Josh McKenzie may come off as

calls, Marla quickly learns there is more to the sexy tatted man with
the British accent. And if she’s not careful, she
can easily lose herself in his gentle touch and soft voice.
A feisty redhead with a mouth that won’t quit, Marla Sullivan knows how to push all of Josh’s buttons, making him want her in the worst way. His biggest hurdle is breaking through her stubborn walls and proving he’s here to stay.
When Marla’s faced with an
unknown danger, Josh is forced to reveal his buried past. Promises made
and surfaced truths may be the catalyst that brings them together...or
pushes them further apart.

EXCERPTS
Marla’s
form strutted out the door, her long hair flowing down her creamy white
shoulders and hourglass frame. That black dress hugged her petite
body, and I observed the way her ass moved
as she hooked her coat and purse over her arm. Her femininity was
alluring. The way she held herself and her delicate skin smelling like
cinnamon made me hard. It matched her sizzling mouth that I wanted to
suck on and kiss raw.
I lifted myself
out of the seat and crossed the room to her as she fumbled to put on her
coat. One side hung down and I grabbed it with ease. She jerked away,
attempted to escape me as I held it up.
Mahogany eyes glared at me. She was on defense, no doubt from Ryan and
whatever other idiots had disillusioned her about chivalry and
romance. I would prove to her it wasn’t dead.
“Is the date set with Dumbledore?”
Her ruby red
colored lips pressed down a smile as she shook her head. “His name’s
Gandalf, and he asked me to an early bird dinner at Denny’s.”
Cute. At least
she was open to joking with me, if only a bit. But she was also
nervous. I could see it reflected in the way she moved, even the way
she breathed. “Let me walk you to your car.”
“No, I’m fine.”
She moved at a
faster pace and I kept up easily. I wasn’t letting her walk alone at
night, especially with the type of men I saw in there. “I’m walking you
out.”
“My car’s in the parking garage, they have security cameras.”
She was one
tough cookie. Independent, used to doing things on her own, she
probably attracted the men who were complete opposite of her. She liked
to be in control and so did I. You’d think this would
pose some type of problem, but I was attracted to it. I moved closer
to her, my mouth near her ear. “You like pushing me away, don’t you?”
She turned her
head toward me and rolled her eyes. “Let me guess, you’re one of those
alphas who likes to see his woman submit. You want the type of woman
who will adore you every night, follow you around
all day, and tell others how amazing you are at everything you do.”
“You certainly
like pretending you know who I am. Since we met you’ve been nothing but
judgmental toward me and only me. Why is that?”
We were riding
in the lift, but she didn’t dare give me a glance. Instead she pressed
the button to the ground floor, even though it had already been lit up.
She pressed at it again, as if it would make
it go faster.
“I don’t like guys like you.”
“Guys like me?”
“Yeah. I’ve dated guys like you.”
I couldn’t help
but laugh as I rested in the corner against the wall. What to say to a
woman who thought she already knew everything about you? I’d give it a
go. “So, some idiot who lived in the gym
dated and hurt you, and now you think all men who work out are the
same?”
“Whether they live in the gym or not, they all end up being the same. They all want a certain type of woman.”
“Which is what?”
The doors
finally opened and she scurried out, searching for her keys in her bag.
“The easy woman to comply with whatever they want, whenever they want,
however they want.”
“That type of woman is boring.”
She turned to
her red Toyota Prius and opened the door, throwing her purse in the
passenger side and starting her car. “Exactly. Yet they all want it.”
Before she could
shut the door, I stepped in front of it and leaned down as she strapped
on her seatbelt. “Darling, I’m not afraid of hard work. I know you’re
an independent woman, and though most men
find that threatening, I find it extremely sexy.”
“You know what I find extremely
not sexy? The fact that you find a woman like me to be hard work. Strike one, pal.”
She threw her
hand up holding two fingers, and either she was warning me that I had
two chances left, or she shot me the peace sign. I believe it was the
latter. Either way, she was not happy. If I
wanted to make headway with Red, I was going to have to get some inside
help to thaw the icy heart within that fiery woman.
