eBook Description: Fate drove devil-may-care Jake Harrigan to Nicolette Oliver's doorstep. Nic can't allow her attraction for Jake to develop. Her goal is to re-establish her career as a dancer. Is it worth the risk to give in to the temptation of Jake's kisses, even on a temporary basis? Would Jake repeat the same mistakes as her late husband? Could she live with the likely end result? Nic had got under his skin that very first night he'd stolen a kiss from her. She was all that Jake wanted, yet his choice of lifestyle and loyalty to Mark, his former camera-man and Nic's late husband, prevented Jake from fostering his attraction to her. Would that be enough for him to keep his distance from the fragile, yet independent, brunette?

A fragrant hint of exotic fruits and flowers wafted around him, soft against the intense heat of the summer night. The storms were there, intermittent in the distance, but there was a more dangerous storm, the one that waged within him, wreaking untold damage to his equilibrium and common sense.

Nic's fingers caressed the back of his neck and toyed with the ends of his hair. She eased a little closer to him, sending his temperature hiking a notch or two.

"If you don't stop that, I won't be responsible for the consequences," he groaned, aware of the soft friction of her body, the light though firm pressure of her thighs against his.

Hazel eyes trained on him. For a few moments, she didn't respond except to momentarily cease the stroking of his neck. With an impish smile she asked, "Stop what? This?" Her fingers continued their stirring caress.

"Or this?" She eased closer and moved against him intimately, like striking a match to dry tinder. His slow burn ignited into a roaring flame, the heat consuming him. He shuddered against her.

"Or maybe this," she said, and rose to her toes. The kiss took him by surprise, but it wasn't the kiss itself, more the sheer audacity of her action. Her open-mouthed warmth as it brushed against his own mouth shook him. His arm slid down until his hand splayed against her bottom, holding her in place.

Were they the only two people in the room?

"There's only one thing I'd like to do to you," he said, moving against her. "But it's better done in private."
