She hiccupped as she sipped it. “Is someone a little drunk?” he asked. “Who, me?” she asked, pointing to herself. “You wouldn’t want me to take advantage of you?” “Would you do that?” “We wolves are sometimes very cunning.” He kissed the side of her face before running his tongue along her earlob...
She heard him walking about in the hallway and didn’t want to risk running into him in those shorts again so she stayed safely in her room. Not that she hadn’t admired the wonderful view last night. She’d done that and a whole lot more. But then she’d felt embarrassed when she hadn’t been able t...
I’m never usually impulsive, never take the lead, but let the guy follow. So why now? Come on, isn’t it obvious? The man’s gorgeous with a capital G. That’s why. He kissed her back, prying open her mouth with the tip of his tongue so it could slip over the threshold and tease her own. The fishing...
He drew circles over her butt with the soapy sponge. The liquid dripped down her legs, making her feel horny all over again. “When did you get the tattoo?” he asked, drawing his finger around the outline of the rose on the small of her back. “Almost a year ago. I thought I’d do something wild whe...
This was heaven. Aiden’s kiss had been blissful too. She set her head back on the inflated bath pillow at the base of her neck still thinking about what had happened in her office, and not just the kiss. Why would anyone want to steal a dirty tissue unless it was because of the blood on it? The b...
She looked at the screen and saw it was Dane calling. “Hi, Dane.” “I thought I’d make you the first person I’d share my good news with. I got the job at the school.” “That’s great. I’m so happy for you.” “I start on Wednesday and I have a favor to ask you.” “Sure go ahead.” “There’s an open house...
Maureen had gone shopping, but Katlin had asked to come and see Barney. Christopher had fallen big time for both mother and daughter, and once Katlin went back to Oregon with Maureen, he was going to sit Lilly down and tell her all about himself. Where he’d come from, what...
She turned over swiftly, but he’d seen her eyes become glazed. He knew her well enough to sense she was on the brink of tears. Wade didn’t think she’d be that upset at the thought of getting pregnant. Was it just having a baby in general she didn’t like or just the thought of having his? &n...
He rested his palm of the fridge door as he looked at Eva and downed half the bottle. “I never thought having sex could make you this thirsty,” he said. She reached up and ran her finger down the side of his face where a bead of sweat had parked itself. He put the bottle on the countertop and lea...
Both his hands were shaking. Trembling so badly he could hardly turn the steering wheel to head onto the road leading to the Dubois ranch. He was sensible enough to know that the shakes weren’t caused by caffeine overload. Truth be told, he was as nervous as hell about seeing her face to face aga...
There were so many cute outfits, and she wanted to buy them all for her granddaughter. She found the pink and white checked dress again along with a matching hat. A man’s hand grabbed her bottom and squeezed her right ass cheek. “I don’t think it will fit you,” Jon said close to her ear. He still...
I asked my mother the following morning after I’d seen Lily onto the school bus. I had, of course, checked with Lily first. She’d jumped at the chance to spend a whole night with Grans and Granspop. “You going on another assignment?” “No, I…” “You and the cowboy want some time alone.” “Yes.” “I’m...
asked Thom."About what?” asked Connor, setting his beer bottle on the table."Your house guest. She's very pretty.""Oh, yes, she is, very,” said Connor, rubbing his hands together in front of the heater. He knew the questions would start coming soon. He was just surprised his brothers had waited t...
I stepped out and gave the driver the usual orders of returning for me in two hours. I waited until he was out of sight and then put on my mask before I made a dash for the door. Once again the same girl answered it, and I wondered if others frequented the club as often as me. &...
Normally, he or Rory played midwife, but this baby was refusing to come into the world without some expert help, and they’d had to call in the vet. If the calf, or at least the vet, didn’t hurry things along, he’d be late collecting Emily from his mom’s café. He’d promised her they’d then go sho...
Well, I hope something does happen in Vegas. Katy closed her carry-on bag and glanced out of the window. Cash had just driven into the parking spot outside her condo. She checked everything was switched off, the electric kettle and the iron she’d used to take the wrinkles out of her dress. Her mo...
He’d heard a woman screaming, and it hadn’t been in his dreams. Cass. He leapt out of bed and ran across the hallway to her room, but the bed was empty. He heard sobbing coming from his art studio. Whatever was she doing in there at this time of night? Rory ran down the hall. Flinging the door ba...
Just five weeks in business and my niece had fucked things up big time. She’d delivered the sandwiches to the baby shower and the goodies intended for that client—complete with finger sandwiches, cupcakes in the shape of baby bottles and booties, and oh, yes, let’s not forget the large pink frost...
He’d gained some confidence from his first time doing this, but now the nerves were back. He took a deep breath and willed himself out of the car. He walked up the driveway and before letting himself get sidetracked with reasons why he shouldn’t be doing this, he rang the doorbell. A man who appe...
Even from outside, she could smell something delicious cooking. She’d missed lunch because a dog had been hit by a car and brought in by the driver. Lucky for the dog they’d gotten him to her surgery in time. Apart from a broken leg that Eve was confident would be as good as new in a month or so,...
He nodded to him, and it was time to put their plan into action. He noticed Maisey was talking to two other women. He stood up and walked over to her. “I love this song and I’m looking for a partner to dance with me.” He put out his hand to her. At first he thought she was going to turn him down ...
Those two words played in my mind all night. I couldn’t sleep, wondering what was in that program. Naked hunks or even pirates. I hadn’t slept for more than an hour before taking the first train to Private Pleasures. I was raring to get going soon after they opened for business. I fol...
The dancing with April had shown him the operation and recovery had taken a toll on him. April, he still was smiling thinking about her cute face and how happy she looked. How she’d talked non-stop in the truck on the way home and then wouldn’t settle down and go to bed once she got home. A coupl...
She did feel somewhat guilty about spying on him. She worried he might think she was a stalker. With his looks and money, he’d probably had his share of those. She was, however, relieved he wasn’t traveling here so often because he had another woman tucked away somewhere. Not that she thought she...
The wolves were howling again. She wanted to go to bed, but couldn’t muster up the courage to go the short distance from Liam’s place to the apartment. Her leg felt better, but she didn’t think she’d be up to running if the situation arose. Irrational fear. She knew that. It wasn’t as if wolves ...
“I am right here on the pavement should you run into any trouble,” he said. I leaned over and kissed him before hurrying inside. It was not the MP’s house but his private place to meet me for our weekly appointment. Once again he was a creature of habit. He would be already nude...
Today he looked positively irresistible. His hair was a little unkempt and he hadn’t shaven. “This is so good and excuse me for talking with my mouth full,” he said. She’d made him a salad of roasted salmon and sweetened cranberries tossed together with field greens and her own teriyaki dressing....
“How you doing?” I asked her. She yawned before answering. “You wouldn’t believe how tired I am today. I think this little guy’s going to put in an early appearance so you better be prepared to take over as boss sooner than we’d planned.” “I can’t wait to meet this baby boy.” “Me too and I can’t ...
Since he’d woken up, his sense of smell and hearing had grown sharper. He peeked around the edge of the tree and saw Sadie walking back with a pink raincoat slung over her forearm. Shit, just what I needed to wear, he thought, but beggars couldn’t be picky. “Don’t come any farther,” he said, hol...
This is the story of my first re-gift, and I hope, it’s not my last one…. Janice slid a gold envelope across the table. She’d invited me to lunch at her country club. It was the first time I’d been there. The place was pretty impressive with its over the top gold furnishings complete with a water...
I watched a movie on my tablet while I sat in bed. I turned off the light but was still wide awake an hour later. I switched on the light, tried to read a book I’d been struggling to finish, but a noise outside got my attention. After quickly getting out of bed, I walked to the window and pushed ...
He couldn’t risk upsetting her by not staying over, so he’d come up with a lie. He’d never been one to do that sort of thing, but it was for her own sake. “Nina just called and said the furnace is acting up again, so I’m going to go take a look.” “Okay, are you coming back because I rented a DVD ...

said Dane standing to address the group. Nick had contacted Aiden Renner as soon as he’d left Ava’s motel room and they’d called an emergency meeting for the following morning. “Don’t think that, don’t ever think that,” said Trent Burgress, pulling Dane back down and forcing him to sit on the cha...
The paintings on the wall reminded him it wasn’t on his roof but Evie’s. Last night hadn’t been a dream. They’d had a romantic dinner, come back to her place, made love, and then read to one another before they’d both drifted off to sleep. He yawned and turned over in bed hoping to see Evie’s cut...
Luckily the limo was still in her driveway. Her last patient had been twenty minutes late and she’d driven home well over the speed limit. The driver had been waiting twenty minutes now, so she quickly threw some items into her rolling suitcase. As usual her mother had given her a book on sexual ...
Take for example my BFF, Shannon. Shannon was supposed to teach Introduction to Baking at the local cooking school but got a better offer a week before the class was scheduled to begin. Who could pass up an offer to cater to the rich and famous in the Hamptons? I know I wouldn’t have done. “You c...
She’d tried to sleep when Ryan had left but been unable to. He’d stirred something within her she’d never felt before. She was inexperienced in such things, still a virgin but she sensed it was something sexual. When he’d entered the room her nipples had puckered, pulling so tight that they’d sud...
He hadn’t thought that she really would, but in the short time he’d known this young woman he was learning that she had a generous soul and a kind heart. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders and he put his around her waist. She wasn’t small like he’d first thought, but in fact curvy, yeah, a...
She looked so cute with her head pressed against the interior of the truck with her cheek slightly puckered, and her mouth open with snoring sounds escaping from it. He’d enjoyed carrying her over his shoulder, with her curvy butt mere inches from his face, more than he could have ever imagined. ...
She hung her head high as she walked into the general store in town. They’re refused to serve her twice, forcing them to travel to the next nearest town. This time she’d said they’d serve her or there’d be hell to pay. He and Shaun walked into the feed store, loading up on supplies. The smell of ...
She sat up, touching her lips as she did so. That kiss had felt pretty damn real. It had also felt pretty damn good, too. She rested her hand on her right breast. The sensation of his hands on her nipple had made her legs feel like they were on fire. Her panties had grown damp when he’d played wi...
