“There’s nothing more desirable than a woman who wants you, despite herself.”
Australian tycoon and international playboy Byron Maddox is used to getting what he wants. And for some reason, he wants shy PA Cleo Shelton.
Cleo is sure it’s only because she turned him down—finally free of an abusive marriage, Cleo is enjoying her independence, and has no intention of being under the thumb of another man! Especially a man she finds irresistibly alluring...
But Byron won’t be thwarted so easily—and when he proposes one sizzling night together, Cleo’s resistance crumbles under the force of his expert seduction!
‘I want to be alone with you, Cleo.’
Cleo sucked in a sharp breath. ‘Why?’ she blurted out before she could stop herself.
‘You know why,’ Bryon said quietly.
‘You...you want to have sex with me?’ It sounded incredible once she’d said it out loud. Cleo knew she wanted to have sex with him but had never imagined her desire was returned.
‘Yes, of course I do.’
His casual admission took her breath away. It also angered her.
‘I’ve wanted to have sex with you since thirty seconds after I met you,’ he added with a rueful smile in his voice and on his face.
If his earlier admission had taken her breath away, this one left her speechless.
‘Are you going to say something?’ he queried when she just sat there in stunned silence for several seconds.
‘But why?’
‘Why?’ he echoed thoughtfully. ‘Perhaps it’s because I glimpsed the real you underneath the drab facade.’
‘The real me?’ What on earth was he talking about?
‘The one who stared at me for a split second like I was a drink of water after a long and dusty desert trek.’
‘Oh,’ she said, embarrassed now.
‘There’s nothing more desirable,’ he said, ‘than a woman who wants you despite herself.’
