Second Debt
(Indebted #3)
by
Pepper Winters
 |
Genre: Dark Erotica
Release Date: January 26, 2015 |
~ Synopsis ~
“I tried to play a game. I tried to wield deceit as perfectly as the Hawks. But when I thought I was winning, I wasn’t. Jethro isn’t what he seems—he’s the master of duplicity. However, I refuse to let him annihilate me further.”
Nila Weaver has grown from naïve seamstress to full-blown fighter. Every humdrum object is her arsenal, and sex…sex is her greatest weapon of all. She’s paid the First Debt. She’ll probably pay more. But she has no intention of letting the Hawks win. Jethro Hawk has found more than a worthy adversary in Nila—he’s found the woman who could destroy him. There’s a fine line between hatred and love, and an even finer path between fear and respect. The fate of his house rests on his shoulders, but no matter how much ice lives inside his heart, Nila flames too bright to be extinguished.
~ Excerpt ~
Just thinking of Jethro sent a spasm of
desire through my core.
Dammit, what’s happening to me?
A daydream of Jethro slamming to his
knees before me and wrenching my legs wide stole my mind. It was so vivid, so
real—a trickle of need ran down my inner thigh. I gasped as I imagined his
tongue lapping at my clit, his long fingers disappearing inside me—the same
finger that I’d tattooed with my name.
Would I come harder knowing he touched
me with a finger branded by me? Or would I hold on as tight as I could and make
him work for it?
Oh, God.
I needed to get rid of this satanic
desire. I needed to be free.
My eyes opened, latching onto the
detachable showerhead.
I could do it myself…
My heartbeat whizzed with need. I
couldn’t fight the churning demand any longer.
Reaching upward, I unhooked the
showerhead and turned the water temperature down so as not to burn myself.
Feeling awkward and ridiculous and a
hundred times guilty for what I was about to do, I braced my back on the tiled
wall and spread my legs a little.
My teeth clamped on my bottom lip as
the water pressure tickled my clit.
Oh. My. God.
My eyes rolled back as I grew bolder
and pressed the stream of heavenly water harder against my pussy.
Water cascaded down my legs while my
torso shivered from sudden cold. My nipples stiffened as I wickedly angled the
jet down and down until water shot inside me. Every jet and bubble aroused
sensitive flesh, sending my muscles clenching in joy.
I moaned.
Loudly.
My legs trembled as my neck flopped
forward and I gave myself over to the exquisite pleasure conjured by an
innocuous showerhead.
Starbursts flashed behind my eyelids;
Jethro loomed into my mind. I pictured him shrugging out of his black shirt,
prowling toward me while unbuckling his belt and unzipping his trousers. I
moaned again as my daydream shed his clothing and stood proud and naked before
me. He grabbed his cock, pumping himself hard and firm, while his eyes feasted
on what I was doing. He didn’t say a word, only watched, then crooked his
finger and beckoned me closer.
My heartbeat exceeded recommended
limits as I forced myself higher and higher, locking my knees against buckling
as an orgasm brewed into being. I rocked the showerhead, biting my lip as the
pressure spurted over my clit and then inside me. The rhythm I set was exactly
like fucking and I daren’t overthink how I looked or how depraved I felt
getting off this way.
My daydream forced its way past my
misgivings. My forehead furrowed as I trembled, both welcoming and fighting an
orgasm.
Daydream Jethro crept closer, working
his cock, a dangerous glint in his eyes. The moment I was within grabbing
distance, he captured my waist. “I need to be inside you, Nila.” I put words
into Jethro’s mouth, but it was his voice I heard in my heart.
I moaned again, angling the showerhead
harder against my clit.
“How do you want it?” my fantasy
whispered in my ear as he spun me around and pressed me hard against the wall.
I swallowed hard, answering in my mind.
“Fast and…”
“Filthy?” Daydream Jethro’s nose nuzzled
the back of my ear, sending shockwaves down my spine. “I can fuck you filthy.”
I couldn’t speak. But I didn’t have to.
My fantasy knew exactly how I needed it. Jethro bit the back of my shoulder,
spreading my legs wider with his.
“Fuck me, Jethro Hawk,” I whispered.
“Oh, I will. Believe me, I will.”
Without further warning, he dug his fingers into my hips and slammed inside me.
My fingers went numb as I slid the
showerhead from clit to entrance. I cried out as water shot inside at the same
time as Jethro thrust into me from behind, sliding deep and fast, stretching me
deliciously painfully.
My heart exploded with bliss. An orgasm
squeezed every atom, getting ready to hurl me into the stratosphere.
Jethro thrust again and I rode my new
friend the showerhead.
“Oh, God. Yes,” I hissed, rocking
harder. “Yes, yes…”
A masculine cough sounded. “You
continue to surprise me, Ms. Weaver; at least this time, I rather enjoy it.”
Everything crashed into awareness. My
daydream shattered, fracturing by my feet like broken glass. I squealed and
dropped the showerhead. It turned into a water snake, spewing water left and
right, wriggling like some terrible demon.
Jethro snickered. “You’re using up the
entire Hall’s supply of hot water. Are you planning on saving some for the rest
of the inhabitants of my home?”
~ Review ~
Ever waited for the next installment in a series to come out only to be afraid to start it because you knew that once you started it would be over? That was me. Second Debt sat on my kindle for a few days taunting me to catch up with Jethro and Nila but I knew that I would get caught up in all things Hawks and Weavers and be left waiting......Well, I was correct and here's me waiting for Pepper to give me more!
Love this series and the brilliant writing that is Pepper Winters. She has the ability to captivate me as a reader and pull me so deep into the story that nothing else matters. This is only Book 3 in the series and as Pepper may give us an answer or some insight into a lingering question from earlier books there are more questions formed and you are left to speculate and draw your own conclusions while you ponder and wait what she has in store next for these two.
Tortured souls is what comes to mind......Nila is fighting against herself to honor the memories of Weavers past while falling for Jethro in spite of herself. Traitorous body..... sigh. Jethro is obviously hiding some deep dark secrets and is also dealing with his inner conflict. How can he resist the one person that makes him "feel" and carry out his obligations as a Hawk? Will Nila be more than he can handle and put his inheritance in jeopardy? I must say watching Jethro lose control at times and that is what makes me fall for him that much more.
We of course get to catch up with Kestrel and the man I love to hate Cut. There is a bit more mentioned of the infamous Bonnie Hawk and we get to spend some time with Jasmine. It would appear that she holds the key to many of Jethro's secrets and may be a few of her own.
Now keep in mind that this is only Book 3 of a 6 Book series.....yes there is a cliff hanger....oh and it's a good one. You might even want to harm your e-reader....but don't because before you know it it will be time to pay the Third Debt and you wouldn't want to miss what Pepper has in store for us readers.
If you are new to this series, I suggest you go #1-click now....I loved the Monsters in the Dark Series but Jethro has definitely stole my heart from "Q". Happy reading!

Debt Inheritance
(Indebted #1)
~ Synopsis ~
“I own you. I have the
piece of paper to prove it. It’s undeniable and unbreakable. You belong to me
until you’ve paid off your debts.”
Nila Weaver’s family is indebted. Being the first born daughter,
her life is forfeit to the first born son of the Hawks to pay for sins of
ancestors past. The dark ages might have come and gone, but debts never leave.
She has no choice in the matter. She is no longer free. Jethro Hawk
receives Nila as an inheritance present on his twenty-ninth birthday. Her life
is his until she’s paid off a debt that’s centuries old. He can do what he
likes with her—nothing is out of bounds—she has to obey. There are no
rules. Only payments.
First Debt
(Indebted #2)
~ Synopsis ~
“You say I’ll never own you. If I win—you willingly give me that
right. You sign not only the debt agreement, but another—one that makes me your
master until your last breath is taken. You do that, and I’ll give you
this.”
Nila Weaver’s family is indebted. Stolen, taken, and bound not by monsters but
by an agreement written over six hundred years ago, she has no way out. She
belongs to Jethro as much as she denies it. Jethro Hawk’s patience is
running out. His inheritance gift tests, challenges, and surprises him—and not
in good ways. He hasn’t leashed her but he thinks he might’ve found a way to
bind her forever. Debts are mounting. Payment waiting.
