Three years have passed since Finley O’Connell
found love and heartbreak in the form of alluring, yet secretive psychology
professor, Cabel Jones. Now a twenty-two-year-old graduate student, Finley
hardly has time to fulfill her role as Cabel’s young new wife.
But when a voluptuous blonde bombshell from
Cabel’s past arrives to fill a teaching position on campus, Finley feels
immediately threatened. Jane Adams wants Cabel Jones back and will stop at
nothing to rekindle romance with her former flame. Jealous and betrayed, Finley
falls into a perilous trap that may cost Cabel his life.
Excerpt
In that moment, I
knew that he had me fooled. I would buy into this façade of a reality where it
didn’t matter if Monty thought we were dead when we were actually alive. I had
faith in a fairytale that we could live in a conspicuous location
inconspicuously. It was all a fantasy, but I wanted so much to believe that we
were safe, that no one would ever find us here, that Cabel and I had escaped
unseen.
But maybe I wasn’t a complete fool. Maybe it was denial not naiveté. Maybe it
was hope in the pipe dream that our life could return to the way it once was.
Either way, I succumbed to the fake world Cabel had created. And I let myself
believe that none of it was too good to be true.
Cabel’s fingers tangled through my hair, as his other hand slipped beneath my
shirt and trailed the length of my naked back. Clinging to him, I clasped my
hands together behind his neck and whimpered when he tugged at my bottom lip.
Cabel groaned at the sound that left my parted lips and pushed me up against
the wall.
My hands searched his torso, rubbing and caressing his skin. His chest. His
abs. His ribs. When Cabel folded his hands through mine and then ripped the
shirt over the top of my head, I couldn’t believe that he was mine. How had I
gotten so lucky?
Cabel placed his hands at my waist and hauled me into the bedroom, where we
collapsed on the mattress together. He stretched out beside me and cradled my
face in his hands, similar to the first time we had made love. I felt his lips
against my neck, as his fingers traveled along the sides of my arms and then my
neck and then my spine.
Right before that pivotal moment, that felt so much like freezing fire and
burning ice, he left the softest kiss on my lips, and I knew he would be
gentle. His frosty blue eyes gazed into mine, loving, caring, trusting. Since
the day I met Cabel Jones, he had taken every part of me, but none that I
hadn’t already been willing to give. As he braided his fingers through mine and
pushed the back of my hands into the mattress, I knew that I had made my
choice.
If he was going to
burn, then I would burn with him.
