FORBIDDEN GETAWAY!
Lauren Blakely does it
again and brings readers more smoldering, sexy nights in her Seductive Nights
Series with her newest novel, FORBIDDEN NIGHTS.
A red-hot, scorching, sexy
standalone romance novel from NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Lauren
Blakely...
She has been the star of his dirty dreams for years.
Sexy hotel CEO Nate Harper
has lusted after his good friend Casey Sullivan for a long time, and she's
cried out his name in pleasure countless times in his fabulously filthy
fantasies. But even though he's quite skilled at pleasing a woman, he won't act
on his intense desire because he knows he's no good for her. After the kind of
hurt his ex inflicted on him, he's a committed playboy for life, and Casey only
wants true love.
All that changes one hot
night when she comes to him with a proposition he can't resist -- she wants him
to teach her to be submissive in the bedroom. Casey soon learns how very much
she likes letting go of control to him. She's never been more turned on in her
life than she is in Nate's arms. And he's never been more taken by a woman.
The only trouble is as she
experiences what it means to let go, he starts to experience what it means to
feel again...And the lessons in seduction threaten to turn into so much more
than either one bargained for...
What happens when years of desire and lust ignite a passion that can't
be denied?
*FORBIDDEN NIGHTS is a standalone full-length novel in the bestselling
SEDUCTIVE NIGHTS series following the love affair of Nate and Casey. There is
no cliffhanger in this book! You can read FORBIDDEN NIGHTS on its own, but you
would likely enjoy the other books too.*
An excerpt from FORBIDDEN
NIGHTS by Lauren Blakely
He
stood in the hallway wearing charcoal slacks, a crisp white shirt, and the navy
tie. Her fingers itched to unknot that tie. He was rolling up the cuffs on one
of the sleeves. A businessman at the end of the workday—that’s what she
would’ve named this photograph of him that she took in her mind’s eye.
“Did you open the box?”
She shook her head. He
entered her apartment and she let the door fall shut behind them with a click.
He strolled casually to her
kitchen, leaned against the counter, and tapped the wood.
She understood. The game was
on. They were playing their parts. Joining him in the kitchen, she grabbed the
bottle of whiskey and poured him a glass, doing her best to keep her hands
steady. She watched his every move as he knocked back the amber liquid. She
imagined the burn in his throat. He set the glass down. It was nearly empty.
She stood near him, keenly
aware that it was his move next.
This was a chess game, and
she barely knew how to play. She swallowed dryly. Waiting. Uncertain.
She wanted a burn in her
throat too. That would be better than all these nerves. She grabbed his glass
and finished it.
“Do you want to open the
box now?”
She nodded, grateful to
have been given his direction. “Yes. I do.”
He tipped his forehead to
the L-shaped couch in the living room.
She nodded briefly, and
walked over to the couch. She sank down into the soft material, stretching her
legs out in front of her on the lounge section, crossing them at the ankles. He
joined her in the living room, choosing to sit on an ottoman, his knees spread,
his hands resting on his thighs. “Open it now, Casey.”
Leaning forward, she
reached for the black box and untied the bow, letting it fall to the floor.
Gingerly, with nervous fingers, she lifted the top, shimmying it off. In
seconds, she’d know what he’d planned, and a ribbon of excitement unfurled
inside her from the possibilities. She wanted to say something, but words
escaped her at that moment. She wasn’t sure how to vocalize all these unsteady
feelings thrumming through her body.
Or if he would even
respond.
Nate had always been easy
to talk to. He’d always been chatty. But the man was wearing steely silence
like a new coat. All his moves were measured, chosen carefully, designed to
keep her guessing as to what he had in store for the evening.
She put the top of the box
on the table, and the guessing game ended when she dipped her hands inside the
box and withdrew a long, silky scrap of fabric—a blindfold. Next, she reached
for a soft object, retrieving a feather tickler from his collection of goodies.
Finally, there was a small riding crop, as if it had been made in miniature.
Perhaps, so it didn’t seem so scary. She glanced up at him. His eyes seemed
dark brown tonight. Gone was that warm golden color, replaced with a heat, a
sensuality and blazing desire for her.
She trembled. “What do you
want to use first?”
He didn’t answer her
question. Instead, he issued an instruction. “Lie back. Close your eyes.”
She did as told, scooting
into the couch. She hadn’t even turned on music, so she was keenly aware of
every sound. Of the low hum from the refrigerator, of the far-off din of
traffic, of the stirrings of a breeze. But there were no words from him. The
silence vibrated between them as she waited, the world dark behind her eyelids.
His fingers found their way
to the top of her stockings. Gently, he rolled them down, one by one, removing
them, along with her shoes. “Don’t get me wrong. These are unbearably sexy, but
I need your bare skin.”
Her world went pitch black.
He had pressed the silk blindfold over her eyes. “This is about you. About all
the things you can feel if you let go. With this on, all you can do is feel,” he said, low and husky, near her
ear. Oh God, she was feeling
everything. She was feeling the tight coil of desire deep inside her, and the
fervent hope that he’d take her to the far edge of pleasure. That’s what she
was feeling.
She drew a quick breath at
the soft fluttery touch from a feather running along the inside of her calves.
The feather brushed across her knee. Goosebumps rose on her flesh. Her skin
felt electric as the feather travelled across her body, visiting her belly,
teasing her breasts, trailing along her sides. When the sensations stopped briefly
she wanted to ask what happened, until she felt the feather once more.
He was tracing the shell of
her ear, and she gasped.
Warmth spread inside her
body. She had no idea that being touched on her ear would be such a turn on.
She had no notion either that she’d arch her back, seeking closeness, willing
him to touch more, when he ran the feather down her arm, inside her elbow and
across her wrist. “Your whole body is a playground,” he instructed. “For now,
until you learn to thoroughly give up control, it will be my playground. Isn’t that right, Casey?”
She nodded and moaned her
agreement in a voice she didn’t even recognize as her own.
“Then hike up your skirt
for me,” he told her.
Instantly, she responded to
his request. She reached for the hem, pulling it up. Her skirt was now bunched
at her waist. He stopped, and hissed in his breath. His audible reaction to her
body drove her arousal. They were a feedback loop of desire. She’d move; he’d
admire. He’d say a dirty word; she’d heat up. They fed each other with this
fevered kind of lust. She pictured him drinking her in, memorizing the way she
looked half-undressed on her couch.
Then, she was alone again
as she heard him rustling through the box. She knew what was in the box: three
things. She was wearing one of them. The other one he had already used. That
left only the one she feared. She tensed, waiting for soft to change to hard.
For tenderness to turn to a sting.
She emitted a small cry at
the first smack. He had flicked the crop once against the flesh of her outer
thigh. He shifted to the other, flicking her there. She let out a tiny yelp.
Reflexively, she closed her legs. She wasn’t sure if she liked the crop. She
parted her lips to speak, but then his fingertip pressed softly against her
mouth. “Shhh,” he said. “I can tell you don’t like it.”
In a second, he was
trailing the crop down her chest, underneath her bra, and along her rib cage.
Then it was gone.
He must have lifted it in
the air again, and she waited nervously for him to swat her. But instead, she
felt something hard against the wet panel of her panties. He was using the
riding crop against her clit, like a toy, turning something she hadn’t liked
into something she enjoyed immensely now. He rubbed one end across her
throbbing bundle of nerves, stroking her, sending the temperature inside of her
through the roof. She sought more friction, more contact, lifting her hips
closer. When he stopped, she heard a whooshing sound in the air, then a smack
against the hardwood floors. He’d tossed it away.
Next was the weight of his
body on hers, his soft voice in her ear, him whispering, “I never ever want to
do something to you that you don’t like. Do you understand that?”
“Yes.”
“You should only feel
pleasure with me. You should never feel anything less than desire,” he said,
and he was Nate now, the man she trusted inside and out.
The next thing she knew the
blindfold was falling loose, dropping to her nose, giving her sight again.
There he was, raised on his arms above her, and smelling like sex.
Tonight. God, she hoped he’d take her tonight. Reaching behind her head, he
untied the blindfold all the way, then brought it to her wrists, wrapping it
around them in a circle, and binding them together in a tight knot.
“I’m going to undress you
now.”
He laced his hands around
her back, unhooked her bra, and freed her breasts. Then he unsnapped her skirt,
tugged it down her hips, to her knees, and over her ankles, laying it neatly on
the couch.
His eyes roamed her body,
drinking her in from head to toe.
“The panties must go,” he
said, a clear command, now back into character.
She held up her bound
wrists as if to say you’re going to need
to be the one to take them off.
In one swift move, his
hands were on her hips, practically tearing them off, like a hungry, greedy man
eager for the prize.
He stood and stepped away
from her. He crossed his arms over his chest. “I want to watch you spread your
legs for me. Do it nice and slow. Like a tease. Make me so fucking hard, harder
than I already am, from the way you open your legs.”
