Synopsis:
Ever wondered if Ransom Scott would get his happily ever after? Find
out February 16th!
It started with a drink. It turned into a promise. Ransom
Scott lost his heart the day the woman he loved chose another man. Or so he
thought. Estranged from his brother, distancing himself from the world, he’s
been drowning his sorrows in cheap booze and women…determined to forget. His
world is falling apart, until a beautiful woman decides to take a chance on
him. Dani Deviche is as bewitching as she is innocent. Full of youth and
vitality, she captivates him. Challenges him. She’s everything Ransom never
thought to look for in the opposite sex, and he can’t get enough. When a
promise of friendship turns into something more, can Ransom fulfill his end of
the bargain, or will a secret from Dani’s past destroy his last chance at
happiness?
**Author’s Note** This book was written as a compliment to the
Forbidden Trilogy. However, it can be read as a standalone.
FORBIDDEN VALENTINE
EXCERPT
Dani couldn’t catch her breath. Ransom was insatiable, devouring her
mouth like a man starved. She curled her arms around his neck, throwing herself
into his dark kiss, exhilarated by his need for her, and hers for him. Of
the few boyfriends she’d had, none had affected her like this man—a near
stranger. Someone who was, as far as she could tell, damaged. And not an
average, run-of-the-mill kind of damage that nearly everyone in the world
experienced. This was soul-deep. His heart hadn’t just broken. It’d been
shattered. And it was obvious to her that he was desperately searching for
something to numb the pain. Help him forget. He’d chosen booze, and because of
her own past demons, she hated it. Which was why, when he’d confessed his
affliction, she’d drawn a line, putting an end to his self-abuse. Her need
to help, to fix, was in full-effect. Her ex always said it was her worst
quality. Told her on numerous occasions that she was a fool for caring so much.
That it would be her downfall. Maybe she was and maybe it would be, but at
least she would know that, in whatever small way, she’d helped. And even
if Ransom didn’t know it yet, he needed her. But maybe not in the capacity
he was currently aiming for. As much as Dani loved the feel of his mouth
on hers, his tongue dipping and diving into every unchecked corner, stoking a
fire inside that threatened to blaze out of control, she knew if she allowed
this to continue, she’d be taking advantage. “Ransom.” With regret, she
broke the sensational kiss, determined to end this before it went too far, but
Ransom only detoured, licking and nibbling a path down the side of her neck
that made her shiver. “You taste so good,” he murmured against her heated
skin. “So sweet. And you smell like heaven.” Obsession, actually. She’d
picked up a bottle on clearance following the holidays…What the hell was she
going on about? She needed to put an end to this madness before it got out of
control. And with the way her body was responding to his every touch and
caress, that moment was fast approaching. Tunneling her fingers through
his hair, Dani formed a tight grip, intending to pull him away, only to hold
him closer as his warm, wet mouth found the top of her breast. The way he
lavished her body with attention, feasting on every inch of her flesh with an
almost feral passion, was addictive. Dani had never had a man react to her that
way. It was as if he couldn’t get enough. His hands gripped her hard, one
around her hip, the other her right butt cheek. His mouth skated across her
cleavage, worshiping her as he forged a path toward her hardened nipples. And
his body—hard in all the right places—pinned her in place, demanding
fealty that she was tempted to give. Her back hit a wall, rattling a
painting, and his knee wedged between her thighs. Heat seared her, clenching
her core, and Dani moaned. As his hand left the curve of her ass and slipped
around her thigh, her head began to lighten, her thoughts growing foggy.The
only noise between them was that of heavy breathing and the soft lapping of his
tongue. When she felt his fingers pass over the top of her thigh and sweep up
the center, painting a vivid picture of what he planned to do to her, she
clenched her eyes shut and hated herself for what she was about to do.
