Darian King has never met
a challenge he couldn’t handle. Running a billion-dollar corporation? Piece of
cake. Hostile takeovers? A walk in the park. But when his little sister begs
him to plan her wedding, Darian finds himself less than prepared for the task.
Luckily, he knows just who to ask for help.
Allison Reed wants nothing
more than to leave King Enterprises behind. Being the personal assistant to a
man like Darian is a 24/7 job. Asking her to help plan a wedding is simply the
icing on the stress-filled cake but to leave she needs a glowing reference and
will do anything to get it. Even plan a wedding with the man of her dreams.
Stepping outside the
office has unexpected consequences. Darian doesn’t believe in relationships,
yet he’s starting to see Allison in a whole new light. But he doesn’t know her
secret, and she fears that by the time the vows are exchanged, she won’t just
be leaving her job behind but her heart as well.
“I’m fully capable of sleeping with you without
falling in love with you.”
He breathed a sigh of relief. “I’m glad to hear
it.”
“All that being said, I think there’s only one solution
here.”
“Oh?”
She smiled. “We need to start having no strings
attached sex on a regular basis. Friends with benefits, as it were.”
Had she really just said that or was his mind
playing tricks?
But she stared up at him with those beautiful eyes,
obviously waiting for an answer.
“You could do that?” he asked, disbelieving.
“Why does everyone think I get attached at the drop
of a hat? I’ll have you know that in my youth I let three tomogatchis die
without any remorse.”
A smile tugged at his lips. “My apologies. I had no
idea I was dealing with woman so hardened by life.”
“Accepted.” She slid her hands up his chest. “What
do you think of my offer?”
“I think it sounds perfect.”
Better than perfect. She was giving him exactly
what he craved. Lust pounded through his body at the thought of having her in
his bed again. The need was so strong it helped push back the misgivings
pulling at his conscience. Nothing he’d learned about Allison in the past four
years had led him
to believe she could be the detached lover she
claimed. She was as utterly different from the women he usually dated. But on
the other hand, who was he to make choices for her? If she said she could
handle no strings, perhaps he should trust that she knew what she was getting
into.
She smiled up at him, further quashing his doubt.
“Focus on your meeting. We can iron out all the details later.”
Reaching up, she smoothed a piece of his hair back
into place, with softness in her eyes he hadn’t seen before. At least, not when
she’d been looking at him.
She turned to go, but he couldn’t help reaching out
to catch her arm.
“You’re sure?” he forced himself to ask.
“Stop asking me that or I’ll go proposition another
man.”
Victoria Davies’s passion
for writing started young. Luckily she had a family who encouraged believing in
magic and embracing imagination. From stories quickly scribbled in diaries, her
love of storytelling developed. Since then her characters may have evolved and
her plots may have grown decidedly more steamy but she never lost her love of
the written word. Writing is not only a way to silence the wonderful voices in
her head, but it also allows her to share her passions with her readers.
Currently she writes from
Toronto, Canada. While she has a healthy love for the unknown, this corner of
the world will always be her home.
