The first book in Kate Hawthornes new series, Risk Aware, takes us back to Los Angeles and back to the club where it all beganRapture. Love by Design: Risk Aware Book One is a dads business rival (with a mouth on him), age gap romance, with power exchange, hurt/comfort, found family, and the kind of best friend youve always wanted.
And did I mention Marshall Covington has three brothers?

SILAS
There are ten rules to architectural design including, but not limited to, balance, harmony, unity, organizationvariety. My love life has fewer rules, and its no surprise Im more successful at one of these things than the other. Its not my fault that my personal preference for keeping things fresh throws me headfirst into a less than ideal situation with a stranger, and its definitely not my fault that the man who saves my ass—literally—the last man who should.
Marshall Covington, my fathers business rival.
MARSHALL
I did not set out in life with the intention to seduce the son of my least favorite professor-turned-biggest business competitor, but on the back end of a confrontational meeting that has me desperate to blow off some steam, theres no denying how perfect Silas feels in my arms.
If Ive learned one thing in my thirty-nine years, its that secrets never stay secret for long. Theres no hiding Silas talent, theres no hiding his (platonic) affection for his best friend, and theres no hiding the way Im absolutely head over heels in love with him.
Between his father and my brothers, the truth about us is going to come out sooner rather than later. Weve reinforced our foundation with love, but is that enough?
