<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Book Description</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Life lesson number one…</b> If you find the love of your life, fight for him.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Life lesson number two…</b> If you’re dumb enough to let the love of your life go, don’t let years pass without trying to get him back.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Life lesson number three…</b> If he does come back, don’t help him take over your father’s multi-million-dollar company…even if your father had it coming.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I fell in love, had it all, and lost it all in the blink of an eye. I was young, naïve, and not in control of my own life. I was resigned to the fact that I would never see Sam again. So when I attended a meeting with the unknown buyer initiating a hostile takeover of my father’s company, I was stunned and horrified to come face to face with Sam. Only this wasn’t the Sam that I remembered. Gone was the sweet, romantic, kind boy I loved, and in his place was a cold, ruthless, and calculating man. Maybe I was right. Maybe I would never see my Sam again… or would I?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess who called a corrupt kingdom home sweet home. </span></div>
<div class="x_m_-5230738374643646159gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="background-color: white; color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Protected and sheltered from the worst the world had to offer, she fell in love with the crumbling city that burned and blazed around her. Every dirty corner, every scary shadow, found a place within her heart. So did a man who was violent and dangerous, just like the streets she claimed as her own. </span></div>
<div class="x_m_-5230738374643646159gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="background-color: white; color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He was all business and brutality, except when it came to her. With her, he was calm, caring, and heartbreakingly patient.</span></div>
<div class="x_m_-5230738374643646159gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="background-color: white; color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He warned her over and over that he wasn't the man for her, but she refused to listen. She never expected either the streets or their enforcer to hurt her, since she'd given her heart so completely to both.</span></div>
<div class="x_m_-5230738374643646159gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="background-color: white; color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">She should have known the streets in the Point were always going to be savage, and so was the man committed to keeping control of them in the hands of criminals and bloody kingpins. </span></div>
<div class="x_m_-5230738374643646159gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="background-color: white; color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Blindsided by a betrayal which cut so deeply she was sure the wounds would never heal, the princess fled the home she loved and the man who broke her heart. Throwing away her rusted, twisted crown was supposed to help her forget. All it did was make her long for everything she left behind. She told herself she would never go back, but in this tormented kingdom, family is everything. Eventually, she has no choice but to return. </span></div>
<div class="x_m_-5230738374643646159gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="background-color: white; color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">While she was gone, the people who loved her worked hard to make the city safe, and the man who destroyed her sank deeper into the darkness. Going back shouldn't feel like surrender... but it does. As this pretty princess hovers on the edge of the unknown, the past attacks with a vengeance. It's a good reminder that puppy love eventually grows up and turns into something with sharp teeth and one hell of a bite. </span></div>
<div class="x_m_-5230738374643646159gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="background-color: white; color: #212121; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">She never asked for the keys to the kingdom. She'd much rather go out and build her own.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Karsen</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was stuck to the spot, trapped by all the jagged, sharp pieces of my broken fantasies. I wanted to bolt, to run as far away as I could, but I couldn’t move. I felt like the shards would rip me to shreds any direction I turned. Even when the naked woman continued making out with the man of my dreams right in front of me, I was stuck in the same spot. The noises they were making were loud and graphic and all-encompassing. I could hear them echoing in the empty places in my chest where my heart used to be.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Finally, the other woman in the skintight leather skirt and black bra walked over to where I was locked in place. Her hand was light on my arm and she touched me like I was made of glass, even though I wanted to claw her eyes out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I blinked up at her numbly, letting her guide me around and tow me toward the open front door. “Don’t worry, sweetie. There are better guys out there for someone like you. Guys much nicer than the type of guy Booker is…he’s made for women like me. You are still too new, too pristine, honey, and all he’ll do is ruin you.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Everyone said that. I was sick to death of everyone telling me that. I didn’t want someone better for me. I wanted Booker.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I finally gasped, pulling a burning breath into my starved lungs. “Today’s my birthday.” The words came out on a shuddering sob. I have no idea where that came from, why I’d share such an intimate detail with the woman who was next in line for Booker’s dick. I’d stop thinking rationally the second I heard the giggling through the door.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">She made a sympathetic noise and patted my arm. “Happy birthday, honey. You deserve something special.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Roxy. Get back in here. We’re moving to the bedroom.” The other girl’s voice was excited, and I felt her words settle in my stomach like a lead weight.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“I thought he was special.” The words were barely a whisper.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The woman squeezed my arm and I was shocked when she leaned forward and touched her brightly painted lips to my cheek in a kiss that was more like a whisper. I should’ve pushed her away, called her a whore, smacked her across the face…something, anything. But all I could do was watch as her perfect, painted face blurred into a melted blog as tears obscured my vision.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“The fact that you think that proves you’re the special one. Get out of here and go live the kind of life that doesn’t have guys like Booker and girls like me and Rowan in it.” She backed up gently and firmly shut the door in my tear-streaked face.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I don’t know how long I stood outside the door crying and trying to pull myself together. It was long enough to hear laughing voices quiet and disappear as they made their way farther inside the apartment. Once the tears stopped, I used the hem of my t-shirt to wipe away my smeared eye makeup, rubbed away the traces of moisture on my cheeks, and marched back upstairs to Race’s apartment. I wasn’t even all the way through the door before I was telling Brysen I wanted to change colleges. I wanted to go out of state and get as far away from the Point—and from Booker—as possible.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Today was supposed to change everything…and it did. But not in the way anyone expected. Not in the way I’d dreamed about for years.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Right then and there I made the decision that once I left the Point, I had no plans to ever come back. The city simply wasn’t big enough for me and Noah Booker and all the pieces of the heart he broke on my birthday.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Some things in life are undeniable.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Trent Stone’s smile is as rare as a rainy day in California.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">His eyes are the most beautiful thing in the entire universe.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And the two of us are broken.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For years, we had everything. The kind of love that only exists in fairytales. But it slipped through my fingers. I left and I took his heart with me.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That was supposed to be it. The end. Forever.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now, I’m face to face with Trent, staring into those soulful brown eyes, choking on all the things I want to say. My heart is begging for his comfort. My body is begging for his touch. My head… my head knows better.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He hates me for leaving.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But if he knew the truth…</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is one secret I’m taking to my grave.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I just hope it doesn’t kill me.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Book Description</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Reese</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I made a mistake that might have ruined someone’s life. I’ve moved to Sydney to avoid the glares and the questions from the people back home, but there’s one thing I can’t run from—the guilt and pain that follows me relentlessly. All I can do is dull it with alcohol and casual sex. But then my new boss, Mr Dark and Delicious, deserted me, mid kiss, with my skirt hiked up and my shirt discarded on the alley floor. I should hate him―him and the secrets he’s keeping. But I can’t stay away. Because the pain and guilt he’s hiding mirror my own.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Low</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">All she wanted was one night. That, I could do. I’m the king of casual. Love them and leave them, before they leave me. With chemistry off the scale, we couldn’t even make it home, both of us too impatient, ripping each other’s clothes off in the alleyway outside the bar. Then my phone buzzed, and one text message stopped everything. I couldn’t think. Couldn’t breathe. All I could do was run. I’m toxic, but I can’t tell her why. I can’t bear the look of horror I know would cross her face. But I also don’t know how to keep something so life altering from the woman I’m falling for. Not when I need her just to survive it.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I didn’t need anyone to tell me, I knew he was forbidden with a single glance.<br />He was a boy I should be afraid of and definitely a boy I should never want. No matter how much neither of those statements were true.<br /><br />From the first time I saw him, Sebastian had a hard stare that pinned me in place. And, years later, it hasn’t softened.<br /><br />We lived on the same street, went to the same school, though he was a year ahead. Even so close, he was untouchable.<br />He was bad news and I was the sad girl who didn’t belong.<br /><br />One night changed everything. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We both had secrets. We both saw the pain in each other’s eyes. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That gaze that gave me chills, turned to a lust-filled haze that heated every inch of me. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />But that didn’t change who he was. A man who would take everything from me.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I have to be honest here... I didn't feel like this was a complete book. I was left with more questions than answers. This was a quick read and I feel a (vague) intro to Carter's story in Merciless. But I haven't finished reading that series yet. But while the writing wasn't bad, I just felt like this was an incomplete story.</span></div>

Not a doubt in my mind...until I walk into my last class of the semester.<br /><br />Kara, the woman of my dreams, is my new instructor. My hockey season and her career prospects are on the line.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After the unexpected second date, she didn't know my real name or who I really was. By that time, the lie was too far gone, and I wanted her too much to admit the truth.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I shouldn't have agreed to the blind date. My mother insisted, and I wasn’t in any position to turn down a night out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I will admit, I definitely shouldn't have ordered that fourth martini before said blind date even arrived.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The man turned out to be swoon worthy, handsome, condescending—a perfect distraction. Then I found out he was a liar.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I've never been in over my head to this degree.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Then again, I've never been in love.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Excerpt</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I pull up to the front door, and the valet meets me at my door once I stop. “Good evening, sir,” he says once I open my door.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Yeah, I won’t be here long,” I tell him as I get out, not bothering to take off my sunglasses when I hand him the keys.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“No worries, sir. It will be here when you are ready,” he says, handing me the ticket for later. I put it in the inside pocket of my suit jacket. I walk inside to the hostess table, where a woman who looks like she is eighteen stands smiling.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“How may I help you?” she asks sweetly. I stop and look around to see if I might recognize the woman I’m here to meet, even though I’ve never met her. I spot a couple of women at the bar, but I instinctively know they aren’t her. I also check for exits. It’s not my fault; it’s just instilled in me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Looking to the left, I don’t see anyone sitting alone, but then I look to the right, and I see her. I don’t know why I know it’s her, but I just do. With curly long blond hair, she downs a martini, then picks up another one and brings it to her mouth. I spot a waiter walking with two more martinis on his tray, and I’m not surprised when I see him approaching her table. “Great,” I say under my breath. “I found her,” I tell the hostess and start walking toward the table. She spots me and watches my every move. Luckily, the glasses I’m wearing stop her from seeing my eyes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The closer I get to her, the more my pulse speeds up. What the fuck? This is weird. I look around maybe to see if something else is piquing my interest or maybe I spotted something to elevate my pulse, but no, it’s her. The fact that a gorgeous woman is sitting by herself and drinking like a fish is enough to get any man’s adrenaline pumping. Isn’t it?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Are you Laney?” I ask, taking off my glasses, and my gray eyes finally meet her blue ones. She opens her mouth, expecting, I think, something to come out, but nothing does. I continue looking around to see if anyone is watching her, and it’s no surprise that I spot two guys at the bar sizing her up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Here are two more.” The waiter smiles at her, putting two more glasses down on the table and taking the two now empty ones away. She laughs nervously, and I want to reach out and trip him when he walks away.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“It isn’t what it looks like.” Her soft voice breaks me out of my plan, and I turn back to her as she smiles at me, causing my heartbeat to skyrocket. The collar of my shirt suddenly feels tight, but it’s not even buttoned.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Really? I find it hard to believe,” I finally say. Looking around again, I spot the same two guys in suits sitting at the bar watching her. This time, one of them spots me and looks back down at his drink. “It looks like you’re sitting here waiting for something bad to happen.” I pull out the chair and sit in front of her.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Um.” She still doesn’t say anything.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><center style="text-align: left;">
My daddy warned me never to fall for a boy like Jace Jacobs . . .</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
The second I saw him walk through the door, I knew he was trouble.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
A gorgeous rebel with a bad attitude and a huge chip on his shoulder.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
My heart warned me. I didn’t listen. I saw something protective and good beneath the fierce, tough exterior.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I fell hard and fast.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
He promised we’d be together forever, and then left me with a broken heart.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Now, ten years later, Jace Jacobs is standing at my door.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Sexier than he’s ever been.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Provocative and commanding.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Successful and powerful.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
The man I always knew he would become.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
But I promised myself I’d never lose my heart to him again.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Even time couldn’t dim our chemistry. One glance of his intense eyes, and I become weak. One brush of his hand, and he brings me to my knees.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Little do I know, Jace holds the key to everything I’ve lost and everything that threatens my future.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Now he will either save me, or he will break me all over again . . .</center>

What could be worse than catching your creepy boss in an inappropriate position? Hearing him say your name...</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
This day couldn't get any worse for Bailey. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
She just saw her boss Mr. Dent's extremely unimpressive... dent. A night of drinking with her best friend is exactly what she needs. Hunter is always there for her. The perfect Mr. Nice Guy.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">

<center style="text-align: left;">
This day couldn't get any better for Hunter. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
He just saw Bailey’s perfect curves soaped up in the shower and all his dreams are coming true. Until she won't return his calls the next day.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Bailey wants to pretend none of it happened but Hunter just needs one chance to prove their attraction is real. He’s finally going to show her he’s not that...nice.</center>

<u>Wicked</u> is a blend of friends-to-lovers, forbidden office romance and an insta-love between Hunter Richards and Bailey.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Bailey and Hunter met the night before she started her job at Bold Horizons, where office romances were very much frowned upon. So their insta-connection was put on the back-burner. A year later, their friendship has grown to becoming best friends with each hiding their true feelings for each other. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
One day when working late, Bailey heard her boss (Mr. Dent) umm.... pleasuring himself in his office (shouting Bailey's name when he **cough** **cough** completed his activity). Traumatized, Bailey turns to Hunter. Drinks happened and Bailey lets her attraction to come out. Embarrassed by her behavior, she tries to play it off as a drunk night. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
But Hunter disagrees. And he sets out to prove that the attraction and feeling is mutual.</center>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Bodyguard Jock Bosh has one job: keep Fiona Madden safe. Safe from the men who've been hunting her. Safe from the bastard responsible for ruining her life. And with the attraction sizzling white-hot between them, that means keeping Fiona safe from him too.</span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Fiona has spent the past decade on the run. Her survival is the single greatest weapon she's had against the men out to destroy her. Until Jock. Now, with him by her side, she finally has a chance to bring them down. But when her enemies make their next move and Jock puts himself in the line of fire, Fiona realizes that there's more at stake than just her life-she's also risking her heart.</span></center>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This was the first book I've read by Megan Erickson and I hate to say it, but I wasn't impressed. I felt there was no character development. They were boring and stale. Darkest Night is the second book in The Wired and Dangerous series and I have absolutely no desire to go back and read the first book (Zero Hour) or the next book (Final Day) when it comes out.</span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px;">I didn’t need anyone to tell me, I knew he was forbidden with a single glance.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He was a boy I should be afraid of and definitely a boy I should never want. No matter how much neither of those statements were true.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">From the first time I saw him, Sebastian had a hard stare that pinned me in place. And, years later, it hasn’t softened.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">We lived on the same street, went to the same school, though he was a year ahead. Even so close, he was untouchable.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He was bad news and I was the sad girl who didn’t belong.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">One night changed everything. </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">We both had secrets. We both saw the pain in each other’s eyes. </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">That gaze that gave me chills, turned to a lust-filled haze that heated every inch of me. </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">But that didn’t change who he was. A man who would take everything from me.</span></span></div>

He has control over all aspects of his life. But a lifetime of supporting his siblings and filling in for an emotionally absent father has taken its toll.<br /><br />Sloan Montgomery is a clothing stylist whose world was turned upside down when she found herself pregnant and moving to Manchester with a man who was never supposed to be her forever. Now recently divorced and struggling with shared custody of her daughter, control is a fleeting concept for this American living in England.<br /><br />Both Gareth and Sloan are in need of a release.<br /><br />A moment in time where they can forget about their pasts and family pressures...and just...<br /><br />…surrender.<br /><br />No one could predict what happens when both of their defenses are down.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is my first Amy Daws book. Obviously that means that I haven't read any of the other Harris Family books. That being said, I don't feel that it is a necessity in order to follow Gareth and Sloan's story. <u>Surrender</u> is part one of a duet (with <u>Dominate</u> coming out Aug. 2, so you won't have a long wait). If cliffhangers aren't your cup of tea, then you'll only have to wait a couple weeks to pick put both books. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I don't want to give to much of the story line away. These are interesting and complex characters that I feel deserve to tell their own story (without me meddling). In fact, Gareth and Sloan are probably my favorite characters I've read in a while. I've enjoyed reading other books and their characters, but Gareth and Sloan stood out to me and I will definitely remember them when they are done.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I can't wait to read the conclusion of their story in Dominate and thankfully we don't have to long to wait!! </span><br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>From #1 New York Times Bestseller Vi Keeland, comes a new, sexy standalone novel.</b></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It was just a typical Monday.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Until the big boss asked me to make the pitch for a prospective new client.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After two years on shaky ground at work because of my screw up, an opportunity to impress the senior partners was just what I needed. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Or so I thought…</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Until I walked into the conference room and collided with the man I was supposed to pitch.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My coffee spilled, my files tumbled to the ground, and I almost lost my balance.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And that was the good part of my day.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Because the gorgeous man crouched down and looking at me like he wanted to eat me alive, was none other than my ex, Gray Westbrook.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A man who I’d only just begun to move on from.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A man who my heart despised—yet my body obviously still had other ideas about.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A man who was as charismatic and confident as he was sexy.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Somehow, I managed to make it through my presentation ignoring his intense stare. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Although it was impossible to ignore all the dirty things he whispered into my ear right after I was done.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But there was no way I was giving him another chance, especially now that he was a client</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">…was there?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Sneak Peak:</b></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“May I get you something to drink while you wait for the rest of your party?” the waiter asked.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I would normally wait to see what the client did and follow his lead on alcohol. But tonight was not the norm.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I rubbed at my stiff neck. “I’ll take a vodka cranberry, please.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I hoped it would help calm my nerves and release some of the tension in my jaw before I gave myself a full-blown headache. Taking out my phone, I started to scroll through emails to distract myself while waiting for my drink and dinner companion.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My head whipped up at the sound of Gray’s voice behind me. “Sorry I’m late.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My heart unexpectedly fluttered, and I fought against the feeling of excitement. “Are you really? Because I get the sense you don’t have any manners after the way you interrupted me a million times today.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He completely ignored my attitude as he took the seat across from me. “Traffic is a bitch getting downtown at this time. Next time we’ll have dinner at my place.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“There won’t be a next time.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Gray’s mouth curved into a smug smile as he snagged my gaze. “Sure there will. There’ll be plenty of next times. And eventually you’ll stop pretending you don’t enjoy my company.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I hated that my body reacted to him. Right from the very start, we’d had a crazy chemistry between us that was difficult to dull.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I sighed. “What are you doing, Gray? Why did you come to my firm?”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He lifted the cloth napkin in front of him and laid it across his lap. “Isn’t that obvious? I need new legal representation.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“At my firm? And you’d prefer that representation come from an associate instead of my boss’s boss—the head of our securities division? Or even from Pittman, who would gladly hold your hand and provide you whatever legal advice you need from his fifty-plus years of experience?”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Loyalty is important to me. I want someone I can trust with my business.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“And you’ve decided that’s me? An associate with five years experience who just got off probation with the Bar Association for violating attorney-client privilege?”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The waiter arrived with my drink. “Here you go, ma’am.” He turned to Gray. “May I get you something to drink? Or would you like to wait until the last of your party joins you this evening?”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“It’s just the two of us. I’ll have a Macallan, neat, please.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Coming right up.” The waiter walked around to the other side of the table and started to remove the third place setting.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I put my hand out, stopping him. “We actually do have another party coming, so you can leave that.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Very well.” He nodded.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Gray waited until the waiter was out of earshot. “I didn’t invite anyone else to dinner.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I sipped my drink and offered a saccharine-sweet fake smile. “I did. Figured an important client like you should have more than one attorney to answer his questions.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Just as I set down my glass, I saw the other man I was waiting for enter the restaurant. He scanned the room, looking for me, so I held up my hand and waved.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“Perfect timing. There’s Oliver now.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Gray glanced at the man heading toward us and back to me. Instead of being pissed off, the jerk was amused. “That’s cute. You invited a chaperone because you don’t trust yourself with me.”</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Four years ago, I left my heart behind in Colorado, the place I thought I’d always call my home. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My arms ached to hug my parents and siblings. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My mind bled with the possibilities that I’d left behind. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My heart hurt with the reason I had to leave in the first place. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Who knew coming back home would be so hard?</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I did. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Which is why I hadn’t returned until my mother insisted on throwing me a graduation party. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The memories were too much to bear. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The heartache still weighed heavy on my heart. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One man caused my life to tilt on its axis and never to regain its footing. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now that I was home, I had one more tough choice to make. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If only he would allow me that opportunity. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If only he knew how to leave well enough alone. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If only he didn’t insist on finding a way to bring me back here. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If only…</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Words like unnatural and impure started the whispers.</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">From the very beginning, Ivy Blackwood was different. She was only a child when she was accused of setting the fire, one she passively watched engulf the small house she had called home. Her fingertips burned and her hair singed. Some who watched her crossed themselves, convinced she was soulless for she showed no emotion at all. Calm and dispassionate, even when the screaming started that quickly turned to bellows of agony before dying into nothing but the roaring of the fire.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">She was locked away where she couldn’t bring harm to herself or others. To all involved, they had protected the world from a monster, but sometimes things are not what they seem.</span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The Press labeled me campuses “DIRTY PLAYER.”</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The scandal I'm caught in just made the national news, ESPN, & Sports Illustrated.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Forced to hide out in a small beach town until I can clear my name, the last thing I expected was to run into her. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Even my killer smile, panty-melting grin, and cut abs aren't reeling her in.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">She ran.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Ten years ago, Whitney Gable caught me off guard with her long legs and grab-you-by-the-balls blue eyes.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I didn’t know or care what her name was.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Like any Riscoff worth the family name, I went after what I wanted. We burned like a flash fire until she married another man.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">She hates me, and she should.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I objected on her wedding day.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now she’s home, with those same long legs and man-eater stare, but there’s no ring on her finger.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">They say a Riscoff and a Gable can never live happily ever after . . . but I’m not done with Whitney Gable.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’ll never be done with her.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>From Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller Vivian Wood</b></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Cynic. F*ck up. Outsider. </b></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That’s Jameson in a nutshell - not to mention <i>drool-worthy</i>, <i>dreamy</i>, and <i>perfect fantasy object</i>.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He’s also my older brother’s best friend and business partner.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I’ve had a thing for Jameson ever since I was old enough to have dirty dreams. My brother has made it crystal clear that if he catches rough, wrong-side-of-the-tracks Jameson even looking at me, someone will get hurt.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That doesn’t deter me, though. I want Jameson to be my first.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And that’s why my brother can never find out what happened.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Because Jameson kissed me.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">No -- not kissed -- he shoved me up against a wall, possessed me, and took my breath away. Then he promptly passed out in my bed, wasted.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now I know that Jameson wants me. I may be off limits because of my brother, but that kiss is branded in my mind.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I need another taste of Jameson.</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica" , serif , "emojifont";"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I crave his brutal touch. Pinned against the wall, gasping at the feel of his body pressed against mine, crying out in pleasure and pain while he gives me everything I’ve dreamed about.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

The Press labeled me campuses “DIRTY PLAYER.”</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
The scandal I'm caught in just made the national news, ESPN, & Sports Illustrated.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">

<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Forced to hide out in a small beach town until I can clear my name, the last thing I expected was to run into her. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">

<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Literally.</center>

<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
First, she stole my breath, then my heart. But she wants nothing to do with me. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Even my killer smile, panty-melting grin, and cut abs aren't reeling her in.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
She ran.</center>

I have six weeks to find my mystery girl, get my reputation back, and prove to her I’m not a dirty player: I’m her prince. The football field is the domain I where I rule, but her heart is the next thing I’m going to capture.</center>

<b>EXCERPT</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
What the heck?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I almost trip on a pile of clothes. Pausing, I look in all directions. There’s no one else here. But then out in the water, under a beam of blinding moonlight, a dark head bobs.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Crazy idiot. Sharks feed at night.” I shake my head. Looking back down, I grin recognizing the gray hoodie.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
It can’t be.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Gingerly, I bend down, taking it in my hands.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
It smells like him.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
My breasts tingle, thighs ache. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
With no one to see me, I press it to my nose and close my eyes. The fragrance industry sure knows what they’re about. My hormones are driving the bus, and I’m tempted to strip my clothes off and ride that pony swimming in the moonlight.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
But I don’t.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I have a better idea instead.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Snagging the rest of his clothing, I jog away from the surf and towards the dunes covered in shadows.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“HEY!” He calls out swimming furiously towards shore.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
But summer boy doesn’t know these beach paths as I do. He doesn’t stand a chance.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Especially naked.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
But how could I know he’s as fast as an Olympian?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
He tackles me from behind—I fall, face planted in the sand. His clothes acting as a barricade saves my face from sand scrapes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“What the hell?” He mutters, turning me over.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Fanny pack?”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Um… hi?”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Well, this is interesting.” He smiles down on me, elbows planted in the sand on either side of my body. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Oddly, I’m not afraid of being pinned down in the moonlight by this handsome stranger—until—it dawns on me he’s naked as the day he was born. Something hard rocks into the cradle between my hips causing me to gasp as he shifts his weight.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Sorry,” he rolls to the side for a second giving me room to get up. “Fuck it. I’m not sorry.” He rolls back on top of me, tracing a finger over my stunned, parted lips. “I made a wish on a star tonight. Haven’t done that since I was ten. And here you are, showing up here like a thief in the moonlight. Technically, you are a thief. Maybe I should call the cops on you, baby?”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I can’t answer. It’s happening to me again, and I’m helpless to stop it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I’m drowning on dry land, star gazing into his eyes as his head lowers a breath from mine. “Thank you for turning the shittiest day I ever had, into the best one,” he murmurs capturing my lips.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Instinctually, my thighs open, womb wanting to cradle his hips and invite him inside.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“So sweet,” he murmurs against my lips a second before his tongue boldly comes out to play with mine. “But you won’t be needing this.” With a smirk, he unclasps the buckle to my fanny pack tossing it next to my sneakers that dropped when he caught me. His lips never leave mine. He does this so smoothly and skillfully as if seduction is his profession.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Elliott never kissed me like this. Hell, I doubt even Jamie Dornan can kiss like this. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
My hands clutch his head, nails raking through his hair as I hungrily kiss him back.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
His hands come up under my shirt, never breaking our kiss. I hiss at the spot on my ribs where the pavement scraped me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
He lowers his head to inspect the marks his hands feel.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Did I do this baby?”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
My reply is a gasp as he trails a fire of kisses along my ribcage up to my breasts. He unclasps the front snap bra I put on, and my breasts spring free from confinement.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Christ, you’re beautiful,” he moans, worshiping my breasts with his wet tongue, licking and sucking them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
He rolls back on his heels one arm around my back to lift me closer to his hungry mouth. The large palm on his other hand presses my breasts together so that he can suck both nipples at the same time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Oh. My. God.” My voice sounds crazy even to my ears. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I’m on fire. My clit’s swollen, my body’s primed and ready to go.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I feel his smile against my skin as he drops one hand, cupping my sex hard. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I nearly break my nose on his chin as my body jolts like it’s been struck by a live wire.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“What is it.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Huh?” I’m lost at sea. Hungry, weak and completely disoriented by his mad voodoo make out skills.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“You’re name, cupcake.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
My eyes lower to his dick. He’s unashamed, almost proud of it as he catches me dropping my eyes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
It’s beautiful.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I’ve never thought dicks were beautiful. Maybe I cracked my head on the concrete.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The man must be thirteen or fourteen hard inches, and he’s thick as fuck. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“It fits.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“What?”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“My size. It’s proportionate to my body.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
My face flames. Am I really taking to the stranger who almost killed me about his dick size? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Shaking my head, I curse myself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Nope.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“What?”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“This is not happening,” I gesture between the two of us.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Why not?” He whispers looking, hurt?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Because,” I answer standing up and brushing the sand from my legs, “last time I was out here with a naked guy behind the dunes it didn’t end well.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Did he hurt you?” His fists clench as he stands.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Not that way… although, I can attest that having sex on sand is not as hot as you’d think.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
He cocks an eyebrow, “Oh, fanny. We’d burn so hot—the ocean would catch fire.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
He grabs his shorts and turns around. I bite my lip. His ass is just as fine as the rest of him. Every muscle is cut, lines delineating each part.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Before I can think, I swipe his shirt and take off.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
“Fanny? Are you running again?” He laughs behind me. “I don’t need to chase you when we have a habit of running into one another.”</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
And honestly, I’m not running from him. I’m running from myself.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="font-size: 15px;">From Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller Vivian Wood</strong><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><strong style="font-size: 15px;">Cynic. F*ck up. Outsider. </strong><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">That’s Jameson in a nutshell - not to mention </span><em style="font-size: 15px;">drool-worthy</em><span style="font-size: 15px;">, </span><em style="font-size: 15px;">dreamy</em><span style="font-size: 15px;">, and </span><em style="font-size: 15px;">perfect fantasy object</em><span style="font-size: 15px;">.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He’s also my older brother’s best friend and business partner.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I’ve had a thing for Jameson ever since I was old enough to have dirty dreams. My brother has made it crystal clear that if he catches rough, wrong-side-of-the-tracks Jameson even </span><em style="font-size: 15px;">looking</em><span style="font-size: 15px;"> at me, someone will get hurt.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">That doesn’t deter me, though. I want Jameson to be my </span><em style="font-size: 15px;">first</em><span style="font-size: 15px;">.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">And that’s why my brother can never find out what happened.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">Because Jameson kissed me.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">No -- not kissed -- he shoved me up against a wall, </span><em style="font-size: 15px;">possessed</em><span style="font-size: 15px;"> me, and took my breath away. Then he promptly passed out in my bed, wasted.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">Now I know that Jameson wants me. I may be off limits because of my brother, but that kiss is branded in my mind.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I </span><em style="font-size: 15px;">need</em><span style="font-size: 15px;"> another taste of Jameson.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I crave his brutal touch. Pinned against the wall, gasping at the feel of his body pressed against mine, crying out in pleasure and pain while he gives me everything I’ve dreamed about.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><strong style="font-size: 15px;">As long as my brother doesn’t catch on, Jameson might just give me exactly what I want… and a whole hell of a lot more.</strong></span></div>

<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 15px;"> </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px;">“A penny for your thoughts?”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I swear every time he talks to me my heart just about explodes out of my chest. Jamie’s voice is so different. It’s changed. It’s deeper and rumbly, and it makes me think and imagine things that I don’t usually go out of my way to think about let alone imagine. It makes my belly do acrobatics and my mouth water.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">How is that possible? How can his voice alone do that to me?</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“Are you still angry with me?” He asks as he sits on the edge of the hot tub my parents had installed on the first floor balcony.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">It’s such a pretty view. The water and the trees that surround one side of it with all the beautiful grey, white and light blue lake houses that line it in a cosy and enclosed U. You can just make out the green rolling hills surrounding us with the large church spire just about breaking the treeline. It’s just so wonderfully beautiful.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“I’m not upset with you,” I hear myself reply even though I am a little.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">To be honest I think I’m a little more heartbroken that he’s leaving than I am angry. I was so looking forward to having Jamie around at Oxford, but he’s going to do an Overseas Exchange to UCLA so he can learn from some great minds like Doctor Wilson Weller—a teaching and practicing Neurosurgery god. Or whatever Jamie calls him. Phillip decided to stay close to home at UCL even though he got an offer to Oxford just like Jamie and Richard did three years ago. He doesn’t want to leave his new girlfriend, Jamie’s sister and one of my best friends, behind. I think I’m a little bit jealous of them, even if am happy for them. Jamie is just coming round to the idea, and I know that the only reason why he came to find me is probably because he still doesn’t know how to handle them being so touchy and lovey dovey with one another.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“You’re not?” He shuffles closer until the side of his thigh touches mine.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">His legs are different too. They have a light smattering of hair that kind of matches his chest and the trail down from his navel. I can’t help but run my eyes down his slightly defined torso and down the light trail of fuzz that leads down to the top of his shorts, all the way down his shorts to his thighs and knees.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I’m so distracted by all his golden skin that I don’t even realise how fast my heart is beating until I feel the hammering in my chest pulsing up my neck to the back of my throat.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><em style="font-size: 15px;"> Seriously?</em><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">My skin heats as he wraps his arm around my bare shoulders. His thumbs lightly strumming the string holding my bikini top up around my neck. It’s like the sun shines brighter in that moment and the UV rays become laser strong and solely focused on me.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“Then why did you throw the Uni hamper we gave you in the bin?”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“Because it’s stupid. I don’t need wine and condoms and…”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“You say that now, but when you get there you’ll be thankful. You don’t want to be caught short, the dial-a-condom service isn’t as discreet or anonymous as you think.”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“Guys don’t even look at me like that.” I shrug.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He goes super still next to me. His arm becomes slightly heavier on my shoulders and his thumb tucks under the halter neck string of my red bikini top. He clears his throat and I can hear his Adam’s apple bob as he swallows.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“Quincy, that’s not true. Believe me, my sisters have made it a point to tell me every chance they get.”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He pulls me closer to him so that I have no other option but to rest my head on his shoulder.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“Why would they do that?” I mumble into the soft skin of his shoulder.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">It’s shiny and taught. It wraps flawlessly around his lean muscled arms with the odd sun freckle here and there. He smells briny and citrusy. A combination of his cologne, sweat and the lake water.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I inhale deeply as his shoulders shake with humour.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">Wait, why is he laughing at me?</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“Why are you laughing at me?”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He clears his throat again before he sighs, “You have no idea.”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“No idea of what?”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">Our eyes lock as I look up at him. His bright blue eyes are like ocean blue sparkling glass as the sun lights them up. They have these silvery grey flecks that bleed to the edges of his irises and form these thin dark rings that are only marginally lighter than his pupil.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">“You’re so pretty…so beautiful…”</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">It’s like he can read my mind and steal the words on the tip of my tongue as he reaches for my hair with his hand and wraps it with my long tresses.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">And if my heart wasn’t already hammering into my ribcage it’s now batter ramming its way out like it’s trying to break free or get closer to his heart.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I don’t know. All I know is that I can’t actually say anything. I can’t verbalise with the way that he’s looking at me. The way his eyes are eating up every inch of my face and the way they flitter down to my chest and then up to my lips.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">His wet and shiny pink tongue darts out and moistens his lower lip before he draws said lip in with his teeth and bites down so hard that the blood and colour drain around the trenches his teeth have made.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I can’t help but mimic him with my own tongue and lips and teeth. He gasps lightly and as my eyes meet his again the pupils are so big that there is only a perfectly slim ring of silver speckled cerulean surrounding them. And I can’t breathe. The air feels too hot and dry. And thick? Why does the air feel so thick? It feels like I’m filling my lungs with invisible oil. My lungs feel so full that they have to push the air back out in deep and long unsteady breaths.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">The arm around my shoulders falls and he brings his hand up to cup my cheek. And I know what’s happening because I’ve seen it in films and I’ve seen other people around us kiss. I can even kind of picture it in my mind—what we must look like right now. But I still can’t quite comprehend why he’s coming closer to me. Why his breathing is just as manic as mine. I can’t understand why he’s about to kiss me with wide eyes and desperate breaths. The hand in my hair tugs slightly and my face tilts marginally so that our lips touch.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><em style="font-size: 15px;">Oh, God.</em><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">His warm lips are so soft and so tender as they brush over mine and I want to throw my arms around his neck, straddle his lap and just fucking devour him.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">Fuck, I’m like some lust crazed person.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I don’t even know how I manage to stay so still with all those thoughts and all the electricity zapping through me.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I don’t know what to do next. If I should open my mouth or lick his lips. Whether I should touch him. I want to touch. I am touching him.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He’s groaning as he licks my lips and as my hands hold on to his waist so tight that my nails bite into his flesh. But then it’s not just my nails biting into his skin, it’s his teeth sinking into my lower lip. It’s his hand cupping my face so hard that I know it should hurt, I know that it’ll leave a mark, but I don’t care because it feels so fucking good. It’s his fingers weaving so tightly into my hair that the sting makes me want to pull on his hair too.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I can’t help the strangled moan that escapes my mouth as he slips his tongue inside and licks my own.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I’ve never kissed or been kissed like this before and even though I’m unpracticed and new to this, my hands seem to be in the know as they travel brazenly down his sides to the top of his swimming shorts and as unsure as I am, I know that I want to slip my hands under the elastic and become acquainted with every last inch of his sexy skin.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">Shit, I don’t think I’ve ever used that word to describe another person, let alone a boy…a man. Jamie.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">He grumbles a shallow growl right at the back of his throat as my fingertips skim around the navy elastic of his shorts. His tongue licks deeper and twirls around mine.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I want more. I want to tell him that I want it too, but I don’t want to stop kissing him back and I have this unsure tightness in chest that makes me bashful and fearful that he’d reject me anyway.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I want him to touch me in ways that I’ve only heard other girls boast and brag that they’d been touched. I want his mouth and his tongue to taste a lot more than just my own.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">Before I even realize it we’re both standing in the middle of the warm, soft rolling water and his hands are squeezing my bum cheeks to the point that I think they’ll leave bruises. And it makes me feel excited in ways that I’ve never felt before and it makes me feel like a livewire.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">All this and he never stops our kiss. His tongue tastes mine with a ferocity that feels like years of need all at once. I rove my hands up his sides and his back, relishing the feel of his muscles pulling and tightening under his hot skin. By the time my hands round to his chest and travel up to his hair our bodies are completely flush and my boobs feel even bigger and heavier than they already are. My nipples feel sore like they’re being pinched and pulled and there’s this familiar, yet new ache that’s building between my legs and the bubbling water is only making that ache stronger whilst making it feel better at the same time.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><span style="font-size: 15px;">I’ve never felt the arousal of a man, but I can feel his and it’s pressing deliciously to my lower belly. I feel the heat creep up my neck and flush my cheeks and all I want to do is find a way of getting closer. My fingers tighten their grip in his sun bleached brown hair and I can’t help but pull him down to me, even as I feel him softly pull away.</span><br style="font-size: 15px;" /><em style="font-size: 15px;">No. Please don’t stop.</em></span></span></center>
