Meet
the Kincade brothers: they’ll do what it takes to protect their legacy--but
what happens when love gets in the way?
Declan
Kincade has spent so much time chasing success he’s almost forgotten how to
just live. Lately though, his all-business routine has been thrown into
disarray. Brooke Hastings is the best employee Dec’s ever had: polished,
capable, and intelligent. After four years, he’s just realized that she’s also
smoking hot. But their working relationship is too valuable to stake on a
fling, no matter how mind-bendingly pleasurable it promises to be.
What’s worse than never meeting the right man? Finding him, and then working side-by-side every day while he remains absolutely blind to your existence. That is, until one temptation-packed road-trip changes everything. Teaching her gorgeous, driven boss how to cut loose and have fun is the toughest challenge Brooke’s ever faced. But it’s one that could give both of them exactly what they need, if Dec will take a chance on a perfect—and perfectly unexpected—love.

EXCERPT
The sunlight
caught like spun gold in the wavy strands of her hair. He liked that her face was
makeup free, but mostly he liked that she didn’t need a mask to feel confident.
Not that he ever planned to date Brooke, but he’d dated a lot of women who’d
refused to leave the house until their makeup had been perfectly applied and
every hair was in place.
In his mind,
all that preparation took away an opportunity for spontaneity. With his busy
schedule, sometimes that’s all he could manage—a last minute invite. Brooke had
so much sexy going on she didn’t need all that stuff. And today she’d pretty much
proved that she was game for the whole spur-of-the-moment thing. Impressive.
“How many
business lunches and dinners have I sat through with you, Mr. Kincade?”
He shrugged.
“Too many to count.”
“Bingo.” She
pointed. “And do you know what you order almost each and every time?”
“No.”
“Seared ahi.”
“And the
problem with that is?”
“Boring.”
“I like ahi.”
“Good for you.
But why not expand your horizons? Eating the same old same old every day is
like having missionary sex every time the mood strikes.”
And why did she
need to bring that up? Because his imagination definitely didn’t need a push in
that direction.
“Shake things
up.” She waved her hands upward like she was about to take flight. “Be daring.
Live a little.”
Damn she was
animated. How the hell did someone get like that?
“I’m happy with
things the way they are.”
“Are you
really?” As she leaned into the table, the unyielding fabric of that tight
white tank top across her breasts dominated his attention.
He didn’t
respond.
Couldn’t.
He was
too . . . distracted.
“You know what
they say; all work and no play . . .” she said with a shrug,
leaving the remainder of that statement hanging like a noose.
“So you’re
saying that eating fish tacos is suddenly going to shake things
up in my life?”
“Breaking your
same old song and dance routine will. After you’ve opened up the door, anything
can happen. Aren’t you the least bit curious?”
The server
interrupted them to deliver a large plate of steaming soft tacos, bowls of
salsa and sour cream, and two giant froufrou drinks with slices of pineapple
and maraschino cherries speared by pink umbrellas.
Oh hell no.
He was not going to drink something that would immediately revoke his
man card. But when Brooke plucked the cherry from her glass, dangled it in the
air, and captured it with her tongue, he had second thoughts. By the time she
settled the bright pink straw between the soft cushion of her lips and sucked
the orange frothy drink into her mouth, he figured he’d be game for just about
any damn thing. As long as he could watch her do that all
day long.
