My Thoughts:
Victoria “Vicki” Calvetti starts our
suspense right away. Is she paranoid or
does she have the right to feel the way she does. Blake Reilly is a man who is hard to figure
out. But as I read, I find that it’s
actually Vicki that’s hard to figure out.
This little mystery is what kept me going. I’m terrible at solving them but then I have
an author who helps me out. On top of
that we get a little action and suspense – all tied up with a Mafia bow.
You know this story has Mafia ties
but it doesn’t overtake the story. If it
did, Blake and Vicki would get lost. The
reader gets just enough intrigue so that you will want to know how this will
affect out couple in the end. Vicki is
one tough cookie and she kinda knows how to take care of herself but finds it
hard to give up control. I found her job
interesting and interesting how that job affected her personally. Blake has a job where he walks a fine line
but when Vicki ends up in his personal space it was interesting to watch how
parts of his life changed. The only
thing I can’t tell is if the author has given her readers a happy ending. So the questions I have is does this mean we
have another book coming? Will we see
more of Vicki and Blake? I guess we’ll
just have to wait and see.
EXCERPT:
He looked... Damn fine. Black leather jacket covered muscles she could only imagine and his trousers showed off an ass so fine it could grace an underwear ad. What was the question? “I’m sorry?”
“You try to run, darlin’, I’ll hunt.” His eyes glittered. “And I like the chase.”
Her pulse jumped for all the wrong reasons. The thrill of the hunt was something she understood. Enjoyed on multiple occasions, but the challenge in his tone begged for a response. “I’m not going anywhere. With you.”
“Pack.”
She walked to him with a swing to her hips and a sassy smile on her lips. When she got to him, she pressed a finger to his oh-so-firm chest. Her fingers itched to explore all his taut flesh. The man obviously worked out. “Make me.”
“Challenge accepted.” The bangles on her wrist jangled as he grabbed her wrist and pulled her close. “You wanna play?”
“Said the spider to the fly.”
He bent low, slow, torturing them both as their breath mingled. When he dropped—finally, finally—it was a slow glide as he brushed his lips across hers, relearning the feel of her, letting her rediscover him. Firm lips tempted as they slanted across hers, moved across her cheeks, leaving a trail of fire to her jawline. Her breath hitched when the hands at her hips pulled her close. The warmth of his hard body was the dream she tried to forget, but couldn’t. She wanted hard and commanding, something to dull her mind, but he moved slow, tangling lips and tongues.
This Blake was controlled where the boy had raced to the main event.
The years and the hurt and the world disappeared under his gentle assault. She drank him in, his breath, his tongue, the press of his lips. She gave herself to it, in anger for the lost years, the lost— Everything.
Lifting to her toes, she took her frustration out on him, forced the hard need into her kiss.
“Jesus,” he muttered. He nibbled along her jaw and down the side of her neck.
The pleasure hurt, the need like a fist in her chest. She struggled, pulled against his grip, but he held firm with one hand while the other swept her backside and lifted her close. The restriction of her hand trapped between them sent a burst of panic through her. She shoved against his chest.
“Nice try, darlin’,” he whispered as he bit her earlobe, “But you wanted to play.”

ABOUT CINDY SKAGGS:
With her love of storytelling and heroes, it’s no wonder she turned to books and stories after her father died. She skipped most of the eighth grade to bury herself in books while hidden in her closet, because she was still looking for the perfect story and the last honest man. Her search took her around the world with the Air Force as well as around the world with her education. She’s visited more countries than she can remember, nearly every state in the U.S., and has more degrees than the Tin Man.
As a single mom, she’s still gambling, betting on herself for the first time in her life, turning her lifelong love of storytelling into the one thing she can’t live without: writing. She writes 10,000 words a week in cafes and coffee shops, and some of those 10,000 words are even worth reading. She has an MA in Creative Writing, is working towards her Master of Fine Arts, and has three jobs, two kids, a Pushcart Nomination, more pets than she can possibly handle, and more works in progress than the crew filling potholes after a long Colorado winter.
