Серия The Chandler Legacy
Издательство HarperCollins
Two rivals. One desire.
Stunning, sensual Puerto Rico is the perfect place to combine business with pleasure. Yet Chloe Chandler can’t indulge her attraction to Donovan Rivers when they cross paths at a convention. Heir to an exclusive Long Island venue, Donovan is vying to host the same A-list gala that her parents’ restaurant hopes to gain. And as events director for her family’s empire, Chloe and her loyalty are being tested by an intense longing for a man who’s determined to win both her...and the client.
An in-demand bachelor who plays by his own rules, Donovan never stops until he gets what he wants. Falling for his beautiful competitor will anger their families, but Chloe has already sacrificed too much to please others. Now Donovan intends to show her everything she’s been missing—including the heat of his embrace. But when the competition comes between them, will their ambitions force them to lose out on love?
Holding her hand, Donovan led the way to the balcony, welcoming the cooling ocean breeze. “Are you enjoying yourself?”
“Am I?” Chloe asked breathlessly, wiping her brow once again. “I haven’t had this much fun in so long. Thanks.”
Donovan’s response was a smile. He looked out over the water, listening to the sound of the waves. Still holding her hand, they stood silently on the terrace, allowing the gentle wind to lick away the sweat generated from their sensual dance. Rays of moonlight bobbled on the water, inviting Donovan to the shore.
“Let’s go,” he whispered to Chloe, then he paid the bill and led her through the restaurant to the exit facing the sea. Donovan removed his shoes and rolled the hem of his pants to just above his ankles. Chloe followed suit, removing her sandals and knotting the end of her dress below her knees. Hand in hand, they walked to where the water met the sand. Chloe’s hand felt good in his, as if it belonged. They stopped walking, still holding hands, and turned to watch the evening’s light dance across the ripples in the midnight blue water.
I hope you truly enjoy taking this romantic and somewhat bumpy journey with Chloe Chandler and Donovan Rivers in my new series about the Chandler family. Could you ever imagine falling for the one person that your family could never accept? Chloe and Donovan seem to do just that. Donovan coaxes a side of Chloe to the surface that she had buried long ago. She starts to enjoy exploring her new self and sexy Donovan Rivers. Their affair begins as a fun little rendezvous in a lush, tropical setting in Puerto Rico, but desire follows them back to New York, where there’s much at stake, like family loyalty and business contracts. Donovan doesn’t only rock her world, he steals her heart, and now Chloe has to determine if she’s going to please her family or please her heart and become Donovan’s lady.
Enjoy the ride.
Ciao,
Nicki
