About Stirred:

Stirred

I’m Eden MacLaird, and Fate screwed me good at the age of twenty-one, stole my first love, then my first child. Twenty years later, I still haven’t found my happily-ever-after. Sure, from the outside, I have it all, including Declan, my gorgeous, rich-as-sin husband. But things aren’t what they seem, and catching Declan in bed with my best friend destroys any dreams I harbor for love, much less sexual fulfillment.

Then in walks Sean Bennett…

Just months away from earning his post-graduate law degree, Sean’s smart, driven, and serious, but an unexpected encounter between us in a bar one night changes everything. His best friend, Trinitee, warns against getting too involved, but the heat between us is beyond intense, and neither of us are willing to walk away.

With my marriage in shambles, I’m eager to make a go of it with Sean, despite our sixteen-year age difference. But while I relish my sexual reawakening, I fear giving up the posh life I’ve grown accustomed to. That life, however, and everything in it, comes crashing down as bodies start piling up around us, and all clues point to me and Sean.

Secrets, betrayal, and revenge threaten to destroy not just my carefully-crafted reputation, but my very life. With our freedom at stake, Sean and I join forces to uncover those plotting against us. But as doubt and evidence mount, I must choose: give in to my suspicions and save myself, or trust our new-found love and save us both.

Exclusive Excerpt:

Stirred Anticipation (1)

Her hands caught mine and stilled it in place, not letting me go any farther, but not pushing me away either. She was very conflicted; that much was certain—the look in her eyes, the way she worried her bottom lip with her teeth. And it would work to my benefit, I was sure. But instead of emboldening me, it gave me pause, and my longing inexplicably shifted from what I wanted for myself, to what I wanted for her—to feel desired, to know she was someone’s fantasy, a dream come true. I would show her what she’d been missing all these years, what her husband had denied her, that she was worth the effort, worth giving to, worth loving. And in my sudden need to be what her husband had not, I felt a fullness swell inside me. Not just between my legs, or even my heart, but in my soul.

Caught in that epiphany, I leaned in, my mouth a mere inch from her right ear.

“What are you so afraid of, Eden?” I breathed, and slowly, I moved to face her, so close, all I had to do was stretch my neck, ever so slightly, and my mouth was on hers, gently, my tongue a flick against her lips as I brushed across it. Next, my mouth was at her left ear. “Why not take the risk?” I pressed but for a moment before my mouth reclaimed hers.

I kissed her deeply this time, my tongue probing for hers, and, after a moment’s hesitation, she met me head on. My hand between her knees pressed forward, not rough, but definitely insistent. Undeniable. Her hands, once a tense and formidable barrier, relaxed, though she kept them resting against mine as my fingers edged upward, gently easing her legs apart to allow me access. And there it was, the lacy edge of her panties, and an intense, scorching heat. My heart ricocheted in response.

Eden sucked in a soft hiss as her mouth retreated from mine, but, though she pulled back for a split-second, a half-hearted attempt to regroup and regain control, she knew, as well as I, that it was impossible, and her mouth returned to the one place we both knew it belonged, right against mine. But even that proved too much for her, and she dipped her chin to lean her forehead against my cheek as she panted in anticipation.

Because that’s what this was. Anticipation. I hadn’t really touched her—not yet. I hadn’t invaded the space her wedding vows had long ago promised to one man, and one man only. That anticipation she felt was her sense of decency and fidelity warring with her desire, the basest need a human could ever experience.

I am loyal, but I will betray you.

I met her when I was sixteen, she was a breath of fresh air. She swooped in, making me smile. But then she left, taking my next breath with her.
Her smile could light up a room, making my black heart pita pata.

Synopsis:

What if you found him, the one who was put on this earth for you? He was your perfect partner, your soul mate. Your life with him was more than you could have ever hoped for. The two of you created an amazing family full of so much love.

I did. And it was everything.

Then, one day, I woke up, and he was gone. They were all gone.

I can’t accept it. I’m stuck in a reality that isn’t mine, aching for the life I lost, one that made up the very fabric of my soul.

How do I find my future when my past won’t stop pulling me under? I’m drowning, struggling to breathe in this existence where nothing makes sense. It might be crazy, and I might be as well.

But if you’d experienced the joy of a once-in-a-lifetime love, you’d be chasing memories, too.

Excerpt

“I like the red ones,” Josh said before turning back toward the display of lingerie. “Oh, and this color. Is that teal?” He lifted up the pair of panties and held them out before him.

I smiled as a younger guy three feet away ducked his head in embarrassment.

“Now these would look fucking amazing on you. Damn, baby.” Josh’s eyes gleamed in excitement as he looked up at me. “I may go broke if you keep bringing me to places like these.”

I giggled as I grabbed the pink, lacy, and completely see-through nightie he held in his other hand.

“We’ll take one of these in every color you have,” he hollered to the clerk.

I hid my head against his chest and tickled his sides.

“What?” he grunted and tried to pull back from my assault. “You can’t blame me for trying, sweetheart.

Forget about getting dressed daily. I think you should live in these nighties.”

I tilted my head and looked up at him. “You are insatiable.” I rose up on my tiptoes, bringing my lips close to his. “And extremely adorable.”

He closed the distance and kissed me, wrapping his arm around my waist securely. His tongue rolled with mine, and for a moment I forgot we were standing in the center of a department store. Someone cleared their throat, and I broke the kiss to look over my shoulder. An older salesperson was giving us a disapproving glare.

“Sorry,” I offered. When I turned back to face Josh, he was grinning from ear to ear.

“So—” He waggled his eyebrows suggestively. “—we are getting some of these. Right?”

I lifted up the light pink nightie and shook it in front of his face. “We’ll get this one and the red one,” I assured him as I walked toward the sales clerk at the checkout counter. When I looked back over my shoulder, Josh was smiling brightly and following close behind.

“Now that’s my girl. Looks like tonight we’re

staying in.”

I rolled my eyes and turned forward again as he chuckled.

Testing The Boss By Mallory Crowe ♥ Release Tour

Standard
Testing the Boss Release Tour Banner

 

Welcome to the Release Tour of TESTING THE BOSS by Mallory Crowe. This is the fifth book in the Billionaires in the City series! Now lets learn a bit more about Mallory.

INTERVIEW WITH MALLORY CROWE

Tell us three behind the scenes facts about TESTING THE BOSS.

1 – Evelyn is named after the author Evelyn Adams. Without her help and support, I probably would not be a published author now.

2 – The cover model on TESTING is the same guy who’s on TOUCHING. I just loved him so much and, since the characters are brothers who look alike, I made it work.

3 – I was recently in New York City for a few days (previously I’d only been in the city for a few hours at a time). So this is the first book where I could use real life experience to describe the city.

What’s the last book you read and loved?

One of my author friends, Cali MacKay, just published the first part of this really cool project called FORBIDDEN about a woman who turns to a mysterious artist on a private island to keep her safe from her deranged ex. Except the mysterious man is actually a set of twins and she starts falling for both without realizing it. Cali’s been telling me all about the story as she was writing it and I couldn’t WAIT to get it and read for myself.

Out of all your heroes, who do you want to keep for yourself?

I think Simon from TEASING THE BOSS might be my favorite. Something about a sexy, redhead nerd alpha. Who also likes dogs…

Your next book TAMING THE BOSS will be the final book in the Billionaires in the City series. What are some of the things going through your mind at seeing this series end?

I’m really more excited than anything. Partially because I don’t feel like the series is ending, I feel like I’m opening a new chapter. I can’t give too many details yet, but the next series will be a little different in tone, but will still have the strong characters and bite of humor and suspense that the BITC series had. So I’m 100% thrilled to bring this new world to my readers.

What’s next for Mallory Crowe?

The last book in the Billionaire’s in the City series, TAMING THE BOSS, is coming out January and that shows the Devereaux’s dedicated assistant, Cali, going to northern Maine to drag back the black sheep of the family. Needless to say, he doesn’t make things easy for her in the best way possible.

Testing The Boss

Billionaire Luke Devereaux gets what he wants and what he wants right now is to bring down the shady organization threatening his family. Teaming up with the FBI is his only option–even if that option comes in the sultry Evelyn Price, the ice-princess who’s all business.

Refusing to be distracted by the sexy, rich playboy, Evelyn forces herself to stay focused on the case, gearing up for the criminal takedown of her entire career. As the enemy closes in with Evelyn as its next target, it’s up to Luke to keep them out of danger. The more they work to protect each other, and fight for control, the harder it is to resist their undeniable attraction.

And the one thing Evelyn has learned from working with him is that Luke Devereaux gets what he wants.

Excerpt

“You don’t want to work out with me,” she warned.

He leaned forward and she realized that she’d made a horrible mistake. “Oh really? Think I can’t handle it?”

Great. Now she’d activated his competitive side. “Oh, I think you can handle it. Far away from me, though.”

“So I’m free for the night?”

“No! I’m going to be there for the damn phone call, Luke.”

“So we are working out together?” She opened her mouth to say no again, but he cut her off. “Because you normally work out right now and we’ve got nothing better to do. Unless you have any bright ideas?”

She had at least fifty reasons why she didn’t want to work out with Luke, and every single one had to do with not wanting him in her space. But she wasn’t about to admit it. “You don’t even have workout clothes with you,” she settled on.

He held up his duffel. “I always have workout clothes with me. I have a treadmill in my office.”

“We’re not working out,” she repeated.

He cocked his head and considered her for a moment. “Do I make you uncomfortable, Agent Price?”

Those blue eyes were on her like a spotlight and she racked her brain for a good lie. Because he did make her uncomfortable. Incredibly, intensely uncomfortable in the worst way. “Of course not.”

“Then give me the address and we’ll go.”

“You’re not a member of my gym.”

“I’m a member of whatever gym I want to be. You just give me three minutes alone with the manager and I’ll be in.”

She snorted. “I doubt that. I’m the manager. I have a home gym.”

“The exclusive club Evelyn? Well, now I really want to go.”

Synopsis
I’m a pawn, a piece of chattel, a toy–used and forgotten.
When you’re done with me, you can walk away with no regrets. That’s how my husband sees me. I try to be the best wife possible for him. After all, he took me on when no one else would. Now–he’s in debt and owes more money to the loan shark than we can possibly repay.
But, don’t worry, he’s come up with a solution, it’s just not one I was expecting.
…I’ve been TRADED.
Traded Teaser
Excerpt
“You sent her home
with him, right?” My eyes dropped to my shoes and he growled. “Tell me you
didn’t, Ashton. Tell me you didn’t take the girl in lieu of payment.” I lifted
my chin and he got his answer. “Jesus, fuck.”
 
“I made him a deal,”
I said. “I get Elena for three months, and he pays back half of what he owes.”
 
“Half? Are you
crazy? Does she have a golden pussy or something? She must have. There must be
a good reason for this . . . insanity.”
 
By this point my dad
had rounded the table, grabbing handfuls of my shirt, pulling me flush against
him, his face was millimeters from mine as he shouted his displeasure. My fists
clenched at my sides. At six-one I was a big bastard but Dad was bigger. He
could take me without breaking sweat. Even so, my voice was tight when I looked
him straight in the eye and replied, “He abuses her, Dad,” the volume dropping
slightly when I continued, “I don’t know to what extent but she won’t even look
me in the fucking eyes when I talk to her. Can’t make a decision on her own.
Swear to Christ, she jumped six fuckin’ feet in the air when I touched her
hand. I have no intention of fucking her, but I couldn’t let her leave with
him. If I shot him down and let Brock rough him up a little, imagine what that
would have meant for her. You know.”
 
Understanding washed
through his features and he lowered me to the ground, releasing my shirt from
his grip, smoothing out the crumpled material. “She’s staying with
you?”
 

“Yes.” I
made the split-second decision to share my plan with him. “I’ve only got three
months to repair what he broke. It’ll be tough but I’ll be damned if I don’t
give it a try.
