He’s tempting her in ways she never imagined…
Working undercover has its advantages…especially when Ryan Manning encounters one of the most beautiful women he’s ever seen. The investigative reporter took to the streets of Beverly Hills to expose the plight of the homeless. Now he’s installed in Sage Alexander’s fabulous luxury resort and spa…being given the royal five-star treatment by the hotel heiress herself!
Something about the tall, handsome stranger in rugged clothing touches Sage’s heart—until she discovers who he really is. Stung by his deception, Sage vows to keep her distance from Ryan. But it’s too late, she can’t control her feelings—or her passion—for the courageous journalist. Ryan’s masquerade is over, but is their love affair just beginning?
Sage loved the way Ryan’s kissable lips parted when he laughed that deep,
throaty laugh. He was a very handsome and sexy man—a striking contrast
to when she’d met him for the first time.
At the end of the evening, Ryan escorted her up to her place.
Sage unlocked her door, then turned to face Ryan. He leaned over and kissed her. “I really enjoyed our first date.”
She resisted the urge to touch the place where his lips had been. Her heart was racing, and Sage could feel her blood rushing through her veins.
She glanced up at Ryan, who said, “I didn’t offend you just now, did I?”
“No, you didn’t,” she answered quickly. Sage’s heart fluttered wildly in her chest
His nearness sent a shiver of wanting through her. “Not at all.”
Ryan pulled Sage into his arms, his mouth covering hers hungrily.
She returned his kiss with a hunger that belied her outward calm. Burying her face in his neck, Sage breathed a kiss there.
“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to kiss you,” Ryan confessed.
“Probably as many times as I’ve wanted you to kiss me.”

Dear Reader,
How many times do we walk past someone who is homeless? How many times do we take a few minutes just to get to know the person? It’s one thing to give a few dollars, but Sage Alexander decided to do something more. In the second book of The Alexanders of Beverly Hills series, Sage encounters a man on the street who will forever change her life. Ryan Manning is an investigative reporter who is passionate when it comes to the plight of the homeless. He goes undercover and is surprised not only by Sage Alexander’s generous and caring nature, but also by his feelings for her.
This is a cause I have been involved in for years, so it’s natural that I would want to write a story about the plight of the homeless. It is my goal to entertain you with a romantic story, but also give you pause for thought the next time you encounter someone down on his/her luck. I hope you will enjoy the ride as you learn more about Ryan and Sage.
May you find it a temptation that is much too hard to resist.
Best regards,
Jacquelin
