ABOUT IGNITED
He promised to take me
as far as I could go—and I wanted to go to the edge.
My whole life has been a cover, a con, a lie. I was born into the grift, raised on the thrill of playing someone I’m not. As a rule, I never let anyone get too close—until Cole August makes it impossible for me to stay away.
Cole is tough, sexy, and intensely loyal, yet his secrets are dark and his scars run deep. Not many women can handle his past, or the truth behind his fierce demands. But something about him beckons me—and our desire is a game I must play.
I know he’s dangerous, that even his touch is trouble, but what is passion without a little risk?

“Kat.”
“Hard
limit? That’s bullshit. Do not tell me what I do and do not want and what I can
and cannot have. I’m a grown woman, damn you. I know what I want, what I need.
But you’re so goddamned hardheaded.”
I
was stalking toward him now, and I was supremely pissed off. So was he. I could
see the fire in his eyes. Cole wasn’t defied frequently. I wasn’t sure he quite
knew what to do with me.
“How
do I convince you that you don’t scare me? This?” I grabbed my shirt by the hem
and ripped it up over my head. I tossed it aside. “This?” The bra went next,
and as soon as I’d dropped it on the floor I grabbed his hand and tugged so
that I was standing right there—right in front of him.
Before
he could think or protest, I cupped his hands on my breasts, and as he sucked
in air through his teeth, I let go so I could reach down and unbutton my
shorts. I tugged the zipper down, shimmied out of the damn things, and then
hooked my thumbs in the band of my tiny lace thong.
“No,”
Cole said, closing one of his hands over mine.
I
aimed a look of pure defiance right back at him, then kept right on going.
He
grabbed my hand, then pulled me hard toward him so that I slammed against his
chest. I gasped, then found myself breathing hard into the small indentation at
the base of his throat.
“I’ll
do it.” His mouth was at my ear, and he growled out the words in time with his
action so that I heard the firm, no-nonsense tone of his voice playing melody
to the brutal ripping of material as he tore the lace right off my body, rendering
me completely naked, desperately hot, and utterly open for him.
“Cole!”
I cried out, but he silenced me with his mouth firm over mine. But this was no
sensual kiss. It was brutal, demanding. Hot.
