Excerpt
“I need you to believe me. You ...” She hit him again with what little mobility he left her with. “You need to believe me.”
He bent and looked directly at her. “I believe you.” Then he
pulled her against his chest and kissed her forehead. “I do.”
She melted against his hard body. “You’re the assassin in
this room, remember?”
“That’s right. I am.” He pushed her back to the wall. His
tone turned low and deep. “It probably disgusts you. You probably want to run
from me.” His hard body held hers in place and his thick cock pushed against
her hip.
“No.” She focused on him. “I want you.” She blew out a
breath. “Don’t push me away.”
He brushed her collar bone with a feather light touch. “Why
aren’t you frightened of me?”
“Don’t you see? This Aidan doesn’t scare me.” She dragged
her teeth across her bottom lip. “This Aidan makes me come undone.” Warmth
flooded her core. All she wanted now was for Aidan to command her body, bring
them together in a way that erased all the ugliness bombarding their lives.
He brushed her hair behind her shoulders and then dragged
his touch down the side of her neck and to her breast, “Do you know what else
we use this room for?”
“Tea and biscuits?” A bubble of tension tingled along her
fingers and toes.
“Cute.” He tugged on a lock of her hair. “Gavin originally
commandeered it for interrogations but the room’s purpose changed once Ethan
brought in the furniture.”
“That bench.” She pointed to the one with different levels.
“It’s not just a bench.”
“Nope. You trust me?”
“I do. I’m not scared of you either, Aidan. I’m scared of
losing you, losing your trust. You’re all I’m hanging on to.” She pressed her
palms to his firm chest. “Please tell me you believe me.”
“I do, baby. I’m sorry I had to ask you those questions. I
couldn’t get through it unless I questioned you like I did. But now that it’s
done and we’re in this room I can’t ignore what we need. Tell me again you
trust me.”
“I trust you, Sir.” She held still.
“Submit to me. Here, in this room, will you submit to me?”
His gaze darkened.
“It would be my honor, Sir.” She took a deep breath.
“All you have to say is red and I’ll stop. Do you
understand?”
“Yes, Sir. I understand.” She waited for his command. With
each second, her heart eased into an even rhythm.

SJ Gives Us A Little Insight Into Aidan and Liz
Aidan and Liz were destined to find each other. But life had several twists in store for them before they'd ever actually meet. Here's a look at a few of the things that ultimately brought them together.
During their adolescents, they spent a good bit of time living only a few blocks apart. I like to think he might have helped her with her bags once or maybe she threw a wayward ball back in his direction. Although, they both had lots to learn about themselves and they'd have to wait for love.
They both have close friends for which they'd do just about anything for.
Both Aidan and Liz were lucky enough to know their grandmothers well before they past. Aidan keeps his grandma close by remembering her infamous quotes about love and life. I like to think she knew Aidan would find love with Elizabeth and did the best she could to prepare him to be the man she'd need. Liz keeps her grandmother close by wearing her locket. Liz believes it gives her strength, but what Aidan will help her see is her stength has been inside her all along.
Liz and Aidan both enjoy beer. They may have come to appreciate it from different angles, but once they see it through each other, a whole new understanding takes hold. That can be said for so much they have in common. ;) Oddly enough, it might just be their love for beer that finally has their paths cross at the right time.
I knew from the beginning, these two deserved happy endings. As I got to know them and fell in love with their wit and kind hearts, I was totally unprepared for the thrilling ride their road to love would take. It all seemed so simple at first, two people destined to fall in love. But what happens is anything but expected.
