**BLURB**
Belinda Baker and I
were not made for each other.
We are not soul mates,
or lovers, or even frenemies.
She is the one
who needed to get away.
What we had together
wasn’t blind love, it was sick rage.
We were a match made
in hell, it was hate at first sight, and when she walked away from me and never
looked back—it was a relief.
It was bliss.
So why did I travel
two thousand miles so I could be near her?
Why can’t I stop
thinking about this girl I never want to see again?
Why. Am I. Here?
And what do I have to
do to make her disappear for good?
Bossy Brothers: Tony
features two girls falling for the wrong men and two men falling for the right
girls. A family of tatted up brothers and a town filled with secrets and
danger. A story of earned chances and first dates. Of coming to terms with the
past and finding a way into the future. It is book six in the Bossy Brothers
series and should be read after book five, Bossy Brothers: Alonzo.

**EXCERPT**
BELINDA
“Jesus
fucking Christ, Belinda!”
“What?”
“Are
you blind? Or deaf? Or dumb? Or what?”
I
just stare at him.
Vann
takes a step forward, forcing me to take a step back too. And my step is
actually a step up. He points his finger at me. I swat it away.
“I’m
gonna say this once, OK? Just once.”
“Say
whatever the fuck you want. I don’t care what you do.”
He
climbs one step. And so do I. “I like you,” he says, climbing another step. So
I climb another step. “I like your filthy mouth, Belinda Baker. I like your
stupid cowboy boots. I like your pink hair.” He keeps climbing the steps, so I
have to keep climbing the steps. “I like the way you road-trip.”
“What?”
I’m so confused.
He’s
still climbing the steps and now my back is against my front door. “I like the
way you wear that glitter shit on your eyelids in the summer. And the way you
wear fingerless gloves in the winter even though you complain, every single
day, that your fucking hands are cold. I like the way your hair smells when you
show up for work and it’s still wet. I like the way you spin on your stupid
stool in front of the shop cash register and glare at the giggly sorority girls
like you can’t wait for them to wake up sober tomorrow and realize they just
paid a hundred bucks for a My Little Mermaid tramp stamp. I like the way you
bite your lip when you’re tattooing and the way you always have a smear of ink
on the side of your face by the time you’re done.”
I
reach up to touch my face.
“Yes,
you have ink there, right now. And I love that. Because you don’t even care
enough to check the mirror after you’re done with a client to notice that you always
have ink smeared on your fucking face after you tattoo someone. I like the way
you kick at stones when you walk down the street like you’re some troubled teen
with pregnancy issues.”
“What?”
I laugh.
“I
like the way you bitch, and moan, and complain that no one takes you seriously.
In fact, I love that no one takes you seriously, because then they’d
figure out just how awesome you are, and I’m afraid you’ll actually find
someone else before I can convince you that I am good for you. I want to
date you, Belinda Baker. And you know what really pissed me off
tonight?”
He
pauses.
I
become uneasy. “Am I supposed to guess?”
“I’m
not mad that you fucked Tony in the alley. OK? That’s not it. I’m angry that
you gave him the chance that I deserve.”
My
stomach… falls. I don’t know of any other way to describe the feeling I
get when I internalize those last few words of his. Except… falling. Like the
world has just been yanked out from under me. Like I’m adrift in a sea of
mistakes.
Because
he’s absolutely right.
“Vann—”
“No,”
he says, still seething. “No.” He holds up one finger. “I’m not done. You don’t
get to talk yet. I’ve been holding this in all fucking night while you laughed
and joked with my goddamned brother and his stupid yoked-out army friend. Who,
by the way, was leering at you the entire time.”
“He
was not!”
“He
so was!”
“He
was lying face down, Vann!”
“I
just want to say this.” He pauses again and his chest is rising and falling
very quickly, like he’s really upset. And his lips are falling into a deep
frown. And his face is becoming flushed with heat. “I have earned my chance, Belinda. I didn’t become your friend because I
wanted to get in your pants. I didn’t get you the apprentice job because I
thought we’d be good together. I didn’t drive you and Tara two thousand miles
to Key West because I thought maybe you’d finally see me for what I am. I did
all those things because I like you.
With no expectations whatsoever. I did all those things because I enjoy you.
And when we’re together, life is fun. Even when we’re running from guys called
Diablo, and smuggling people on boats, and especially when we’re just hanging
out doing nothing. Saying nothing. That’s my favorite time with you. Because
we’re at that place now. That place where we’re comfortable. And I keep waiting
for you to see how good we are. And you just”—he shakes his
head—“refuse! You just refuse to even consider me. But this asshole Tony Dumas
shows up out of nowhere and you give him all the considerations. You say you
don’t like him—”
“I
don’t!”
“You
say that, but then why, Belinda? Why do you give him all the chances he hasn’t earned?”
