Hyde & Seek: Lars for German Readers

From USA Today bestselling author Layla Frost comes another steamy and humorous romance that revolves around a charismatic strip club owner who can’t resist sweet temptations, whether it be cookies or a charming kindergarten teacher who also bakes.

Joss Lennon’s life is dominated by cupcakes, turkeys, and an overwhelming number of work hours aimed at paying off the mortgage her ex-fiancé left her with. The last thing on her mind is getting involved with a man who comes with his own set of complications. The thought of romance is far from her priorities.

On the other hand, Lars is enveloped in the chaos of strip club dramas, dealing with broken hands and a never-ending list of responsibilities left to him by his cousin. He knows he has no rightful place in Joss Lennon’s world, and he certainly doesn’t mean to complicate her life. Yet, he can't shake off the instant attraction he feels for her. From the moment their eyes met and she flashed that brilliant smile, he found himself irresistibly drawn to her.

Despite knowing he shouldn't get involved with Joss, Lars is determined to make her his. The chemistry between them is palpable, and he yearns to keep her close, never wanting to let go. However, for their story to end happily, he must navigate through the threats surrounding her and uncover who else may be pursuing Joss.

Joss is focused on maintaining her independence and overcoming the weight of her past. She pours her energy into her work, pouring cupcakes with intricate designs and childhood memories into every batch. Love is a distraction she cannot afford, especially given her tumultuous history. Yet, Lars brings an unexplainable spark into her otherwise orderly life.

Lars, for his part, is much more than just a strip club owner; he is a man driven by ambition and loyalty. The chaotic life he leads at the club contrasts sharply with the sweet and nurturing nature of Joss. As they begin to spend time together, their differences only deepen their connection. Lars finds joy in Joss’s laughter and creativity, while Joss experiences a newfound sense of adventure and passion in Lars's presence.

As Lars dives deeper into the complexities of Joss’s life, he realizes that her challenges are far greater than he initially perceived. Threats from her past bubble up, making him acutely aware of the stakes involved. This awareness only fuels his determination to protect her and to earn a permanent place in her life.

What begins as a flirtation evolves into something both profound and life-changing for them both. Joss and Lars must confront their pasts and the uncertainties of their future together. Together, they strive to create a love story filled with the sweetness of life’s little pleasures, overcoming the odds in the pursuit of their happily ever after.

Ultimately, can Lars manage to shield Joss from her adversaries while winning her heart? With both their lives hanging in the balance, the journey to love proves to be as thrilling as it is unpredictable.
