Excerpt From: Battle of Thrills

Friday

Their private game began almost by accident.

At seven p.m., Elle Matthews headed for the bathroom to transform herself for her night out. After wriggling into a tiny mini-skirt and a clinging shirt that showed just the right amount of cleavage, she returned from the bathroom to find Jared at her workstation, studying the background research she’d been about to drop by his desk on the way out.

Jared Lancaster, one of the Beechbank Courier’s star journalists and a close friend. Intelligent, often impatient, but always there for her.

Except in a friends-with-benefits way. She didn’t even dare hint at her attraction to him—workplace romances could be so messy, and screwing up her friendship with Jared wasn’t on her agenda.

He noticed her change of clothing and raised an eyebrow, smiling a little. “Going out?”

“Friend’s birthday,” she explained, plucking the file from his hands and hoping she wasn’t blushing. “And I wasn’t finished with that.”

Ignoring his glare, she picked up a pen from her desk. It slipped through her fingers and skittered across the floor towards Jared, and they both bent to pick it up at the same time, ending up crouching scarcely a foot from each other.

He grabbed the pen first and handed it to her. She took it with murmured thanks, then glanced up at him as she began to rise.

The expression on his face stole the breath from her lungs, and she could have sworn he was looking down her shirt a moment ago…

Her mind in turmoil, Elle straightened and turned to the research document. Trying to reorder her thoughts, she dropped into her desk chair, filled out the paperwork on the last page and slotted it into the file.

Holding it out to Jared, she crossed her legs, forgetting she really shouldn’t do that in this skirt. His eyes strayed to her exposed thighs, and she was pretty sure he got a glimpse of her thong, too…

“See something you like?” she asked softly, pushing back her nerves and focussing on the desire his gaze provoked.

He took the file from her, not bothering to look through it. Keeping his gaze locked on hers, he said, “I’m not playing your games, Elle.”

“Okay,” she agreed easily, shrugging. “Let’s play yours.”

Loved this book!

Reviewed by Heather from Florida

Wow, I really wish I could give this book something higher than a 5. I love the thrill of the chase between two people and in this book, the characters make it into a game. The teasing and tempting was completely erotic and so much fun to read. I was impressed with how the characters played the game and how far they went without acting on what they both want. I would say that I would have rather the book been longer or at least a full novel but it's not only the characters getting teased and I don't think I could have lasted much longer myself :)
