He stroked his hand along her neck, drawing her long hair back.
“You asked me to stay, so I didn’t want to just disappear in the middle of the night.”
She had asked him to stay. After what they’d shared, she hadn’t wanted him to go, leaving her alone like she always was after listening to his recording. She’d wanted the closeness to continue.
She rolled onto her back and found herself gazing up at his deep blue eyes. He was propped on his elbow, watching her. Her heart swelled and she reached up and stroked his cheek, the dark shadow of thick, coarse whiskers rasping against her hand.
“Thank you,” she said.
He smiled, his eyes crinkling at the sides. Then he leaned down and brushed his lips over hers.
Her heart stuttered and she slid her arms around his neck and drew him in for a deeper kiss.
Oh, God, he was just so big and masculine. His mouth moved on hers as he pulled her tighter to him, his big chest pressed to hers. Their lips parted briefly and she sucked in a breath, feeling a little overwhelmed, Her heart pounding.
Then he drew away.
“I know, sweetheart. You’re not ready.” He rolled back and rested on the bed, staring at the ceiling. “But I’m a patient man.” He turned his head to face her. “And you’re worth waiting for.”

Tal had insisted on taking her out for breakfast, then he’d walked her back to her apartment and given her a tender kiss goodbye.
She stared at her computer, the list of emails in front of her a vague blur as she remembered last night. Tal had been so patient and considerate. With his help, maybe she could get past her fear of actually making love with a man.
Making love with him.
Oh, God, the thought excited her.
Her phone rang and she glanced at the display. It was Leandra.
“Hi,” Sonny said.
“Hey, there. I wanted to let you know that it looks like you were right to avoid that guy your friend introduced you to at the party.”
“You mean Tal? Why?”
“I’ve just sent you an email. Check it out.”
Sonny glanced at her screen and saw Leandra’s message appear. She opened it. All that was inside was a link.
“What is this?” Sonny asked.
“Just click on it.”
Sonny moved the cursor over the link and clicked. A new tab opened with an image of a man with extensive tattoos on his arms. Not as dense as Tal’s were, but her gaze jerked to his face and it was definitely Tal.
Her stomach clenched.
Tal was in handcuffs, escorted by a uniformed police officer. It was the front page of a newspaper.
Her gaze lurched to the headline.
Man Murders Father.

Kalie Terron
The man who kidnapped me has haunted my dreams for weeks. Hot sexy dreams of his full lips moving on me. Over my naked body. Touching me in soft, intimate places.
As my captor, he wore jeans and a casual shirt. I hadn’t known that the man who brought my sexual fantasy to life is a powerful, wealthy businessman.
Now I’ve tracked him down, determined to convince him to give us a chance.
I’ve seen his eyes with a dominating edge. I’ve seen them filled with passion. And even filled with an intense need that rivaled my own. But now those eyes are cold and detached, as if what the two of us shared was nothing to him.
But I won’t give up.
Erik King
Kalie wants a relationship. Flowers and candlelight. Soft words spoken in front of a fire. But I’m not a romantic kind of guy. I like my sex rough and hard. And I like my women soft and submissive.
Just because she enjoyed a fantasy about being kidnapped by two strong, powerful men, she thinks she can handle what I want. She doesn’t get that what I enjoy is in a whole different league.
She seems intimidated by my status, which is good. I intend to take every opportunity to keep her off balance. For her own good, as well as mine.
Her unyielding determination tells me it will be difficult to convince her to back off. Thus, my only alternative is to use intimidation to scare her away.
So I will give her the chance she’s been begging for, confident that in the end, she’ll be begging to get away from me.
Excerpt
Kalie stepped into his office hesitantly, glancing around, clearly nonplussed.
“Come in and sit down, Kalie.” Erik gestured to the chair facing his desk.
Kalie sat down across from Erik. She crossed her legs and he couldn’t help noticing her long, shapely calves.
“You wanted to talk to me,” he said.
She bit her lip and nodded. Her gaze drifted to the window behind him and the spectacular view of the city below.
“I didn’t realize you were the partner in a big company like this.”
“I’m the owner, actually. The two men you just met are minor partners.”
Normally, he didn’t comment on such things, but Kalie seemed intimidated by his status and he would take every opportunity to keep her off balance.
For her own good, as well as his own.
She had made it clear that she wanted to pursue a relationship with him and her unyielding determination told him it would be difficult to convince her it wouldn’t work between them. Thus, his only alternative seemed to be to use intimidation to scare her away.
* * *
Kalie shifted in the leather chair, rethinking her whole strategy. In his role as her captor, while playing out her sexual fantasy, he’d worn jeans and a casual shirt. She’d never expected that a wealthy business owner, like he clearly was, would take the time out to indulge in play-acting with her.
Maybe it was his idea of slumming.
The sight of him in his tailored business suit, accentuating his broad shoulders and trim waist, reminded her of the muscular body that was hidden beneath the expensive clothes. His chiseled chin and finely sculpted features had filled her dreams for weeks. And right now, she couldn’t help remembering his full lips moving on hers, then over her naked body. Touching her in soft, intimate places.
She gazed up from her folded hands to his unsettling blue eyes. She’d seen those eyes with a dominating edge. She’d seen them filled with passion. And even filled with an intense need that rivaled her own.
But right now they were simply cold and detached, as if what the two of them had shared had been nothing to him.
Yet she sat here quivering with need being t
his close to him. Yearning for him to drag her into his arms and kiss her, then ravage her right on top of his desk.
“So what did you come here to say to me?” he asked, eyebrows arched.
“I...”
His cool gaze made it hard to say the words. Deep inside, she had believed when he saw her again, he would realize how much he wanted her. That she would barely have to convince him at all.
But clearly that wasn’t the case.
She drew in a deep breath. “I wanted to say that what we shared was amazing and, especially that last night...” She bit her lip. “I would really like you to give us a chance.”
“A chance to what?” he asked, his voice deadpan.
Oh, God, he wasn’t going to make this any easier.
“A chance to see if this might lead somewhere. To see if it’s worth pursuing a relationship.”
“A relationship?” He eased back in his chair. “So you see flowers and candlelight in our future? Soft words spoken in front of a fire? Holding hands as we watch movies together?”
Erik stood up and walked toward her, then leaned back against his desk.
“In case you didn’t get the idea, I’m not a romantic kind of guy. I like my sex rough and hard. And I like my women soft and submissive.”
She nodded. “I understand. I can do that.”
His eyes narrowed. “You really think so? Just because you had a fantasy about being abducted and forced to have sex with two men, you think you can handle what I want? Baby, what I enjoy is in a whole different league.”

Jessica doesn't like to take risks,
but when she's almost run over by a
red hot rock musician named Storm on his motorcycle,
she realizes that some risks are worth taking.
Excerpt
A collective shriek nearly burst her eardrums.
“There he is!” The young women bounced up and down, waving. “Over here, Storm.”
Jessica saw Storm walking across the grass toward the gate.
“Oh, my God,” the woman beside Jessica squealed. “He’s coming over here.” She stood on her tiptoes. “Storm. We love you!”
The women surged forward, pressing themselves tight against the high link fence as he drew closer, nearly knocking Jessica on her butt.
The guard sent Storm a sidelong glance as he approached, clearly concerned that his presence would start a riot.
“Good evening, ladies. Did you enjoy the show?”
The women shouted their appreciation, each trying to draw his attention.
“We love you, Storm,” the woman beside Jessica shrieked again.
He smiled crookedly. “And I love you, baby.”
The way he looked at the young woman, with warmth in his sky blue eyes, sent every woman’s heart aflutter, including Jessica’s. And the way he said “baby” made her knees go weak.
He opened his arms wide, the tattoos rippling across his muscular biceps. “I love all of you. I hope you’ll come back to see me again.”
“I’d like to see you tonight, Storm.”
“Yeah, me, too.”
One of the women pulled up her top, revealing a very large set of boobs. Jessica’s eyes widened and she glanced toward Storm. He took it in stride and chuckled warmly.
“Well, thank you, baby. Very nice. Now as far as tonight goes, I would like some company.”
The deafening squeals pierced Jessica’s eardrums again.
Storm leaned toward the guard and said something, then the guard pointed at Jessica.
“You. Come through.”
Her heart leaped as the guard opened the gate a little and she slipped through, then he closed it tight behind her. Elation soared through her at being chosen, even though she knew he’d pick her. Or maybe she’d feared he would change his mind about his date with her with so many willing, beautiful women clamoring for his attention.
“Storm, I don’t mind sharing you,” the exhibitionist cried.
He laughed. “I’ll keep that in mind, beautiful, but tonight one woman is enough.”

Three men are better than one...
Secrets, surprises, and surrender - three torrid tales of triple passion!
THREE
Hot steamy dreams... a sexy stranger... and his two brothers...
all add up to a sexy adventure she'll never forget.
Lori's steamy dreams about a hot hard stranger are hitting fever pitch. She needs way more than eye contact and a smile across a crowded subway station. An instant connection sizzled between them and now Lori, who's never believed in love at first sight, is its helpless victim.
When Lori goes to her best friend's cabin for the weekend to spend time with Marie, her new husband and his brothers, she's surprised to wind up face-to-face with her fantasy stranger. But he's Marie's husband!
When she meets his brothers, however, she finds that there just might be a way to make her dream come true.
Now Lori is experiencing her wildest fantasy yet, three ultra-sexy men all focused on her. But she wants more than a steamy dream brought to life. Because she's in love. But can her sexy stranger return her love?
THREE MEN AND A BRIDE
What do you do when you can't stop lusting
after your new husband's two gorgeous brothers?
Can Marie successfully suppress her fantasies of the three brothers making wild, luxuriant love to her, or will she have to endanger her happy marriage by admitting her feelings to her husband, Drake?
Although this is the second story in the erotic THREE series, this steamy read is the prequel to Three. You can enjoy THREE MEN AND A BRIDE on its own, or after you have read THREE.
THREE SECRETS
Keeping one secret is intriguing. Two is naughty. Three... deserves to be punished.
Sharing secrets has never been so exhilarating...
When they met in Paris, Nicole and Abel enjoyed a sensual, romantic two month fling. The last thing Nicole wanted was to fall head over heels for this sweet, loving man, because she knew he would never accept the truth about her. Unfortunately, the heart wants what it wants, and hers wanted Abel. But Nicole was not one to be controlled by anyone or anything, so once they returned home, she walked away.
When the pain of losing Abel became too much, Nicole finally decided to share her secret with him. Little did she know he had a secret of his own.
Will Abel's secret extinguish Nicole's craving for him once and for all? Will Nicole's revelation bring Abel to his knees?
