| SAY YOU'RE MINE Spellbound Book 1 Not even magic will save her from falling for the one man she shouldn’t. There are two things Violet Calder knows. Magic. And that cops and witches don’t mix. Fantasizing about the sexy detective doesn’t help matters, not when her own clumsiness lands her in the middle of Reece Prescott’s undercover assignment. Forced to pretend the gorgeous Violet is his girlfriend is one more nail in his coffin as far as Reece is concerned. From day one the Calder family has been a pain in his backside, and that doesn’t look like it’s about to change. But keeping his mind on bringing down a drug dealer gets increasingly difficult with Violet so close. Knowing she has to tread carefully to protect her family, Violet begins to fear that not even magic will save her from falling for the one man she shouldn’t. EXCERPT She slipped the phone back into her purse. “So how long until this meeting?” She noticed the dashboard clock read almost nine o’clock. “A couple hours maybe.” The rest of the drive to her place was spent staring out the window as the light mist changed to a heavy downpour. When he pulled into her driveway, she opened the door and made a dash for it. Even the short sprint didn’t save her from getting halfway drenched. Made worse by the fact that her keys to the main door weren’t in her purse. Reece caught up to her. “What’s the hold up?” She dug into her bag, convinced she’d missed them. “I’m looking…for my keys.” Where the hell were they? Had she lost them in her fall through the fence? She tried to remember whether or not her purse had been open or closed when she’d taken her little stroll around Mrs. Bourne’s back yard. Damn it. “Maybe I left them in your car.” Reece sighed, but turned and plunged back into the pouring rain. Violet stared at the doorknob. “Patefacio.” The handle turned easily in her hand. “I got it,” she called over her shoulder. Slipping off her shoes, Violet headed down the hall of her bungalow and straight for her bedroom. Her dress was plastered to her skin, and she wanted out of it. “Oh good, you’re changing.” Reece strolled into her room like he’d been there a hundred times before. This was one of the rare times she could actually appreciate her mother’s neat freak ways rubbing off on her. There wasn’t a bra or a pair of questionable underwear in sight. Violet frowned as his words sank in. Keeping her front averted, she asked, “What is wrong with what I’m wearing?” She happened to know this dress earned her the occasional long, hot look, so he couldn’t mean it wasn’t sexy enough, could he? “It’s just not appropriate,” he said vaguely. “We’re going to a rave. I don’t think a pant suit will work.” He flipped through the clothes hanging in her closet. “Don’t you have something less…revealing?” She grabbed the turtleneck sweater he’d snagged from a hanger and replaced it. “Maybe you didn’t hear me. It’s a rave.” He took a step towards her, his voice low and smooth. “And I can’t keep my eyes off you in that dress.” Violet shivered, his proximity setting off a chain reaction of hot bursts that zipped along her nerve endings. She tipped her chin up. “I’m not changing.” She didn’t care that the dress was too wet to wear out at this point. He wasn’t going to tell her what to do. “Take off the dress.” “Make me.” As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized the challenge in them. “We don’t have time for this.” Reece made no move to back away. Instead his gaze focused on her lips. Her stomach clenched. The tightening between her thighs pulsed under his hungry stare. “I’d say we have a problem then.” Reece took the last step separating them. He planted one hand against the closet door next to her head. “And what do you suggest we do about it?” His mouth hovered an inch above her jaw. Violet closed her eyes. “You’re the cop. You tell me.” He pushed the thin strap of her dress off her shoulder. “I thought I already had.” Get a sneak peek at Chapter One! |
