BLURB:
In Venice, Allison Fox will find love in the
arms of two men. Her past collides with her future in a battle for her heart.
Which one will win?
Travelling to Venice to be the maid of honour in her best friend’s
wedding sounds like a great vacation, and a romantic way to spend Valentine’s
Day. But when Allison Fox discovers who the best man is, she is torn between
duty and self-preservation.
It has taken Allison four years to put her tumultuous relationship
with the rodeo cowboy behind her after a violent incident ripped them apart.
Now Allison must find a way to face her past and find closure with her old
flame. But will she be able to put the past behind her?
Cole is the Texas cowboy who has never got over his love for Allison.
But when he declares his love for her after all this time, is she strong enough
to walk away from the intense passion they share?
For years Nico, a handsome Italian, was committed to nothing but his
work. Nico never expected he would meet an American beauty who would awaken in
him a desire to love again. Once he finds her, Nico vows to never let Allison
go.
It will be a Valentine’s Day to remember, but who will win Allison’s
heart?

EXCERPT:
Upstairs,
as they tumbled into his room, Cole warned her, “Allison, you are going to have
to trust me tonight. Do you think you can do that?”
“Oh,
yes!” she cried between his kisses, barely catching her breath.
“Okay,
then hold on just a minute, baby. Do you want anything to drink? Do you have to
go to the bathroom?” he asked.
“No,
why?” she asked, her head clearing a little.
“Because
I am going to tie you up,” he said. Then he bit her lip, fondling one of her
breasts. Abruptly, he walked away, leaving her standing, shocked.
Allison
wasn’t sure she’d heard him correctly. She needed to sit down. Wait, maybe she
did need to go to the bathroom. Yes, then she could sit down. And go to the
bathroom. Tie her up? Was he serious?
Allison
knew Cole, and he didn’t kid around about things like this. What was she going
to do? Well, she would let him do it, of course. She let Cole do…anything? That
was why he had said she would have to trust him. She did trust him. She trusted
him not to hurt her. At least physically. Emotionally, now that was a different
story…
Okay,
she could do this. It might be fun.
Cole
had returned with some white silky ropes and a rakish grin. He looked like he
was really going to enjoy this. Maybe a little too much. How long had he been
planning this? Did he do this all the time? Allison wasn’t brave enough to ask
that last question.
“Are
you scared? You don’t need to be scared, babe. I promise I won’t hurt you.” He
laughed. “Unless you want me to.”
