Excerpt
The cab driver chose to mostly ignore their heated
make-out session in the back seat, but the same couldn’t be said for the
carload of horny, voyeuristic teen-aged boys in the lane to their left. It was the enthusiastic honking of the car’s
horn that finally caused Nathan to stop kissing his very eager fiancée and lift
his head. When he saw the three grinning
faces pressed against the car windows, all giving him the thumbs-up, he flushed
a bright shade of red and gingerly eased Julia off his lap.
“Uh, baby, we sort of have an audience,” he
whispered urgently, indicating his head to the left.
“Hmm?” Julia was still more than a little dazed from
the way he’d been all but devouring her mouth and how she’d been basically
dry-humping him very, very eagerly. She
lifted her gaze and then gave a shriek of alarm when she spied the leering
masculine faces directed her way, in particular the one in the middle who was
even now making a rather obscene gesture that she didn’t even want to try and interpret.
“Oh, God.” Mortified, she hid her face in her hands
and scooted several inches away from Nathan.
“What in the world is he doing with his hands anyway?”
Nathan grimaced, then scowled at the horny young men
before patting Julia on the shoulder.
“Uh, trust me, you don’t want me to explain. It would just really, really gross you
out. Ah, good, they’re turning left up
here.”
Still hiding her face, Julia shook her head. “I can’t believe we were just being gawked at
that way. Don’t their parents teach them
any manners?”
He burst out laughing, and cuddled her close. “Baby, they all looked about fifteen years
old and bursting with hormones. Good
manners are the last thing on their minds, trust me. Right about now they’re probably all
fantasizing about humping you themselves. Which means I’ve got the brainpower
of a high school sophomore, because I’m having the exact same fantasy.”
Was meeting again an unfortunate twist of fate? Or was it just serendipity? Julia McKinnon was convinced she’d found the one – the man of her dreams, the most seductive, experienced lover she’d ever known – and the night they’d spent together in New York was the stuff erotic fantasies were spun from. But with the dawn of a new day came only heartache and betrayal, and her dreams were snuffed out like so much fairy dust. Nathan Atwood felt like the lowest sort of life form after seducing the incredibly beautiful girl he met in New York, only to break her tender heart with the confession that he was already involved with someone else. Leaving Julia was the hardest thing he’d ever done, and the memory of their passionate night together haunted his dreams for months afterwards. Now fate has brought them together again, and they are forced to work alongside each other. Will Julia be able to put aside the feelings she still has for her handsome boss and forge a new life for herself in San Francisco? And how long will Nathan be able to resist the gorgeous woman he’s never really stopped thinking about or wanting?
British hotelier Ian Gregson had it all – wealth, good looks, power, and a share in his family’s worldwide, multi-billion dollar luxury hotel chain. His very name was synonymous with sophistication and elegance, and any woman he wanted could be his with just a look. But the only woman he truly desired was strictly forbidden to him for too many reasons to count. Tessa Lockwood was young, beautiful, and lonely, despite the fact that she was a married woman. Her life had not been an easy one, and the extravagant world she caught glimpses of as an employee of the Gregson Hotel Group was far beyond anything she could ever dream of. She could no more imagine herself ensconced in that sort of luxurious lifestyle than she could attracting the attention of her handsome, debonair boss. Ian and Tessa secretly long for each other from afar, never daring to reveal their forbidden attraction to the other, until circumstances bring them together in a very unexpected way. And from that point on, nothing will stand in Ian’s way to finally make her his. AUTHOR’S NOTE – despite what you might be thinking at this point, there is NO cheating in this story – just an incredibly romantic hero who will make you swoon with the way in which he sweeps the heroine off her feet!
