I'm so excited to host a day on the blog tour for TITAN WORLD, featuring Cristin Harber and ten authors writing in Cristin Harber's Titan world. The book being featured today is EDGE OF TEMPTATION by Gennita Low! Check out an excerpt below.
From New York Times best-selling author Cristin Harber and New
York Times, USA Today best-selling author Gennita Low comes an exciting
collaboration…
Walker, Titan's newest recruit, has been sent to rescue Nadine
Kincaid, DARPA's scientist working on a special state-of-the-art exoskeleton
for COS Command's Super Soldier Spy Project. Instead, the tied-up Nadine turned
out to be Nadia, Nadine's twin sister, who has been protecting her sister all
along. Now the two of them have to work together to keep the newest exoskeleton
blueprints out of the enemy's hands.
Rule #1. Never call your
new boss in the middle of his sort of second honeymoon. To his credit, his new
boss, Jared Westin, picked up at the first ring.
“You realize you’re
calling in between baby time. Which means, you’re calling during my time with
my wife. This better be good, Walker, or I’m docking your pay.”
Walker heard Sugar in the
background, “And he has to do babysitting duties when he gets back. Rookie.”
He shuddered at the
thought. He knew he shouldn’t have called. “Umm, Bossman, do scientists wear
fuck-me tight white leather to work?”
He eyed his charge from
the car. That could not be Nadine Kincaid. The woman turned in his direction
and he had a good look. Yup, that was definitely her, in a tight leather get-up
burning a hole in his eyeballs, carrying her usual work briefcase.
“Is this a trick
question?” Jared asked. “Because I’m not an expert in leather clothes. Sugar
is, though....Baby Cakes, he wants to know whether scientists wear fuck-me
tight white leather to work.”
Walker sighed. “Don’t give
me a hard time, Bossman. Something’s wrong. She’s wearing leather.” He watched
her walk past, in her usual path, but holy hell, that walk. He muttered, “She’s
wearing fuck-me high heels too.”
That sashay of a walk was
a slow prowl. She bent to pick something up, her leather-encased ass in perfect
view. That slow burn in his eyeballs was making a direct heat blast down to
lower regions.
“Fuck-me high heels,” his
boss repeated. He sounded amused.
“Did we hire you for
fashion analysis, Rookie?” Sugar’s voice came through loud and clear now.
Either Jared handed her the phone or she snatched it from him. “What do you
have against fuck-me leather, anyway? I wear leather.”
He did not want to get
into a fight with Sugar Westin, especially about leather outfits. That woman
wore it like armor. Rule #2. Never discuss the clothes a woman wears with her.
He cleared his throat.
“Nothing, but the target
is wearing something she hasn’t worn to work in the last five days I’ve had her
under surveillance,” Walker replied. “I called to tell Jared that something’s
up.”
He gritted his teeth. Wait for it. Wait for it.
“Jared, our boy here said,
while looking at our scientist in fuck-me leather, something’s up.”
