No strings. No tomorrow. Just here and now...
Luke ‘’Mac’’ MacKenzie has no past. Orphaned at twelve, he doesn’t remember his real name or why his parents were on the run. The name “Aileen Quinn” means nothing to him. Now Mac wanders through the country as a pilot, never settling down...until he finds something—or someone—who stops him in his tracks.
After all she’s been through, Emma Bryant just wants a fling—a hot man for a passionate night she’ll never forget. Preferably someone tall, dark and really, really hot. Like Mac. The problem is, there’s nothing casual about the heat between them...or the bond that threatens them with something neither thought they could have: a future.
Praise for Kate Hoffmann’s The Mighty Quinns
“[Kate] Hoffmann always brings a strong story to the table with The Mighty Quinns, and this is one of her best.”
—RT Book Reviews on The Mighty Quinns: Eli
“[Hoffmann’s] characters are well written and real. The Mighty Quinns: Eli is a recommended read for lovers of the Quinn family, lovers of the outdoors and lovers of a sensitive man.”
—Harlequin Junkie
“Hoffmann always does a great job creating different stories for the members of the Quinn clan.”
—RT Book Reviews on The Mighty Quinns: Rogan
“A winning combination of exciting adventure and romance... This is a sweet and sexy read that kept me entertained from start to finish.”
—Harlequin Junkie on The Mighty Quinns: Malcolm
“As usual, Hoffmann has written a light yet compelling tale with just enough angst and long-term background story to provide momentum for the next member of the Quinn family we are most certainly going to meet.”
—RT Book Reviews on The Mighty Quinns: Ryan
I’ve been writing for the Mills & Boon Blaze line for about as long as the imprint has been in existence. And the Mighty Quinns have been a part of my writing life for fifteen years and thirty-four stories!
In this final book of my “Black Sheep” series of the Mighty Quinns, I’ve taken on an unusual challenge—a virgin heroine and a hero with no past. Working with quirky characters can be a lot of fun and opens new doors when it comes to the romantic relationship.
I hope you enjoy Mac and Emma’s story as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Happy reading,
The Mighty Quinns: Mac

Epilogue
“WHAT’S YOUR NAME, SON?”
Lukas sat on the edge of the gurney, his gaze darting around the exam room. He was trapped by a pale green curtain on three sides, and he fought the impulse to run. It would only make him look more suspicious and he was unsure of what was waiting on the other side.
The police officer pulled up a stool and sat down, resting his hand on Luke’s knee. “Do you know where your parents are? They were with you ten days ago when you checked into the motel. What happened?”
Tears welled in the corners of his eyes. How long had it been? He’d lost count of the days since the fight. It had been a particularly violent argument between his mother and father, and, as usual, he’d locked himself in the bathroom, covering his ears against the bitter words they’d flung at each other.
But this fight had been different. The next morning, when he’d woken up, they were gone. He’d found
