Venetian Love Knots – Adult Excerpt
My new novella, Venetian Love Knots, is available for pre-order now at Total E-Bound. Order now and save 15% off the cover price. Download it on January 28th, the VIP release date.
Venetian Love Knots is the story of a girl who travels to Italy to be in her best friend’s wedding. Her ex-boyfriend will be there too. She’s nervous about seeing him because things ended badly between them. Along the way she meets a handsome Italian gentleman who makes her heart do somersaults.
In Venice Allison Fox will find love in the arms of two men. Her past collides with her future in a battle for her heart. Which one will win?
Here’s an adult excerpt:
Upstairs, as they tumbled into his room, Cole warned her, “Allison, you are going to have to trust me tonight. Do you think you can do that?”
“Oh, yes!” she cried between his kisses, barely catching her breath.
“Okay, then hold on just a minute, baby. Do you want anything to drink? Do you have to go to the bathroom?” he asked.
“No, why?” she asked, her head clearing a little.
“Because I am going to tie you up,” he said. Then he bit her lip, fondling one of her breasts. Abruptly, he walked away, leaving her standing, shocked.
Allison wasn’t sure she’d heard him correctly. She needed to sit down. Wait, maybe she did need to go to the bathroom. Yes, then she could sit down. And go to the bathroom. Tie her up? Was he serious?
Allison knew Cole, and he didn’t kid around about things like this. What was she going to do? Well, she would let him do it, of course. She let Cole do…anything? That was why he had said she would have to trust him. She did trust him. She trusted him not to hurt her. At least physically. Emotionally, now that was a different story…
Okay, she could do this. It might be fun.
Cole had returned with some white silky ropes and a rakish grin. He looked like he was really going to enjoy this. Maybe a little too much. How long had he been planning this? Did he do this all the time? Allison wasn’t brave enough to ask that last question.
“Are you scared? You don’t need to be scared, babe. I promise I won’t hurt you.” He laughed. “Unless you want me to.”
