The Keeper
By Aimee Nicole Walker

Redemption Ridge, Book 5

Sabotaged brakes didn’t kill Rueben Sanchez, but waiting for his assailants’ trial to start just might. A potential witness for the prosecution can’t explore his lusty feelings for the hunky sheriff who saved him, but that doesn’t stop his imagination from running wild. Rueben has already shaped his traumatic mountainside meet cute with Seth Burke into a happily ever after to tell their future grandkids. When the delay threatens to stretch on for years, Rueben feels his dreams slipping out of reach. Should he surrender gracefully or fight for his man?

Pressure and scrutiny are nothing new to Seth, but shouldering his duties has never felt like a burden until they keep him from the man he wants most. Cracking an unsolved murder, safeguarding a high-profile trial, and winning re-election should be enough to keep him busy. But he can’t stop thinking about the perfect weekend he shared with Rueben before everything careened off course. Are they as good together as Seth remembers, or is his memory swayed by the allure of the forbidden? And does he dare to find out?

Late-night phone calls and shared secrets lead to stolen kisses and a lakeside cabin rendezvous. But one encounter isn’t enough, and the two men will risk everything to explore their deepening bond. When a series of chilling events rock the county, Rueben and Seth must put more than their hearts on the line because one misstep could prove fatal.

The Keeper is book five in the Redemption Ridge series. Though each story features a different couple, reading the series in order is essential. The Keeper contains mature themes and is intended for adults.

The new bed had a gorgeous wrought iron frame and nearly took up the entire room.

Seth came up behind Rueben and kissed the back of his head. “It’s beautiful, right? The craftsmanship on the metal frame made me think of your ironworks.”

Rueben spun around and came chest first with a cold pint of ice cream. “You watch my Redemption Ridge YouTube episodes?”

Seth swallowed hard and nodded. Rueben wondered what the admission cost him. “On repeat. You’re so fucking talented.”

Reuben’s cheeks heated, and his heart swelled. “Thank you.”

Seth’s lips curved into a wry smile. “You’ve amassed quite the fan club. There are a lot of thirsty fuckers out there, but only I get to drink you down.”

Rueben basked in his possessiveness. “Damn right.” He dropped his gaze to the butter pecan ice cream. “Are you planning to share?”

Seth held up his other hand to reveal two spoons.

Rueben cast another glance at the ornate frame and plush bedding. He met Seth’s gaze again with a quirked brow. “You know what’s going to happen if we get in that bed?”

Waggling his brows, Seth lowered his head to kiss Rueben’s mouth. “Damn right.” He placed a metal spoon against Rueben’s nipple and made him hiss in surprise. “You’re going to feel me for days.”

Rueben’s stomach quivered, and he felt light-headed. “And you’ll hear about it every night on the phone.”

Seth’s smile went from playful to sinister. “Which will only make my dick harder and my imagination dirtier as I talk you through nightly orgasms.”

Rueben furrowed his brow and tapped a finger to his lips like he was actually considering Seth’s proposition. He lowered his hand and met Seth’s gaze head-on. “So, a win-win for both of us?”

Seth advanced forward, forcing Rueben to step back into the bedroom. “God, I can’t get enough of you.”
