Blurb:
John Dorsey’s life is good. He is the owner of Dorsey Construction. He’s the youngest person on the board of
directors for Advantage Insurance Company.
He lives on the beach. And he
knows he can have any woman he wants.
John’s got the world at his fingertips… except he’s yet to find a woman
that stimulates both his body and mind.
Elizabeth Wright worked hard in a large
Tampa law firm making a name for herself, but it came at the expense of her
personal life. When Advantage Insurance Company offers her a job as corporate
counsel, Elizabeth cannot turn it down.
The thought that she can have a successful legal career and a life
excites and intimidates her.
But when their worlds collide one day in
the Advantage board room, neither Elizabeth nor John knows what’s hit
them. All they know is they can’t stay
away from each other.
Excerpt:
“Are you seeing anyone? Sleeping with anyone?” he asked further.
“What?”
she said, standing up from her chair.
Her face was incapable of hiding her shock at his questions. Her green eyes were wide. Her lips parted. “What sort of questions are these?” John’s stride made short use of the distance
between them. He stood directly in front
of her, cornering her behind her desk.
He looked down into her green eyes.
They were gorgeous… she was gorgeous.
And he had every intention of claiming her.
“Answer
my questions, Elizabeth. Are you seeing
anyone?” He watched as her eyes widened
even further with shock at his determination to get answers to his
questions. Nervousness flittered across
her face, but her breath came out in short pants as if his close proximity
affected her. He watched as her chest
rose and fell with each breath. God, he wanted to feel her body against his. He just knew she would feel perfect against
him… in his arms.
“Your
questions are inappropriate,” she replied sharply. Despite her body giving her attraction away,
she held firm. He liked that. He liked a woman that wasn’t too easy of a
catch.
“I
agree,” he said, impatiently. “They are
inappropriate. I need the answers
nonetheless.”
“Why?”
she asked. Her gaze scanned his face as
if looking for the answer to her question.
“Answer
me,” he demanded. His hand reached out
and caressed her cheek as if to soothe the harshness of his words.
“You
are way out of line, Mr. Dorsey,” Elizabeth said.
“Yes,
I know,” he said a little softer this time.
His fingers tucked a few strands of her hair behind her ear. His gaze dropped to her bared neck. He had to fight the urge to nuzzle the spot
just below her ear. “But I need to know
if there are any obstacles to making you mine.
Are you seeing anyone?”
“No,”
she whispered. “I’m not seeing
anyone.” Her lips parted for a moment
before she bit down on her lower lip.
That was almost his undoing.
“Are
you fucking anyone?” he asked. She
released her bottom lip and sucked in a breath when he asked that
question. Her gaze fell from his eyes to
his lips and then to her hands. He
placed his fingers under her chin and tilted her head up to meet his gaze
again. He wanted to see her eyes when
she answered him. There was heat in her
gaze, and that thrilled him.
“No,
Mr. Dorsey, I’m not fucking anyone at
the moment,” she said. Her voice was
hard, but he heard the desire in it and that snapped his restraint. His hand weaved into her hair until his palm
gripped the back of her head, pulling her into him. His mouth slammed down on hers. Her full lips were soft and pliable, and his
tongue flicked out over her lips to taste her.
She tasted so sweet…like candy.

Bio:
I am a
born and raised small town Ohio girl, who moved to the Sunshine State after
graduating from college. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in English
because I could not imagine doing anything else but reading and writing. It is
such a pleasure to be able to share all the stories in my head!
In the
journey of life, I also became a wife and a mother of three children. So, life
is always an adventure. But the love of writing has never died.
My
favorites: I love to read and write...
obviously! But I also enjoy all sports, especially college football and the
Ohio State Buckeyes! Go Steelers! Go Rays! I LOVE to travel... LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
to travel. And I love sharing my love to travel with my children. I love to
drink Teavana teas! I love a good glass of wine, especially if it comes from a
bottle made by the FOOLS wine club… yep, I’m a member of that! I
love hanging out with my family and my friends!
Big fan of music, but love nothing better than putting on my jean
shorts, tank top, cowboy boots and hat and watching Tim McGraw belt it
out! I’m a sucker for a cowboy hat!
