Everyone has secrets, and some will kill to keep them buried…
It started with a break-in. And though normally wedding dress designer Cassidy Tate could have handled it, having Tucker Buchanan’s strong arms, quick wits and great dog as backup was reassuring! The former army engineer turned architect was the perfect guy in an emergency—and the fact that he was willing to pick up the pieces was even more appealing.
Because it turned out it wasn’t a simple robbery. Someone was after something in the shop Cassidy and her fellow bridal boutique owners shared. Now Tucker didn’t want to let Cassidy out of his sight. But was that to protect her—or claim her for his own?
Who was this woman?
Drawing back, he stared down at her, dazzled by the fierce urgency that had consumed them, locking them in a moment rife with power and need.
A witchy little smile tinged those bee-stung lips. “You look surprised, Lancelot.”
“Lancelot?”
That smile broadened as she cocked her head. “You were the one with the white-knight complex this morning.”
“I’m not feeling very pure and honorable at the moment.”
“That makes two of us.” Her temptress’s smile shifted, gentled, as she released her hold on his waist. “But it doesn’t change the fact we don’t know each other very well.”
He knew he stared, unable to look away from the vivid, bright woman standing before him. But he also knew she had secrets.

Dangerous in Dallas:
Danger and desire fill the hot Texas nights…
Have you ever heard the history of a place and it got you thinking? After working in Dallas’s Design District I knew I needed to set a book there.
For the longest time the area was home to many warehouses, then a few decades ago the design community overtook the space, resulting in a series of interesting galleries and wholesale shops.
About five years ago, the area went through another renaissance and in that short time has become one of the city’s crown jewels. Trendy and full of residential and business development, the area has remained bohemian enough to be interesting yet trendy enough to attract young entrepreneurs.
And that’s where we find my heroine, Cassidy Tate, wedding dress designer and part-owner of Elegance and Lace with her two best friends. Unbeknownst to them, there is a secret hidden in the floor of their shop. Fortunately, they’ve got some rather attractive neighbors—ex-military men who have an architectural firm in the same neighborhood—who are more than willing to help them figure out what it is.
I love the adventures my imagination takes me on when I’m writing a book, and it took me on a whopper with this one. I hope you’ll join me on the adventure and forgive my flight of fancy—and creative license—when I happened upon an idea about the British crown jewels. I’d like to think the Queen Mum would approve.
Best,
Addison Fox

ADDISON FOX is a Philadelphia girl transplanted to Dallas, Texas. Although her similarities to Grace Kelly stop at sharing the same place of birth, she’s often dreamed of marrying a prince and living along the Mediterranean.
In the meantime, she’s more than happy penning romance novels about two strong-willed and exciting people who deserve their happy-ever-after—after she makes them work so hard for it, of course. When she’s not writing, she can be found spending time with family and friends, reading or enjoying a glass of wine.
