The O’Sullivan’s are members of the Irish Mafia and Kelly is on of those O’Sullivan brothers. He is a dangerous man and he finds out that someone has been doubling crossing them and doing things that they shouldn’t. When Kelly goes to him he offers him the only thing he has that is worth more than anything in the world to him. His daughter Marlowe. Kelly is draw to Marlowe and who his he to turn down this deal. That would be just stupid on his part. But Marlowe is not weak woman. She is of course beautiful and has a very sassy mouth and is going to fight Kelly at every turn if she has to. But she was to quick to judge a book by it’s cover and soon discovers there is more to Kelly than she thought. There is not denying the fire these two have for each other. But things are not as they seem and it seems the cartel wants Marlowe too? What will happen and how will they fight off the cartel? And will they win? You have to read to find that out but I will tell you that this book is full of danger, fast passed and will keep you on the edge of your seat. I really loved it and can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
“We’re having this out right now.” Kelly whirled me around and left me panting in pure fury.
“Oh yeah? Are you going to gag me again? Or can I actually talk this time?” I sniped. “Because so far you’ve held me at gunpoint—”
“Not really.” His jaw bulged.
“Taken me under duress and kissed me against my will!”
“Against your will, huh?” His voice emerged deceptively silky. “Where’s the woman who held a dagger at my balls then?”
Our labored breathing beat across the air as we stared one another down.
I tossed my hair over a shoulder. “Do you want to talk now or just play with knives?”
He unsheathed his wicked matte black blade with a hiss of metal against leather. “I know what my vote is.”
Kelly aimed a sinful smile at me when he said that.
Well, he was not about to intimidate me.
I marched right into the bedroom, whipped my dagger from my bag, and spun to find him stalking straight after me. And his hooded eyes gleamed as sinisterly as the KA-BAR.
He lowered into a predator’s stance but didn’t immediately lunge for me.
We circled one another warily while warring compulsions coursed through me. To cut him, to gut him . . . to hurl the knife away then throw myself at him to get another taste of his lips.
Crouched low, he looked even bigger, and power radiated off of him.
I darted into his space—seeking to slash him—but he easily parried my thrust before retreating.
Losing some of my poise, I wildly lashed at him again.
That time, Kelly’s huge blade clashed against mine, and the metal screeched together. Ultimately, he pushed my knife up so I lost all leverage and nearly toppled onto my ass.
I jumped back into fighting mode, flinging my hair from my face and jabbing quickly at his midsection.
His nostrils flaring, he dodged each well-aimed stab.
The ease with which he deflected me was infuriating.
“Come on already. Give me your best shot!” I shouted in frustration.
So far, I’d been the aggressor, and he’d agilely avoided each of my lunges.
More quickly than a man as big as him should be able to move, he advanced. The massive KA-BAR swirled nimbly in front of me in a flash of metal.
When he retreated, cool air fluttered along my torso.
In the blink of an eye, he’d shredded my blouse, and the fabric hung limply from my shoulders.
“How’s that for my best shot?”
Before I could react to the shock of his brazen bladework, he had that knife against me again. He flicked the black steel so fast, I felt just the whisper of cold metal against my flesh before he withdrew again.
I looked down in disbelief as my bare breasts jiggled, my pearly white bra in ruins. He’d practically denuded me without inflicting a single nick to my flesh.
Slowly lifting my head, I stared at the man.
A smug smirk curved his mouth, and heat spread from his half-mast eyes to permeate my entire body.
Keeping his gaze snared, I wore a smirk of my own, if little else. With a sinuous roll of my shoulders, I let the torn blouse and tattered bra slip down my arms and off my fingers.
Then I sauntered to the broad-shouldered, bronze-haired giant, clasping my dagger and dancing it across the air between us.
Kelly kept his blade by his side that time.
He seemed entranced by my bouncing breasts and obnoxiously tight nipples, but I wasn’t foolish enough to think he’d give up all control quite so easily.
When I reached him, I laid the flat side of my slim blade against the evident erection in his faded jeans. “Did you really want my dagger at your dick again?”
He clenched his KA-BAR but remained otherwise unmoving.
“As hot as this is, I’d rather have your mouth on my cock. At least with you sucking me, you won’t be able to talk back.”
The deep drugging tone of his voice almost robbed me of breath. His filthy comment should make me want to slice my blade into him. But it didn’t.
I drew the dagger up then flipped the tip beneath the hem of his T-shirt. “Well, what’s good for the goose . . .”
He inhaled sharply as his arms flexed into dangerously hard weapons themselves. “Just don’t geld me.”
I caressed his abs with my knife. “I wouldn’t dare.”
It only took three deft slices of my blade to destroy his shirt like he’d done mine. He jerked the remnants off with an indrawn breath so every single muscle on his chest stamped into high tattooed relief.
The electric atmosphere between us transformed from fury to desperate fire.
Feeling all superior with my more feminine dagger, I bragged, “You see? Bigger doesn’t always mean better.”
Another insidious smirk cut across his bearded face and then he placed his KA-BAR and the two guns onto his dresser within easy reach.
He never once lost contact with my eyes as his hands moved to the waist of his jeans.
In mouthwatering slow motion, Kelly popped his jeans open. He shucked them off along with everything else until he stood—hard, tall, inked, and majestic—in front of me.
“Bigger doesn’t mean better?” His eyebrow spiked high then he looked down at himself. “You sure about that?”
I followed the line of his sight as if magnetized.
And then I felt faint.
