When my keyboard reveals a world of sensual fantasy and dark desires, I don't know whether to leap into the unknown or play things safe. What I do know is that I'm worth a second chance.

Based upon the New York Times Bestselling series by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward, Cocky Captain is a sexy new standalone novel in the Cocky Hero World. Ex-fighter pilot, Logan Reid, is exactly the kind of man I despise. He's a cocky jet jock, a former Navy Blue Angel, and full of all the arrogance that comes with being the best of the best. I'm an ex-Zoomie, a female Air Force tanker pilot. The rivalry between our sister services is nothing compared to that between fighter jocks and tanker pilots. We're bitter rivals and I'm low-man (woman) on the totem pole The last thing I need is to spend six hours at thirty-five thousand feet locked in a cockpit with the cocky captain. But I have no choice. I'm his co-pilot, and we're taking the CEO of Montague Enterprises, and his family, on a mini-vacation to the Grand Caymans. We have three days on the ground before we fly back. Three long days in paradise and he wants to spend them with me. I have a thing for fighter pilots. It isn't animosity, exactly, but rather a deep-seated dislike. They get all the glory while the rest of us sit at the butt end of their jokes and wither beneath their ridicule. I hate fighter pilots. There, I said it. I hate the arrogant pricks with a passion. But after one look into those magnetic eyes, and the devastating wink which follows, I'm thinking of throwing caution to the wind. What harm can come from some innocent flirting? I'm not prepared for the air to sizzle when he's close. I'm not ready for our explosive chemistry when he touches my skin. I'm not equipped for the fallout when our three days come to an end. Nothing can prepare me when I have to walk away. And I'm not ready for what comes next. He's arrogant. He's cocky. He's determined to get what he wants. And he refuses to let this to end. He's fighting for a forever...with me. But, what if I'm not ready for our beginning? He's arrogant enough to prove me wrong.

Evelyn Thornton is running from her past. Asher La Rouge is forging his future. A firestorm will unite them, but will they survive the burn? As CEO of La Rouge Vineyards, eldest of the infamous La Rouge triplets, and volunteer firefighter, I can have any woman I want. People think my life is perfect. It's not. I've been burned before. By my ex-girlfriend. By the demands of running the family business. And by a wildfire which threatens the wine harvest. With my livelihood on the line, I rush into action in my role as a woodland firefighter. The last thing I expect to find in the inferno is a beautiful woman struggling to survive. When sparks fly between us, they ignite a firestorm too strong to resist. After a shoddy arson investigation implicates Evelyn in setting the destructive blaze, I'm determined to prove her innocence. But sinister forces are determined to keep us apart. Can our love survive, or will it be extinguished along with our lives?
