Description:
As a
covert operative in Elatia’s elite military, Sway Waybourne is used
to fending for herself. But a powerful uprising means she’s now
responsible for guarding the leader of a neighboring planet. Within
seconds of meeting Dason Cavaletti, sparks fly and Sway realizes
she’s gotten more than she bargained for.
Dason is
curious about the arousal taking over his mind, body, and soul. When
he can no longer stand the overwhelming desire, he confronts Sway.
But the disturbing news she delivers isn’t at all what he expected.
Mating with the gorgeous woman could kill him….
WARNING:
Sarcasm galore from a fiery heroine who can take care of herself
thank-you-very-much. She won’t take anyone’s guff—even from the
leader of the free universe no matter how handsome he is. A unique
genetic quirk leads to inventive foreplay, one blazing hot hands-on
session in the bathtub and a gender bending encounter that signals
this ain’t your father’s Star Trek. No redshirts were harmed
while writing this novel.
Excerpt:
“This
is…quite the situation.”
She
blew out a breath as she slumped onto the far side of the mattress.
“You can say that again.”
Sensing
her frustration—which matched his own—he reached over and clamped
his hand around her ankle. She didn’t fight as he dragged her
across the bed and into his arms. “It’s not as if it’s the end
of the world.”
“No.
It’s just…I’m used to being able to handle any situation.”
“And
you don’t know how to handle this.”
“Not
really.”
“I’m
sure we can come up with ideas. In fact, I’m thinking of one right
now.”
“You’re
going to be the death of me.”
“Way
I understand, it’s the other way around.” Her laughter rang out
in the room, shattering the tension. He pulled her closer, content
and sated for the moment. “You’re a remarkable woman. Strong,
determined, not to mention sexy as sin.”
She
squirmed against him and he took it as a signal she wasn’t used to
hearing such things said about her. Her reaction made him decide to
shower her with attention while they were trapped together.
He
was both amused and terrified by her reactions. Her extraordinary
skill set was evident and he found her tenacity admirable. She
possessed a vulnerability, though she clearly did her best to hide
that aspect of her personality. By his guess, she thought it would
show a weakness if she let others know about any flaw in her
perfection. A good covert operative couldn't have any visible flaws.
Otherwise, they weren’t very good at their job.
By
the looks of things so far, she was very, very good at her job.
And
for reasons he didn’t completely understand, he had begun to fall
in love with her.
