Book Description
Maxwell Cunningham is a daddy who's spent far too many years without a boy to call his own. It's a part of his past he was sure he'd buried long ago. While in town for business, he ventures into Bottoms Up and sets eyes on a sassy, stubborn bartender whose flair and poorly hidden struggles call to him on a level he can't ignore.Krew Cruwys may be a spitfire, but he is not a boy. No way. No how. Not gonna happen. It's not his kink. Besides, Krew prefers to be free. To explore men and sex on his own terms--which doesn't include commitments or emotions. Period.When a hookup gone wrong leaves Krew in the concerned hands of the sexy silver stud he'd been snubbing all night, things get complicated.Maxwell feels a pull he hasn't felt in over ten years, but Krew is unequivocally decided that he doesn't want a daddy. Or love. Or a relationship.But what could it hurt to play a role for a night? It's only words. It's just a game. It doesn't mean anything......until, maybe, it does.**This is not exactly a Daddy/boy kink book, although, it does play in that direction at times. Any hint at a Dom/sub lifestyle is very mild**

Pages : 348
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • This “superbly written true-crime story” (The New York Times Book Review) masterfully brings together the tales of a serial killer in 1970s Alabama and of Harper Lee, the beloved author of To Kill a Mockingbird, who tried to write his story. Reverend Willie Maxwell was a rural preacher accused of murdering five of his family members, but with the help of a savvy lawyer, he escaped justice for years until a relative assassinated him at the funeral of his last victim. Despite hundreds of witnesses, Maxwell’s murderer was acquitted—thanks to the same attorney who had previously defended the reverend himself. Sitting in the audience during the vigilante’s trial was Harper Lee, who spent a year in town reporting on the Maxwell case and many more trying to finish the book she called The Reverend. Cep brings this remarkable story to life, from the horrifying murders to the courtroom drama to the racial politics of the Deep South, while offering a deeply moving portrait of one of our most revered writers.
