About this ebook

They agreed on three months… but neither expected to fall.

Alex Sebring is a former professional rugby star—and a man with nothing left to prove. Fame, fortune, and adoration were once his everyday normal… until injury ripped him from the game and the headlines turned brutal. Now, he lives in quiet exile.

No press. No relationships. No complications.

He’s content to lick his wounds in peace.

Until her.

Magnolia Steel is in Australia on a three-month work assignment. Just career focus… and maybe a little fun on the side. She never expects to connect with a stranger from behind a wall in a blind-dating suite. No faces. No names. Just voices—and something that feels dangerously real.

At the urging of his best friends, Jack and Laurelyn McLachlan, Alex proposes a deal: three months together, no expectations, no labels. But what begins as a simple arrangement turns into something far more complicated when hearts get involved.

They promised it would end when she left. But what if walking away is the one thing neither of them can do?

Your favorite Australian caveman and his American girl return—a decade later—with a fresh twist on the love story that started it all. Meet Alex and Magnolia.

4.25stars-STEEL BEAUTY is the 4th book in Georgia Cates’ contemporary, adult BEAUTY erotic, romance series. This is Alex Sebring & Magnolia Steel’s story line. STEEL BEAUTY is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, power and manipulation, family and friendships, relationships and love. The character driven premise is endearing and captivating; the romance is seductive and spicy; the characters are determined, charismatic and spirited. STEEL BEAUTY ends on a cliff hanger

It was well written and the characters were engaging. When they met they agreed on a three month fling but we all know that fate often works in mysterious ways. Neither were looking for more but the heart wants who the heart wants. The addition of previous characters Jack and Laurelyn McLachlan added an additional layer to the story.
