Excerpt...
“I
wish I could give you a guarantee that I won’t bolt…but it’s all so damn
confusing. I confuse myself these days.” She grabbed the apple from him before
he could take another bite and tossed it aside. “So we’re both a little
dangerous...maybe that’s a good thing.”
“Something
like two negatives making a positive? Something like that?” He frowned, his
gaze dropping to her mouth. “Are you sure?”
“Absolutely.”
She slid her hand over his skin, undoing the only two buttons that he’d managed
to fasten. “Know what I want to do to you?” She dragged her gaze from his chest
to his eyes. “Know what I want you to do to me?”
“Damn
it, Lauren. My self-control is gone so—”
“Good.
You won’t need it.” She kissed his neck while she pushed the shirt from his
shoulders. She wanted more, needed more. She slipped her tongue into his mouth
and unzipped his shorts.
She
couldn’t get enough of his hard body against hers. She wanted her legs around
his hips, wanted him screwing her brains out while she sunk her teeth into his
shoulder. Reckless energy fueled her passion...and it felt damn good.
He
pressed her against a palm tree and pinned her hands above her head. “You’re
sure you want this?”
“I
want you. Now. Here.” She looped her bare foot around the back of his leg and
nipped his chin. “But no promises, okay? I don’t want any promises.”
From the back cover...
One violent night shatters Lauren Biltmore’s life. As an
anchorwoman, she's accustomed to reporting the news rather than being the lead
story. She escapes the spotlight by fleeing to her brother's home in the
Cayman Islands. Haunted by nightmares, all she wants is a distraction from
reality.
Distraction arrives via sexy screenwriter, Noah Reynolds.
His take-me-to-bed looks mask a past ripe with scandal. He knows he should stay
away from Lauren, especially when the worst night of her life unlocks his
writer's block and while he's dealing with a stalker of his own, but ethics are
his weakness.
Attraction sizzles beneath Caribbean sunshine. As their
relationship grows, Noah's stalker intensifies her torment. Lauren wonders if
her paranoia is justified or a carryover from her past. What's real? What's
imagined? Tentative trust is tested as their love is swept up against a
riptide of deceit, murder, and revenge.
