She's about to walk on the wild side . . .
While filling the display case in her bakery, the bell over the door sounds and Tessa O'Hara looks up to see the man of her dreams. Within thirty seconds he asks her out for a beer. But after four months of dating, she discovers he's an undercover DEA agent-and he's investigating her possible role in her ex-husband's drug business. For Tess, this means their relationship is over.
Brock disagrees. He's committed to his anti-drug mission, but he's fallen in love with the beautiful woman who's as sweet as her cupcakes-and he'll do anything to win her back. Standing between Tess and Brock are their own exes, one of them a drug lord who's determined to get what he wants. Now as danger threatens, can Brock break the rules he's lived by and let loose his wild side to protect the woman he loves?

Tess O'Hara is a fortysomething woman with an ex-husband she just wants to forget. So when Brock Lucas walks into her bakery, she immediately agrees to go out with him. Months later, after falling hard and fast for Brock, Tess learns two things: Brock is an undercover DEA agent who is investigating her ex-husband, and he is undoubtedly in love with her. As the two work to build a new relationship based on trust and honesty, both of their ex-spouses start causing trouble, bringing danger and frustration into their lives. Brock works tirelessly to protect his sweet and loving Tess while she stays strong for him and his sons. The latest novel in Ashley's Dream Man series is a lengthy story with comical characters, complex family plotlines, and a rough-around-the-edges leading man. Ashley addresses sexual assault and domestic violence and is focused on Brock and Tess working together to overcome old demons. With Brock's raw side contrasted with Tess's innocence, Wild Man delivers a passionate, opposites-attract romance.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2013, American Library Association.)
