Synopsis:
Alina Winthrop's only focus is her career as a lawyer at her father’s firm. She has goals to one day takeover, helping countless people when the reins are passed down to her, but there’s a catch. She has to go along with everything her father wants, including marrying a man of his choosing. However, the moment she meets a cocky and intrusive stranger, all bets are off.
Maxton Colter packed up and left his life in California for an opportunity to work at the largest law firm on the East Coast. A new bachelor, he is steadfast in his goal to remain single. Until he sets eyes on a feisty blonde who suddenly has him second-guessing everything.
Will their mutual attraction have a chance to flourish or will their chemistry fizzle before either of them tempts fate?
Excerpt:
When I’d retrieved my cell, I turned back around only to find Max looming in the doorway, his eyes fixated on me in such a way I knew I hadn’t misunderstood the desire in his voice when he’d said my name just moments ago.
His stalked toward me with purpose, every movement of his body orchestrated to drive me insane. Instinctually, I retreated until my back hit the stairwell, trapped and leaving myself open and vulnerable. I struggled between wanting to kick him out of my house and wanting to pull him closer, so close it would be as if we were one.
A few more strides and there would be no turning back. I drew my lower lip between my teeth in an attempt to distract myself, but all I ended up doing was enticing Max.
“You shouldn’t do that,” he warned, edging closer until he stood directly in front of me.
“Do what?”
“Bite your lip. That’s my job.” Max had played around before, teased me to try and garner a reaction with things he’d say, but I knew this was different. He was completely serious. There was no mistaking his intentions.
“I think it’s safer if you leave now.”
The corners of his eyes crinkled. “Safer? For who? You or me?”
“Both of us.”
Instead of taking my half-assed advice, Max planted his hands on the wall behind me, caging me in. He leaned down until his lips were a breath from mine, the air between us melding together.
“Tell me you don’t want me to kiss you. Tell me to stop.” His mouth whispered against mine, so close I felt the tiniest tickle. “Go ahead and lie. Tell me you don’t want me as much as I want you.” As he gently snagged my bottom lip between his teeth, my entire body locked with anticipation. When the tip of his tongue danced over that same lip, I knew the fight was over. The struggle to stay away from him had ended, if only for a brief moment. The one lapse in judgment I’d allow myself.
As soon as a moan escaped from the deepest part of me, he latched on to my mouth and poured all his desire into me. His kiss was all-consuming, awakening me from a sleep I’d been trapped in my entire life.
Our tongues dueled to taste the other, an all too consuming passion the likes I’d never known before. Hands grappled, breaths mingled, hearts pounded fiercely. Reaching up, I ran my hands through his thick hair, grabbing him only to pull him even closer. He moaned, the rumbling vibration tightening the needy ache pulsing between my legs.
No words were exchanged. No promises or denials, just desire in its purest form. Biting and sucking, rough then soft, teasing and tormenting until I could barely stand.
