Chasing Fire #1 The Innocent (BDSM Erotic Romance)
Chasing Fire, no. 1
Publisher Description
Billionaire Nick Pacelli has wanted Isabella from the moment she was old enough to stir his passion. It's only her sweet and gentle innocence that had stopped him from chasing her.
Sheltered Isabella Lupton has loved Nick Pacelli from afar, sure that a man of his power and experience would never be interested in someone like her. After a failed kidnapping attempt leaves Isabella terrified, Nick whisks her away to his home on a private island where the two of them can be alone. With gentle caresses and a firm hand, Nick teaches Isabella that love doesn't have boundaries, and that sometimes absolute trust is the only way to discover the truth.
SNEAK PEEK!
Nick’s deep voice had lowered to a seductive rumble of sound. It made her shiver with awareness and she held back a curse when his sharp eyes seemed to catch the telling movement. What was going on? Was he flirting with her?
“It’s important that you know I’ll keep you safe, Belle. Now, I want to know if you meant what you said to me at the party.”
“I…” Isabella struggled to focus on earlier that night, everything after that was still kind of hazy. Perhaps she shouldn’t have had those extra drinks after all. But she did remember seeing Nick with his current girlfriend and hearing the news about his upcoming engagement.
She stiffened in her seat. “I’m not sure what you are talking about, but I’m hoping I wished you well and offered my congratulations.”
A small smile flickered on his perfect lips before he stretched his long legs out, bracketing her feet between his. She was mesmerized by the intensity in his electric blue eyes that seemed to see straight into her soul. What had she said to him that night? Licking her lips nervously, her brows furrowed as he groaned.
“You can’t do that to me.”
Confusion had her asking, “What?”
“Lick those pretty pink lips. It makes me want to lick them too.”
Isabella let out a gasp. “You…what?”
Nick sighed. “Clearly, there are some things we need to talk about. First of all, let me say that there is no need for congratulations. At least not concerning Victoria. Things are well over between us.”
“The three-week rule,” Isabella murmured before she could stop herself.
He frowned at her. “The what?”
She took a deep breath then braced herself as she looked him in the eye. “It’s the three-week rule. You always date whatever woman you are seeing for three weeks then switch to someone new. Victoria lasted three weeks and then some. No wonder she thought you were getting married.”
Nick’s frown deepened. “I had promised her that I would take her to that event, and I always keep my promises. But things have been over between us for a while now. You seem to know quite a bit about who I’ve been seeing, Belle.”
Isabella gave a careless shrug as if it meant nothing to her, but inside her heart pounded. “Everyone knows your tastes, Nick. It’s pretty well known you prefer tall, beautiful, blondes.”
Nick slowly shook his head, keeping his eyes on hers. “No, baby. I may have dated blondes, but I wouldn’t say they were what I prefer.”
She looked at him quizzically and let out a forced chuckle. “Really, Nick…how can you say that when all you do is date blondes? It’s like most of the women you’ve dated could be copies of one another.”
“Exactly. I dated them because they didn’t remind me of what I really wanted.”
Isabella’s heart thudded in her chest at that. She forced herself to ask the question. “What do you want, Nick?”
With quick movements, he deftly unbuckled his seatbelt then reached across the short distance and undid hers. Before she knew it she was sitting on his lap. “Nick!”
Isabella squirmed as she tried to free herself from his hold then froze as she felt the hard proof of his desire for her nestled between the globes of her ass. Her eyes flew to his. Shock filled her as she saw the hunger simmering there, making his eyes flame.
“I—I don’t understand…”
“I think you do,” Nick growled before took her lips in a heated kiss....
