Excerpt:
A shiver ran through him as her soft breasts brushed over his chest. It had been such a long time since he’d wanted to lose himself in a woman’s body.
Holding Headley close to him, he backed them up until her back touched the desk behind them.
“You smell so good,” he whispered burying his nose below her ear. “I could just eat you up.” Nipping at her neck, Troy cupped Headley’s ass in his hands and held her against him. “Why don’t we just stop all of this fighting and get down to the good stuff?”
“Troy, you aren’t going to seduce me into giving in to you,” Headley moaned near his ear. “I’ll fight you every step of the way.”
“That’s such a waste of energy. I know we can find a better way for you to get rid of it. With the built up sexual tension we have, we’ll be explosive together. Hell…the fire alarm will go off when we finally give in.”
“You’re wrong,” she denied with a shake of her head. “I don’t want you.”
Inching back, Troy stared at Headley while she fought to keep her body under control. Yet he could see how hard her nipples were through the thin t-shirt.
Reaching out, he ran his hand slowly down the front of her shirt pausing long enough to give each nipple a firm pinch.
Headley gasped but didn’t tell him to stop. Instead she drew her full bottom lip between her teeth and waited.
He slowly ran his fingers over her bare stomach almost getting lost in the silkiness of it.
“Are you sure that you want to get into another bet with me? I’m already going to win this bet. Do you really want to get into another with me?”
He was ready to prove that there was more than a strong sexual pull between them. His whole being seemed to be waiting for her response. All he needed was the word, and Headley would be screaming his name.
“You’re a smug something, aren’t you?” Headley asked running her hand down the middle of his chest. “How do you know I’m not faking my need for you?”
His lips recaptured her, more demanding this time. Parting her lips, he thrust his tongue inside and devoured its softness. He had to prove he was the only man for her. A low growl erupted from his throat when Headley’s arms wrapped around his neck and her hips grounded against his.
Tearing his mouth away, he nibbled a path down her neck while his hands eased between them and he unbuttoned her pants. Slipping a hand inside, he worked two fingers into her wetness.
