Fiona has been my best friend for a long time, the person whose shoulder I cried on when I found out my parents had lost their lives in a tragic car accident. When she asks me to spend winter break with her and her dad at their estate, I leap at the chance.
I expect the gorgeous snowy landscapes. I expect the Maine cold. But what I don’t expect is for Saul Sykes, her forty-one year old dad, to be an absolute silver fox. Standing at seven foot and dripping with carnal sexuality, it’s hard to take my eyes off him.
I know this is wrong, and all I can do is comfort myself with the knowledge that he’d never, in a million years, be interested in a twenty year old zoology student … with curves to boot.
But when Fiona goes out one night, leaving me and Saul alone in his giant mansion, I find myself the target of his possessive gaze and his alpha’s smirk.
In a fire of lust, we come together. He tells me he’s claiming me, that I belong to him now, always. And – I’m sorry, Fiona – it feels so good to be claimed by this millionaire ex-Formula One driver. He knows all the right gears to touch and he has a fast track on our desire.
We get pulled deeper and deeper into the lust and the romance. It seems impossible not to with the beautiful winter landscape of Saul’s large property, a secret secluded place where I don’t have to think about being the curvy virgin with her head perpetually stuck in a book.
But I know that sooner or later, Fiona is going to find out. And then what happens? How the heck am I supposed to choose between my best friend and the man of my dreams?
