Set the Pace - The Detroit Love Duet, #1

Every city needs a hero, but Detroit's white knight just might be a villain. A rough childhood branded Jasper Storm trouble. A bad boy. Not worth a damn. His love of cars was the only thing that could battle his delinquency. With the need for speed in his blood, he overcame his wayward ways. Mostly. All grown up, the broken city of Detroit hails him their shining star. And the man behind a new cutting-edge automobile is ready to turn this bankrupt town around.
Everything he does in life is fast. He talks fast, f*cks fast, and drives fast. But when one reckless turn brings him face-to-face with the childhood he has tried very hard to forget, he finds himself on the edge of wondering if he shouldn't slow down. Charlotte Lane was the tomboy who lived next door. She was his best friend. He was her protector. Then tragedy struck and she disappeared, forever-or so he thought.
Jasper has many reasons to hate Charlotte and keep his distance, which is easier said than done. Soon she's infiltrating his every thought and he can't stay away. Back in town with an agenda of her own, she should push him aside. Make him turn around. Walk away herself. Yet she can't. With the past lurking between them, they proceed with caution. That is until one sex-filled night leads to murder.
When Detroit's biggest ally suddenly becomes suspect number one, will Charlotte-the girl Jasper once kept safe-be the one to save him?
