I had a blast getting lost in this story."
Twenty-two year old Riley Sears promises herself never to fall in love unless it is with a guy who is long-term boyfriend material. She is not crazy, her psychologist reassures her of that, but when faced with situations she cannot control… Well. Her anxiety skyrockets.
Enter Dominic Mondez, the hottest creature ever to grace pecs and abs. The notorious playboy propositions Riley with the best sex of her life—his words. However, after learning he never sleeps with the same woman twice, Riley’s decision becomes remarkably simple.
No. Way. In. Hell.
Sadly, traversing the murky waters of friends without benefits is far from simple, especially since Dominic is the lead guitarist of local rock band, Mondez. He is also tempestuous, a womanizer, and—even worse—inexplicably jealous. Dominic is bad for Riley in every possible way. Bad, bad, bad.
If only her body would listen.
He was watching
me, I could feel it. My body sensed him long before my head did and started
tingling. Everywhere.
Fuck.
Just the thought
of him made my heart pound. Traitorous thing. It merrily rammed against my
ribcage as soon as I pictured his tall, muscular body and dishevelled, russet
hair. My fingers itched to reach out and delve through the soft strands—they
remembered what it felt like to tug down on them as he groaned into my open
mouth—but I shifted in my seat and sat on them instead. I wasn’t going down
that road again, hell no. I was done.
D.O.N.E.
A low chuckle
cut through the muted sounds of heavy rock music emanating from inside, its
gravely sound resonating with my downstairs department, causing a deep blush to
stain my cheeks.
Clearly, I
wasn’t fooling anyone.
What in the name
of sweet baby Jesus is he even doing here?
I tried so hard
to focus on what Sebastian was saying. Thankfully, he held up his end of the
conversation despite my unexpected inability to formulate any words. We’d been
sitting together for a while without a single awkward pause so I nodded,
smiled, and even laughed when required. To be fair, it was a pretty decent
pick-up attempt. Well, until he showed up.
Blue eyes burned
my skin.
You don’t own
me, you don’t own me, you don’t—
I swallowed,
steeled myself and then glanced across at him.
Own me.
Dominic was
leaning against the wall, his black, button-down shirt almost bursting at the
seams. I blamed those insanely strong pecs and biceps. Honestly, they were
huge. And the way his dark blue jeans hung enticingly low off narrow hips…
Well. It should be illegal. He was going to give someone—AKA me—a cardiac
arrest if he wasn’t careful.
I shook my head.
With a bottle of beer in one hand and a buxom blonde in the other— this one
looked nastier than most—the guy was the physical embodiment of everything I
despised. Truly.
If only my body
would listen.
Raising the
drink to full, kissable lips, he tipped his head back, piercing gaze still
locked on me. He then wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, a flicker of
emotions I couldn’t identify crossing his face when he noticed my breath catch.
The girl must
have registered his distraction too because she started rubbing herself up
against him like an overly aroused limpet. Gross. He broke contact with me and
looked down at her, a dark smile tugging his lips. After murmuring something in
her ear and slapping her on the behind, she giggled. I looked away, that
familiar painful knot forming in my stomach once more.
Damn you,
Dominic Mondez. Damn you to hell.
