Tricked into the annual meat market, er, bachelor's auction, Joseph Camenitti figures he's going to be the pity bid of the night. Does it matter what you look like when you are stuck in a wheelchair? Except he's not the low bid, the wheelchair he is most definitely stuck in- He's the highest bid of the night and then the woman who bought a date with him seems to have known him but leaves before he can really find out more about her or set a time for their date. 

Evie Tolland was dragged to the police bachelor’s auction by her overly sexed up younger sister. Fine! She could look at some sexy cops and then go home alone like always. What she wasn’t prepared for is the guy who has been starring in her sexiest dreams since high school. Only now he’s in a wheelchair. Still hot as hell with the same devilish smile and dark curls she has dreamed of running her fingers through.

Cam always gets his man, or woman in this case. He only thinks he’s figured out her secret but she has more surprises for this former playboy. But can he handle the Pay Back
