Ivy’s sweater slipped off her left shoulder when she leaned forward, baring skin of golden cream to the morning sunlight. “Okay, I get that.” She didn’t notice when he nudged the sweater back in place with [telekinesis], the temperature too cold for her to be so exposed.
[...]
“How did they know your subdesignation so fast?” Her sweater slipped again and he nudged it back. “It usually takes time to be certain, even with genetic markers.”
[...]
Vasic glanced at her shoulder, nudged the sweater back up. This time, she noticed, color on her cheeks as her hand went up to the spot. “How many times?”
“Five.” He got to his feet before he could make it six. “I need to rest.”

—ESCALANDO VOCÊ.
na Amazon e no Kindle Unlimited.
+18.
Atriz premiada Marie Bellucci é traída pelo namorado diretor famoso e a mídia passa a zombá-la. Para reconquistar o público, sua assessora tem a ideia de Marie fingir um namoro com Jeong Giovanni, ator queridinho do momento.
Ganni nunca se envolveu em polêmicas, é reservado e não curte a vida agitada de uma celebridade, preferindo mais escalar montanhas a filmes. Namorar Marie colocará os holofotes ainda mais forte nele. E é isso o que sua assessoria quer.
Contudo, há química entre os dois atores e, certamente, atração. Se torna interessante se conhecerem, inclusive na cama.
Mas enquanto usam mentiras para benefício próprio, eles possuem mais segredos que podem manchar a reputação de ambos.

“you don’t start anything you can’t finish. you’re not the person who buys the stationary bike as part of a new year’s resolution, then uses it as a coatrack for three years. you’re not the kind of woman who only works hard when it feels good, or only shows up when it’s convenient. if someone insults one of your clients, those fancy kid gloves of yours come off, and you carry your own pen at all times, because if you’re going to have to write anything, it might as well look good. you read the last page of books first—don’t make that face, stephens.” he cracks a smile in one corner of his mouth. “i’ve seen you—even when you’re shelving, you sometimes check the last page, like you’re constantly looking for all the information, trying to make the absolute best decisions.”

“I know you want to protect me,” she whispered, long, slender fingers spreading over his heart. “I can feel your need in every pulse of your blood.”
“I can’t promise that I won’t check up on you every so often during your shifts,” Hawke admitted, because it would’ve been a lie of monumental proportions to do otherwise, “but every part of me understands who you are.” Not simply his mate, but a dangerous, beautiful woman with her own dreams and desires.
It would’ve been easier if she’d been someone else, a woman who followed his every dictate and who never put herself in harm’s way. But he didn’t want easier, didn’t want anyone else. He wanted Sienna. Only Sienna.
