In public, you’re Jade. But behind closed doors, you’re—”
“Lucy?” she breathed.
I shook my head. “Mine.”
I was a woman running through a storm, searching for a haven against the onslaught of rain.
We had hundreds of Calamity events in our future. Of nights together, sharing moments under the stars. There’d been a lot of moments lately. I’d only be satisfied with a lifetime more. She was special and I wasn’t letting her go.
Never in my life had I longed to be with a person the way I craved Duke’s presence. I’d take him every minute of every day.
I loved this man with my entire being. If that meant sacrificing my superstar career so he could stay here, where he belonged and was happy, then I’d make that choice. I’d choose him every day, because it didn’t really feel like a sacrifice.

"Duke Evans was as addictive as hot stage lights and a silky, Southern twang."
"Day by day, those broken shards were knitting together, forming a new me."Told in multiple POV, The Bribe is a sweet read with passion, intrigue, and some good old fashioned small-town drama. The romance between Duke and Lucy is a perfect blend of sweetness! Although Lucy is going through a great deal of drama, Duke is kind and caring and stands by her side through it all.
"Whoever you need to be, I love you."Overall, The Bribe would appeal to contemporary romance fans who enjoy a small-town setting with a strong hero and a sassy heroine. This was my first read by Willa Nash and I can guarantee it will not be my last. I look forward to more of the shenanigans in Calamity Montana!
