Title: Surrendering to Us
Author: Chelsea Cameron
Release Date: January 2nd, 2014
Synopsis
They're finally together. But the Universe seems intent on tearing them apart…
Rory Clarke might not be Lucah Blythe's boss anymore, but that doesn't mean they can sneak off to the boardroom for hot sex whenever they want. Keeping their hands off each other in the workplace is harder than they could have imagined, and that's not the only obstacle they have to deal with. Between Lucah's troublesome brother Ryder, and Rory's bff Sloane's inability to understand locked doors, they're drowning in drama.
But it's only about to get a lot worse when a blast from Lucah's past surfaces, and chaos at Clarke Enterprises threatens to take away everything Rory has worked so hard for. Can the couple weather the storm and surrender to each other, or will the challenges of staying together destroy their relationship for good?
Excerpt
He was always warm in the morning, and the sleepiness
in my body was quickly replaced by desire as he moved in and out of me, kissing
my shoulders and muttering in my ear. We both came quickly, and when he was
done, I was definitely awake.
“Good morning,” he said, and pulled out.
“Good morning to you too,” I said, rolling back over.
My body was liquid and I didn’t feel like I had any bones. He was going to have
to carry me into the shower and hold me up.
“Is this going to be one of those mornings when I have
to make and then bring you breakfast and turn the shower on for you?”
“Is this a day that ends in Y?” He grinned and went
to put on his boxers. If I ever had to live by myself, I was probably going to
starve. Both my parents were good cooks, and then I moved in with Sloane and
now I had Lucah to make me breakfast every morning. I used to just grab
something on my way to work, but Lucah said he worried about the state of my
arteries from all the donuts. That made me glare at him and ask if that was a
safe way of telling me I was fat. His response was to slap my ass and take me
to bed and show me just how much he loved every inch of me.
Twenty minutes later, he brought a tray with
scrambled eggs and salsa, toast, fresh fruit, a blueberry smoothie and a cup of
green tea.
“I want to have your ginger babies.” He’d even put a
little flower in a vase on it. I was terrible about plants and Sloane was
worse, but Lucah had brought a few of them into the apartment when we’d moved
in. He told me that since he moved so much, he could never really have plants,
so he was happy to finally be in a place where he could. Who could say no to
that?
“I don’t know if we’re quite ready for that yet, Miss
Clarke. But I think you would be a beautiful mother.” Lucah had the power to completely
liquefy my heart as well as the rest of my insides.
“You haven’t seen me with your nieces yet. Maybe I’ll
be terrible with them.”
“I doubt that.”
