Synopsis

As the founder of a multimillion-dollar international security firm, Carson Bad has built a career on uncovering other people's secrets, which is exactly why he knows better than to base a relationship on them. Yet for years he did just that, sharing a hidden bond with his best friend and secret lover, Tawny Bishop, a woman who brought calm to his guarded life until a single night changed everything between them. Tawny is no longer the uncertain college student she once was. She has become a sought-after perfumer in Paris, outwardly successful but haunted by lonely nights and thoughts of the only man she has ever loved, the one she ran from a decade ago. Determined to move forward and unable to, she turns up unannounced in the middle of the night to make sense of the past and her future. Given a second chance he never expected, Carson is resolved not to repeat the mistake that drove her away, if only he understood what that mistake truly was. Their reunion tests whether two people can rebuild what secrecy once cost them.

Frequently asked questions

  • Can I read Carson as a standalone, or do I need to read the series in order?

    You can read Carson on its own. It is book 3 of Bad Boys After Dark, one of the interconnected sub-series in Melissa Foster's Love in Bloom collection, and every Love in Bloom book is written as a standalone with its own complete romance and a guaranteed happily ever after. Reading the series in order simply lets you follow the extended family as familiar characters reappear across the books.

  • Who are the main characters in Carson?

    Carson follows Carson Bad and Tawny Bishop. Their romance is the heart of the book, set among the big, close-knit families Melissa Foster's readers return for.

  • How steamy is Carson?

    Carson is an open-door contemporary romance, so it pairs its emotional story with on-page love scenes. Readers who prefer sweeter, closed-door versions can look for Melissa Foster's clean-language editions published under her pen name, Addison Cole.
