Blurb:
Zach Tyler has been a freelance operative with the Agency for a long time. He's worked with Nicola Paris's father often, and respects him completely. But, there is something about Nicola that's gotten under Zach's skin, and past a lifetime's worth of defenses that were needed to protect him and keep away those he might care too much about from being caught by his dangerous life. But, an unexpected night of passion brings a lot of truths to the surface, and he can no longer deny how much he loves Nicki, or how much she loves him. As their passion explodes in a frenzy of desire, little does he know that the real danger is not from his work, but from the shadow that watches them... and her desire for Tyler might take away the most precious thing in his life now...
Excerpt:
Zach drew her head away from his shoulder and smiled into the huge blue eyes. His gaze drifted over smooth, contoured features, admiring with new perceptiveness the striking beauty in Nicola’s face. His look dropped to the slightly parted lips that had haunted him so frequently during the past few days, and he leaned closer to cover Nicola’s mouth with his.
The contact was electric and Zach melted into the caress, his tongue slipping between Nicola’s lips to taste again the tantalizing warmth of her mouth. Nicola met the thrust of Zach’s tongue with hers and drew him deeper into the kiss as she shifted closer to him and molded her body to his. Long minutes later, they broke the kiss with a gasp and Zach looked into the softened blue eyes and smiled.
“Are you sure about this, Nicola?” Every part of him longed to ignore the query, but he truly needed to know that she was certain of exactly what they were contemplating with this change in their long friendship. Zach was already extremely conscious of how badly he wanted to be with her again, but he wasn’t willing to risk regrets on Nicola’s part. He knew in his heart that he was already bound to her, and that he wanted nothing more at that moment than to make this a true beginning for them. But, only if it was what Nicola wanted, too.
Nicola couldn’t trust her voice, her head was spinning with the combination of confusion and excitement. The intense kiss had reawakened the hungry passion she’d felt nights ago, and she was left shaking with the desire she felt for more of the intoxicating contact. She drew in a quivering breath and very slowly nodded, her eyes locked with Zach’s.
“Why?” Why are you pushing this? A tiny voice in Tyler’s head whispered. He heard the answer, as well, but shied away from it just then. The hesitation was voiced before he could think to stop it.
“Because I love you.” Nicola closed her eyes once the words were out, as surprised at having said them as Zach appeared to be at hearing them. “I think I’ve loved you for a long time, Zach. I just never knew anything like this could happen with us.” His hand under her chin made her eyes open again to meet Zach’s dark gaze.
“I love you, too, Nicki,” he whispered. He was almost surprised by how very sincerely he felt and meant the words, then it disappeared in the glow of happiness he read in her smile. His arm was still around her shoulders and he led her to a secluded, dark area of the park.
“Zach, where are we going?”
He laughed at the tiny quiver in her voice, part excitement, and part apprehension.
“Don’t you trust me, baby?”
“I don’t know if I should.”
“You shouldn’t,” he assured her, very seriously.
