Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward are excited to bring you the Cocky Hero Club: original works from various authors inspired by Keeland and Ward's New York Times bestselling Cocky Bastard series.
ABOUT THE BOOK
A sexy, new forbidden romance from USA Today bestselling author Alexa Padgett.
For the first time in years, I want…
I want Knox Wright. My best friend’s brother, my boss…the man who breaks my still-shattered heart.
Knox was a college hockey legend and, now, he’s one of the most successful architects in decades. I was the new hire whose desperate need to move on from that night drove me to succeed.
I never should have accepted the position, not once I looked into Knox Wright’s eyes and felt the heat deep in my belly…but I did. Because Knox makes me feel alive. And as I fall under Knox’s spell, our relationship turns intense and deep…and secret.
When our affair runs the risk of being exposed, I face a far more intimate betrayal than I ever expected.
Arrogant Architect is a best friend’s brother/forbidden/workplace romance inspired by British Bedmate.

COCKY HERO CLUB
I fell in love with Knox in the first Wright sibling book where we meet his pregnant sister in Magnetic Medic and so when I heard that Knox was getting his own book I could not wait to read it. It really was so different than the first book and totally not what I expected at all. It easily stands alone and I really enjoyed reading it. It was a wonderful story about falling for a co-worker at an architect firm run by Knox and his brother.
In this story we get to know Emmaline or Em, who is a good friend of Knox's sister, Aidy and also of Bridget and Simon. Em gets the job at the firm run by Knox and his brother but as long as he never sleeps with her. So that is the forbidden part of this story.
Em is young but she is a person in enormous pain. She sort of lost the love of her life and she really is trying very hard to move on. Enter Knox who makes her feel again and she has to decide if she wants to take a risk on him, getting hurt again and if she is ready to move forward with her life.
This was an extremely emotional story and at times I felt like crying with Em. That said I was also impressed how brave and mature she was in this story.
Knox was a wonderful character and he falls for Em very fast but he has to figure out how to make this at work romance work while making his brother and sister happy and getting to know Em.
This was a wonderful story and I adored every single character in this story. It had some wonderful heartfelt moments and I couldn't stop reading the story, it was that great.
