to Wish with you.

What
happens when you dare to wish?
In an effort to regain her independence and
break out of her shell, shy Eve Ward writes a daring wish list of all the
things she wants to do before her thirtieth birthday. It’s a good thing the
list is for her eyes only, because some of the items are pretty risqué.
Adrenaline junkie Lucas Riley becomes Eve’s
“victim” in a kiss-a-stranger dare, and she thinks he’s perfect for her
one-night-with-a-stranger wish.
With Eve, Lucas thinks he’s found the
distraction he needs before he has to say goodbye to his bad boy image. When he
finds Eve’s sexy wish list, he can’t keep himself from giving into temptation
and sneaking a peek, and wish number eight is impossible for him to resist.
Being good can wait.
Eve is thrilled when, out of the blue, Lucas
offers to take her skydiving. Her sexy stranger has helped her tick so many
wishes off her secret list. Her confidence has grown and now she’s having fun
both in and out of the bedroom. It seems too good to be true...is it? She can’t
shake the niggling suspicion that something’s not quite right.
Content Warning: contains
dizzying heights and sensual sex
Genre(s): Contemporary Romance
Excerpt
“Wait.”
Eve froze mid-turn, halted by his husky command and the
tingle radiating from his hand lightly grasping her wrist. She met his gaze and
realized how wrong she’d been. He was a million miles away from being
uncomplicated. The startling blue of his eyes revealed depths Eve could only
imagine drowning in.
“Did you say…nice?”
He leaned closer. “I would say that was a lot better than nice. I’m sure if we tried again we could
manage spectacular. Don’t you agree?” he drawled.
Maybe nice had been the wrong word to choose Eve relented as
she noted his husky tone. It was
infinitely better than nice. Try amazing!
Her breath hitched as she thought of his kiss again. Knowing he enjoyed it
too sent a surge of pleasure through her that settled deep within her belly.
Obviously she could do some things right.
If she intended to fulfill her wishes she was going to have
to find some confidence from somewhere—and fast! At the moment her confidence
seemed to be firmly in the area of her knickers.
Running and hiding now seemed out of the question. Maybe
confidence practice would be the lesser of two evils? She paused before turning
to face Mr. Hotness for confidence lesson one.
“Hmm...” She pretended to consider. “Maybe you’re right.
However, as this was a dare I’m afraid it was a one time opportunity,” she
added with mock apology. “So I guess we’ll never know.”
“You kissed me for a dare?” His brow arched.
Eve nodded. “Uh-huh. My dare was to kiss a stranger.”
“A dare, huh? I feel so…so violated.” He clutched his free
hand to his chest in feigned hurt, although his eyes brimmed with humor and a
smile tugged at the corner of his delicious mouth.
“Don’t be offended. I did actually choose you,” she blurted
before forgetting her cool, calm, and confident aim.
“So you really thought you could violate me then run?”
“That was my plan, yes,” she said with a confidence she
didn’t quite feel, especially as she was distracted by the thumb lightly
stroking her wrist.
“And I didn’t even try to play hard to get. Guess you got
lucky.”
“Or maybe you did,” she countered without thought, mortified
as a blush warmed her cheeks at his responding grin.
He grinned, releasing her hand. “Tell me. Do you like to be
dared?”
Her eyes widened at the loaded question. “I…I find a
challenge hard to resist.”
“Damn good thing I’m a challenge.”

Author Bio
A
devourer of books from an early age, I spent much of my childhood stepping into
wardrobes, searching for that magical snowy world where conversing with animals
would be expected. When I wasn't searching for those worlds, I wrote about them
instead. My first step into the world of romance was when I stole sneak peeks
into my nana's books. I'm still in that world and refuse to leave.
I live in
Staffordshire, UK, with my husband and three wonderful children. An avid reader
and writer of romance, I strongly believe that words make the world go around.
