She did as he ordered, knowing that she had no choice in the matter. Her golden eyes held his gray ones, and the intensity that she saw in those depths jolted her, pushed her closer to the edge.

Nothing better. Just… nothing.

Then it was on her, washing over her, washing her away, and Nick dragged her lips up to his. He swallowed her screams of release, took them into his mouth, and then his grunts and groans sounded back into hers.

It was over now, and they were a shuddering, heaving mess against the door. Open-mouthed kisses, sweet murmurs, panting breaths against the door. All wrapped around each other, still joined together.

Still one body. And far more and far better than that – one soul.

Only now – now that it was all over and the madness had passed – did Nick think about his prosthetic. That was when Keegan’s words came back to him:

One day you’ll be doin’ somethin’ man, and you’re gonna completely forget that the prosthetic ain’t your leg. Maybe just for a few seconds, maybe f

    Nick walked into Mia’s hospital room quietly, not wanting to wake her if she was out for the count. The labor had been tough on her, and had gone on for more than twenty-four hours. If the woman needed a rest, he wasn’t about to deny her that. Not even to get a longed-for kiss from those perfect lips.Sure enough, Mia was asleep. He stood at her bedside, just staring down at her for a few seconds. Then so carefully, so gently, he pressed a tiny kiss onto the top of her head.That was when his son stirred in the hospital bassinet. He’d be sleeping next to Mia all night, and Nick would be sleeping on the pull-out sofa in the corner. It was going to be their first night sharing a room as a family – and it wasn’t going to be anything like the last.Kieran’s blue eyes squinted open, and he made a soft noise of what sounded like complaint. Nick scooped him up, held him close to his broad chest, stared down at the baby.“Hey there, little man,” he whispered. “You gonna stay quiet just a bit

  • Fighting Back (Fighting For Love 5)   Epilogue 1

    Nick and Mia’s son – the first of three – was born almost exactly nine months later. Adam and Katie’s daughter Samantha took one look at the sleeping baby, and declared him to be her future husband. Katie and Mia immediately started scheming how to make this happen, while their husbands excused themselves from the insanity and went for a beer to celebrate the birth of little Kieran Spencer.Nick and Adam walked into Joe’s restaurant and – as always – admired the apsara at the door. It had been the last one that Maggie had completed, and it was the biggest and definitely the most eye-catching. She’d completely outdone herself on this one and photos of it had exploded all over the internet, as well as travel magazines and blogs, and pretty much any foodie review of the restaurant used it as an image.It had launched Maggie’s career into the stratosphere, actually, and as a result, she had her choice of sculpture commissions and clients. Now that she was six months pregnant, she worked l

    Nick escorted Mia to the dance floor, feeling surprisingly calm and confident about this. God knows, he and Adam had practiced until they were blue in the face and Keegan had almost lost his mind from watching two men slow-dance. But it was all going to be worth it now: Nick was going to take Mia in his arms and he was going to sweep her off her feet.He meant that literally. Though that part wasn’t going to happen here.Mia looked up at her husband, smiled when he gently placed his hand on the curve of her hip. She’d been so touched to hear that he and Adam had practiced this exact moment over and over, and she wanted it to be perfect for Nick, and for herself, too. She wanted this to be just the first dance of many… each one as close and warm and loving as this one.People gathered around them, watching as Nick and Mia moved slowly, gracefully, across the floor. Nobody looking at him would have had any idea that Nick was wearing a prosthetic; that just seven months ago, he’d fallen

    Across the room, Trish Montgomery studiously ignored the drop-dead sexy guy with the messy black hair who kept staring at her. Fuck, what an asshole. OK, sure, he was gorgeous and hot and built… but what kind of a dickhead made goo-goo eyes at the female staff with his girlfriend sitting right there?A serious dickhead, that’s the kind. And Trish knew far, far too many of those kinds of dickheads. She knew far too many dickheads in general actually, if she really thought about it, and avoiding them was pretty paramount in her new life.Sadly, that wasn’t always possible nor was it easy, and she never fooled herself about why that was – she never kidded herself for even one minute. Trish was, after all, the star of no fewer than seventy x-rated movies that were widely-distributed around the internet and hundreds of porn sites… so for all she knew, this guy with the astonishing silver eyes and bulging arms had already seen her with her clothes off. Maybe he knew her alter-ego Thalia Fla

    As the waiter removed his empty dessert plate and refilled his coffee cup, Keegan casually glanced around the large dining room. He told himself that he was just enjoying the relaxed, amazing vibe of the reception, but really, he was looking to get eyes on that cute little thing who had served him his meal. She’d started serving at his table, but about halfway through the dinner and much to his disappointment, she’d switched over to the tables across the room. He’d spent the entire meal basically ignoring his plus-one and trying to sneak quick little looks at the waitress, and he’d been kind of successful. No matter how far away she was or how fleeting the glimpse, she remained a natural, eye-catching beauty. Her blonde hair was pulled back in a shining ponytail that swung far enough down her slim back to teasingly brush the curve of her delectable ass. Her legs were long and curvy; her movements somehow both delicate and deliberate. But what had smashed Keegan in the face and the c
