Waiting for Wednesday - Wild Irish, #3

He intends to claim her.and he's not above using seduction to do it. Tris looks forward to Lane's once-a-week visits to the pub where he tends bar, so he's concerned when she fails to arrive one Wednesday. Discovering she's in the hospital, brutally beaten, he becomes enraged, his alpha male instincts rising to the surface. Tris vows to protect her with his life, but his dominance spooks Lane, who checks out of the hospital and disappears without a trace. When Lane returns to Pat's Pub, it's secure in the belief that she can resist the far-too-sexy Tris.
A lifetime of disappointment has destroyed her ability to love a man. Or so she thinks. They soon become lovers, embarking on a torrid affair as Tris introduces her to a world of sensual wickedness. But when her dangerous past returns seeking vengeance, she could discover too late that Tristan is the one man worthy of not only body, but also her trust and her love.
