Synopsis
She’s going to break all of his rules...
Tech Sergeant John O’Donnell was never fond of his hometown. Too
many reminders of poverty, his rocky family life, and the girl he was
never allowed to have. Now he has exactly two weeks to sort out his
mother’s finances before he heads back overseas. Two weeks that
he’s determined to spend as far from his best friend’s little
sister as possible.
Alea Heling has a naughty streak a mile wide. Sweet and simple?
Boring. She’s been craving a bad boy like John since their
wild days together in high school, and this time, she’s not taking
no for an answer. But with every panty-meltingly hot encounter, Alea
forgets one hard, cold reality—this soldier won’t let a fortnight
turn into forever...and forever might be exactly what they both need.

Excerpt
“Thank
you for your help,” he said. His voice was rusty, but clear
enough.
She
gasped in mock shock. “He speaks! Five words and it wasn’t
rude!”
Against
his will, his lips twitched. She always could make him smile when he
least wanted to.
She
leaned forward, a mischievous twinkle in her eyes. “Let’s try
something else. I know it’s dangerous—I mean, your head might
explode or something—but I say we risk it. Give me a compliment.”
“Fishing?”
he drawled.
She
tsked. “That wasn’t a compliment. You’re supposed to say
something nice. About me.”
He
didn’t answer. Mostly because he was thinking of all the things he
wanted to say. That her skin looked soft and her eyes were a
changeable hazel that always kept him guessing. That her tits were
round and full, just begging to be nipped. That she was small
compared to his 6'3" frame, but she had legs long enough to wrap
around his waist as he buried himself inside her. And that red hair,
a bright red flash of color on her perfect body, was a scream of
danger he lusted after.
While
those thoughts spun through his mind, her expression soured. With a
sigh, she grabbed his empty beer bottle and held it before his eyes.
“Say something nice to me and I’ll get you another beer.”
She
shook the bottle a little to grab his attention. It didn’t work. He
was too busy watching how the breeze pressed her blouse flat against
her chest. Her bra had lace, which meant texture, and he wondered
what sound she’d make if he tugged it back and forth against her
nipples.
“John–-”
“That’s
a nice b-blouse.” Damn it, he’d almost said bra.
Her
mouth flattened with a sigh. “I thought you’d like it.”
Alea
leaned forward as she pushed to her feet. A curl of brown hair
tumbled forward, pushing past the tiny gold hoop in her ear to dangle
right before him. Without thinking, he grabbed the lock, winding it
around his fingers. It wasn’t even long enough to pull into his
fist. But it was close enough to hold her still. Her eyes widened in
surprise and her mouth—those plump, pink lips—formed a perfect O.
God,
he’d been gone so long. And she was so much of a woman
now.
“John?”
He
wanted to say something, but he hadn’t the words. Just a thick
want. He took a breath, trying to clear his head, but all he
tasted on the air was her. A citrus scent, so appropriate to Florida
and so missed when he was in Afghanistan. But there was another scent
on top. The taste of woman, hot and spicy despite her demure yellow
shirt.
He
should let her go, but his fingers just wouldn’t cooperate. He
tightened his hold. And when her hair started to slip through his
grip, he pushed forward in his chair. He deserved one taste. He
sacrificed so his country would be safe. One kiss was nothing when
stacked up against that.
But
if he was going to take her mouth—and he damn sure was—then he
was going to take something else too...
