Excerpt
Finally, I sigh in defeat and look up, meeting his watchful gaze directly. “I don’t have
any money.”

He raises an eyebrow. “Did I ask for money?”

“I don’t have anything else you might want either,” I snap.

“I doubt that…” He pointedly eyes the neckline of my dress, and I shift uncomfortably.
It’s cut differently than my tried and true sweaters, displaying more of my
collarbone and a glimpse of the flesh beneath. I can’t stop myself from
crossing my arms over my chest, and he flashes that dangerous grin in triumph.
“In fact, I can think of a few things you could offer—”

“Get out.” I slam the ledger shut and turn away as if just telling him to leave could make
it true.

But he doesn’t. Neither does he creep toward my corner to drill in his taunt—and
that’s the worst part. I have to endure him, but without the tools I’m used to
utilizing. Silence and the safety of my own head don’t work where he is
concerned.

His breathing is too noisy, grating and raspy. His scent is overpowering, sneaking
into my lungs with every breath. Around him, my thoughts don’t form the
protective wall I’m used to hiding behind. They fracture. Splinter.

And he breaks through easily.

“I want to see you hop, bunny,” he murmurs, just when I think I might scream to counteract his presence. “Without the dowdy little sweaters or the boring little mask. I
want to prove you wrong. I didn’t run last time. I just gave you a taste. It’s
up to you if you want more but with no excuses. No chance to cry assault.”

I bristle at his tone, wrapping my arms around my waist even tighter. If I hope to find
comfort in the action…I don’t. His gaze slips beneath the barrier, creeping
over me without permission. I can practically feel his gaze rasping along my skin.
“What are you talking about?”

“Tonight,” he repeats. “Dragon’s Head. You can even bring your little friend if you want.”

Dragon’s Head. The name conjures the image of neon lights and raucous dancing. “The club?” I frown. “Why would I go there with you?”

He laughs, and his steps resonate through the floor. Alarmed, I turn to watch him move,
but he takes his time, giving me every chance to cower and back away.

I don’t recognize the way my breathing hitches as he comes closer. How my nerves tense
as he raises his hand, deliberately inching toward my cheek.

“D-Don’t touch me—”

“I have touched you,” he reminds me. “Don’t kid yourself into believing you don’t want
more.”

“More of what?” I force myself to meet his gaze only to regret it.

I wish his eyes gleamed in that mocking, cruel way, but their stare is flat and empty.
“More of what could happen the next time I have my fingers inside you.”
MY REVIEW:
Excellent!! This is “need another star” fantastic! Dark, dangerous, moody, mysterious and absolutely terrific. This grab me from the beginning and I was hooked into the story all the way to that OMG ending. I didn’t realize this was a duet and I need the other half now. I can’t wait for the explosion between the hero, Rafe, and the bad cop, Branden. Rafe is divine as the Triad gangbanger with the soul of an artist. As he says he’s “a very sexy motherfucker.” The sex oozes from the bad boy and nephew of the Triad leader. When he catches sight of Hannah, the rich girl running from her awful life and controlling big brother, he’s hooked. The push/pull, lust/hate between the two is spectacular. And the evil big brother? Branden is the worst of the worst. There were just a couple of things that were a little off to me but I overlooked them because this story is just too good. It kept me on the edge of my seat waiting for Bran to make his appearances and Rafe to save the girl. The writing was fantastic, characters jumped off the pages and the story was suspenseful, mysterious, with a slow-burn romance that exploded into deliciously sexiness and a few really tender moments. I LOVED it! Bring on Part 2, Flame!

I love books! I have been reading for as long as I can remember. I was the kid with the flashlight under the covers reading until the wee hours. Books were my refuge. I was delighted to discover tree climbing. I would take a book and climb to the top of a Mimosa tree and read for hours...and of course ignore my mother calling for me to do chores. I was committed to reading all of the Nancy Drew stories. Ned was my first book boyfriend. When I was in my early teens I discovered Harlequin romances. I feel in love and it changed my life. I was in love with Love 💕 That’s something for a girl who hadn’t been kissed yet. When I read “he thrust his throbbing member into her womanhood” I was lost to discovering more about this particular brand of romance. But I don’t just enjoy romance reads. My father-in-law introduced me to the high fantasy genre and I loved it. When I bought my first Nook the world of books really took me by surprise. I was enthralled with all the available genres and to my delight I discovered erotica. In most cases, I was with family on visits to bookstores and you don’t peruse those even if they carried them. Oh the shame of it! ;) Thanks to Nancy Drew I still enjoy mysteries along with romance, fantasy, erotica, paranormal, steampunk, thrillers, and well, most anything except a horror of a horror. My favorite might be romance suspense but it’s hard for me to pick just one. I had a serious health issue a few years ago and was forced to quite working after building a career I could be proud of. It was devastating and depressing. I lost myself in books and now spend my days (and nights) reading. I am so appreciative of authors and the wonderful storytelling I’ve found in books. It takes me away from my troubles and introduces me into a world like no other. I love books!
