Blurb:
He's her first. He's her everything. He's her . . . stepbrother.Kat has always been a good girl. She studies hard and never stays out too late. But when sitting in a pub on her birthday, she realizes she's a nineteen-year-old virgin who's never really lived. And she wants tonight to be the night that changes.
Then she sees him walk in. He's tall, dark, handsome, and straight out of her deepest fantasies. His voice makes her knees feel weak, and when he smiles, she imagines him doing wicked things to her in bed. From the look in his eyes, she knows he's imagining it too. So when he asks if he can walk her home, she hears herself whisper yes . . .

Excerpt:
“I find you fascinating,” Tristan said. Their
faces were so close, his lips a mere breath from hers, and it made her head
spin a little with a strange, excited dizziness. His gaze dropped to her lips
as his voice softened to a low murmur. “I made a promise tonight, and I won’t
break it, even it if bloody well kills me.”
Kat shivered and when she spoke her voice was
husky. “But after tonight?”
With a curve of his lips, Tristan leaned in half
an inch closer. “After tonight…I could fuck you here, in this bed and leave you
so sated you’d wouldn’t want to get up for days. The things I could do to you
to make you purr, make you moan and beg… After being with me, no other man
would satisfy you.” The tips of their noses brushed as he leaned a tiny bit
closer. Every muscle in her body tensed in heady anticipation, and her heart
thudded against her ribs so hard it hurt.
Those images his words created, his body on top
of hers, his weight trapping her while he owned her in every way…why did it
sound so wonderful and frightening all at the same time?
Kat’s lips parted, but no words came out at
first. He seemed like a man who before
now got everything he ever wanted. She didn’t want to be another thing he got
simply because he wanted it. She was a woman worth fighting for, and Kat wanted
him to earn it. Her father used to say “a good man will climb to the highest
branch for the ripest apple, rather than pluck the low hanging fruit.” She
deserved a man who was willing to work for her.
“But not tonight,” she replied softly, almost
teasing. Her heart pounded at a wild pace and her hands shook as she clenched
them together.
As though it were the most natural thing in the
world, he slid an arm around her waist, pulling her into his body. Her hands
came up on instinct, settling on his chest, but she didn’t push him away.
“Not
tonight,” he agreed. “But that one kiss at the Pickerel? It was only the
beginning.” His arm around her waist tightened.
His words, so determined and confidant, made her
shiver. There was no denying his confidence was appealing, but this was her sex
life they were talking about. She had never been the type of girl to just give
in to a guy, so why was saying yes so tempting?
