He knelt down again, his eyes level with her lower lips. He stared at her pussy, remembering how she’d tasted, how she’d felt as she came on his fingers and mouth. He glanced up at her. “Babe, I can’t wait to go down on you again.” He pressed a kiss to her mound, his tongue darting out to give her a teasing lick as he pulled back. “You’re so damn hot, you know that?” “Uh,” she gasped as his fingers slid inside. “Please, Luke…” “Please?” he said, his thumb massaging her throbbing clit even as his fingers moved in and out of her. “Please what?” “Please…” She threw her head back, tried to keep standing. God, the man was going to kill her. “Please go down on me again.” **** Nine weeks ago, Selena Perez chose survival, and paid for it with her breasts.

In Cordelia's marriage, she is the other woman. First, it was to the memory of her sister, Angelica, the woman who should have been his bride. And now, she is still only second best, cast aside for any pretty face that reminds him of his lost love. After five years of marriage, and one night of passion that turned into heartbreak, she gains the strength to start over on her own. But there are things about her marriage that she never knew. Strange things are happening all around her and it turns out that she has bigger skeletons in her closet than the ones she put there herself. What really happened to Angelica? And what will she do, once she learns the truth? ________ The first time our eyes met my heart stopped. “Hello,” I smiled in his direction, “My name is Cordelia Grayson.” His returning smile was hesitant, uncertain, and small. “Atlas Steele.” He was beautiful with his golden blonde hair and bright blue eyes. I could tell he was a little too old for me, but I have always been attracted to older boys. His age didn't discourage me, if anything I think it made him even more dashing. And from that moment on my heart was his. Utterly and completely. Unfortunately it was not my heart that he wanted to hold. When he raised his gaze to mine a second time, his eyes skipped over my face to focus on someone standing behind me. I turned to look. It was my sister. He asked me if I knew her. I could tell he was more interested in her than he was in me, and even though it hurt to do it, I nodded in confirmation. “That's my sister, Angelica.” “Angelica,” he said her name slowly, savoring each syllable.

They say never judge a book by its cover, something Leo Andre quickly learns when it comes to Eva Martinez.

As their connection deepens, long-buried secrets come to light, revealing a bond that runs far deeper than either of them realized.

What happens when a woman who’s given up on love collides with the man who unknowingly holds a piece of her past, and maybe, her future?

THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORBIDDEN WEAKNESS (Where the Ice Breaks) Damien Cole built his empire the same way he built his walls — brick by brick, from nothing, with bleeding hands and a heart he locked away so long he forgot it was still there. By thirty-two, he's untouchable. Ruthless. The kind of man who commands every room he enters and feels nothing when he leaves. His assistants don't last. His relationships don't either. He doesn't do warmth. He doesn't do weakness. Then Nathalia Bennett walks in. Fresh out of university, armed with ambition and absolutely zero patience for arrogance, she takes the job nobody wants — personal assistant to New York's most feared CEO. She isn't impressed by the money. She isn't intimidated by the power. And when he's cold as ice, she doesn't flinch. When he pushes, she pushes back. It should have been simple. Professional. Temporary. It becomes anything but. From the steel and glass of New York to the rain-soaked streets of London, the glittering excess of Monaco and the quiet devastation of a Bali night — something is breaking open between them. Something neither of them asked for. Something Damien will fight with everything he has, because the only thing more terrifying than his past is the possibility that she could make him forget it. He has survived everything life threw at him by feeling nothing. Nathalia Bennett is about to become the one thing he can't survive. Some walls don't crack. They shatter.
