The Brody Bunch Collection: Bad Boy Romance
Page 63
My hands slid up her thighs, holding her hips for a moment and then coming up to her breasts, letting them fill my palms and spill over the sides. I sat up then, to catch a tight, pink nipple between my teeth and tug, knowing by now that I’d hear a soft whimper when I rolled it between my teeth, that it would shift to a hiss as she wrapped her arms around my head and held me to her chest. I reached across the floor to the box of condoms we’d left lying there earlier and pulled one out, slipping it on as quickly as I could.
She barely waited for me to finish before she tilted her hips to capture the tip of my cock and then rocked back so that I slid completely inside of her. I could feel her body pulse around my shaft and I groaned into her breast in response.
Cupping my face in both her hands, Ava drew me up for a kiss. Like the sex, the kiss started slow, teasing and sweet and hot, until our tongues were all tangled up. Then she quickened the pace, catching my lips with her teeth as I shifted my weight to roll her onto her back, shoving a towel under her head for a pillow to support my matching faster and deeper thrusts. I couldn’t deny the urge I had to drive myself deeper still into her core, letting my cock explore every inch it could reach. I couldn’t get enough.
Ava whispered my name, her voice choked and breathless, and I felt her fluttering around me, gripping me tight, legs wrapped around my hips in an effort to pull me even harder into her. “Yeah, take me home, Cowboy,” she whispered into my ear.
5 hours ago…
My fingers slid through Ava’s hair, carding between strands. Her head was tucked under my chin, and she stroked her fingertips lazily over my chest.
“I just…,” she said softly, her voice half asleep. “I used to have it all figured out, you know? My career was going a certain way, and now….”
I hugged her close, feeling a tightening in my chest when she talked about her asshole ex-boyfriend/manager. I couldn’t believe he’d done that— leaked those pictures of her. That must have been what the frat guys had been talking about. I had done some shitty things in my life, but that was reprehensible.
“And now?” I asked, surprising myself with the gentleness in my tone.
“And now I... it’s like someone else decided what kind of person I am, and that person... doesn’t fit the career plan.”
She curled closer to me, and I pressed my lips to her temple. “Who says you have to be what they say? Isn’t that how you got here in the first place?” Sweet as she looked, I could see already that Ava was more than a preteen drama star with a squeaky-clean personal life.
“I guess it is,” she whispered, and then, so quietly I almost didn’t hear she added, “Sometimes I wish I could just escape it all. Just run away and not have to be Gabby Rover. Just me. Just Ava.”
“You can,” I said, suddenly determined. “I’ll help. Let’s run away together, Ava. Let’s just run away from all of it. From everything.”
She pushed herself up to look at me, a sleepy but genuine smile on her face. “Yeah? You mean it?” she blinked slowly and let her head fall a little to her raised shoulder. She still had alcohol on her breath and smelled like the sex that we had been having all night. She was perfect. Breathtaking and flawless and everything I wanted in that moment.
“I do,” I said, feeling more sure of that than I had about anything in a long, long time. More proud too, like I’d found something I actually wanted to do after years of bumming around aimlessly. “I really do.”
As soon as the word “wife” was out of my mouth, I regretted it. Sure, I was a little angry that she didn’t remember me, a little disappointed that our plans to run away from it all had been completely forgotten. But it was the petty side of me that wanted to get her back for that, the side of me that spoke first and thought later. The whole idea of the stereotypical drunk, Vegas wedding was what led to the whole idea in the first place, and was why I thought it would be a pretty funny little joke. A harmless prank.
I honestly didn’t even think she’d believe me.

About the Author
Bestselling author Sienna Valentine grew up in Canada and still lives there, spending her time reading and writing. Steamy romance has always been her favorite genre, and now finds that the only thing more satisfying than dreaming up her fantasies in the first place, is writing them down and being able to share them with others.

Acknowledgments
Thanks to everyone that has stuck with me during the entire Brody Bunch journey, I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Special thanks go out to all of my beta and ARC readers along the way, as well as my Facebook Street Team. It really helps an author to get honest opinions and reviews on a book (especially before release), as many people feel more comfortable buying something after seeing that others have enjoyed it first, so these ladies have been invaluable. If you want to join the Street Team and be part of that group, just send me a message on FB or via email. Thanks so much!
Hopefully you’ll all join me for the next book!

Name a Character Contest!
Ever wanted to immortalize yourself or someone you love by having your name used in a novel? Well if so, have I got a contest for you!
In order to find out a little bit more about what my readers like and don’t like, I’ve put together a really quick survey - it shouldn’t even take you 5 minutes to complete, but it will give me a good idea about future direction in my writing. And as an added incentive, I’ve added a place at the end for you to suggest a character name - it can be just a first name, just a last name, or both.
After a few weeks of running the survey, I’ll randomly select AT LEAST one character name from pool of everyone that has completed it and use that character name in my next book. I may even pick more than one, depending on my needs. The winning character name(s) and some of the results of the survey will be shared with my mailing list, so make sure to join if you’re interested in finding out if you won early. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait until my next book is out to see if your suggestion was used!
The fine print: By submitting a name, you’re granting Sienna Valentine all rights to use that name for any purpose and completely free. Sienna reserves the right to veto a name and redraw if the name chosen at random is something Sienna considers unusable for any reason. Reasons might include (but are not limited to): Name submitted is simply a bunch of random letters, numbers or words, or the name is profane or offensive, trademarked, or otherwise unusable.
(Just to be clear, I’m not looking to just veto names until I find one I like, I’m just trying to make sure my next book doesn’t end up having to use a character named “Djksdc shitforbrains” or something like that.)
