Book Description:
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
Board Stiff:
“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.

Book Description:

life.
Growing up with an alcoholic
mother and never knowing her father, Tessa Mills has not had an easy life. And
her relationship decisions have been less than stellar. But she’s finally
making a life for herself and running her own business – a yoga studio. It’s
her saving grace and that’s all she needs… until Greg Snow turns her world
upside down.
Tessa and Greg have a strong
attraction, but is it enough to overcome all their differences?
Excerpt
Board Approved:
“I don’t want to
seem like I am ungrateful for what I have.
I’ve worked hard for it. Very
hard. And…” Before she knew what was happening, Greg’s
hand palmed the back of her head and pulled her into a kiss that sent her head
spinning. His lips were firm yet soft to
the touch and he moved them expertly over her own. His goatee tickled her skin in a lascivious
way that made her wonder what it would feel like at other spots on her
body. His tongue flicked out over her
lips and Tessa was unable to stifle the moan that rose up her chest. He took that as the opportunity to move
further and pushed his tongue between her lips.
Oh sweet Jesus, he tasted fantastic!
He tasted like caramel coffee.
She could get lost in his taste… in his kiss. His experience was evident as he licked into
her mouth, exploring every crevice. His
hand flexed at the back of her head before sliding down to the nape of her neck
and caressing her there. She’d never
been kissed so thoroughly, so sensuously.
Her panties dampened as he took the kiss deeper and her hands gripped
his shirt tightly as if it were the only way for her to keep from melting into
the seat.
Beep! Beep!
Startled back to reality by the cars honking behind them, Tessa pushed
back from the kiss. She had been so
wrapped up in her verbal dribble that she hadn’t even recognized that they had
been stopped at the light just before the bridge. And then his kiss threw her into a
tailspin. She’d completely lost track of
where she was. She came to find out she
was making out at a traffic light with a man she barely knew, and she was
struggling to catch her breath after the make out session.
“You’d better go,” she
whispered. She could feel the blush once
again spread over her face. He looked at
her closely, studying her. Another horn
honked and his hand fell from the back of her neck and rested on her knee. He gave her a little squeeze and she watched
as his lips quirked up into a gorgeous smile.
“I’ve been wanting to do that since the
moment I laid eyes on you,” he said, roughly.
“And truth be told, I can’t wait to do it again.” Tessa inhaled sharply at his words and the
desire behind them. He glanced over at
her and smiled. His grey eyes were
darker than they had been earlier, and she wondered if this was the look she’d
read countless times about in all the romance novels she adored. “Where to, Tessa?” he asked. His question brought her back to the present.

Book Description:
Mark Olson isn’t just known for
owning his three large care dealerships. He’s also known as a player, at least
since his divorce. For a while, he believes he is satisfied as a member of
Advantage Insurance Company’s board of directors and bedding a different woman
every weekend. That is until someone decides to call his bluff.
Suzannah McCormick is the sweet
girl working hard as the executive assistant to Advantage’s CEO. But underneath
her saccharine southern charm is a vixen-in-waiting. She’s never been with a
man that tapped into that side of her, but she set her sights on Mark Olson with
high hopes.
Mark doesn’t realize his single
status and his heart are in jeopardy.
Excerpt
Board Indiscretion:
Since his
divorce, he’d convinced himself that remaining single was what he wanted. It
made things less complicated for his two pre-teen daughters. Shit! It made
things less complicated for himself. But that lifestyle could also be quite
lonely.
That’s where
Suzie came in and complicated the hell out of his life. She was the executive
assistant to the CEO of Advantage Insurance Company, Michael Herron, and well…
Mark was a member of Advantage’s board of directors, had been for several
years. He loved his position on the board. Aside from the small amount of
prestige it carried, he’d made great friends with the other members,
particularly the two younger board members—John Dorsey and Greg Snow. A
relationship with Suzie could compromise his position on the board and with the
members, but truth be told, he also loved his most recent position between her
legs.
If only the
situation was different.
A familiar
giggle wafted in from the direction of the dance floor. The delicate sound
stirred his cock to life. It stiffened against his black trousers
instantly. After several weeks of
clandestine meetings involving dirty talk and hard fucks, he’d know that giggle
anywhere. He’d heard it many times afterwards when they lay tangled in each
other’s limbs. Turning his head in the direction of the dance floor, anger
heated his face and his hands clenched into fists on the bar top at the sight
he witnessed.
Sandwiched
between two guys that he’d now refer to as dickheads, danced the woman that
wreaked havoc on his single life status.
Her little black dress clung to her trim frame, emphasizing her small,
but very perky breasts and showing off her figure that could easily grace the
cover of any fashion magazine. Her legs stretched for miles and her creamy
white skin contrasted nicely against the jet black of her dress. Flinging her
silky blonde hair over her shoulder and down her back, her pink Pursecase
carrying her iPhone dangled from her wrist as her hips gyrated against her two
dance partners. The taller man dancing behind her slipped his hand over her hip
and rested it over her low belly as he rubbed what Mark was sure to be a rock
hard erection against Suzie’s ass.
What the fuck is
she doing?
First, she never
came to the Beach Club. Never. In all his regular visits to this club over the
last couple of years, he had yet to see her in here once. Not once! Second, she was practically dry-humping two
guys in the middle of the dance floor. That wasn’t her typical style.
Suzie was one of
those beautiful women that appeared to have the girl-next-door innocence. She
didn’t dress too provocatively. She was
sexy, but in that way that was just natural. Her bubbly Southern charm won over
all the men on the board of directors and Mark speculated it would win over
anyone. He flirted with her, teasing her on board days to get a rise out of
her. There’d always been a twinkle of mischief in her eyes when he flirted with
her that would leave him questioning whether he knew her at all.
At last
quarter’s board meeting, she left him dumbfounded when she responded to his
flirtation with a proposition. After mulling it over for a bit, which actually
had turned out to be a couple weeks, he called her bluff. He asked her over to
his place for cocktails and she showed up. What he learned was that there was a
lot more to Suzannah McCormick than met the eye. The rest was history.
Throwing back
the last remnants of his whiskey, he stood from his stool, tossed some cash on
the bar, and turned toward the dance floor. He wrestled with what his next move
should be.
