He chuckled softly. “You’re everything I hoped, Camille. Everything I knew you would be.”
I raised my chin slightly, willing him to kiss me. I wanted to experience all of him, but he seemed to retreat.
“We should go,” he said abruptly.
The room seemed to swim. “What?” I said stupidly. What could he mean?
He straightened, stuffing his silk tie back in his suitcoat pocket and jerking his lapels into order.
“You head out first,” he said sensibly, “and I will circle around in the opposite direction.”
“No, William—” I stammered, nearly falling forward and then catching myself. “What about… This can’t be it!”
Suddenly I was flattened against the plaster again with my arms over my head. He pinned me immobile under his weight and glared fiercely at me.
“You. Do. Not. Command. Me!” he growled.
I shook my head desperately. “No! No… I— I just meant—”
“You just meant to tell me what to do?” he said archly.
I shook my head again and bit my tongue.
Just shut up!
I commanded myself.
“Oh now you don’t answer me?”
“No, William,” I stammered, desperate to figure out the right thing to say. Every part of my cried out for more. I didn’t want him to leave me here and go back to our former life.
Seeing my discomfort, he seemed to soften. As he drew slightly closer, I felt the warmth increase. Despite myself, I arched into that warmth like a plant turning toward the sun.
“I need to know I can trust you,” he whispered, his eyes gravely serious. I began to think that was a long process, one that I had barely begun. “I need to know that you…” he slid a hand down my arm, trailing his fingers lightly across my underarm, “are completely…” his fingers fell to my nipple and pinched it lightly through the lace, immediately pebbling it and sending sparks through my lungs, “mine.”
“I am!” I panted breathlessly, realizing the truth in the words as soon as I had spoken them. I had always been his, since my very first thoughts of being anybody’s.
He nodded absently, as though still unconvinced, and pinched my nipple until I had to bite back a yelp of discomfort.
“We’ll see,” he finally said. His eyes searched mine and I made myself totally open, hoping he could see what he needed to believe me. Then he raised his chin, planting a tender and lingering kiss on my forehead, and took a step back.
“We’ll see,” he said again with a cocky grin and turned on his heel, striding away down the dark hallway and disappearing around the corner while my heart shattered into a thousand noisy pieces.

and here is just a sample of a few…
Margot Trask is on a collision course with destruction - her love life is in shambles but she just can't stop herself from going back to the man who rejected her. Her paintings aren't finding collectors, and her expensive home is on the verge of foreclosure.
But a chance turn of events lands her in the private jet of Declan and Jackson Burke. They're charming but insistent, and they demand that if she won't date just one of them,
she'll have to take them both.
Little does she realize, their attentions are just what she needed to feel like her life and work have promise. Can it work out? Can she take on two alpha males and have anything left of herself?
Curvy, beautiful Brienne always thought she was playing the good girl, but never really believed that good girls finished last until now. While on a routine trip home to get a quick change of clothes, she surprises her boyfriend at the worst possible time...
But Owen and Lyle Jack are quick to make the most of this opportunity. They've had their eye on super-smart Brienne and they're not just going to let her slip away! Can Brienne really keep two men happy without risking a spectacular crash and burn.... Or burning her own heart in the process?
This was no accident... The Jacks are always prepared and Brienne slowly begins to realize she was hand-picked for this mission. Throwing herself firmly against the grindstone, she calls on every ounce of courage she has to take the chance to change her life - and does something not even the Jack brothers expect.
Everyone will be shocked by the plan that Brienne puts together (especially the jerk who tried to ruin her life). Just goes to show you - never underestimate a curvy girl, especially not one who's being lavished with the love of two amazing billionaires!
Her whole life, Camille has been haunted by urges and desires that she can’t explain, but she knows they are wrong. By applying herself rigorously to her studies and drowning herself in work, she’s been successful in her efforts to distract herself from her deepest needs.
But while Camille may have thought she was cleverly suppressing her feelings, William witnessed all of it. Son of a billionaire legacy and bred to a life of excess and pleasure, he doesn't have the same willingness to resist temptation. In fact, William embraces every desire...
no matter how dark
.
And now it’s time, he thinks, to see just how far Camille is really willing to go. All she needs is a little push...
