He has an old score to settle…

Josie Marcus is back in town. The last time Trent O’Reilly saw her, she was driving away, leaving him naked on the beach. Now, this could be his chance to finally put an end to his desire for her too-tempting self. She’s running the local sex therapy clinic, so he’ll pretend to need private sex lessons. When he has her hotter than she’s ever been, he’ll walk away, leaving her unsatisfied. Great plan. So why isn’t he heading for the door?

Josie has never been able to resist the sexy Trent. Problem is whenever they start heating the sheets, she panics and runs away. However, his scandalous offer is just the resolution she needs. If she can control the sessions, she’ll stay calm and then she can get him out of her system. But trading sensual pleasures with him is so steamy she wants to stay…forever!

A sexy, fun romp from newcomer Jamie Sobrato!

Excerpt

Josie tied the scarf over Trent’s eyes.

“Is that really necessary?” he asked.

“Absolutely. When vision is impaired, the other senses are heightened. And I told you not to ask questions.”

“I thought all teachers liked curious stu-” She cut him off with a soft, slow kiss. And then she was gone. A moment later, he heard a slow jazz tune start to play, heard the barely audible fall of her footsteps on the carpet coming back to him. He could see her in his mind, wearing the sexy black lace bustier and garter belt. The image was almost more tantalizing than the real thing.

She unbuttoned his shirt, opened his jeans. Trent let out a soft groan when her hand brushed him.

Her breath tickled his neck, and then she whispered, “Do you like it when I touch you there?”

“Yes,” he said, his voice strained. “I do.”

She slid her hand down his thigh, and back up, continued up his belly to his chest. She pulled aside his shirt and her hair brushed against him as she trailed kisses up his chest to his neck, her hand once again drifting south, lightly teasing.

Trent gasped and let his head fall back.

“Do you want me to touch you…more?”
