Stronger Than Passion by Katherine McIntyre
Chesapeake Days, Book 2
Hudson West is the enemy. Nico Shah is trouble. However, when they’re forced to collaborate on a town project, they can’t stop the passion from burning.
Hudson West is the enemy.
The calm, arrogant, stupidly hot owner of the rival restaurant in town never fails to push Nico Shah’s buttons. So when he and Hudson are invited to collaborate to cater the Chesapeake Days festival, he wants to say hell no. But with his mother’s upcoming transplant, he needs that money.
Nico Shah is trouble.
Hudson’s noticed the gorgeous, witty flirt and has veered far away. He’s looking for commitment while Nico’s looking for his next flavor of the night. Except now that they’re working together, neither can ignore the chemistry that’s one spark away from burning down a forest. And when they finally collide, the connection is beyond anything either has experienced.
But with Nico still terrified of the word “boyfriend” and Hudson needing someone who belongs to him, this can only end in heartbreak.

Nico’s lips curled with his grin. “I’ll make one drink and split it into sample sizes for the three of you.”
“Three?” Sarah asked, casting a critical gaze along the row of empty barstools, apart from Gray hunched in his normal spot. The man spent most of his retirement glued to the seat.
Before Nico could answer, movement by the steps caught his gaze.
Hudson stepped into view, and Nico couldn’t ignore the punch of reaction that followed, jitters coursing through his veins. Damn this man and his Henleys. Nico didn’t have a fixation with them, but on Hudson? The guy’s built muscles made the fabric stretch in delicious ways, and his broad shoulders brought Nico’s mind to filthy places—he loved to grab onto that area while getting fucked. Because that was a helpful thought to have now. Hudson’s stride remained confident even as he stepped into enemy territory, the dim lighting bringing out the different hues of blond in his hair and sharpening his proud nose and fuckable lips.
Mind. Out. Of. Gutter.
This was Hudson fucking West, the guy who’d been nothing but rude since the day they met. The one who went as far as to poach North Advantage from him. All of which contradicted with the guy he’d recently gotten to know—full of surprising sympathy, great humor, and a sexy smile when he flirted.
Hudson flashed his stunning smile now as he sidled up to the bar. Sarah’s jaw dropped as she glanced between Nico and Hudson, back and forth, back and forth. Great. This headache was the last thing he needed. Nico sent her a warning glare, one that Sarah ignored.
“When did the two of you start hanging out?” Sarah asked, the question brazen in the air. “I was under the impression you were mortal enemies, like, Burr and Hamilton level.”
Hudson took a seat on the open barstool in front of Nico and looked to him expectantly, an amused grin on his lips.
“We’re working together,” Nico responded, flattening his palms on the surface of the bar. At least he would stick to the status quo, even if his rival had decided that teasing him was more entertaining than launching acidic barbs.
“Try to sound more excited,” Hudson responded in his ever-dry tone. Even still, his words didn’t seem to hold the acerbic bite they used to.
“The opportunity’s an amazing one,” Nate jumped in, leaning on his forearm. His enthusiasm leaked from those dancing blue eyes. “The two of you will be representing the whole town. No pressure or anything.”
“Luckily, at least one of us performs well under pressure,” Hudson said, giving Nico a pointed glance. The lowered tone traveled straight to Nico’s cock, a firm reminder of the brand-new side he’d been seeing of Hudson as of late. One that was scorching and dangerous and needed to be avoided at all costs.
“True story,” Nico snapped back, pasting on an extra wide smile. “Aren’t you glad you have me?”
Catch-up on Chesapeake Days, Book 1
One man looking to set down roots, the other looking to leave…
Fresh out of a relationship, Nate’s searching for a change—what better way is there than renovating his uncle’s old coffee shop in Chesapeake City? He has a new job, in a new town, and a new lease. And when he almost runs over his hot neighbor, Linc, who happens to be his contractor? Well, based on the explosive attraction between them, maybe he’ll find something new there too.
Linc’s been treading water ever since his wife passed away in childbirth, focusing all of his energy on raising his son, Beckett. The obvious solution? He needs to get the hell out of Chesapeake City. But when Nate charmingly fumbles his way into Linc’s life, he finds his defenses lowering for the first time in years. One date leads to another, and hell, this man makes him feel in ways he’d forgotten.
Even though Nate just finished piecing his heart back together, he falls fast. Yet Linc’s made it clear he’s a bad bet. The man hasn’t clicked with anyone since his wife, and if Nate ends up being “not enough” again, that won’t shatter just his heart—the fragile home he’s trying to build in this town will crumble too.
