~ Synopsis ~
Kat Kennedy moved to the rugged coast of Maine to start a new life, but encountered much more than she bargained for in dark, dangerous, and seductive Lane Wild…
Desire and temptation smolder before she succumbs to her darkest fantasies with the captivating stranger. She doesn't expect to see him again after an explosive one-night stand leaves her breathless and craving more, but just like lightning in the darkness, he shows up in her life at the most unpredictable moments.
A sensual game of cat and mouse ensues before the attraction between them reaches a fever pitch—the magnetism combustible, the sexual tension nearly unbearable—and Kat finally abandons inhibition and explores the cunning, selfish, and sexual side of a world she's never known.
They have the perfect non-relationship—passion-fueled nights with no strings attached—until life gets real and the past and present collide in a dangerous storm of lust and obsession.
~ Prologue ~
Sunday morning and I felt like ass. Complete and total bullshit ass. Worst hangover of my entire fucking existence.
I stepped through the doors of my small cottage on the beach and headed straight for the bathroom. I needed to get the awful taste of alcohol out of my mouth. I hadn’t gotten so fall-down drunk since I was in high school. That graduation party that Jenny Gordon had had when we drank vodka and juice and I made out with her brother. Every time I closed my eyes that night I saw stars. Actual stars spinning behind my eyelids.
I stepped into the bathroom and assessed myself in the mirror. My cheeks: hollow. My hair: a wild mess, tangled around my shoulders. Dark circles under my eyes and a smudge of mascara rimmed beneath my eyelashes. I looked like hell and I felt like hell, and the actual worst part about it was it wasn’t just me there to witness it. Here I was, stumbling in at six am, fresh from crawling out of someone else’s bed.
What a shit storm I’d created last night.
His wild dark hair and sexy grin slammed into my brain. He’d driven me to distraction at the bar last night. I’d only been in town a few weeks, and I’d stopped in for just one drink. I was keeping to myself, but I couldn’t help but notice his beautiful face and body made for sin throwing darts with a few other guys. His laugh was full and hearty and echoed across the room garnering everyone's attention. The women fawned over him and the guys hung out with him; he was the most popular guy in the pace, commanding the attention of all. And even when I was trying to divert my eyes I couldn’t help but sneak glances.
So I'd had another drink and pretended not to watch that devilishly handsome grin light his face.
“Can I buy you a drink?” he asked. The breath caught in my throat when I turned to look at him. He looked at me with a sexy sparkle in his endlessly deep, arctic blue eyes. His full lips turned up in a seductive grin. He was so much fucking trouble, I could see it pouring off him. If I hadn’t suspected it before when he was flirting with all the girls in the place, It was obvious now that I was in his space.
But unfortunately for me I so liked being there.
“Thanks.” I nodded my head and turned back to my drink because there was nothing else I could say. He slid onto the bar stool beside me and nodded to the bartender.
“Haven’t seen you before, passing through?” his deep voice reverberated across the space between us and slammed straight between my thighs. He had the sexiest voice I’d ever heard. How was it possible for one man to be so sexy? To be so blessed with the entire package? A sharp stubbled jaw line, the fullest lips that had me wondering what they’d feel like trailing across my body, stunning eyes that sparkled mischievously when he spoke. It was obvious he left intelligent women everywhere struggling to find words.
“New, yes. Thanks.” I smiled as the bartender set our drinks down.
I don’t remember much from that point on.
Well that's not true, I remember bits and pieces, the most delicious parts.
His hands ran up under my shirt as he pinned me against the door of his truck.
His lips on my neck, teeth nipping at the flesh.
Stumbling up the steps to his house, his body slamming me against the front door, hands locked above my head as one of his palms trailed up my thigh and under my dress to hook my leg around his hip. A thumb hooking in the delicate lace of my panties before his fingers breach the fabric and run up my soaking wet length. My body writhing against his as he sucked on my earlobe, his fingers working in an out of me before my first orgasm bloomed low in my belly and shot across every nerve I had.
He opened the door and we stumbled into his house, making it just to the foyer before he kicked the door closed and laid me down on the floor, his hard body hovering over mine, caging me in.
The sound of a zipper as he pushed the jeans down his powerful thighs.
His rough hands trailing up my legs and over my ribcage before pulling the dress over my shoulders.
Fingers hooking in my pushup bra and pulling the fabric down to reveal the hardened peaks of my nipples. Teeth dragging across the sensitive flesh as he slides between my thighs and teases his arousal through my slick folds.
The low growl that escaped his throat as my nails dug into the hard muscle of his back and dragged across his skin.
My second orgasm in as many minutes as he ground his hips between my thighs and fucked me so hard the only words that escaped my lips were, “Oh, God.”
Oh, I remembered plenty.
But the most mortifying of my walk of shame this morning was the realization that I still hadn’t caught his name.
~ Excerpt ~
His thumb dragged across the seam of my lip. My eyes
fluttered closed as he swiped across the flesh. My body lit up with lust and a
dull throb settled between my thighs.
My heart stuttered a beat before I
whipped my eyes open and pulled away. “Hands to yourself, Casanova.” I backed
away and beelined for the front desk. The guilt was already nagging at me for
involving him in my life anymore than I should have. “Can I help you with
something or did you just come in to torment me?” I slipped behind the counter,
thankful for the space that now separated us.
“Saw your car out front. Had to
see those sweet lips again.” His eyes bounced down to the lips he’d just
touched.
“Really? That’s your line?” I
cocked an eyebrow at him, trying to steel myself against his rugged good looks.
His dark hair lay carelessly across his forehead, his thick sculpted eyebrows
arched, and his lips pulled into a devilish grin that emphasized his high
cheekbones and stunning light blues eyes, which flashed with dangerous
amusement.
He broke out into another laugh,
his arms crossing his chest. “You're sexy when you’re sassy, Sugar.”
“I am not. And cut it with the ‘sugar.’ I’m no one’s sugar,
especially not yours.”
“Hmm,
is that so?” His eyes scanned my body, landing for a moment on my chest.
“Eyes up, Casanova.”
His eyes flashed to mine, a small
smile curling the corners of his mouth. “Can I take you out?” His large body
felt imposing in the small space. His energy was engulfing everything around
him, sucking the air out of the room and causing oxygen to rush from my lungs.
“Not a chance.”
“Okay, let’s say we skip the date.
I just want you back in my bed.”
My mouth dropped open. “Another
original line.” I cocked my head to one side.
“Is it working?” He stepped closer
and leaned across the counter, invading my space and sweeping the breath from
my lungs.
“Nope.”
“Shame. Those lips wrapped around
my co—”
“Don’t even go there. I don’t
even—that night was a mistake. I hardly remember it and it’s not happening
again.” My irritation flared. I'd never met someone so blatantly vulgar.
“Ah, don’t say you don’t remember,
Sugar.”

Holy
Hotness! Say hello to Lane Wild! I absolutely devoured this book and was
completely captivated by Lane and his wicked wicked ways. Adriane Leigh serves up another AMAZING novel
that will consume you after you are done.
When
Kat Kennedy turns up in a small town in Maine the last thing on her mind is a
man but what she finds is so much more.
Trying to escape her past Kat is trying to keep to herself, but everyone
needs to cut loose sometimes. So a quick
hook up in a bar shouldn’t’ be an issue.
No strings. But the walk of shame
from Lane Wild’s bed leaves her wanting more.
“Anyone who had me on my back and spreading my legs at the hint of a cocky grin was bad news.” ~ Kat
Lane
Wild a/k/a Wild is a dirty talking, devilishly handsome guy who is just trying
to forget his past and live for the moment.
No attachments. Casual sex and
nothing more. But something about Kat
has him rethinking his ways.
“I
devoured her, tasted her, licked at her mouth and took her in. I wanted to own her, be inside her, on top of
her, all around her.” ~Wild
I
LOVED the quick witted banter between Wild and Kat. She gave as good as she got. I continuously found myself smirking at the
things that would come out of Wild’s mouth.
He was definitely not shy about what he wanted and how he was going to
go about getting it.
You
could tell that they were both trying to remain guarded but that the walls were
starting to crumble between them as their relationship heated up. Running from your past is impossible, as Kat
finds out. But will her connection to
Lane be enough to give her the inner strength she needs to make it through.
Go
grab this book….RUN don’t walk! It is a
steamy read with a great story and very likeable characters. You will not be disappointed.
