Synopsis: A sexy category romance from Entangled's Brazen imprint...
She's the woman he loves to hate.Penn Foster wants a lot of things. She wants a spot on the board of a charitable foundation. She wants to win the stupid, plastic family trophy. And more than anything, she wants her tall, hot, and brooding boss naked in her bed. Now, on a Hawaiian vacation with her family, she's desperately trying not to think about how he'd sound whispering dirty things in her ear.
He's the man she can't have...or can she?
Cole Murphy keeps himself locked down, away from the press and out of the spotlight. Still haunted by a traumatic childhood, his ability to trust has been decimated. Penn, with her sexy body and confidence, is the only person able to drag him out of his shell. Which is why he crashes her vacation and accepts her proposition for no-strings sex. But is the inescapable heat building between them a delicious temptation, or will it end in total disaster?
That
kiss had ignited the very fire she’d known would exist between them if they
gave it the opportunity. Maybe they could play by the “what happens in Hawaii,
stays in Hawaii” rules. If no one knew about their encounter, then her career
moves could never be questioned.
Besides,
right now she was feeling the need to break out of the stereotypes her family
had placed on her, and a fling with the object of three years’ worth of her
fantasies was the exact way to challenge that.
Game
on.
“You’re
right. I do like to have fun.” She ran her finger down the back of his hand
where it rested on his thigh. “And there’s a specific type of fun I’m thinking
of right now.”
His
eyes lifted quickly and wordlessly locked on hers.
She
gave him her best dirty-girl smile. “I know all the reasons why we shouldn’t,
but I can’t stop thinking about that kiss.” Her finger moved up and traced his
forearm, then circled in the crook of his elbow. “Maybe we should explore whatever
this is.” She ran her finger back and forth between them.
He
swallowed hard, then gulped in a breath. “Why here? Why now?”
“Can
you think of a better place?” She held out her arms, coaxing him to take in the
luscious scenery, feel the gentle breeze, smell the fresh ocean air. “I know
you want to.” She didn’t think it would take much to turn him on, but
convincing him to actually go along with it, well that was the bigger task. “No
one has to know. Ever.”
She
reached out and grabbed his hand, then settled his palm against her thigh. It
twitched. And that simple reaction told her everything she needed to know. But
she wasn’t ready to stop playing. Even if he pretended he didn’t, he loved it
when she teased him. And he deserved every bit of it. “I’ve often wondered what
these would feel like between my legs.”
Fire
blazed in his eyes. “I was afraid you’d be a talker.” Did he not like the dirty
talk? She sure did.
Moving his hand higher, she pressed his fingertips
against
her center. He tried to pull away, but she held his hand in place and locked
her thighs together. When he stifled a groan, she knew she’d won.
“I
knew the moment I saw these hands that you’d know how to handle a woman.” And
so he had no question as to where she was going with this, she added, “How to
handle every inch of me.”
With
her other hand, she traced up and down his fingers resting on the bar. He made
no attempt to move his hand from between her legs. And that muscle in his jaw
was twitching like crazy.
“This
isn’t a funny game, Penn.” His voice was thick, heavy with desire, and he
demonstrated by rubbing the edge of his finger against her panties.
“This...”
She shivered. “Is no game.” She meant every word she’d said. “I want to have
fun here, too. And sex just happens to be my favorite way to have fun.”
He’d
probably thought that by coming to this island he’d help her win a cup, but he
had no idea he was also going to help her find release from her familial
chains.
He
blew out a long breath. The more blatant and aggressive her words, the more
fear darkened his gaze. “Why are you so willing to offer yourself to me like
this?”
Because
I’ve only dreamed of fucking you for three entire years. It’s about damn time.
“Maybe
this is my way of repaying you for helping me finally win.”
He
tensed up. “That’s not the reason.”
“I
know.” She brushed her hand through his hair, soothing his tension. “And it’s
not why I’m offering myself to you. You know why.” She sat back and locked eyes
with him. “You’ve always known.”
