Synopsis
Alec
Reed, the drummer for Chasing Ruin, has secrets…lots of them. He can’t even
remember a day without them because it all started before he was born. He’s
spent his life trying to outrun his past, until he ends up back in the town
where it all began.
Violet
Emerson knows exactly where her life is going and exactly what she wants until
Alec Reed walks into her life. With his dark tattoos and his sexier than sin
eyes, Alec is everything her parents warned her about. She knows she should
keep her distance, but something about him sucks her in and she can’t let go.
Excerpt
He pried her fingers away from his hips and pulled
her shirt over her head. His white-hot gaze seeped into her pours making her
tremble. She reached out to pull him against her, but he wrapped his hands
around her wrists, pinning her hands next to her hips on the kitchen counter.
“Don’t move. Let me see you,” he said as his fingers whispered across the tops
of her breasts so lightly her skin pebbled under his touch. “Do know how sexy
you are?”
“Not sexy,” she mumbled because she didn’t think of
herself that way. Cute, attractive, pretty maybe, but sexy she was not. Sexy
was reserved for beautifully styled woman on the cover of a magazine with
perfect clothes and hair. She didn’t have either and she really didn’t care
before this moment. “Not compared to you.”
Alec chuckled as his lips twisted into a cocky grin.
“You don’t know what you’re talking about.” He reached around her back
unclasping her bra, sliding the straps down her shoulders with a reverential
swipe of his fingers.
Her eyes fluttered as she arched toward. “You’re so
out of my league. We’re not even in the same hemisphere.” She was the girl next
door, whereas he was larger than life, living in LA, probably brushing up
against stars, attending functions she couldn’t even fathom for his job at the agency.
She wasn’t meant for that type of life.
His hands paused, no longer moving and she opened
her eyes.
“What’s wrong?” she asked.
“Don’t say that. It’s not true.”
She opened her mouth to object, but he placed his
finger over her lips.
“If anyone isn’t good enough here it me.” Darkness
flashed across his face. He had secrets lots of them, she realized and a tinge
of unease slithered down her spine. “I’m not a good person, Violet, but when I
look at you, I want to be.” He looked up at the ceiling momentarily. “Maybe
that counts for something,” he mumbled, his voice almost inaudible.
