The Man I Shouldn't Want: A Game of Seduction and Lies Novel Synopsis
“Did you think about me?” His voice is low, smooth, the kind of tone that could melt steel.I swallow hard, barely able to find my voice. “I couldn’t stop.”
Ric steps closer, his body brushing mine, and his hand lifts to cup my jaw. “Good,” he murmurs, his thumb grazing my lip.
“Because I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you.”
He leans in, his lips hovering just over mine. But before I can lose myself in the kiss, he pulls back slightly, his eyes narrowing.
“Who was that man you were talking to earlier?” The question is sharp, possessive.
“Chris? He’s just an old co-star,” I say, caught off guard by the shift. “Why?”
“Because I didn’t like the way he was looking at you,” Ric says, his thumb brushing my lip again, silencing me. “Like he had a chance.”
I blink, a shiver running down my spine. I shouldn’t like this. I shouldn’t like the way Ric is possessive, the way he’s so intensely focused on me.
But it makes me feel desired in a way I haven’t felt in years. My heart hammers in my chest, and I can’t deny that I want him more because of it.
“There’s nothing between us,” I say softly, placing my hand on his chest. “Only you.”
“Good. Because if you're just fooling around, you picked the wrong man,” he announces in a dangerously low whisper.
