Excerpt: Sasha closed her eyes and leaned her head back on the cushion as she thought about the times of being intertwined in his arms as the heat of his skin warmed hers. His deep voice whispering naughty words in her ear or breathing out her name as he climaxed. A tingle coursed between her thighs, and she giggled not believing her mind was taking her there. She breathed in deeply and let out a soft moan as his familiar fragrance engulfed her nostrils. She couldn’t believe daydreaming about him could provoke his scent. “Reminiscing about me?” a dark, seductive voice asked. Sasha’s eyes flew open, landing on Devin and all his magnificent fineness in a dark blue suit and wearing a sinister smile. His commanding presence overpowered the library as he stared down at her. He licked his bottom lip and took a step forward. “What are you doing here?” She was shocked the words flowed out. It took everything she had not to pull him on top of her so he could extinguish the jolts of electricity that pulsed through her. “Well…at first I was coming to show you something in the kitchen but now…I’d rather continue watching you moan and smile. It’s the same relaxed expression you used to wear after the first of many orgasms.” She bounced up from the couch and faced him. “I wasn’t thinking about you.” “Sasha, I know you very well. Your round eyes grow wide as saucers when you’re flustered.” He closed the gap between them and lifted her chin, wearing a haughty smirk as his steady, wicked gaze met hers. “…or lying.” Air caught in her throat at his overwhelming closeness, but she refused to break. She couldn’t let on to how she felt like silly putty in his hands and that she was under his mesmerizing spell. “You don’t know me anymore,” she said, trying to stifle her body from trembling. “Really? I know your lips quiver when you’re nervous…like right now. I know you get so busy with your life that you forget to eat. I know you love dogs, hate cats and have an infatuation with turtles for some odd reason. And I know that spot on the side of your neck, just below your right ear that drives you completely insane.” She groaned, crossing her arms over her chest. “Why are you here and what do you want?” “You. I want you, Sasha.”
