Successful artist Remi Ford may be hiding the dangerous reason she's suddenly returned home to Mackinac Island in Forever Never by Lucy Score ($16), but her childhood friend, first love, and Mackinac's current police sergeant Brick Callan is determined to find out why. Tensions come to a simmering boil as the two spend more time together on the small island and revert back to their default settings around each other: wild child Remi constantly stirring up trouble and overprotective Brick constantly feeling the need to rescue her.
Why It's Memorable: You haven't read fighting as foreplay until you've read this book. These two are constantly at each other's throats, pushing each other's buttons until the only sensible solution is to hash it out between the sheets. Add to that the fact that they've been pining after one another for 14 years and the (light BDSM) sex is guaranteed to be good. Fair warning: it's a long book and the first scene doesn't come until almost 300 pages in, but for the following almost 300 pages after that, the book could basically be considered erotica. The scene in the alley is especially memorable. Lucy Score's books are all pretty steamy, but this one is definitely her steamiest one yet.
Favourite Line: "The moan that climbed its way out of her throat was downright sinful. He wanted to hear it again and again. He wanted his touch to be the only one that could elicit that pleasure."
