TEASER

“I want our first time together to be perfect.” Baron waited for her to say something but Kara fell silent, her eyes serious, and her hands stopped their gentle exploration. The silence continued. Regret followed, and his face grew hot.

“I meant I won’t be able to stop—”

“Shh.” She placed her finger on his lips. “That was the sweetest and sexiest thing a man has ever said to me.”

Baron grinned. “Really?”

“Really. Now will you stop torturing me with small talk and kiss me.”

He dropped his head and claimed her mouth. Her lips opened under his, passionate and yielding, sweet and addictive. He slid his hand under the hem of her dress. Her skin was warm, smooth, and soft. What would it taste like? He hoped to find out tonight. She shivered, but his relentless hand kept moving upward, greedily stroking, and worshipping her curves, past the lacey edge of her thong to her silken belly.

He pulled away from the kiss, his breathing shallow. Kara slowly opened her eyes and the hunger in them sent a primal thrill through him. His eyes shifted to her dress.

“Take it off,” he commanded.

Confusion flashed in her eyes. “My dress?”

“Yes.” He shifted back to give her space and watched her bunch the hem of her dress then pull it over her head. Her mood shifted as she revealed a lacey black bra and matching skimpy lace thong. She dropped her head and her hair swung to hide her face. His baby was shy? He hoped to cure her of that soon but for now, no need to make her even more self-conscious by pointing out her wariness.

He reached behind her, deftly unhooked the bra and flung it aside. He stared at the contours of her breasts. Pure perfection, he wanted to say, but words failed him. The tips rose tight and pink against her skin, begging to be savored. He reached out and trailed his knuckles down her warm chest, over the taut nipples. She shivered and arched her back, her breathing short and choppy.

“I’ve often fantasized about these,” he told her softly, stroking and exploring the plump mounds, loving the way they filled his palms.

“They’re not drool-worthy.” Her voice shook with uncertainty.

“They’re perfect.”

SNIPPET

Chase was already in the dining room when Nikki walked in. He smiled, stood, and stepped from his chair. Oh my! He looked good enough to make a girl forget she had a plan. A plan that didn’t include drooling and ripping off his clothes.

He looked urbane in a white, button-down shirt and black pants. The cowboy boots were replaced by loafers. He’d shaved, and she had an insane urge to rub her cheek against his jaw.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Chase,” she said in a voice suddenly gone husky.

“I wasn’t sure whether to send a search party or come fetch you myself.” He gave her one of his heart-stopping smiles as he held a chair for her, and her neck grew warm. “But you were worth the wait.”

“Thank you.” She sat, shifted her glance to him, and caught him with his eyes closed as he inhaled. She knew he was appreciating her unique perfume.

“That’s an unusual scent,” he murmured.

“Thank you. It was a present, and I’m partial to it.” A gift from a perfume maker and a dear friend.

“It suits you.”

They were so close she could see the little imperfections on his skin. They added character to a face that would have been merely beautiful. “I’ll have to tell Deveraux. He worked tirelessly to catch my essence.”

Their eyes connected, and the moment stretched. His gaze left hers and moved lower to her lips. Her lips tingled as though he’d touched them. Nikki was sure he’d lean forward and kiss her. She wanted him to. Her lips parted, inviting him. His eyes, now heavy-lidded, lifted slowly to snare hers. Nikki didn’t look away.

“Deveraux?” Chase asked in a sinfully husky voice.

“A satisfied client with a nose for scents.”

“He caught your essence perfectly, exotic and sexy.”

Nikki loved the compliment. “I do believe you are flirting with me, cowboy.”

Chase grinned. “I’m happy you approve. Did I mention how amazing you look tonight?”

TEASER

Vince lowered his head and gave her a gentle kiss, without urgency. Jade craved more heat, even if for just a few seconds. With his bruises, she was sure tonight’s plans were off. She slipped him her tongue and tasted his sweetness. He let out a hungry growl, slid his fingers through her hair, and accepted her invitation. The kiss that followed, hot and carnal, had her pulse dancing and jumping. He eased back, trailing his lips along her jaw to her ear.

“You taste wonderful.” His husky voice had an unsteady edge. “I can’t wait to sample every glorious inch of your body.”

A dizzying feeling washed over her at the promise in his voice. She cupped his cheek and peered at his face bathed by the security light outside his apartment.

“Vince, are you sure we, uh, should? I don’t want to aggravate your wounds?”

He laughed under his breath. “A few bruises are not stopping me from loving you, Jade Fitzgerald. Not tonight. I need you.” He reclaimed her mouth, again.

Her fingers dug into his arms and he shuddered. Had she pressed on a wound? She released him and wrenched her mouth from his. “Your arm…did I hurt you?”

He sighed and dropped his head to press their foreheads together. “No, you didn’t. That’s my body responding to you. Don’t be afraid to touch me, Jade. I couldn’t bear it.”

Part of her marveled that she could make a man as powerful and confident as Vince tremble with need. The other part, the insecure part, worried that she might not be able to please him.

He gave her cheek a light caress. “Come on. Let’s go inside.”

Jade was still catching her breath when he stepped out, rounded the SUV, and yanked open the passenger door. They hurried to his apartment. Once he opened the door, he pulled her inside, and pushed the door shut with his foot.

Vince flicked on the switch, then turned to watch her. His injured face sported a shiner, creating a pirate effect, leaving her breathless. Their intensity made her nervous and a little self-conscious. He blew out a breath and smiled, his adorable dimples flashing, making her mushy on the inside.

“I’ve waited so long for this. Wanted to rip this dress off you since you slipped it on.” He reached out a hand to trace the strap of her dress, stroke her cheek, moving down to press on the pulse beating furiously at the base of her neck. “So soft.”

When I can’t resist you any longer and I thrust myself deep inside of you…baby you’ll hunger for all of me, you will be consumed by the mystical forces that are a part of me.

TEASER

Like hell he was. It had been three long days since he touched her. The kitchen could wait. She couldn’t. “Not so fast, Hotshot.” She pulled his head and poured all her hunger and need in a single kiss. Within seconds, the atmosphere in the room changed.

His heart slamming in his chest, body heating, Ron sat back and pulled Ashley to him. Hearing her admit that she cared about him was headier than the best brandy he’d ever tasted. But when she’d planted herself between him and those cocked guns, his heart nearly stopped. He hadn’t known what to think or say. But right now wasn’t the time to analyze it. It would keep until later.

He palmed her cheeks to hold her head in place and took possession of her mouth. For three days, he had dreamt about this. Ron had pushed himself mentally at work and physically at the gym to the point of exhaustion, only to have her invade his dreams. If he’d thought that all he needed to get her out of his system was a good lay, he would have found release somewhere else. Right from the beginning, he’d known it was more than sex with Ashley. Known and fought it because he’d taken his mother and uncle’s way of life as the norm, never letting anyone get close. It was liberating to let go.

He gripped her head and plundered her mouth as he intended to do her body. Their heavy breathing, sighs and groans filled the room as their needs spiraled out of control. The desire to cherish and please clashed with the wild urge to conquer and claim. The former won hands down and he slowed to a languid pace. Nibbling, teasing and savoring. He intended to make up for the last three days.

Finally, he lifted his head, and whispered, “Are there surveillance cameras in this room?”

“Are you kidding?” she breathed out. “No audio either. Here or the one upstairs.”

He leaned back and glanced around. It was big by bathroom standards, but not in the same class as the one upstairs. He didn’t want her freaking out because of her claustrophobia. “I want to make love to you right here, right now.”

“Me too.”
