You can run, but you can’t hide…from your problems.
As the baby of the family, Seth’s got the Youngest Child Syndrome down pat. Except, he doesn’t want to act like a spoiled brat and cause problems everywhere he goes. He needs to start by talking out his issues with his best friend, Evan—until he can’t. Evan’s gone missing, his boss murdered. Evan might be a liar—something Seth hasn’t forgiven him for—but he’s not a murderer. Life’s about to get messier when his brother asks him to find Evan with help from the new deputy. Pepper’s got a feisty attitude, a don’t-mess-with-me persona, and the beauty of a goddess. If he’s not careful, he might fall in love. But Seth suspects Pepper’s lying about something, too. And lying is an unforgivable offense.
Excerpt . . .
She still hadn’t emerged from her bedroom. Not that it took him long to prepare everything. Five minutes, if that.
What was taking her so long?
He should just take a seat and wait for her.
Except he found himself wandering down the hallway in search of her bedroom. It didn’t take long to find. It was a small house.
Her bedroom door was open. She stood in front of her closet with her back toward him in only a pair of pink sweatpants and a white bra.
He wasn’t sure if she was aware he stood in her doorway, but as a gentleman, he should’ve turned around and waited for her in the living room.
But seeing her creamy, soft skin, the smooth curves of her body, the exquisite picture before him, he found his feet moving forward instead of backward.
The air crackled with intensity. Desire filled the room like heavy smoke.
He stopped inches from her, yet didn’t touch her. He heard her inhale deeply, indicating she knew he was there. But she didn’t turn around.
Raising his hand, he glided it as if he were caressing her from her shoulder down her arm, yet he didn’t touch.
“God, you’re so beautiful. I want to touch you so badly.”
“You shouldn’t be in here.”
“I know. I didn’t know what was taking you so long.”
She stood rigid.
The last thing he wanted to do was make her uncomfortable, but damn, he was dying to touch her. To make her feel what he felt—charged with pleasure waiting to be unleashed.
“I’m sorry. I’ll wait for you in the living room.”
His hand hovered near her shoulder, then he snatched it away and turned around. He got three steps before she spoke.
“I said you shouldn’t be in here, not that I wanted you to leave.”
He turned around slowly.
She was facing him, her eyes dilated with the same intense pleasure he felt flowing through his veins.
His jaw clenched, his hands aching to pull her into his arms.
“What do you want?” He took a step in her direction. “Because I want you. I want to touch you until your body has memorized my touch.”
He didn’t know where those words came from, but they were true. He wanted to claim her until she begged him never to leave.
Less than a week, and he wanted this woman with so much passion it physically hurt to think he might never have her.
Her hands reached up and slid one strap down her arm. Then she reached for the other side and slid that one down, too. Her bra hung on, barely.
“I want you to touch me.” She bit her lip before removing the bra completely.
He didn’t hesitate. He didn’t give her time to change her mind, although her eyes said she wasn’t planning on it.
He pulled her into his arms and kissed her like it would be the last kiss they ever shared.
