From the Blurb:
Felix
I’ve always been a helper. Someone who
sees the world in a brighter light than others do. Who tries to show
everyone there’s good in this world.
So when I meet Henry, I
immediately make it my mission to show him how great the world can be if
he’ll only accept a little help.
Easier said than done. But I’ve always liked a challenge.
Henry
I have no idea why this complete stranger wants to help my daughter and me. But I can’t seem to shake him.
Life
hasn’t been kind to us, and I clearly don’t see the world the same way
he does. I want what’s best for my daughter, though, and if that means
accepting help from Felix, then that might be what I have to do.
No matter what my instincts scream at me.
I’ve been abandoned by everyone in my life, and that’s what I expect now.
But Felix seems determined to make sure I know I’m not alone.
Excerpt:
We haven’t talked about our kiss, and I don’t want to now either.
Instead, I lean forward and brush my lips slowly over his, waiting for
him to tell me we can’t do this. Waiting for him to realize he’s too
good for me, but instead, his fingers move to the back of my head and
thread through my hair as he pulls me into him, intensifying the kiss.
His hand grips my hair as his lips smash against mine , and when I open
my mouth on a soft moan, his tongue sweeps inside, sliding over mine.
We
kiss like that for what feels like hours, but in reality, it’s only
minutes.
Then his fingers go to the hem of my shirt. He pulls back a
little, his eyes asking the silent question. I give him a quick nod, and
then my shirt is gone. His is next , and I revel in every hard, cut
line of muscle on his chest and abdomen. His body is firm and strong—
absolutely incredible. I smooth my hand over his heated flesh, and his
hand covers mine, letting me explore but going along for the ride.
I’m
not sure how far I want to go with this. My hand trembles under his, but
he seems to know instinctively and breathes against my mouth, “You say
stop, we’ll stop. No matter what. We can watch television,”— he kisses
my lips—“ or talk more.” I smile, and he kisses me again. “Or play a
little.” He waggles his eyebrows in a ridiculous way that’s so damn
Felix, I actually laugh.
God, I don’t remember the last time— if there
ever was one—where my dick was so fucking hard it bordered on painful
and I actually fucking laughed at the same time. Miraculously, it
doesn’t ruin the mood. It only makes it that more intense. And that, in
itself, is scary as hell.
