He can literally take her breath away. Sadie Nair is infuriatingly allergic to eggplant. The dangerous type of allergy that can put her in the hospital. When she has a terrible attack due to an incident with some surprise baba ganoush, she is saved by a tall, dark, and exceedingly handsome man who vanishes into the night. Aubry Gene—not his real name—is on the run from his past as an enforcer in the Nightshade Mafia. His boss used him for his special skills, the skill of becoming an eggplant. Yep. He can turn into an eggplant. His life is in shambles with his old family chasing him across the country. The only company he has is his orange kitty Astin. It’s not safe for Aubry to be around people, much less the gorgeous woman he saved in the bar. But he can’t help himself. He’s addicted to Sadie, fantasizing about her curvy body molded around his. In particular, he can’t stop thinking about what she does to his eggplant. Even though he knows he has to get away to save her, he can’t. He has to have her. She has to have him. And neither knows that, with one spilled seed, he could kill her.
