BOOK SYNOPSIS



Undone - Cover






Chance didn’t expect to start his day in the back of a police cruiser. Lucky for him, the man behind the wheel is Chance’s best friend and onetime lover, Jaxon.




Jaxon wants Chance. He has since the first moment he set eyes on the sexy librarian.




Unfortunately, Chance always has bullshit going on, standing in their way. Most men would consider Chance more trouble than he’s worth. Not Jaxon. He can’t get enough of Chance’s constant drama. When Chance’s life spirals out of control—the way Chance’s life always seems to do—Jaxon rushes to the rescue, only to end up screwing things up… again.




These two independent souls might drive each other mad, but there’s no denying their love or the fiery hot passion brewing between them. If only Chance could stop lying to Jaxon, maybe they’d stand a chance.




Undone is a short introduction to Charity Parkerson’s new M/M series, Hooked.

EXCERPT




He’d always had a weakness for hard bodies. Although a common downfall among anyone possessing sexual organs, Chance had taken his obsession to a whole new level. Two weeks after his eighteenth birthday, he’d walked away from drug-dealing parents who took turns serving time, and straight into the arms of a professional body builder who’d caught his eye. The man had been in Chance’s hometown of Chetwood, Alabama working at an author’s book signing where he’d been the cover model. 




Chance loved books. Adam was on the cover of several. Insta-book-boyfriend-love had been born. At the time, Chance hadn’t seen a problem with running off with the twenty-six-year-old hottie. Of course, there’d been a thousand things he hadn’t seen a problem with when it came to Adam Lowe. Loving Adam had made Chance incredibly stupid. 




When Chance was twenty-four, while traveling with Adam for a competition, Adam hooked up with another competitor, leaving Chance alone in a strange town where he hadn’t known a soul. He’d survived. Chance always survived—somehow. 




Now, here he was at twenty-seven, and Chance would like to believe he’d learned his lesson. The hot ones were always trouble. Of course, he’d also like to think Adam had been his biggest misstep, but no. That honor went to Jaxon West. In this case, it wasn’t the other man’s fault. 




Chance was the one who was the idiot in this equation. Jaxon was the only good man Chance had ever fallen for, and Chance was—no doubt—the biggest mess Jaxon had ever encountered. 




There had been one steamy night between them… Chance turned his mind away from the memory of Jaxon’s hands skimming over his skin. Since Chance was currently sitting in the back of a Rutherford County police cruiser, sweating in places God could not have intended, he didn’t need to go there. Jaxon was behind the wheel, making it that much harder. Pun intended. Yep. It was like that. He’d forced Jaxon to extremes.

Author: M.L. Steinbrunn
Genre: YA/NA Romance
Release Date: January 15, 2016


Have you ever looked around at your life and thought to yourself, this can’t be what the universe had planned for me?

This thought enters my brain…Every. Single. Day.

I have no clue what I’m supposed to be doing, but this isn’t it.

I don’t want extraordinary. I’ve never wanted extraordinary. I just want normal…whatever that is.

When I enrolled in Middleton High School, I was just looking to find some resemblance to the typical high school experience.

Then I met Matt Rhodes. He lives the life of envy: popular, athletic, top of his class. Yet he wants none of it; he would gladly give it all up to gain back everything that he’s lost.

Together we will redefine normal.

“Who’s your favorite Avenger?” Carter asked. 


Jackson’s sigh was exaggerated. “Tom Hiddleston.”


“Loki isn’t an Avenger.” 


I felt a bit like I was watching a verbal tennis match.


“I didn’t say Loki. God, that accent. I’d go gay for that.”


Carter laughed. “That implies you’re straight now.”


“Busted.” There was no embarrassment in Jackson’s retort.

his order to evacuate.

Excerpt




A loud knocking pounded at the door. “NY Fire Department!” A voice shouted as he knocked on her

door. 




“Shit!” She shut the shower off and grabbed a white towel, wrapping it around her torso. Lexa walked to the

door, poking her head out. 




A man, dressed in a NYFD outfit stood with his helmet on. “Ma’am, you need to evacuate the

building.” 




“What? Why?” Lexa asked, cinching the towel to her chest.




His blue eyes were captivating. His New York accent entrancing. 




“Can’t say. We’ve been ordered to evacuate the entire premises.”




“That’s absurd!” Lexa huffed. “Let me get my clothes on.” She didn’t give him time to object. She

slammed the door in his face, dropped her towel, and stalked back to the bathroom to get her dress back

on. 




From inside the bathroom, she pulled the little black dress on over her head, reaching for her panties when

the ground rumbled as an explosion rocked the seventh floor of the hotel, drowning the entire floor in

flames and smoke, and tossing her against the wall.

Excerpt




To love is to destroy oneself or that which you love. Happiness is a mere memory in times of anguish.

There were days Prince Aaron despised his father, the king of Brayleigh. He was a force of nature, like a

hurricane that swept in and stole the women he desired. No prince could deny the king a courtesan of his

own, even if it meant losing one of his girls. 




Aaron had learned how the game had been played. Every month he'd been forced to give up a love to

acquire a virgin. Perhaps if he didn't fall so hard every time, it would be easier. 




The monthly festival always came quick, and with less than two days to choose who would leave the

palace, Aaron felt his heart pulsate and his stomach tense. There were many decisions he could make, but

forcing a woman he had loved away was a horrendous task to ask of anyone. Every month he swore not to

fall for another virgin that offered herself to him, but she would always be appealing and interested, making

him desire her even more. 




He needed time away from the palace. With twelve gorgeous courtesans that gave him everything he could

desire, who would he send away? He tried not to think about the life they'd be subjected to. It wasn't a

secret that the women weren't sent home to their families. The Courtesan Slave Trade had prospered

tremendously and the thought made Aaron physically ill. Most courtesans found themselves subject to the

black market, traded as a slave for the most affluent buyer, unless other arrangements were made. His

girls deserved a better send off. 




For months he'd been forced against his wishes to choose a courtesan to leave the palace. Though

difficult, he'd chosen the older and least desirable to him, preferring young virgin women. He'd snuck the

girls out during the night, helping aide in their escape. They deserved to be happy. If King Gideon ever

discovered what Aaron had been up to, the punishment would be atrocious. Aaron would have to make

sure no one said a word. He could trust his older brother James, but August would take any chance he had

to get on his father's good side. Aaron didn't know how Henry would react. His brothers all enjoyed the

monthly allotment of women and the royal harem.




Aaron slipped out of the room, leaving Celeste sound asleep on his bed. He needed someplace to think

and that wasn't in the palace with the girls sucking up so that they wouldn't be sent away. Didn't they know

he'd spare their life? He had assured them that their future with him was always safe and secure, whether

he was their prince or lover.




He trudged down the stairwell, a pair of keys in his hands. He made it to the bottom of the stairs, and with

his hand on the door, he caught sight of his father at the opposite end of the hall.




"Shit," he cursed under his breath, unable to get away without being seen. It wasn't as though he didn't

have permission to leave freely, however, it had been frowned upon. If he wanted to leave the palace, he

needed to take a driver and a guard or two with him. Aaron wanted neither of those to accompany him on

his journey. Drivers and guards couldn't keep secrets. He'd learned that in the past and wasn't going to

make the same distinctive mistake again. 




"Where are you off to?" King Gideon asked, strolling across the marble floor. He paused directly in front of

Aaron, waiting to hear his answer. 




Aaron shoved the keys into his pocket, hoping his father hadn't noticed. "Does it matter?" He'd always

walked a fine line of obeying his father and doing what he felt was right. 




"I asked you a question," his father said. The king's tone was short and abrupt, reminding Aaron that he

was not yet in charge. 




Aaron knew he'd never be king, and he'd grown accustomed to that fact and had been fine with it. He

recognized that he didn't have to be king to change the world. Not that he felt it needed a lot of changing,

just bits and pieces. He didn't agree with how his father handled the disposal of courtesans. They were

people not trash. Did he not realize that, or more likely he just didn't care.




"Out," Aaron said. "I need to think." He also had to make the arrangements for transporting the courtesan

out of the palace without drawing suspicion. It didn't happen without intricate planning.




"Don't waste too much of your time among those outside," Gideon said. "We drew walls around our home

for a reason." 




Aaron breathed out through his nostrils, trying to remain calm. He restrained himself from shooting an insult

that would get him belted by his father. 




"Of course, Father," Aaron said. He brushed by the king of Brayleigh and made a swift exit outside for the

car. 




From the corner of his gaze, Aaron caught sight of movement along the side of the vehicles, ducking just

below the window not to be seen. Whoever it was hadn't done a great job of hiding. Had a guard been

assigned to him on protective detail? Aaron could lose whoever followed him. It wouldn't be the first time

he'd escaped the men from the palace. He knew they'd be too ashamed to admit defeat to his father, which

made the challenge into a game for Aaron. How quickly could he lose the guards that followed the vehicle

he drove? 




With the keys in hand, he approached the door to the silver sports car and the handle automatically

unlocked. Aaron climbed into the front seat and pressed the button on the dashboard to roll down the top of

the vehicle. The sun shined and the air felt warm enough to enjoy the fact it was a convertible. The car had

some age but it barely passed as an antique. His father would have a fit if he knew which car Aaron took.

Why keep it if no one would drive it though? Perhaps with a heavy ounce of permission and a driver, Aaron

would have been able to sit in the passenger seat, top up.




Aaron had been given driving lessons but that had been more out of sheer curiosity. His father had no

knowledge of the instructions or practice trips to the black market with the driver. The lesson had been a

secret gift, but for what reason? Aaron recognized people could be nice, but they never gave without

wanting something later in return, even if it was a favor. As a prince of Brayleigh, he had to be careful what

he promised. 




Aaron started the engine and slowly lurched forward, waiting for the exit at the gate allowing him to leave.

From the rearview mirror, he watched a dark blue sedan pull out from the parking lot. The only cars on the

premises were those owned by the royal family.


Without a doubt, Aaron watched the guard follow him from the palace. He inched forward through the gate

and then pressed the pedal down to the floor, speeding away from the palace onto the paved road. There

were a few roads that were kept in moderate condition for the royal family. Most had been abandoned,

much like cars.




Aaron hugged the curves of the road, refusing to slow as the road winded farther from the palace.





"Where are we heading?" a soft feminine voice asked, popping herself up from the almost non­existent

backseat. There wasn't much room. She laid on the seat, a black blanket covering her, blending into the

seat.




His eyes widened and heart leapt as he glanced back at the blonde haired, blue eyed beauty.




"What the hell are you doing, Celeste?" Aaron asked. 




"I wanted to be with you," she said. "You always sneak off from the palace, and I thought you wouldn't mind

the company. Where are we going?"
