Alisa Selby
With a shift, I let my dress slip from my shoulders and fall to the floor, revealing the lingerie beneath. Nathan's eyes darkened, as closing the small distance between us, his lips claimed mine in a possessive kiss. His tongue tangled with mine, both hungry and tender. Then, slowly, oh so tantalizingly slowly, he backed me toward the bed, his kisses travelling down my neck, across my collarbone, before they moved lower still… ~~~ FBI Agent Brianna Hart had always wanted Nathan Pierce, her stepbrother, and for several years they had been lovers, but circumstances forced them apart.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS (BACK TO YOU)  - Romance novels & stories
Sassenach W
“I’m not scared of you.” “Really? Because that’s quite a fight-flight-freeze response you’ve got going on. Pupils dilated. Body quivering. Breaths fast and shallow.” He smiled. “Oh, wait, that’s not fight-flight-freeze! I’ve seen you like this before, haven’t I? Every night for a fucking year.” She licked her lips, "That was then, this is now,” she said. “Say the word and I’ll be on my knees for you in a heartbeat, same as I always was.” —------- Event planner Tessa Monroe has just come face-to-face with the man who shattered her heart two years ago. When she first agreed to a sugar daddy arrangement with David Warren—a sinfully handsome, wildly wealthy billionaire ten years her senior—she knew the rules. It was supposed to be purely financial and intensely physical. She certainly didn’t expect to fall in love with him... or that he'd fall in love with her —At least, so he'd claimed. After all, who the hell cheated on someone they claimed to love? David Warren had spent the last two years convincing himself that he hated Tessa. For the first time in his life, he'd broken his own rules, fallen in love, and risked his heart by asking her to marry him. Her rejection didn't just bruise his ego—it broke him, and he'd walked away full of hate, anger and resentment, swearing that he was done with her for good. It's been two years now, but it's obviously not enough time to quench the volatile fire between them. Walking back into each other's arms is dangerous, and playing with this much chemistry guarantees they’ll both get burned. But neither of them has ever been good at resisting the heat. Not when there's chemistry…So much chemistry.
