She
didn’t know what she was missing…until he found her.
Maxwell
Knight was positively trouble, dangerously good-looking, and
seductively charming. He
was everything Jeanella didn’t need in her life. Only Max
didn’t see it that way.
His
pursuit was relentless, making her even more determined to push him
away. All she wanted was security, a career, and love that was
everlasting.
Fresh
out of college, life was simple and plain for Jeanella Mefferd, but
she liked it that way. Every part of her life was smooth sailing; her
friends, her job, and even the guy she’d started dating. Then one
night, while at dinner with her best friend, she spotted someone who
made her feel things she’d never felt before just by his mere
presence—dangerous, heart pounding, breathless heat. Thinking she
would never see him again, she brushed it off, but when she started
to run into him unexpectedly, all she could think of was how he made
her feel with his sweet flirtations. Everything about Maxwell Knight
screamed trouble, especially when she found out he was her new boss’s
son. Now, heading to a New York fashion show she’d dreamt about
since she was a child, would she be able to focus on her career
instead of Max, who had been scheduled to attend with her? As much as
she tried to forget their encounters, his good looks, charm, smooth
words, and determination to win her over gravitated her toward him.
The next thing she knew, he was utterly consuming her, mind and body,
and in places she’d never thought possible. Would she be willing to
step over the boundary and risk her safety net? Was she willing to
take advice from her best friend and love hard and risk getting hurt,
rather than not really love at all and possibly miss out on finding
something great?

“I think this is my stop,” he
muttered, looking straight at me. “I’m not wanted in there. What
do you think?” He arched his brows, and his tone held a note of
challenge.
Huh? He wants to go in with me? I
gasped silently, as I was still lost in his eyes. “I think the
women in there will throw themselves at you.” I couldn’t believe
I’d said those words. I couldn’t take it back. What was I doing,
flirting with him?
He
seemed to like what he heard. His arms reached out, his muscles
flexing as he placed one on each side of me on the wall. With nowhere
to go, I was trapped inside the bubble of his arms. He leaned down
toward the left side of my face and brushed my hair with his cheek.
“You smell…delicious,” he whispered. His hot breath shot
tingles to places I hadn’t expected them.
Out of nervousness and habit, my
left index finger flew inside my mouth. Max gave a crooked, naughty
grin and slowly took my hand out of my mouth. “Did you know that
biting one’s finger is an indication one is sexually deprived?”
His words came out slowly, playfully, but hot. “I can fix that for
you, if you’d like.”
He did not just say that to me!
I parted my lips for a good comeback, but I couldn’t find one.
Feeling my chest rise and fall quickly, I tried to control the heated
desire. Sure, he’d helped me once, but that didn’t mean we were
friends, or flirting buddies, or that I would allow him to fix my
sexual deprivation. Oh
God…can guys tell if you haven’t done it in a very long time?
This had to stop or else…oh dear…I wanted to take him with me
into the restroom.
Needing to put a stop to the
heat, I placed my hand on his chest… big mistake. Touching him made
the heat worse, and tingles that were already intensifying burst
through every inch of me. I had to push him away.
As if he knew what I meant to do,
he pulled back, but his eyes did the talking instead. There was no
need for words; I felt his hard stare on my body, as if he was
undressing me with his gorgeous eyes. His gaze was powerful, as if
his eyes were hands; I felt them all over me, completely unraveling
me.
Just
when I thought I was going to faint, his eyes shifted to mine again.
“It was really nice to meet you, Jenna. I’m sure we’ll see each
other again, real soon. I better let you go. Your someone must
be waiting for you. By the
way….” There was a pause as he charmed me with his eyes again.
“You…took my breath away. If I were your someone, I wouldn’t
let you out of my sight for even a second, because someone like me
will surely try to whisk you away.” He winked and left.
I received an eARC copy of this book in return for an honest review. I was totally immersed and addicted to this amazing story and the characters in the story!!! I fell in love with this book from the beginning and fell in love with it even more at the end!!! This author is very good at capturing the attention of her audience and can melt even the coldest of hearts with her words and story telling. This is very well written and a very fast paced story!!! This is a RECOMMENDED MUST read for all heart melting erotica lovers!!! My absolute favorite saying is, “I’m your prescription. Let me be your new addiction". I read that and loved it and had to share!!! Thank you, Mary Ting, for this remarkable story that I will cherish and re-read over and over again!!! This book deserves 10♥s!!
We wanted to try something new and fun, so I asked Mary what Her favorite kitchen utensils are, and here is what she had to tell me....
1. Spatula--this one is most handy when frying.
2. Rice cooker-must have-the fastest way to cook rice.
3. knife--I don't want to use my hand...lol
4. Pamper Chef chopper-- it chops onions for you before you have time to cry. It's also good for carrots and other vegetable too.
5. Oven toaster--I used this for toasting toasts, baking fish and something small.
6. Strainer--I love this when I wash fruits and vegetables.
7. Can opener--can't live without this one. I normally don't use this item because I don't use much can food but you really need one when you do...lol
8. apple cutter--I love this...fast and easy what to cut apples perfectly except when you don't place it on the center...then you get uneven slices.
9. Blender--I don't blend much. I use it to make smoothies. Can't make smoothies without it.
10. Baking trays--sometimes I bake to save time so I can write a chapter or two...lol! so I bake. I like to use already made spices with bags. You can't do this unless you have a tray to support.
M. Clarke aka Mary Ting resides in Southern California with her husband and two
children. She enjoys oil painting and making jewelry. Writing her
first novel, Crossroads Saga, happened by chance. It was a way to
grieve the death of her beloved grandmother, and inspired by a dream
she once had as a young girl. When she started reading new adult
novels, she fell in love with the genre. It was the reason she had to
write one. Why the pen name, M Clarke? She tours with Magic Johnson
Foundation to promote literacy and her children’s chapter book, No
Bullies Allowed.
