Cole Barrington, a sexy dominant and a movie
producer with a reputation as a player, has been haunted by one particular
young lady who unexpectedly tugged his heart strings during a five-day romp on
a tropical island. Why she ducked his calls on their return he has no idea, and
the question still shadows him.
Paige Brooks is a publicist, and when she
learns she must accompany Cole to an annual charity event at the same Caribbean
island where she’d spent an idyllic week with him, she grits her teeth and
clenches her fists. The man broke her heart. How can she possibly get through
it?
Thrown together on a tiny seaplane, as they
fly to the private island where the event is to be held, fate throws them an unexpected
curve ball. Forced to land near a tiny uninhabited island, they suddenly find
themselves completely stranded and alone. Their intense attraction soon fires
their passion, and when they’re drawn into a wild treasure hunt, Cole must
use his dominant skill to control the impetuous woman from the perils
surrounding them.
If you enjoy a suspenseful romance starring a
take-charge alpha male, and a feisty young woman with a sharp wit and impetuous
nature, look no further than this panty-melting page-turner from Maggie
Carpenter.

Excerpt:
As Cole slipped
her dress over her head, Paige rolled into him and urgently grabbed at the
buttons of his shirt, but grasping her wrists he pushed her onto her back and
pinned them on either side of her head.
“We’ve got all
night,” he softly
murmured, “and I’m going to make the most of every minute. Don’t move.”
Rising to his
feet, he leisurely stripped, then returning to lie at her side, he slid her
panties down her legs and popped the front fastener of her bra. As it sprang
free he slid it down her arms and tossed it aside, then kneeling over her, he
gazed at her in wonder; the huge setting sun was cloaking her skin in a golden
glow.
“You’re even more
lovely than I remember,” he crooned,
then straddling her body, he sent his grasp back to her wrists, lowered his
lips, and began kissing her neck.
“That makes me
crazy,” she bleated. “I love it. I
love it so much.”
“I know,” he purred, traveling his lips across her shoulders
toward her breasts. “I remember the things that make you crazy. I’ve relived them
many times.”
She moaned in
response, and as he drew in her nipples, sucking hungrily, she raised her chest
to meet his mouth.
“Remember what I
said?” he murmured,
lifting his head and locking her eyes.
“Ooh, don’t stop.”
“Does that mean
you don’t remember?”
“I can’t stand it,” she complained. “Remember what?”
“My promise to
spank you. I promised when we were together before, and I promised you a few
minutes ago. I think it’s time I kept that promise.”
“You’re going to do
it now?” she gasped. “Right now?”
“Seems as good a
time as any,” he said with a
wicked grin, and releasing her wrists, he quickly flipped her onto her stomach
and yanked up her hips.
“Oh, my gosh!
What are you doing?”
“You do have an
incredibly spankable ass.”
“I can’t believe this!
Why do I feel so—”
“So what?” he asked, smoothing his hand over her backside. “So embarrassed?”
“Yes, and, ooh,
I feel so weird.”
“That’s natural, but
I’ll bet…” he said, his voice trailing off as he slipped his
fingers between her legs, “uh-huh, you’re soaked, and in a few minutes you’re going to be
even more soaked. Now keep still, and don’t shout out
like that again.”
“I didn’t mean to, I
was just shocked.”
“I know you’ve been craving
this.”
“How could I be
craving something I’ve never had?”
“Now you’re just being
coy. I think I’ll add a few extra slaps for that.”
“Okay, I have,” she said quickly, “but it’s weird and I
don’t know why.”
“There is no
why. It’s just how God made you, and I’m the other
side of that coin. Are you ready?”
“I guess.”
“Nope, I need
more than that.”
“Good grief.”
“Are you ready?”
“Yes, I’m ready.”
Though her
voice had been filled with trepidation, he’d also heard
excitement, and raising his hand, he brought it down with several quick slaps,
not hard, but carrying a sting that would not disappoint her.
“Ow!”
“I said no
shouting.”
“Sorry.”
“Here, bury your
head in this,” he suggested,
reaching for her dress and handing to her.
“You mean I’ll need to?”
“You might. I
won’t spank you too
hard, but it’s still going to hurt.”
“Ooh.”
“Unless you’d rather I
stop. Do you want me to stop, Paige?”
“Uh, no… no, I don’t.”
“Right then,
roll up your dress and bury your head.”
Though he didn’t think her
yelps or the sound of his smacking hand would carry around to the rocky point
to Jack’s ears, having her muffle her squeals in her dress added
some extra spice to the moment, and waiting until she was settled, he began to
land his slaps in an easy rhythm as he traveled his flattened palm across her
cheeks. When she began to squirm, he moved his slaps lower, and after adding a
few good swats to her sit spot, eliciting a series of mewling cries, he paused
and ran his hand over her warm pink skin.
“How are you
feeling?”
“Please, will
you touch me?” she begged,
turning her head to look at him over her shoulder.
“That was not
the answer to my question,” he said firmly,
delivering a solid smack to the center of her bottom. “How are you
feeling?”
“Ow, did you
have to do that?”
“And again,” he declared, landing another hard slap.
“Oww.”
“How are you
feeling?”
“My ass is
stinging, how do you think I feel?”
“I can’t believe you
just said that,” he muttered,
shaking his head and grinning at her nerve. “Anything else?”
“Yes. I feel…”
“Go on,
everything. Tell me everything.”
“Cole, I love
it. I mean, I don’t but I do. I really do, I just don’t know why.”
“We don’t always need
to know why we like something, now close your eyes and feel my hand rub away
the burn. That was your introduction.”
