Velvet Embrace — Nicole Jordan

BEWILDERING PASSIONS
From the moment she saw him standing arrogantly in the doorway of her bedroom, Brie Carringdon knew Dominic Serrault was the kind of man who was accustomed to taking what he wanted. His gray eyes glittered like shards of ice as they roamed her barely-clad curves, and when he caressed her, his touch seared her innocent flesh with wanton fires. Brie gasped with pleasure, then pushed him away with trembling hands. She couldn't deny him refuge from the bitter cold of the storm, but her hospitality did not extend to the intimacy of her bed!

UNDENIABLE DESIRES
As Dominic studied the enticing beauty who stood barefoot and wide-eyed before him, he smiled in anticipation. No respectable woman would spend the night alone in a deserted hunting lodge she must be some man's mistress, awaiting a lover who'd been stranded by the blizzard. Well, he would see that she wasn't lonely this dark night. He could easily imagine her lying before the hearth, her glorious russet curls spread beneath her like a carpet of liquid flame, her lush arms eager to welcome him within the heat of her ... Velvet Embrace.
