Excerpt
| He smiles at me then, and it’s the most brilliant smile I’ve seen on his face yet. He reaches his hand across the table at me, and I release my napkin to take it. “Now that that’s out of the way, tell me your secret.” “My secret?” I ask in confusion. “The secret you said you would tell me maybe someday,” he reminds me while stroking his thumb over the back of my hand. “Oh, that,” I say with immediate understanding. “It’s not all that interesting.” “It must be if it’s a secret,” he prompts. “It’s not really a secret. It’s public knowledge, just not something I talk about.” “Yet, you told Brody about it.” “He’s my friend… my closest.” “I’m betting Brody was never as close to you as I was this morning… when I was deep inside your body.” I pull my hand away and glare at him. “Why do you always try to shock me with your sexual innuendos?” “Love,” Gavin drawls in that sexy, English accent. “That wasn’t innuendo. That was pure fact… I was deep inside your body this morning, feeling every inch of your sweet pussy surrounding me.” “Stop it,” I hiss at him across the table. He leans back in his chair slowly, giving me a calculated smile. Drumming his fingers on the table, he says, “It’s time for you to stop being shy with me, Sweet. I know you inside and out now.” “You don’t know anything about me,” I counter. “I know plenty. I know you’re unbelievably sweet, kind, and caring. I know you have an amazing work ethic. I know you’re smart and funny, and you’re fucking sexy as hell. I also know that you’re a risk taker and that you are nothing like I first thought you were. I know you’re private and timid, but when you get angry, you stand up for yourself. I know your body feels amazing wrapped around me, and I know that I want to feel it again… tonight as a matter of fact. I know that I love to hear you scream in pleasure, and I know my cock is aching for you right this very minute. If I thought you’d let me, I’d pull you into the bathroom right now and fuck you standing in one of the stalls, hopefully while someone came in, and we’d have to be very quiet so as not to get caught. And I know… without a doubt, you’d scream anyway, regardless of the danger.” Heat courses through my body, along with gratification that he does know quite a bit about me already. That means he was looking at far more than just my tits and ass, and he has found appreciation outside of those things that normally a man would notice about a woman. “Now, tell me your secret,” he commands. |

She’s running in place and getting nowhere…

He’s raw, forceful and a dirty talker. She’s a flowers and romance type of girl. Yet within each other, they find a mutual craving that can only be satisfied by giving in to their desires for one another.

Today Best-Selling author, Sawyer Bennett, is a snarky southern woman
and reformed trial lawyer who decided to finally start putting on paper
all of the stories that were floating in her head. She is married to a
mobster (well, a market researcher) and they have two big, furry dogs
who hog the bed. Sawyer would like to report she doesn’t have many
weaknesses but can be bribed with a nominal amount of milk chocolate.Website: www.sawyerbennett.com
