Blurb
He went to jail for her, now she intends to pay him back.
Sebastian
Out of jail after three years locked up, I’m burning for freedom. Before, I’d wanted commitment. Marriage. Babies. A woman who could never be mine. No more. Now my only plan is to live it up.
But at the probation office, a desperate woman pleads for help while a toddler clings to her skirts.
She’s a stranger. Not my problem. No way should I be listening in.
Except…I know her. She’s the reason I went to prison. Now I have a chance to find out why.
Rose
My twenty years on the planet have given me few gifts, aside from the ability to con. The moment I know Sebastian Fitzroy is out of jail, I’m on my way to intercept him. I’ve waited a long time to see him again, even if he has no idea who I am or how, years ago, he’d saved my skin.
I plan on giving Sebastian the only thing of value I have—my body. What sex-starved ex-con could refuse? After that, we’re square.
I didn’t count on having to rescue my kidnapped niece along the way. Or fix my broken sister. I hate asking for help, but maybe just once I can’t lie or cheat my way out of this situation alone.

Lion Heart is an ex-con romance, high on heat and sexy Scots. Standalone with HEA guaranteed.

Caroline's Review
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Gah!! I fell hard for Sebastian! He's my favourite Vines hero so far!
"There was a spark in those wide grey eyes that woke my blood."
On the day that Sebastian Fitzroy gets out of prison on parole, he comes face-to-the face with the reason he was incarcerated. He's thought about her for three long years and almost wondered if she was just a figment of his imagination. Now, here she was, flesh and blood, and he needs answers. The chemistry between them is a thrilling surprise and one he's not willing to give up just yet.
"I owed this man everything and didn't want to share him. An odd sense of protectiveness washed over me."
Rose Jackson has lead a pretty difficult life over the last few years. She's worked hard to survive and make sure her family is safe and has a future together. Sebastian has been her biggest regret and now he's free, she has a debt to repay him. She never counted on falling for him, especially when the obstacles in their way seem insurmountable.
"I'd never get over the way his attention had me feeling beautiful. And how his words, his whispered "Rose" had my heart in pieces."
I've got to say that in the previous novel, Sebastian didn't leave a very good impression on me. However, in this book, I totally fell in love with him and he's top of my list of favourite heroes by this author! He's loyal, focused, and intense, and I loved his determination to move heaven and earth to make Rose's life easier. Rose was a fantastic heroine. She was earnest, determined, and hardworking. I loved her devotion to her family and also how much she cared about Sebastian. They were opposites in so many ways but fit together so perfectly. They were electric together and the ending was unabashedly romantic!! Can't wait to read more by this author.
Thank you so much! <3
