The fourth in the Inside Out erotic romance series by New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones, this steamy novel resolves Chris and Sarah's relationship and leads into Mark's story. "Chris and I have faced our demons and bared our souls to one another in Paris. Now that we are back home in San Francisco, I want to believe that nothing can tear us apart. Not Ava’s accusations against me to the police, or Chris's fear that he will destroy me as he feels he did Amber. And not Mark, who was once too intimately a part of our lives, and who I can see crumbling inside out. He believes he is invincible, just as I want to believe Chris and I are invincible. We have to be invincible. We need each other too much for any other ending."
Excerpt:
His voice is low, lethal. “Read.”
I open my mouth to argue but his look, the glint in his eyes,
freezes the words on my tongue. I don’t understand his reaction or why I’m
compelled to follow his order, but I do. Slowly, I lower my attention to the
entry, and begin to read.
Tonight he punished me. It was inevitable. I knew
this. Looking back, I wonder if I didn’t taunt him intentionally by flirting
with another man. I just…I don’t understand how he shares me, and yet he
possesses me. When I was on my knees, my hands tied to the posts of the podium,
waiting for the first smack of leather on my bare skin, I knew right then, if
no other time, I was his world. There was nothing outside the room, nothing but
what he wanted to do to me. What I wanted him to do to me. I craved the pain I
knew he would inflict, as I never believed I could. Pain. It is an escape. When
I feel the leather on my skin, I feel nothing else. There is none of the hurt
of the past. There is—
Chris takes the journal from me and tosses it on the table,
yanking me to him, his fingers curling around my neck in the way they do when
he is in control. “Is this what you’re fantasizing about, Sara?”
“No, I--”
“Don’t lie to me.”
“It’s…I don’t know what you want me to say.”
“You have no idea what you’re getting yourself into.”
But he does. I know it instinctively. “I’m not--”
His mouth closes down on mine, brutal and punishing, hot and
seductive, long strokes of his tongue caressing mine, until I can barely
breathe. When he finally relents, his hand moves roughly over my breast, and
his lips linger above mine, his breath hot, and his voice a near growl.
“You have no idea how tempting it is to give you a lesson
you’ll never forget.”
Yes. Yes please. Give me a lesson. Every part of me cries out
for him, for what he threatens me with. There is no fear. Only a white hot burn
and desperation. “Do it,” I challenge. “Do it, Chris.”
He pushes me down on the couch, framing my body with his.
“You don’t know what you are getting into, Sara.”
“Show me,” I pant. “Make me understand.”
He shoves my hands over my head. “Damn it, Sara. I should. I
should scare the shit out of you and throw those damn journals away.” He buries
his head in my neck and then he is gone, leaving me panting and empty inside.
I sit up, my sex aching and wet, my body screaming for some
unknown pleasure it’s been denied. Chris is standing with his back to me,
raking a hand through his long hair. “Fuck,” he curses, turning to me. “What
are you doing to me, woman?”
He’s at the edge and I’m hungry for what is on the other side
of his control. Starving in a way I never believed possible. Pushing to my
feet, I go to him and I don’t give him time to react. I drop to my knees and
caress the thick ridge of his erection. He wants me. He is aroused by the idea
of teaching me whatever lesson he spoke of. I am aroused by the idea as well.
“What are you doing, Sara?”
“Pleasing you like you do me.” I shove up his shirt and press
my lips to his stomach, popping his button at the same time.
“Sara,” he whispers, and I love the rough timbre of his
voice. I love knowing I am affecting him as he does me…
