Forbidden Magic — Catherine Emm

Fresh, untouched Jewel considered herself lucky when she found shelter in a ribald tavern during a raging storm. But after she had bathed and lay naked under clean sheets, a towering stranger unlocked the door and confidently strode in and only then did the curvaceous beauty realize she'd been tricked. Her heart raced when she felt his hard , muscular form. First, the auburn-haired innocent shook with fear and hatred as the arrogant male made free with her charms. Then, though she despised herself for it, passion and excitement overwhelmed her and she matched his fiery desires.

Enchanted by a temptress from the moment Amery's emerald eyes gazed upon Jewel's lush figure starkly outlined by her rain-drenched gown, he knew he had to have her for the night. The dashing womanizer arranged for her comfort then demanded she show her gratitude by entertaining him until dawn. He always loved and left, but somehow his strong arms got used to the feel of her soft curves, his bronze skin needed her velvet touch. And his powerful torso had to crush her perfect body. No matter how much he fought it, the lusty male couldn't help embracing her time and again, and surrendering to the glorious pleasure of her irresistible Forbidden Magic.
