Against her controlling father’s protest, Doctor Janelle St. John worked hard to become a veterinarian and open a practice with her best friend. As much as she loves her family, she can’t stomach dealing with her father’s betrayal. While she thought her parents would live happily ever after, he was cheating on her mom and starting a family with one of Janelle’s childhood best friends. Seeing how her parent’s happy marriage was just a fraud gave Janelle the realization that love was a hoax at a young age.

Kross Glover is a rare animal breeder who’s drowning in the grief of losing his wife. After leaving the Marines, he worked as a collector and enforcer for The Force until one of his enemies murdered his wife, sending him into an early retirement. After running into Janelle during a run at the park, Kross has a renewed interest in the wiles of the opposite sex.

When he’s shot in an ambush, he has to balance trying to find the people who tried to kill him with convincing Janelle that true love is worth risking it all. Can the dark, fine, and mysterious dog breeder sweep Janelle off her feet and make her believe in love again, or will his demons from the past catch up with him first? Find out in Giving Good Love to a Bad Boy.
