Strong ties aren't easily broken...
First loves have the ability to fill us with hope and then shatter us when they end. Some people can pick up the pieces and move on. Others simply learn how to exist as a fragment of the person that they used to be.
Shane “Mack” MacAllister is one of the ones simply existing. His wife Ella died at a young age, leaving him alone and broken. Shane knew he’d never be able to give himself to another, believing there was nothing left to give. That is until a young, feisty doctor blazed into his life and made him rethink letting someone into what’s left of his tattered heart.
Dr. Megan Huntley has devoted her life to taking care of others, ever since her twin sister was brutally murdered. She might not have been able to save her sister, but she has made it her mission to help other victims. Long hours in the Emergency Room and volunteer work at the Rape Crisis Center leave little time for relationships. When Megan meets the rugged and handsome Shane MacAllister, she decides to throw caution to the wind and take the police detective for a ride. Too bad she can’t get him out of her head… or her life.
Will Shane and Megan be bound together by true love? Or will past loves and tragedy tear them apart?
REVIEW
REVIEW
4 Stars
Shane MacAllister is a ride hard and put 'em away dirty kind of guy. Mack, as he's known, is looking for a good time and a good time only. His past is still present and there is only room for one. Enter Megan. If there was ever a female to match Mack's sexual appetite and need for space, Megan is it. Just looking for a good time, Megan makes sure Mack knows he was a once-in-the-supply-closet fling. When Fate mingles their futures professionally, can either remain hands off? Or will the walls they've each built start to crumble? Can either survive when the truth comes out?
I must hand the award to 'jaw dropping first sentences' to Jessica! Heck by sentence two she had made a fan for life :) Enough said about that, just pick this exquisite little book up and you will know! It was so hard for me to give four stars to this book and only one reason convinced me... No man. Ever. Ever. Could say/do those things that Mack did to ANYONE that I know and have that female falling over themselves in just a short while... without groveling or better explanation. I needed more relationship in the end and although I love Megan, I didn't feel I was given the information to understand her choices. Regardless of this, I loved this dang book! I even read a few pages out loud to the hubby just because they were so HOOOOTTTT! Thanks for the great read.
I will be looking forward to ALL YOUR FUTURE WORKS!!!!!

Releasing September 30, 2014
Using
the pearls, I pulled her over to the dining room table. My hands on her waist
helped her up on the table where I positioned her on her knees with her back
facing me. The only thing she wore besides the choker was a sexy pair of heels
that I made her put on before we started. The loop of pearls rested in her ass
crack and the heels of the shoes pressed into the curves of her ass. She was
quite simply perfection. I could have stared at her posed like this for hours.
Pulling
on the pearls her head came back, giving me perfect access to her neck. I ran
my tongue along her skin, feeling goose bumps form on the flesh.
“Do
you like being at my mercy?” My voice was low and full of lust. I loved that she
had this effect on me.
“Yes,”
she whispered.
“Touch
yourself, Megan. Rub that clit for me.”
She
immediately obeyed. Her breath hitched when I pinched her nipples hard at the
same time I bit down on the section of skin where her neck and shoulder met.
“Are
you wet?” I continued to roll her nipples between my thumb and forefinger.
“Yes,”
she answered after several long seconds.
“Show
me how wet. Dip your finger inside and then bring it to my lips.”
She
dutifully obeyed, rubbing her slick digit across my bottom lip before I sucked
it into my mouth. Releasing her finger, I instructed her to go back to touching
herself. Grabbing a bottle of lube from my jacket pocket, I poured it down her
ass crack. Her body trembled as my finger teased her puckered hole before
slipping past the ring of muscles. I moved it in and out at a slow pace.
“You’re
beautiful. Do you know that?”
Her
only answer was for her head to fall forward and a ragged breath to leave her
lungs.
“One
day I’m going to fuck you here. You like that idea. I can tell.”
She
nodded, so I picked up the pace and continued talking low to her. “Tell me how
bad you want my cock right now. How bad you want me to fuck you. Make me crazy,
buttercup. Make me want to tear you in two.”
Standing
at the bar, I flagged down the bartender and ordered two beers. Waiting for my
change, I jumped when warm breath danced against the skin of my neck. “Tell
your friend you’re leaving. I want
you naked and lying on your bed in exactly thirty minutes.” The word friend was
said like it tasted bad.
“And
if I say no?” The words came out breathlessly as my body tingled with
anticipation.
“Punishment.”
A full body shiver worked through me. One word, highly effective.
“I
can’t waste my beer,” I argued.
Mack
positioned his hands on either side of my body and leaned into my back, getting
as close as he could to me. My belly pressed into the bar, and I thought he
might kiss me, but after several seconds he plucked a bottle from in front of
me. “Now you have no excuse.” I jumped when he landed a smack on my butt, and
then I was watching his back saunter away with my beer.
Still
reeling from what just happened, I shook my head and followed him to the
backroom. The whole way I argued with myself over whether or not I was going to
do as he said. On the one hand, I really wanted my fix of him. It was one of
the reasons I had come out tonight. Okay, it was actually the reason. On the other hand, I hadn’t seen John in a really long
time, and I didn’t like the idea of Mack making me leave when he wanted me to.
And the threat of punishment wasn’t so much of a deterrent, but rather
compelled me to want to disobey him.
Mack
was lowering himself in a seat next to Kara when I hit the room. My heart
skipped a beat at how good he looked. His tight white t-shirt stretched across
his chest, and his long legs were clad with worn blue jeans. He leaned back in
the chair and stretched his leg out in front of him, crossing them at the
ankle. He looked casual and laidback, but his eyes were avidly watching me with
an attentiveness that until that point I’d only seen him use in the bedroom. It
was enough to convince me to leave.
“Didn’t
you get yourself one?” John asked when I handed him his beer.
“Nah.
Got called into work. I’m off on Sunday if you want to come over for dinner.
I’ll make sauce.”
His
grin was infectious and I found myself smiling even though my insides were
knotted after my conversation with Mack. “I could never pass up your sauce.
I’ll bring a bottle of wine.” John leaned in and kissed my cheek. “I’m glad I
ran into you. I was afraid after all this time away you just didn’t want to see
me anymore.” Even though his tone was joking, I knew he meant the words. After
our history, I couldn’t blame him for being concerned.
“Never,”
I said with conviction. “I really have to go. I’ll see you Sunday.”
“Sunday.”
I
turned on my heel and pushed through the crowd towards the exit. Looking over
my shoulder, my eyes met Mack’s and I swear I felt his gaze straight down to my toes.
