In his father’s eyes, Dylan Deveraux is just a playboy spending the family fortune on prostitutes, alcohol, and fast cars. And it isn’t even with the cars his father produces. Because of that, his father forbids his presence at the ball that will mark the launch of the US plant of his company, strategically scheduled on Valentine’s Day.
Hayley Allen is a failing model with the worse luck in the world. She always ends up in the hands of cruel designers and photographers. At least, that’s what she tells herself. Better than admit having a weak nervous system that always reacted during her gigs. Desperate, she would do anything to help her career.
Dylan shows up at her door, wasted as usual. Friends for a long time, Hayley is the only one able to put up with Dylan’s bullshit, and he appreciates that, but not the way her heart wants.
Even though he doesn’t believe in Valentine’s Day, Dylan has an idea for his father’s ball. When he suggests a deal to Hayley, a deal that could finally put her in the spotlight of success and help him impress his father, she doesn’t hesitate. Even if it means hurting her heart a little more.
Excerpt:
Dylan
kissed Hayley, his lips moving slowly at first, afraid of getting her madder
than she already was, afraid of falling under her spell more than he already
had. But her scent burned his nostrils, her sweet taste teased his mouth, and
he lost it. His need grew, and he increased the speed and pressure of the kiss.
Startling him, she matched his new rhythm, her soft lips moving along with his,
her nails scratching the back of his shoulder, sending shivers down his spine,
shaking his core. Wanting more of her, needing more of her, he slid his hands
up her bare back, rubbed her silky skin, glued himself to her. He loved her
skin on his, her warmth mingled with his.
Dylan
could have kissed her forever, and he would have, were it not for Dorant.
“Perfect,”
the photographer said, destroying the moment. “And that’s a wrap. We’re done
here, people.”
The
kiss slowed, their hands drew back, and finally Hayley pulled her head back,
breaking the kiss, her wide eyes on his.
Damn,
he missed her lips already.
“Hayley,
I—”
She
walked away without hearing him. Perhaps, it was for the best, since he wasn’t
sure what to say. He felt he needed to say something, to fix them, to fix their
friendship.
