Excerpt
From the inside cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #889, August 2009, UK Edition:
A shock of sensation jolted her out of her fury. A shock of something almost like excitement.
She dropped the necklace to the table and discovered she was breathing hard, as if she'd run here instead of tottering on ridiculously high heels. She stepped out of the delicate slingback sandals and her feet sank into the luxurious pile of the carpet.
Still he said nothing, just watched her with eyes that glowed with an inner fire.
No time for second thoughts. She'd committed herself. Head up, back straight, she paced towards him. He didn't move except to tilt his head, the better to watch her.
He enjoyed this power play. She sensed it even though his face remained granite-hard.
The realisation gave her the strength to sink onto her knees beside him on the sofa. She twisted a little, her leg aligning with his thigh, so solid and warm and unmoving. Without giving herself time to think she reached out and cupped his jaw in her hand. His skin was hot and smooth. So smooth she wondered if he'd just shaved. Had he been so sure she'd come to him?
Of course he had. He held all the cards.
