From New York Times
bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones, the first book in the CARELESS WHISPERS
series.
Please note: This is
the standalone spinoff of the INSIDE OUT series. New readers can enjoy this
without reading INSIDE OUT but those who love INSIDE OUT will FINALLY find out
what happened to Ella!
Ella Ferguson awakes
alone in Italy, unsure of who she is, and a gorgeous man has claimed her as his
own. He's tall, dark, and sexy, with money and power, the kind of man who makes
a girl want to be possessed. And he does possess her, whispering wicked
wonderful promises to her, stealing her trust and her heart. Soon though, the
past finds her, yanking her from a cocoon of passion and safety. Everything is
not how it seems. The truth will shatter her world, but it can set her free, if
it doesn't destroy her first.
Excerpt (Steamy)
His hand slides to my
back and he leans me toward the table, forcing me to catch myself on my elbows.
He holds me there, his body cradling mine, his lips a breath from a touch. “I
won’t let you fall.”
“I know,” I say, and I
do now. Beyond time and reason, I trust this man.
His mouth brushes mine
and then trails down my jaw, slowly teasing a path to my ear, where he
whispers, “I’m not going to claim to own you the way he did.” He flattens his
hands on my belly, possessiveness in the touch. “I’m just going to make you
wish I did.”
My lips part with the
erotic promise, and he is already kissing me, licking into my mouth, his tongue
a sultry, seductive promise that he can make good on his vow. And while I do
not wish anyone to own me again, I want what he offers in a way that defies
reason.
He nips my lips and
licks away the sweet ache, and somehow I feel that lick between my thighs where
I am already wet and aching. His whiskers rasp on my cheek, down my neck to my
shoulder, a wicked burn that is torment and pleasure at the same time. Like he
is. His hands settle on my waist, lingering there, teasing me with all the
places they could go, until finally he is caressing my body, up and down, a
slow, sexy, torturous exploration.
He pinches my nipples
again and he is not gentle, but I do not seem to want gentle. My sex clenches
and my knees crush his hips. His lips curve to a small, satisfied smile that is
wickedly sexy, and rawly male. He leans in and licks one of my throbbing
nipples, sending a shiver down my spine, and I arch upward, the table biting
into my elbows, but I do not care. He is sucking me, dragging deep on the
knotted peak, and pleasure tingles through my nerve endings, my sex, forcing my
legs to squeeze his hips again.
My arms tremble with my
weight and he responds without me asking, moving closer and laying me on top of
the table. My spine flattens on the hard surface and he lingers above me. “I
want more.”
“More what?”
“Everything,” he says,
his lips nuzzling my ear as he repeats, “Everything, Ella. Can I have it?”
The question affects
me, but not as much as the way he waits, genuinely seeking my approval. He
takes power but somehow gives it to me as well, and this is freedom to me,
safety. Things I do not think I have often felt in my life. “Yes,” I whisper.
“Yes.”
He inhales as if my
approval surprises and pleases him, as if it is a gift he relishes, not a
property he owns. And it is then that I give myself the freedom to just let go,
the muscles in my body easing in ways they hadn’t before. I do give him
everything. His mouth caresses mine and he whispers, “That’s what I wanted,” as
if he knows I’ve made that decision.
And already his lips
are traveling down my neck, tongue flicking here and there, his hand caressing,
squeezing my breast. He assaults my senses with pleasure, touching me, kissing
me, driving away my memories and enemies. His whiskers rasp my belly, his lips
pressing to the center, his tongue flickering into my navel, and I tremble with
the silent promise it will soon be where I want it to be. His hand flattens
over my sex, inches lower until he is flicking my clit, back and forth, back
and forth.
He lifts my legs to his
shoulders, spreading me wide, and I am vulnerably his, and aroused beyond
belief. He lowers his head, his breath a warm tease on my sensitive places, and
I grip the edge of the table, bracing myself for what is to come. He laps at my
nub, the barely there touch, and I am breathing hard, wishing I could touch
him, incapable of moving, and the muscles of my sex clench so tightly it hurts.
He licks my clit and I
am both relieved and on edge in the same moment, ready for more, for that
everything he has promised me. Another lick follows. Yes, please, more, I
think, and as if he’s heard my silent plea, he gives it to me. His hands slide
beneath my backside and he lifts me to his mouth, and it is nothing shy of
sweet bliss when his mouth closes down around me. He sucks, drawing deeply on
my sensitive flesh, lapping at me, licking me again in all the right ways and
right places. I am panting and moaning, and I barely recognize the sounds as my
own. Sensations ripple through me and when his fingers slide inside me, I am
undone, tumbling into orgasm. The intensity jerks my body and I lose all time
and space. It’s escape, sweet, blissful escape, and he keeps me there, slowly
bringing me down, the licks of his tongue growing softer, slower. Until I am
sated, limp, and he pulls me back onto his lap, my head resting on his
shoulder, his hand flattening between my shoulder blades.
“Everything or
nothing,” he whispers, and this time, I do not believe he is talking about
orgasms and pleasure.
I lean back to look at
him, and the idea of what we are becoming is a sweet seduction, threatened by
the emptiness of my past. “What if everything is too much?”
He drags two fingers
down my cheek. “Sweetheart, I don’t have a ceiling. We’re going to find out if
you do.”
