About this ebook
From the author of the New York Times bestselling Bad Boys novels comes the first in a dark, sexy contemporary trilogy.
Is she strong enough to trust the most dangerous man she’s ever met? And is he strong enough to let her?
How would I describe myself? Well, I’m Muse Harper. I’m a twenty-something painter who loves red wine, quirky movies, and men with a fatal flaw. But that was before I met Jasper King. He became my fatal flaw. Eight months ago, I had a choice to make—abandon everything I’ve ever known to protect my family, or stay and risk someone getting hurt. I chose the former. My plan was working just fine until I found out my father had gone missing.
That’s when I met Jasper. A bounty hunter with the eyes of a tiger and the nose of a bloodhound, he was supposed to help me find my father. What I didn’t know was that meeting him was no accident. Hunting people isn’t all that Jasper does. And helping me was only part of his plan. I just wish I’d found out sooner, before my heart got involved. But even then, I don’t know if I’d have done things differently.
Now, I have another choice to make—trust the man that I’m falling in love with and hope that he’ll do the right thing, or run as far away from him as I can get.

5+ STARS for another amazing story from M. Leighton!! That Prologue...I was already hooked and crying before the story even began. Muse Harper left her life to protect her father. But now that he's gone missing, she hired Jasper King to help her find him. However, Jasper has his own agenda, a completely different reason for taking this job assignment. From the moment he walked into her store, their attraction was definitely tangible. He's sexy, intense, and dangerous. His dark past has made him into the man that he is today. His job comes first, no feelings, no attachments. Until her. Until Muse. She gets under his skin, makes him feels things, and confuses his mission, but yet he cannot stay away from her. Their chemistry is explosive! Muse is feisty and emotionally expressive. And when she loves, she loves whole-heartedly and unconditionally. She's also smart and strong. But is she strong enough to survive loving a man like Jasper King? M. Leighton knows how to write bad boys that we fall completely in love with. My heart broke for what Jasper went through as a boy and for what he's still going through now as a man, believing that he's a monster and doesn't deserve happiness. It made me love him so much more! I enjoyed the dual POV's. We got to see Jasper's inner turmoil when it came to Muse. And no matter how hard they try to fight their attraction to one another, the underlying sexual current is just too strong to ignore. The sex scenes were sizzling hot! I am never disappointed when I read one of M. Leighton's books. Strong Enough had a wonderful storyline with great depth and well-developed characters. Erotic romance with just the right amount of mystery and suspense. At 80%, I was literally biting my nails, anxious to see how this story will end. I cannot wait for more, for Tough Enough. "Sarò sempre pensare a te."

Well, she's done it again! There's too much time between the books, need them now!! A riveting book. Her books just keep you on the edge of your seat but are super sexy. Her heroes and heroines are equally likeable and you have to root for them all the way
