BLURB:
It’s Halloween night and a masquerade party is in full swing at Brannigan’s Pub where Kelly Allen works as a waitress. But Kelly is not working tonight. Instead, she has donned a saloon girl’s costume and has set out to seduce the man of her dreams, Liam Brannigan. She’s been in love with her boss almost from the first, and tonight, hiding behind her costume and mask, she can keep her identity a secret as she attempts to seduce him into one long, hot night of pleasure.
Liam Brannigan is enthralled with the lady
behind the mask. Sensual and mysterious, she is every man’s fantasy and he
wants her from the moment she saunters up to the bar. But she is much more than
just a one night stand. Liam is determined to remove her mask and claim the
lady as his very own. Can he convince her to reveal her identity or will she
walk out of the bar and his life forever?
TEASER:
Liam worked his way down the bar, serving up tall, cold mugs of beer and mixing drinks until he finally reached her far corner. “Welcome to Brannigan’s, pretty lady. What can I get you?” His smooth, deep tones rolled across her skin like a caress. He stood in front of her with his hands on his hips and a twinkle in those deep blue eyes. His shirt was open at the top, emphasizing the strong column of his neck and offering her a tantalizing glimpse of his impressive chest. Really, the man was too sexy to be let out amongst the regular population.
She frowned when she realized he was
staring at her. Glancing down, she had a quick peek at her cleavage to make
sure she hadn’t fallen out of the bustier. It was close. Her breasts swelled
against the lace trim, but her nipples were still covered. Barely.
Her head jerked up when she felt his
fingers beneath her chin. But instead of releasing her, his hand cupped her jaw
and he leaned closer. For a moment she thought he might kiss her. Her lips
parted in anticipation. His breath was warm on her moist mouth. He was close.
So very close.
“What can I get you?” His voice was so soft
and seductive it took a few seconds for her to process the meaning of his
words. She jerked her head back in embarrassment, her cheeks heating. While
she’d been all but undressing the man with her eyes, he’d been waiting for her
to order.
“White wine, please.” Her tone was briskly
matter-of-fact and Kelly wanted to bang her head against the bar in
frustration. She wasn’t supposed to use her regular voice. She’d practiced
lowering her voice and speaking more slowly and sensually.
But Liam had turned away to fill her drink
order, giving no indication that he recognized her. Good. All wasn’t lost. She
could do this. She knew she could. When he placed her glass on the bar in front
of her, she smiled at him. “Thank you, handsome.” This time, her voice was
mellow with a come-hither tone.
He smiled his pirate’s grin. “You’re
welcome. You here with anyone?”
This was it. This was her chance. Trying
not to seem too eager, she picked up her glass and took a long sip. Lowering
the glass back to the bar, she licked her lips, allowing her tongue to stroke
across first the upper and then the lower lip. His eyes tracked every movement
of her tongue.
