Retired Pararescueman, Quinn Wolff, wrote the book
on how to stay alive during a mission when he founded Wolff Securities, an
elite private sector security firm. When he fast-ropes down to save missing
humanitarian aid worker, Avery Marks, in the remote mountains of Azbakastan he
isn’t prepared for the brave, stubborn woman who challenges the rules he wrote
in order to protect her.

when it comes to matters of the heart nothing is simple…
Avery Marks learned a long time ago to take care of
herself, but when her convoy is attacked, her friends and coworkers murdered,
she has to rely on the aid of intensely capable and handsome, Quinn Wolff to
get her safely out of the country. His skills keep her alive, but his kisses
put her in danger. In danger of losing her heart. That’s a risk she can’t take
ever again.

her breathing. Seconds later Quinn whispered her name.

A sob built in her throat but she pushed it down, unwilling

“Avery?” Concerned. Alert.
She tried to answer, but the words stuck in her throat.
Seconds later his hand was on her shoulder.

“Are you all right?”
No. Avery pushed the sleeping bag down and sat up. Her hands
found his chest, bulky with vest and equipment, but warm and alive. Needing to
feel his heartbeat, she found the hem of his t-shirt and slipped her hands
underneath. Hot, taut skin slid beneath her hands as they traveled over rippled
abs and upward.

His breath caught when she opened her palm over his chest
where his heart beat strong and steady.

“Avery—”
She lifted up and pressed her lips to his, cutting him off.
This was what she needed. Not talking. Not questions. To know she was alive,
that he was alive, and she wasn’t alone. Reassurance that she was free of her
captors.

In control.
His lips were warm, strong against hers. He hesitated, then
he took over and the kiss no longer belonged to her. His lips moved over hers
and stole her breath away. All her fears dissipated until there was only Quinn
and the incredible way he was kissing her. Her hands dug into hard muscle,
urging him closer. In response he tightened his arms around her.

He pulled away first. His chest heaved in synchrony with
hers. In the darkness she couldn’t see his face to read his expression, but his
erratic breathing told her he was as affected by the kiss as she was.

“I’m sorry.” She pulled her hand out from beneath his shirt.
“I shouldn’t have—I just needed to know—”

Quinn’s fingers pressed to her mouth. “Don’t. I get it.”

LOL. Thanks, D!!
I'm sitting here at my computer sipping my ice tea (Summers in Texas are truly ice tea weather) having read your rather warm excerpt. As retired military I can only imagine the mixed emotions Quinn must be feeling, his need to stay alert to possible danger and the desire brought on by the nearness of Avery. Watch your six buddy or you'll both be toast! (-;
I LOVE ice tea! My favorite drink in the world, Vamp Writer!
