Blurb:
As a computer hacker, she demands justice.
As a woman, she craves two powerful and commanding men.
Shana’s been hacking one
of Manhattan’s most corrupt executives, making him pay for what he’s done to
his victims. Using her skills, she convinces Mike and Cody to hire her at their
intelligence-gathering firm, where intimate details help their clients.
Never has Mike met a
woman as delicious as Shana. Smart as hell, curvy and assured, she’d be a
delightful challenge in bed. Cody’s carnal hunger is equally intense. He and
Mike want to know everything about her.
She won’t divulge the
secrets of her past. All she can offer is unquenchable desire and her heart.
During weeks of
shameless lust and pleasure, Mike and Cody peel away the layers of Shana’s
life. The stunning truth changes everything. They’ll do all that they can to
keep her safe…and in their arms.
Adult Excerpt
Shana sucked
her bottom lip.
Leaning
closer to her, Mike murmured, “Is that a yes?”
Against her
better judgment, Shana nodded faintly. She’d send them in the opposite
direction of her place then hop on the subway and go home.
Her stomach
growled again.
Straightening,
Mike brought something up on his phone and handed the device to her. “That
menu’s from an all-night deli not too far from here. Decide what you want and
I’ll call the order in.”
Shana
resisted the urge to sniff his phone to see if it smelled like him. On unsteady
legs, she followed him and Cody out of the suite to the bank of gold elevators.
Mottled black marble graced the floors and walls of the expansive hall. Art
Deco chandeliers rained gentle light on them and the numerous plants. Cody
stood to her left, Mike to her right.
She pretended
to read the menu. The words swam in front of her. Mike and Cody’s proximity,
size and heavenly scents overwhelmed.
The elevator
dinged. Her heart jumped. She entered the roomy space, its walls and ceilings
lined with gold-flecked mirrors.
Cody and Mike
studied her reflection in the glass.
She did the
same with them.
After
pressing the button for the lobby, Mike inclined his head to the phone.
“Anything look good?”
Shana had
forgotten about the menu. The elevator’s display showed the floors ticking
down. Each whooshing sound marked him and Cody getting closer to taking her
where they thought she lived. Them trying to find out more about her that they
shouldn’t. Perspiration ran down the back of Shana’s neck and between her
breasts. She looked from Mike to Cody then back.
Mike smiled.
“What?”
She moved
into him without meaning to, her arms wreathed around his neck, her free hand
pushing his head toward her. He smelled of coffee and need. Their lips touched.
His silky and warm, his cheeks deliciously rough.
A surge of
something Shana had never experienced rolled through her. Moaning at the
intense pleasure, she brushed her mouth over his and slipped her tongue inside.
Wet heat greeted her, tasting clean and fresh. Her knees sagged, bumping his.
Mike wrapped
his arm around her waist and hauled her close, his rigid cock snuggled against
her cunt. He buried his fingers in her hair, holding her still so she couldn’t
get away.
Shana had no
thought of escape. She melted into him.
They kissed
noisily, their movements too eager. Elbows and shoulders bumped the walls in
their attempt to get closer, to touch as much of each other as they could, her
hands roaming his ass, his fondling and squeezing her breasts. When they were
both out of breath, Shana pulled her mouth free, stumbled away from him and
moved into Cody’s arms.
He backed her
against the wall, his body trapping hers as Mike’s had. Cody kissed Shana’s
temple and cheek, then the side of her mouth before he got down to business.
She inhaled
sharply at his tongue filling her, his hand on her breast, her tightened nipple
pressed against his palm. He squeezed gently before getting a little rough,
then paused as if to gauge her reaction.
With her hand
on his tight ass, Shana pressed him closer, wanting more.
He fondled
her for all he was worth and deepened their kiss, his stubble rasping her skin as
Mike’s had. The slight irritation fueled Shana’s passion. They kissed until the
elevator came to a gentle stop then dinged.
The doors
hissed open.
Shana
staggered from him, her mouth still wet from his kiss and Mike’s. She’d mussed
his hair. Cody’s tie was askew. Backing out of the elevator, she murmured,
“Good night.”
Before either
of them could respond, Shana turned to flee. No way could she ever come back
here.
“Whoa.” Mike
grabbed her wrist as he had in the suite.
The guard at
the front desk leaned up in his chair. His beer belly hung over his belt. His
expression said the security cameras had shown him what had just gone down in
the elevator. “Everything okay, Mr. Russo?”
“Is my driver
out there?” Mike asked.
The guard
craned his neck to see. “Yes sir, he is.”
“Please tell
him we’ll be out in a few minutes.”
“Yes sir.”
The
middle-aged man hurried outside. Mike held Shana’s wrist gently but firmly.
“Good night?”
His lower lip
shone with the moisture she’d left on him. Several locks dangled over his forehead.
Unable to help herself, Shana eased them back. “I need to go home.”
Mike’s gaze
remained lifted to her smoothing his hair. “Yeah, we get that.” Cody had just
joined them. Mike spoke quietly. “You’re taking off after what just happened in
the elevator?”
She lowered
her hand. “It shouldn’t have.”
Cody frowned,
his expression a mixture of confusion and disappointment. “Why not? Clearly, we
all enjoyed it. You did, right?”
More than
anything Shana could recall. Their strength was thrilling and protective, an
amazing combination she longed for but couldn’t risk.
Her throat
tightened. Tears threatened.
Suddenly, she
felt beyond weary and so alone she rested her head against Cody’s shoulder.
Stupid, she knew, but Shana couldn’t help herself.
Cody
hesitated a moment, then ran his hand down her hair. Mike played with her
fingers.
She fought
against smiling and crying. Crap, her emotions were all over the place.
“You okay?”
Cody murmured.
Shana nodded
then shook her head then nodded once more.
“You’re
hungry and tired,” Mike said, speaking softly. “You’re not yourself.”
She laughed,
unable to stop. “How can you say that? You don’t know me.”
“We want to,”
Cody whispered.
