Bedding the Bad Boy

This bad boy is ready to work some
magic…
Identical twin and Las Vegas performer Max Dalton has always been the number one bad boy in his family, and he’s appreciated the women and fame that comes along with his reputation.
Grace Sinclair is on a mission when she comes to Vegas, one that involves asking Max, her best friend’s brother-in-law, to give her the pleasure no man’s ever been able to. She suspects Max has more layers than he lets people see, but she’s determined to keep her heart safe even as she offers him her body.
What neither of them plan on is love—or the triangle the media stirs up with Max’s blonde bombshell actress friend.
Will Grace see beyond Max’s bad boy façade long enough to trust him with her heart? And will Max figure out what he really wants before he loses the one woman who makes him believe in love again?

Excerpt:
“What the hell, Grace? Why are you running from me?”
She gulped. The feel of his hands gripping her
arms—gently, but firmly—made her shiver. She pasted a smile on her face. “Oh,
hi Max. I’m not running, Sugar. It was just time for me to leave.”
He let her go and crossed his arms over his chest.
“Uh-huh. And you didn’t hear me calling you?”
“You called me?” she asked, eyes wide, her tone
obviously forced. Lord, she was such a horrible liar.
Slower than molasses going uphill in January, his gaze
traveled down her body, taking in her outfit. A rose-colored halter, black
skinny jeans and heels. Definitely club worthy and sexier than anything he’d
ever seen her wear. When his eyes finally met hers again, she couldn’t help but
gasp.
His expression was hot. Scorching. And unless she was
mistaken, he looked like he wanted, really needed, what the brunette had said
he was very good at providing. Fast and furious sex with a woman all night
long. Sex with her.
Before she could stop herself, her gaze traveled to
the front of his pants where sure enough…
The evidence of his obvious desire ignited her own.
She’d come here for a reason and now she had her
opening.
The question was whether she was going to reach out
and take it.
The answer was a resounding no.
She couldn’t.
Couldn’t endure being in Max’s arms only to have him
witness her inability to do what so many other women seemed to do so easily.
Besides, although he’d checked her out and seemed to like what he saw, it was
probably just reflex. She was dressed up. He was on the prowl. More
importantly, she’d actually been running from him. His hunter instincts had
kicked in was all.
She started to back away. “I’m sorry, Max, but I have
to go. It was good seeing you again.”
“Damn it, wait.”
At the commanding tone in his voice, she instinctively
stopped. She held her breath as he walked toward her. That breath whooshed out
of her lungs when Max lifted a hand and cupped the side of her neck. She gasped
at how delicious his touch felt, how it was both tender and inescapable, and
his eyes darkened to a deep burnished jade.
“What’s going on, baby? Why are you here?”
The way he stared at her, intense and deep, coupled
with the way he called her baby, almost made her knees buckle. They certainly
quivered, as did that tender spot between her legs.
Heat washed over her then
exploded when he skimmed his thumb across the line of her jaw.
The way he was
looking at her… as if he saw something in her that others didn’t, as if he
liked what he saw and wanted to spend some time exploring it and hoped that’s
what she wanted too… made a foolish hope start to bloom.
“Grace,” he said. “Answer me.”
“I—” She licked her lips, noting how his gaze dropped
to her mouth as she did so. “I came to ask you…”
When she paused again, he leaned closer, until she
could feel his breaths on her mouth, like tender air kisses teasing her with
all that could come next. “Grace, I know you’re having a problem with
something. You don’t know me well, but I think you know I’ll help you if I can.
So tell me. What did you come to ask me?”
She took a deep breath and wondered if she was really
going to say it, right here on the street. But the way he was looking at her,
the way he was touching her… she wanted more of that. She wanted it too much.
Her gaze flitted away from his. “Max, I can’t…”
He raised his other hand so he was cupping both sides
of her neck now. It made her feel boxed in. Trapped.
And she never wanted him to let her go.
Instinctively, she gripped both his wrists.
“Grace. What did you want to ask me?”
“You’re being far too bold, Max. I’m not going to—”
“What did you want to ask me, Grace?”
“Will you please stop—”
“Dammit, just tell me.”
“I want you to give me an orgasm!”
They both gasped.
Oh God, she’d actually blurted it out.
