A Hopeful Kind of Love (Kinds of Love 1.5)
“I thought so too,” he agreed, making her chuckle. “Are you ready for the main course?”
“If that was appetizers, I can't wait to see what dessert is,” she replied. She looked up at him, and her pupils dilated.
“Just wait until you see the main course,” he teased, dipping his head to kiss her nose. She chuckled, and he loved how he could feel the vibrations of her laugh ripple through him.
“I can't wait,” she replied. Her beautiful face twisted into a frown. “Is something burning?”
“Dinner,” he said, quickly untangling himself from her body. The loss of her around him was worse than being punched in the gut, yet he knew he had to save their meal.
Running naked into the kitchen, he quickly pulled out the chicken breasts he'd put in to warm. He set them on the stove top, checking them to make sure they weren't too badly cooked.
“I was always told it was a bad idea to cook naked,” Mia remarked, following him in. She didn't put on any clothes and the urge to take her again, this time on the kitchen table was strong.
“But I did save dinner,” he said, pointing to his almost perfect chicken breast meal.
She grinned and took a deep inhale in. “It smells amazing,” she said. “Did you make it yourself?”
“Of course I did,” he said. Her eyebrows raised and he shrugged. “Okay, I didn't. I just heated it up. But, it should be delicious. I may not cook, but I can reheat like a total pro.”
“I can't wait,” she said, leaning up against one of the counters. His eyes followed her curves, his mouth craving her again already.
“It should cool a minute,” he said, his eyes going to the soft curve of her hip and the swell of her breast. He could feel himself stirring again already.
She bit her lip and grinned. “Like I said, if that was appetizers...” She licked her top lip, the pink of her tongue driving him wild. “I could go for the main course. You did promise something amazing.”
He grinned. He made sure the oven was off and kissed her, pressing her naked skin into his right there in the kitchen. He wasn't about to tell her no, not when she looked absolutely edible. The chicken would taste just fine cold.

“Are you thinking what I'm thinking?” she whispered, pushing her hips against his. The way his pupils dilated nearly did her in.
Ethan
There are only two things that make billionaire Ethan White's heart race: fast cars and Laura Corbett. Unfortunately, Laura wants nothing to do with his playboy ways. Ethan thinks that everyone has the wrong idea about him, including his stalker, and he's determined to prove them all wrong. When Ethan's business partner wants to open a new car R&D facility in Colorado, he jumps at the opportunity to be closer to his two passions.
Laura
Thrust into the new responsibility of raising her siblings by the death of her parents, Laura Corbett doesn't have time for awkward hookups, let alone a relationship. So when the billionaire she had a one night stand with shows up in town, she pretends he doesn't exist. She can't let anything come between her and her family.
But nothing can prepare her for the way that Ethan connects with her brother and sister. And she can't deny the fact that jumping in his bed makes her come alive. Everything seems like it'll be normal again, maybe even better than normal.
But Ethan's stalker disagrees...

Laura
“Are you sure you have to go?” Laura asked. She sat on the edge of the hotel bed watching as Ethan packed up his things. He was meticulous in where he put everything, and she could see why he wouldn't want anyone else to do it. The man was a little bit of a control freak about his things.
“Yes,” he said, looking up. “It'll only be for a couple of days. You'll barely even notice I'm gone.”
Laura made a visible show of pouting. “I just like having you here.”
He chuckled and stopped packing to lean over and kiss her.
“I like being here,” he told her. “However, W Motors is still based out of California. I have things I have to do there.”
