Blood of the Son

Skye Morrison seriesbook 1 of 5Next:Sins of the Father(2012) →

Skye Morrison has a lot in common with today's college graduates; she's neck-deep in student loan debt and desperate for a job. For four years, the nightlife of Austin, Texas (home of Skye's Alma Mater) has satiated her thirst for good music, a revamp in fashion and men - especially local musician, Jameson Doyle, but her spot as a waitress at Drop Kick Dan's bar wasn't going to cut the slack. A personal life troubled by a hounding ex only made matters worse. Skye was never the damsel in distress type, but when an unexpected public shouting match with her ex turned physical, a savior disguised as a heavenly gorgeous Irishman came to her rescue. Archer Rhys, a businessman with a lot to offer, doesn't exactly sweep Skye off her feet but she couldn't help but to be captivated by his ravenous good looks. When Archer makes Skye a lucrative job offer as his personal assistant for his new downtown Austin club, The Mausoleum, she quickly finds out that she may have gotten more than she bargained for.
