But love is never that simple and an unusual twist of fate leads them back to each other ... although everything is different.

They say love conquers all, but can it conquer betrayal from someone who has promised to love you forever?
Praise for Hold On (Book 2 of the Alexa Reed series)
Sometimes you can be so damaged that nothing can heal the destruction that has been caused your soul. But then sometimes if you are really blessed you will be given a second chance and that is what this installment of Alexa’s life is all about. While reading this book your emotions will run rampant with what ifs and why nots! The feelings that you experience as you read this story make an unforgettable impression on your heart and will not be easily forgotten. – Twin Sisters Rockin’ Book Reviews
Hilary Wynne has completely blown me away yet again! This series has quickly become a favorite of mine. I became emotionally attached to these characters in book 1 "Stay". This book was no different. In this book I cried a lot, got so frustrated and then said WTF. Hilary hits you with a twist you don't see coming. – Eye Candy Bookstore
Promise Me - Clean Excerpt © Hilary Wynne 2015“Ever since you fell onto me in the stairwell, I’ve been unable to get a grip on how I’m feeling. I feel out of control and I fucking hate it.”
I can’t help but laugh even though he’s being serious. I smile down at him. “It’s called falling in love. Or being in love, and I’m glad you feel it too. I’ve been an emotional basket case since I fell on you in the staircase, and am glad it’s not just me. I spend my days feeling a little out of control. It only really gets better when I’m in your arms. That’s where I find my peace, and my balance.”
Julian sits up and turns to face me. He pulls me in for the night’s first kiss, and it’s tender and loving. “You make me feel everything, Alexa Reed. Todo. After Caroline left today, I wanted to call you. When I feel out of control I want to be near you. I stopped needing people a long time ago and you changed that. I need you.”
The kiss that started out tender turns more and more passionate as Julian pours his feelings into it. Somehow I end up under him, his body blanketing mine. We’re holding onto each other as tightly as possible. It’s one of those moments we often share, when we’re both trying to become one. I needed this from him. I need to know he still needs me.
“I love you. So much.”
“I love you too. And I’m sorry I have been giving you such a hard time the last few days. I know I haven’t been very easy to deal with.”
I pull away from his embrace for a minute so I can look him in the eyes. “Please don’t apologize for how you feel, or act. You’re amazing. You have a lot on your plate and it would be very unfair of me to expect you to just act like everything is the same as before. I just want you to love me. That’s all.”
Julian kisses my forehead, then my eyelids, and finishes with a gentle kiss on my lips. “I could never not love you. You’re in my heart, mi amor, para siempre.”

My whole body tenses
as she walks by me, and as soon as she passes the threshold, I shut the door
and lock it. I turn and face Julian and see he has the nerve to be laughing. I
walk over to his desk, push his chair back, hike my skirt up and climb onto his
lap. I put my lips on his and run my tongue across the seam of his lips. “It’s
not funny. I don’t like her and she wants to fuck you. Don’t argue with me
about it either because I know girls, and she’s so obvious with that outfit.
I’m not going to let it ruin my night because I’m the one here with you right
now and you’re going to fuck me, or I’m going to fuck you.”
I can’t remember the
last time I shocked Julian, but I guess I must’ve now because he’s speechless.
He stares at me and reaches around and slides his hands down my back. His hands
feel soft and warm as they move slowly down and stop just above my ass.
“Okay?”
Julian nods his head
slightly and lifts me off of his lap. He reaches up under my skirt and gently
pulls my panties off. He winks at me and smiles sexily. “I wanted to rip these
off of your sexy ass, but you will be putting them back on when we
get done fucking.” Julian licks his lips and I swear I have a mini orgasm as a
smoldering warmth courses through my body. I’m buzzed and feel a primal need to
claim my territory. All of my earlier craziness about the picture is gone as I
realize I have a real, current threat to contend with.
I lick my own lips
and reach down to unbuckle his belt. I also unzip his pants and watch as his
rock hard erection springs out into my waiting hand. “Have I told you lately I
love that you don’t wear underwear? I love the access.” I don’t wait for his
answer as I kneel in front of him and take him in my mouth. I feel Julian’s
strong hands tug gently on my ponytail as I slide my moist lips up one side of
his throbbing shaft and down the other. When I run my tongue slowly around his
soft head, I hear him moan deeply.
“Mmm, baby. You do
this so fucking well.”
I’m feeling
confident so when he puts his hand on my head and pushes down, making me take
him all the way in, I don’t resist. He begins thrusting into me and rolling his
hips rapidly. I can feel his legs start to shake. His movements are forceful
and uncontrolled, and it’s obvious he has no interest in prolonging his
release. I gag a little when he starts to explode into my mouth, but I don’t
pull away until the last kick of his orgasm has ended. As soon as he finishes,
I feel his hands under my arms. Before I get a chance to stand up on my own, he
pulls me up and sits me on the desk in front of him. “Lean back and put your
heels on the arms of the chair.”
This is so hot.
Julian pulls my skirt up so it’s around my waist, and when I look up at him,
his eyes are black with lust as he admires my naked body. He pulls his chair
closer to the desk and gets right in between my legs. I put my heels on the
arms of the chair just like he asked me to and bend my knees. His face is at an
even level with my crotch and I feel his warm breath blowing on my sensitive
flesh.
I try to scoot
forward to initiate real contact and I hear Julian chuckle. “So impatient, sexy
girl. I’m right here.” With those words,
Julian wraps his arms under and around my thighs, pulls me as close as he can
without pulling my ass off the desk, and launches the most intense assault on
my sex, licking and sucking on my throbbing clit, driving me crazy with his
supremely talented tongue and mouth. I find myself trying to grasp onto
something to hold onto and when I can’t find anything, I reach back over my
head and grab onto the edge of the desk. I feel like I need to ground myself as
he takes me somewhere otherworldly. It’s that fucking good. When Julian slides
his tongue inside of me and flicks my clit softly on the way out, I take my
turn and explode into his mouth. I literally feel the rush of wetness and when
I hear Julian’s moan, I know he felt it too.
I need to lie still
for a moment and get my breathing under control, but Julian has other plans. He
puts his hands on my waist and pulls me off of the desk and onto his lap. He’s
hard again and glides into me easily. He lifts me up and down as I ride him,
and each time I slide down his length, the pressure on my clit sends a
shockwave of sexual energy throughout my whole body. The orgasm I just had left
me very sensitive and it’s almost unbearable.
We’re staring at
each other with the same intense focus we get when we’re completely connected,
and I see so much in his eyes. Right now he’s looking at me like I’m his world
and I want to hear him say it. I want him to tell me once again that I’m all he
wants and all he needs. I also want him to know he’s all I want and need too.
“You’re mine,
Julian. All mine.” It’s more a statement than a question, but he answers.
“I am yours, just
yours, and you’re all mine, baby.”
My whole core begins
to contract as my third orgasm of the night starts to rush through my body. At
the same time, I feel every muscle in Julian’s body tighten and tense as he
releases himself into me. We cum together and cling to each other as we give
ourselves over to the pleasure.

Have you ever woken up one day and said, “Today’s the day I’m going to do (insert thing here)?” Well, I did, and the result is my first novel, Stay. I always thought of myself as a decent writer, and then a trip down memory lane through my ninth grade book of poetry confirmed it. I realize that I have always had a romantic side and a way with words. With support from my husband and kids (and an unspoken agreement to leave me alone for a few hours every night), I embarked on this incredible writing journey.
I’m originally from sunny Southern California and spent my summers in South Florida. I attended college at FSU and received my Masters in New Mexico. I finally settled in the Washington, DC area. My happy place has always been anywhere near the water.
When I’m not writing, I help run a business with my husband, watch an inordinate amount of sports (my kids play something 365 days a year), indulge my competitive spirit on the tennis court, and spend time with my awesome family and friends.
I am an avid reader, but find my characters feel neglected when I hang out with other author’s characters for too long. When I do read, historical fiction is my favorite genre. I love traveling and experiencing different cultures, places, and times.
I feel so blessed that my love of books inspired me to finally do something that I forgot I had always dreamed about doing.
My someday has arrived!
