Draco (Coded for Love 2)

Lara watched her father carefully. Had he welcomed Draco on-board and let him execute his suggestions?

Draco caught her eye and she could see he was pleased. She took his hand, realizing what he and her dad had cooked up. She glanced around. Everyone was focused on Rory, thinking he was the interloper, the one pointing out where they were failing in their jobs. As long as her father approved of the outcome, Draco’s position would remain untarnished. If her dad agreed, no one would think twice about him joining the company on a permanent basis.

Rory picked up his motorcycle helmet and strode around the table to shake her father’s hand.

“If you take a seat outside, Rory, I’ll see you at the end of the meeting.”

Rory shook hands with him.

“A small thank you is with my PA.”

“Thank you, Sir.”

Disconcerted mumbling started off around the table when Rory left the room.

“They can’t hear us, can they?” Lara whispered

Draco shook his head and moved closer, wrapping his arms around her.

“I can’t believe you got him to do that! I love you so much, Draco.”

He stared down at her, serious a moment. “I think I loved you from the moment I locked eyes with you in the diner.”

“That’s not possible.” She laughed.

“I love it when you laugh.”

“You make me happy”

“Just as well, if you’re going to give up all this,” he waved his hand at the tinted window and beyond, “just to keep seeing me. Although I don’t think that’s entirely necessary now.”

She stared up into his eyes. “I would have, willingly.”

“I think you would. Then again, you are a crazy lady.”

SEAN

Rowan Vaughn doesn’t need a man. All men do is break your heart. So when Sean Rattigan drives into town on a Harley Davidson—ripped and brooding—she has to lift her jaw and act like she doesn’t care. Sean is the one who stole her heart and promptly disappeared with it. She isn’t going to give him the satisfaction of falling on her back for him all over again.

Fresh out of jail for cyber crimes—and with a pack of hungry gangsters on his trail, slavering for his hacking skills—Sean Rattigan heads to Wales, determined to lay low in the land of the dragons. Seeking only a bed for the night, he calls on his stepsister, Rowan. But the magnetic attraction between Sean and Rowan is more powerful than ever, and their passion is quickly reignited.

Rowan has a confession to make, but Sean disappears again without hearing her out. Furious, Rowan vows to give him a taste of his own medicine and follows him to London. What she doesn’t know is Sean left her behind to protect her, and she’s about to walk into the mother of all gangland showdowns.

EXCERPT

Nan and Gladys had conspired to trap them together. It didn’t surprise Rowan, but she could just walk away, couldn’t she?

What if Sean didn’t let her? The thought turned her on, wildly. Then there was the fact his presence strolling behind her was totally magnetic. You need to have sex, that’s all. But she wanted him, always had. And he was so bad for her.
