Meet
the Kincade brothers: they’ll do what it takes to protect their legacy--but
what happens when love gets in the way?
Declan
Kincade has spent so much time chasing success he’s almost forgotten how to
just live. Lately though, his all-business routine has been thrown into
disarray. Brooke Hastings is the best employee Dec’s ever had: polished,
capable, and intelligent. After four years, he’s just realized that she’s also
smoking hot. But their working relationship is too valuable to stake on a
fling, no matter how mind-bendingly pleasurable it promises to be.
What’s worse than never meeting the right man? Finding him, and then working
side-by-side every day while he remains absolutely blind to your existence.
That is, until one temptation-packed road-trip changes everything. Teaching her
gorgeous, driven boss how to cut loose and have fun is the toughest challenge
Brooke’s ever faced. But it’s one that could give both of them exactly what
they need, if Dec will take a chance on a perfect—and perfectly
unexpected—love.
The sunlight caught like spun gold in the wavy
strands of her hair. He liked that her face was makeup free, but mostly he
liked that she didn’t need a mask to feel confident. Not that he ever planned
to date Brooke, but he’d dated a lot of women who’d refused to leave the house
until their makeup had been perfectly applied and every hair was in place.
In his mind, all that preparation took away an
opportunity for spontaneity. With his busy schedule, sometimes that’s all he
could manage—a last minute invite. Brooke had so much sexy going on she didn’t
need all that stuff. And today she’d pretty much proved that she was game for
the whole spur-of-the-moment thing. Impressive.
“How many business lunches and dinners have I sat
through with you, Mr. Kincade?”
He shrugged. “Too many to count.”
“Bingo.” She pointed. “And do you know what you
order almost each and every time?”
“No.”
“Seared ahi.”
“And the problem with that is?”
“Boring.”
“I like ahi.”
“Good for you. But why not expand your horizons?
Eating the same old same old every day is like having missionary sex every time
the mood strikes.”
And why did she need to bring that up? Because his
imagination definitely didn’t need a push in that direction.
“Shake things up.” She waved her hands upward like
she was about to take flight. “Be daring. Live a little.”
Damn she was animated. How the hell did someone get
like that?
“I’m happy with things the way they are.”
“Are you really?” As she leaned into the table, the
unyielding fabric of that tight white tank top across her breasts dominated his
attention.
He didn’t respond.
Couldn’t.
He was too . . . distracted.
“You know what they say; all work and no
play . . .” she said with a shrug, leaving the remainder of that
statement hanging like a noose.
“So you’re saying that eating fish tacos is
suddenly going to shake things up in my life?”
“Breaking your same old song and dance routine
will. After you’ve opened up the door, anything can happen. Aren’t you the
least bit curious?”
The server interrupted them to deliver a large
plate of steaming soft tacos, bowls of salsa and sour cream, and two giant
froufrou drinks with slices of pineapple and maraschino cherries speared by
pink umbrellas.
Oh hell no.
He was not going to drink
something that would immediately revoke his man card. But when Brooke plucked
the cherry from her glass, dangled it in the air, and captured it with her
tongue, he had second thoughts. By the time she settled the bright pink straw
between the soft cushion of her lips and sucked the orange frothy drink into
her mouth, he figured he’d be game for just about any damn thing. As long as he
could watch her do that all day long.
