dangerous.
Lying to him is worse.

Because the deeper we dig, the uglier the truth becomes.

Fixed rides. Corrupt officials. Bulls turned into weapons.
And someone willing to kill anyone who gets too close.

The heat between us burns just as hard as the danger closing in—raw, reckless, impossible to resist.

But when Colt learns who I really am…

It won’t just destroy the investigation.

It might destroy us, too.

If steamy alpha males, curvy heroines, and just the right amount of paranormal growl are your thing—meet your new favorite author: Delta James.

A USA Today bestselling queen of romantic suspense and paranormal heat, Delta writes fast-paced, heart-racing, panty-melting stories featuring strong women, dominant men, and more than a few fated mates. Whether it’s shifters howling in the wild or billionaires brooding in boardrooms, her books always bring the spice.

Delta didn’t grow up dreaming of writing romance. In fact, she launched her author career in 2018 after deciding her second act in life needed more passion… and possibly more bite. Since then? She’s published dozens of books across series like Wayward Mates, Otter Cove Shifters, Club Southside, Tangled Vines, and Mystic River Shifters—each one a decadent dive into danger, desire, and often, some well-placed discipline.

She lives in Florida with her pack of loyal basset hounds (aka editors with long ears and zero chill), and when she’s not writing steamy scenes or plotting revenge for her latest heroine, she’s probably riding horses, walking the beach, or white-water rafting—because why not?
