She can feel it in her bones . . . but why?
Navy SEAL Sean MacKay's teammate is murdered after stealing a deadly nerve gas formula from Syrian terrorists. Naval Intelligence believes MacKay's teammate was a traitor and shipped the stolen formula to his sister in the States for safekeeping. MacKay is ordered to find the sister before the terrorists do and to recover the stolen formula at all costs.
Foreclosure looms for Cory Rigatero as she struggles to keep her rustic resort near Mt. St. Helens afloat after her brother abandoned her to join the SEAL Teams. Cory's whole world plummets into a tailspin when Sean MacKay shows up at her resort with news of her brother's death and the shocking suspicion that her brother sent her traitorous classified documents.
No way will Cory ever trust MacKay—the man who once seduced her and then vanished into the night without a trace.
EXCERPT:
“Let me grab that for you.”
Mac’s face appeared at Cory’s shoulder, his cheek close enough that if she moved her lips a few inches, she could press a kiss there.
Now, where did that thought come from? Easy, girl.
The rich smell of man, outdoors, and a hint of the morning’s after-shave drifted over her, sparking sensual thoughts like cheek-smooching.
Okay, way more sensual than just cheeks, she thought, as her gaze zeroed in on some sexy lips made for kissing. Lips so full and so soft and so noticeable even when surrounded by the close-clipped dark beard. Lips that easily curved into a killer smile capable of stealing your breath away. Lips like that had to be made for kissing. His eyes studied hers intently.
Good grief, don’t let this man read my thoughts. They would set his hair on fire.
As if he had heard, the notably sexy lips curled into the aforementioned breath-stealing smile.
Kiss me. Please, kiss me.
That wayward thought made Cory gasp in surprise.
He shifted back a few inches. “It’s okay. I’ve got it.”
Great. He’d heard. How embarrassing. She had gasped like an adolescent teen.
He straightened and gathered up the mulch bag, then dropped it into the wagon. “These are too heavy for you.”
“Not really. I’d have to load them if you weren’t here.”
“But I am here.
His voice had gone husky, and her skin tingled. He was only inches away again. When had he moved? So quick, so silent.
His predatory-blue eyes fixed on her, gliding over her face—over her—as though memorizing her features. Or did he search for answers to unasked questions?
Her pulse rioted. Her palms grew clammy.
Mac leaned closer.
She held her breath.
“I . . .” He hesitated.
What?
Tell me.
Tell me or kiss me.
One or the other, dang it.
He cleared his throat. “I want to thank you for the job.”
The pent-up air whooshed out of her disappointed lungs as he bent down to grab another mulch bag. What had just happened? She had almost kissed her new temporary laborer in the barn on his second day of work. That was nuts.
So why did doing it feel so right?
