Enticing Emma
The second book in the sexy Summersville Secrets series by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author N. J. Walters!
Damaged by betrayal . . .
Emma Howard learned the hard way that charming, good-looking men can’t be trusted, and she’s perfected the art of keeping her distance—until Tucker Martin moves into her apartment building. Their immediate physical attraction to one another is explosive, and she welcomes the opportunity to explore her newly awakened sexuality. But after a heated night of passion, Emma pulls away, unwilling to believe that a man who has everything she wants will want to stick around.
Driven by desire . . .
Tucker has wanted Emma since the first moment he laid eyes on her, and his need only grows more intense after they spend one amazing night together—until Emma goes from insatiable to unreachable. Bewildered but not broken, he’s determined to prove to her that he’s as sincere as he is sexy. And as Tucker patiently sets out to win the woman of his dreams, he knows Emma will have to face her past before they can indulge in the pleasures of a deeply loving future.
This is a fully revised edition of a book originally published as Heat Wave.
Excerpt:
As soon as the door shut behind them, he kissed her. His lips barely grazed hers as he moved from side to side. Unconsciously, she leaned forward, wanting to deepen his touch. A whimper of need escaped her when he pulled just out of her reach.
She opened her eyes to find him smiling down at her. Well, maybe not a real smile, more of a slight upturn of the corners of his mouth. It was the expression of male satisfaction on his face that set off the first warning signal. But it was faint, and before it could take hold, he slowly leaned down and covered her mouth again.
Sighing, she parted her lips and invited him in. The man certainly knew how to kiss. Taking his time, he lazily tasted her lips, nibbling on the bottom one. Her purse fell to the floor with a thud when she raised her hands to his broad shoulders. Thick muscles rippled beneath her fingertips.
When he finally slipped his tongue inside her mouth, she sighed with relief. Still, he took his time, slowly stroking her tongue with his before exploring every crevice of her mouth. He didn’t challenge or try to overpower her. It was more an invitation to share with him.
Emma Howard couldn’t resist.
Her hands crept up the side of his neck and tunneled through his short, spiky black hair. She gripped the back of his head and angled his face so she could deepen their kiss. She felt a heady surge of power when he moved as she wished. Then she was lost in the erotic sensations assaulting her. She couldn’t get enough. Coffee, peppermint and Tucker.
Her brain barely registered the fact that she was moving. She was so wrapped up in their kiss she didn’t care where he took her. Nothing mattered except for the fact she was kissing him. The door pressed against her spine, stopping her backward momentum. He loomed over her, surrounding her with his sheer size and bulk.
Tucker Martin was six feet tall, but seemed much larger towering over her five-foot-five frame. His shoulders and chest were wide, his waist lean. His legs were long, his thighs thick with muscle.
Usually, large men made her uncomfortable, but somehow Tucker had managed not to intimidate her with his size. Until now. Now, she was very aware of the difference between them. But instead of alarming her, it only served to send a torrent of sexual awareness zinging through her.
