Excerpt

From the inside cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #920, November 2009, US Edition:

Hunter filled the doorway, his eyes simmering obsidian. But his voice was cool with control. "I thought we were a team."

Sinclair swalllowed. "I didn't know," she finally blurted out.

"Didn't know what? Was there something ambiguous about 'Don't tell anyone about thid deal'?"

"That was before it went through," she shot back, refusing to give him another inch. But what she really wanted, she finally admitted to herself, was him. Her boss. He was powerful and charismatic, and he held her in his gaze in a way no other man ever had.

The heat simmering between them was unbearable.

"I'm in the wrong. I can take it. What do you want me to do?" She forced herself to ask him.

Hunter actually smiled. There was a fire still raging in his eyes, an unwavering desire. Her mouth went dry. Unwavering desire...for her?
