Almost A Family
The Girl Most Likely
He ll let her have control& until he s ready to make his move.
Pride and Passion
© 2010 Jenna Bayley-Burke
The only things Lily Harris inherits after her father s untimely death are debt, scandal and loneliness.
She doesn t protest when her father s business partner, Jake Tolliver, steps up to help with the mess she
finds herself in until Jake reveals the last promise he made to her father.
Jake may be as compelling to look at as a marble statue and stir a frighteningly powerful desire
within her but no way will Lily agree to be his socially acceptable bride while he continues to bed his
string of beautiful women not without getting him to agree to a deal of her own first.
With a well-earned reputation as a feral hunter who goes after what he wants, Jake has his sights set
on Lily, and her lack of options puts her right where he s wanted her from the first moment he laid eyes on
her.
Jake s not above making Lily think she s having it her way if that s what it ll take to have his way in
the end. But once he grows tired of playing beast to her beauty, he s not above changing the rules of the
game until they re both playing for the same prize.
Warning: This title contains a hero used to getting what he wants, a heroine determined not to give in
to him, some indecent proposals, a fair amount of pride, and enough passion to burn up everyone s control.
Enjoy the following excerpt for Pride and Passion:
He made his way through the dark house without turning on any lights. The full moon provided just
enough illumination to keep from bumping into things on his way to the kitchen. He pushed open the door
and reached for the light switch, flicking it on.
Lily stood in front of the refrigerator, a carton of milk in her hand, at least until she spied him and
dropped it with a gasp. His eyes widened at the sight of Lily in a pale pink nightie, her golden hair loose
about her shoulders. The light material dipped low between her full breasts, delicately revealed the curve of
her hips, and gave an alluring view of her bare thighs.
She wasn t so mesmerized. She cursed, then reached for a towel on the counter and bent low to clean
up the spill. Jake pulled his libido back in check and moved to help her. He took the towel from her and she
stood. He had to bite back a groan at how the hem of her nightie came right into his line of sight.
I m sorry, Lily said, walking around him and returning with another towel. I didn t expect
anyone.
Obviously. He finished the task and stood, enjoying the way her chest hitched with each breath as
he looked down at her. What are you doing down here?
Having a glass of milk, or trying to anyway. That s what I do when I can t sleep. She kept her gaze
locked on his, except for fleeting moments when it dropped to his bare chest.
He grinned, glad he wasn t the only one hyper-aware after midnight. That s because you sleep
alone.
Her cheeks pinked, but she recovered quickly, narrowing her eyes. You know, I think you may be
right. It s time I find someone willing to marry the penniless virgin and cure her insomnia.
She tried to walk past him, but he caught her arm, turned her around and pulled her flush against him.
Try it, and you ll find my patience exhausted quickly.
While you expect me to live a life in perpetual understanding of your need to go through mistresses
faster than socks. She tried to shake off his hold, but he pulled her closer.
I ve never claimed to be a saint. But I m not going to spend my life feeding into your insecurity. I
want you, only you, and have from the moment I saw you.
I watched you, this golden angel gliding across a room, and I wanted you to be looking for me, not
one of those worthless idiots you dated. We hadn t even met, and I couldn t get you out of my mind.
Maybe I did use your father to get closer to you. It seemed kismet that we were in the same industry. Will
became my friend, but he became my partner because of you. I had no other choice. I had to protect you
somehow, and you never would have looked twice at me had I not thrown myself in your way at every
opportunity.
You ve been watching me? Her haughty tone cut him to the quick. He was never going to be
enough for her, never going to measure up to the vapid boys always trailing after her simply because he
hadn t lived their life.
And you ve been watching me, wondering what it would be like if you were only brave enough to
step outside your perfect world for a minute and indulge in all I can offer you. He took a step forward,
moving them both until she was backed up against the kitchen table.
What do you think you re doing? Her eyes flashed with an emotion he hadn t seen in her yet. True
fear, or excitement?
What you ve wanted me to do since you first started watching me. You think there s something
beneath what the world sees. Maybe it s time I show you what that is.
Can a four-year-old girl, a snowball fight and a six-year-old diamond ring finally keep Molly and Jason
together?
Almost a Family
© 2007 Donna Alward
Prominent lawyer Molly Schaeffer rearranges her life to return home and take care of her niece after a
car accident leaves Molly s sister hospitalized. Little does she know that Jason Elliot, her ex-boyfriend-
turned-hot-veterinarian, is her sister s next-door neighbor.
Jason s been burned by Molly before and has no intention of letting it happen again. He s made his
own success with a lucrative practice. But what he secretly wants is a family of his own, and he knows that
a career woman like Molly is not the sort to give it to him. Since Molly turned down his proposal six years
before and left town, he s kept his broken heart under wraps. Can they forgive each other enough to make a
new start? Or is this the final goodbye they never really had?
Warning: This title contains some explicit sex.
Enjoy the following excerpt for Almost a Family:
Molly ran through the ankle deep snow to his house and pounded on the door. Jason? Jason, open
up! It s Molly!
He threw open the door, looking harassed with his mouth set in a firm line and his eyebrows pulled
together in the middle, making a crease in his forehead. Keep your shirt on! he ordered, frowning down
hat her.
At the sight of him, she started to cry without explanation. It didn t matter that she had vowed not to
need his help. It didn t matter that they were still at odds over broken hearts and mixed messages. All that
mattered was that Sara was missing. All she knew was that there was one person she could count on. Could
always count on.
Please, she begged, her voice thick with tears. Sara s gone and I can t find her anywhere and her
coat is missing and&
Jason grabbed her upper arms. Get a grip, Mol, he ordered. She s here. She s asleep on the couch.
The flood of relief almost buckled her knees and was immediately followed by hot anger. Anger at
Sara for disappearing without telling her. Anger at Jason for not calling to let her know. And most of all [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
