She can’t resist him forever…
Sean Donovan is a man on a mission—to discover who is behind the popular relationship column that has transformed his family-owned magazine into Miami’s hippest glossy. But Tate Dennison isn’t the sassy columnist the hardworking bachelor expected. Nor is he prepared for the flash fire of passion the stunning single mother arouses.…
The hunky magazine executive wants to mix business with pleasure, but Tate has one hard and fast rule: never fall for the boss! The once-burned advice columnist has no intention of becoming the devastatingly attractive playboy’s latest conquest. But what woman can resist Sean’s charms? Once she’s sampled his kisses, can Tate protect her heart—even when a sabotage plot threatens the Donovan empire and their possible future together?
“So you’re afraid of getting involved with the boss?” he said.
“I’m not afraid of anything,” she snapped.
“Really?”
He moved closer, and she backed right into the hallway wall until there was nowhere else for her to go. Her arms shifted to a defensive stance folded over her chest. She took that stance often enough that he was beginning to read the warning signs. But it wasn’t going to stop him, not this time. He pressed even closer. “Are you sure you’re not afraid of me? Of what I make you feel?” he whispered, lowering his face closer to hers.
“You don’t make me feel anything,” she said, but her breath was soft and airy.
“I don’t make you feel like you want to be made love to? Like you want my hands on your body, my lips on yours?”
She shook her head, her lips clamping tight as she swallowed.
“Prove it,” he said, touching his lips lightly to hers. “Prove you’re not afraid.”
His lips slid along hers once more.
“How?” she breathed against him.
“Kiss me. Just this once, Tate, kiss me.”

Dear Reader,
You’ve already met Dion of the Miami Donovans, and now you’ll get to see his younger brother fall in love.
Sean is the younger brother, the more serious and business-minded Donovan, with a heart of gold that he’s been waiting to share with the right woman. Enter Tate Dennison, a single mother with a troubled past. I love writing stories with children because I feel they add another dimension to what’s emotionally at stake when two people fall in love. Little Briana weaves an impenetrable knot around Sean’s heart from the start, making it hard for Tate to resist him.
I hope you’ll enjoy this segment of the Donovans.
Happy reading,
AC

Prologue
He never dreamed, at least not this vividly. But he felt everything as if she were rubbing her hands over his skin right at this very moment. He tasted the sweetness of her lips on his and caught himself puckering with the thought.
