“He was in his prime, hard-bodied six-foot-four-inches with the chiseled bone-structure of his half-Comanche mother and the emerald-green eyes of his Texan father. A razor-thin scar angled across one high cheekbone, a souvenir of a winter night in Moscow when a Chechnyian insurgent had tried to kill him.
Women went crazy for that scar. “It makes you look so dangerous,” a little blonde had whispered to him just a few nights ago, and he’d rolled her beneath him and, to her delight, showed her just how dangerous he could be.”
"He kissed her again and again, until she knew he was right. Nothing mattered but him and the way she felt when he touched her. The way he groaned under the stroke of her hand. The way he tasted, all salt and passion and clean, powerful man, when she kissed him.
When at last, Matthew slid into her, deep into her, he rode her until she was blind to everything but him."
"Sweat glistened on his shoulders. Mia kissed his salty skin, clasped his hips, levered herself up to meet his powerful thrusts."
"What she’d done with Matthew, the sex…
Her breath hitched. The truth was, she’d never even had an orgasm until tonight.
Oh God, how exciting it had been! The way he’d stripped her. Gotten her wet. Removed her bra and panties and then made love to her. She’d never believed sex could be so powerful."

and against all odds he and Mia feel an explosive passion for each other that soon grows into something deeper."Everything she’d done with Matthew was new and exciting and dangerous, just as he was dangerous.
He was a beautiful animal, wild and incapable of being tamed.
She couldn't picture him in captivity, trapped behind a desk in the nine-to-five world."
"Was that why she was running? To save her life…or to save her soul? To get away from a man who might hurt her, or to escape what he’d taught her about herself? About sensuality, and what it was like to be stroked until you purred.
She looped her arms around his neck. Lifted one leg and wrapped it around his. He groaned with need, and it made her feel incredibly powerful."
“Keep at this,” he said, “I’m going to back you against a tree and take you right here.”
His words, the roughness in his tone, thrilled her. “Do it,” she said, her voice hoarse with excitement."
