Not to mention the tall, dark, and handsome stranger who came with it. As a struggling musician in New York, I'd take all the help I could get. But I wondered at what price? Because as handsome and powerful as Bentley Schilling was, he was still a bastard.BentleyI'd never forget the day Melody Dumas approached me in that bagel shop. I sure as hell didn't plan to offer her assistance. But when she flashed those deep brown eyes, she could get any man to do her bidding.The streets of New York were not an easy road - one must earn their way. But this beauty was different. She needed to be on a stage, not singing on a street corner. I had the power to help her make beautiful music. Question was...what was in it for me?Powerful Bastard is a witty, sexy love story about a free-spirited musician who just might bring a Manhattan powerhouse to his knees.
