Excerpt:

“We want what you didn’t give us before.” Though he tried to appear casual, relaxed, Cooper’s jaw twitched, betraying his tension. 

The money. No doubt the money. She took hold of the edge of the table, trying to stop her shaking. “What might that be?” 

“The chance to know about the other.” He strummed his fingers on his knee. 

Todd put a hand on her shoulder. “The chance to show you the difference.” 

They didn’t mention anything about money. Her stomach twisted at the way Cooper stared her down as if daring her to say no, and she shifted her gaze to Todd. 

His eyes remained clouded, half closed. The answer to her question came in the form of heat igniting between her thighs. She shifted in her seat. What were they offering, a challenge, a choice, or her ultimate fantasy? 

“What if I say no?” 

Neither man answered. 

One night with them. Her mind screeched to a halt. Instead of her dream, she pictured tomorrow morning, getting back on a plane to South America, returning to the small marketing consulting gigs that barely paid her rent, and spending her nights waiting to be found out. She needed to locate her spine and get what she truly needed out of the night. “One night and we part?” 

Todd moved in closer. “Isn’t this what you always wanted?” 

Yes, that was everything she wanted and planned for five years ago. Of course, back then it wasn’t one night, it was forever. 

Wait, she couldn’t want. Her wants didn’t count. 

What she needed was to get up in the morning without a bulls-eye on her back. 
 She licked her lips. “No repercussions or retaliation?” They both knew her well and understood her question. 


Silence. Even the waves seemed to stop. 

At last, they both nodded. 

She took a breath. When she walked away tomorrow, she’d make sure she didn’t replace the bull’s-eye with a heart broken beyond repair, and haunting memories. 

Decision made, she pushed her chair back, and stood. “Did you get a room?” 

Rather than living her fantasy, she would give them theirs and take nothing more from them. No enjoyment, no dreams, not one more thing. 

Maybe she’d walk away with something she hadn’t had in years. 

Peace.

Tour: Review: Naughty Bit: Testing Fate by Belinda Boring


Testing Fate
#3 in the Mystic Wolves series
by Belinda Boring
Paranormal Romance

 5 Stars 
This is a sweet romance but she definitely snuggles right up against that invisible line! 

Be sure to read the Mystic Wolves series in order! 

Bels just gets better and better with each book she writes. When I felt like she was an amazing writer to begin with my jaw dropped to the ground while reading! This book is just 100% fabulous! Once again it's another of hers I couldn't put down. If you haven't started with the first book The Mystic Wolves you need to and it's still free.  At one point I even got up and sighed and did a little spin holding my book Kindle to my chest and sighed again before falling back onto my bed filled with such happiness!

 My heart broke again in the beginning and I wanted to pummel the Fates! I stayed up all night to read this amazingly touching story. As it progressed I couldn't help but cheer Darcy on in my soul. With the shocking twist at the beginning, which led to shocking realizations for Darcy, how could I not cheer her on! The Queen of Swoon has written her most swoon filled, heart pumping, breath taking story ever! I don't even want to go into any details because you have to FEEL this one for yourself! Never have I read a book that was so packed with emotion in practically every scene! 



Blurb: Nothing burns as bright as the flames of the refiner’s fire.

Moments after hearing the Council sentence her enemy to life imprisonment for attempted murder and illegal use of magic, Darcy is whisked away by the Fates—accused of tampering with destiny. The cherished dream she shared with Mason has been called into question, placing doubt about whether they are actually true mates. To resolve it, a price must be paid—the Heart or Death—a grueling series of tests designed to reveal a person’s worth.

The stakes are high and Darcy finds herself facing the unknown in conditions that leave her more vulnerable than she’s ever been. Separated from Mason and her Pack, with Devlin as her only companion, she is pushed to her very limits. She must succeed—or lose everything. 

Will she crumble under the pressure or emerge stronger for testing fate?

Naughty Bit! 

“Hello, sweetheart.”
Strong arms encircled my waist, pulling me back into a hardened body. My heart raced with excitement and a slow smile covered my face as I closed my eyes. I leaned into the embrace and curled my hand around his neck, securing myself to him.
His low husky voice dripped with seduction and caused a warm feeling to pulse through my veins. Hot breath teased at my ear before my skin erupted with goosebumps from the soft kisses being feathered down my neck.
I gripped onto his arm, my nails scratching his flesh when his free hand slipped under my loose shirt. I liked the way his fingers grazed and caressed—slow and methodical—leaving a shimmer of heated energy in its wake.
I twirled around, eager to look into his eyes. I wanted to see whose voice, with two simple words, caused my arousal to spike. He let me turn easily, cocooned safely in the frame of his arms and I gasped at the sight.
It was him again. His dark hair fell just above the brow line and startling blue eyes that held a mischievous sparkle. His features could’ve been chiseled from the finest marble, strong jaw line, but that’s not where I focused. His lips curled into a sexy grin and I wanted them on mine.
My thumb traced the outline of his mouth, his bottom lip full. I almost melted on the spot when he caught me by surprise, nipping at it before quickly stroking with his tongue. He groaned with satisfaction and the sound did something to my stomach.
“Take what you want, Darcy,” he whispered and I searched his face for his meaning.
“Who are you?” The stranger still looked familiar but my heart reminded me there was no way I’d ever forget a man like this, no way my body would let me. It was a riot of sensations—curiosity, desire, and an overwhelming rightness. I might not know him but I couldn’t deny the way he made me feel.
It was his turn to place his fingers over my mouth. “Shush. Don’t talk.”
I tried to speak again but he seized the moment and crushed his lips over mine. I wasn’t ready for the fiery storm that sizzled through my veins when his tongue touched mine. I don’t think I could have ever been prepared.
The kiss stole my breath. He tightened his arm around my waist as his hand held my head firmly. Applying a masterful pressure, there was no denying him access and I welcomed the way he deepened his assault. I wanted it—wanted him—his taste causing me to moan into his mouth.
I rose onto my tiptoes, wrapping my arms around his neck. I hung on as if my very life depended on it. I gave myself over to the moment to being so thoroughly kissed it would ruin me for all future suitors. I would crave this now, chasing it like a drug addict does his first high. I didn’t want it to end. I wanted to be locked in this embrace, with this man, forever.
Whatever awareness I was able to maintain told me I was being carried, but the seal of our mouths never broke. The passionate spark that almost consumed me had ebbed into a slow, languid whisper, his lips moving leisurely, yet deliberately. The change in tempo almost destroyed my composure, and when I finally felt myself being placed on a soft, cushioned surface, I pulled away reluctantly. A second longer and I would’ve drowned.
I welcomed the weight of his body as he covered me. Again, it felt so right, like we were made for each other, the perfect fit.
“Who are you?” I murmured, my heart thumping wildly. I stared longingly at his mouth, wanting to return there. He held power over me, this mystery man. I couldn’t keep from touching his face. My fingertips tingled from the contact.
He nuzzled into my neck and my body arched up into his. There was no answering questions and no thinking while his mouth was applying pressure to all the right places. Somehow he knew what I liked, how to make me respond a certain way, how to ignite my passion.
“You know who I am,” he answered against my fevered skin.
His hand reached for the bottom of my shirt and slowly began lifting it to expose my stomach. The movement was like sweet torture, paired with his seductive descent to sample the skin there. My breath hitched at the first circled brush of his tongue.
Something fluttered in my mind, a name. It stirred before settling, just beyond my reach. I struggled to capture it but it lay enshrouded in fog. The more I pushed the more elusive it became. It was the name of the man who was turning me inside out from his mere touch.
“Tell me your name,” I asked, my voice coated with urgency. My hands buried themselves in his hair and I tightened my fists when he gripped my hips.
“Search your heart,” he murmured between placing wet kisses. His fingers slid underneath the waistband of my pants, moving back and forth.
His name teased me again and then my mind locked completely down as I dragged his body up mine. My mouth sought his and the resulting kiss was one of blistering intensity, as we branded each other’s souls . . .
