Author: K.C. Lynn
Genre: NA Contemporary Romance
Expected Release Date: May 1, 2014

Synopsis

“If you could go back and change one moment in your life what would it be?” I expect him to say the week the three of them were held prisoner, but what he says next is something that I will remember for the rest of my life.

“It would be to find you sooner, because I would have never let anyone hurt you.”

And that was the moment I gave Sawyer Evans my whole heart.

***

At 17 years old Grace Morgan had managed to live through what would be the worst day of her life. One would think this is where her torment ended, but then she was sent to live with him- the devil himself.

Three years later she finds herself in the beautiful, small town of Sunset Bay, South Carolina - a perfect place to start her life over. This is where she meets the best friends she will ever have, and one cocky, sexy, arrogant ex-Navy Seal whose heart turns out to be bigger than his ego. Right when things start looking up the worst day of her life comes back with a vengeance; ruining the peace she had just found.

Sawyer Evans is a strong, sexy, confident ex-Navy Seal who loves women just as much as they love him. His philosophy is: the more the merrier, with no strings attached. But all that changes the day he rolls into Sunset Bay, where he meets a sweet, sexy blonde with sad amber eyes, who smells like cupcakes and bakes the most delicious pies. The only girl who isn’t affected by his good looks and charm...or so he thinks. 

But Sawyer is a fighter who is used to getting what he wants, and he wants Grace. Along the way of making that happen, he finds out she holds secrets, and a pain much deeper than he thought possible- and he has known pain like no other man has. 

A year ago he made a life-altering decision that not only bought him a week in hell with men he considers his brothers, but also ended his career. It was a decision he will never regret, no matter the scars he bares, physically or emotionally. He refused to let that moment in his life break him or define him.

So when Grace’s life is threatened, he will make another decision, one to not only protect her, but also mend her broken heart.

Excerpt
Hunter’s fingers worked like an expert, slowly pulling off the wedding dress to reveal a very big surprise just for his eyes.
You would've thought I had given him the best Christmas present in the world, as he looked me over from head to toe, admiring the new lingerie that I had gotten for my wedding night. My bra came off with a flourish, and then he leaned down onto his hands and knees, before driving his teeth into the material of my panties.
Growling, he ripped my panties down my legs, until I was standing in front of him in nothing but my birthday suit. His manly hands moved up my legs, slowly making his way to my most treasured of areas. His hot breath blew across my pussy, causing my clit to wake up from its slumber and come out to see what was going on.
“Oh god, Hunter, I have been anticipating this for as long as we have known each other… mmm.” His tongue made contact with my nether lips, slowly moving back and forth from the bottom to the top, until he was peeling those folds open. “Ohhh.”
I didn't want to miss a single moment of this, so I endeavored to keep my eyes open through the entire thing. Looking up at me, he smiled, as he performed an oral delight on my body that took my breath away. I loved watching him work his tongue into my body.
I reached for his head and guided him between my legs.
Hunter was ravenous for my body and had stirred up a wonderful sensation that was coursing through me within minutes “Ahhh.” Being a conservative type, I thought for sure that I was going to be meek and mild in the bedroom, but it was turning out that he was able to turn me into an animal.
Forcing my hand on top of his short light-brown hair, I pushed his face into my pussy, holding him there as I rammed into his mouth and all over his face. Bucking several times, I finally let go of his head, falling back on the bed with a satisfied expression etched on my face.
“If you think that was something, wait till you see what I have for you for a wedding gift.” Was talking about the profound bulge in his pants? 
No, not Hunter. I didn’t think that’s what he was getting at. I really didn't have time to contemplate anything more. I watched him with rapt attention as he dropped his pants and underwear to my gaze.
I gasped, and then reached out with both hands to curl my fingers around his length. Hunter made a sigh of contentment. “I have been waiting forever, Violet, and I don't think I can wait any longer.”
Sticking out my tongue, I lathed the shaft, letting every single inch slide in and out of my mouth effortlessly. Hunter was everything that I wanted, and I wanted to give him something special just for him.
I could feel his wedding night excitement was pushing him over the edge. He was ready to explode in my mouth.  He pushed me away before he went over the edge.
“Not yet, my love, I don’t want to end this too soon.”
 The look on his face told me exactly what he was going to do next, and I giggled like a schoolgirl as he joined me on the bed. Taking my legs in his hands, he licked and sucked on each of my toes, causing my pussy to moisten even more.
His cock was so near my pussy that I was sure he could feel the heat emanating from inside me.
I wanted him. My insides throbbed, wanting to be filled and taken.
I laid flat on my back and stared up at Hunter. His placed his big muscular arms on either side of my head. His hard body glistened in the soft lighting of the room. His face loomed above me, looking masculine and gorgeous, like it was carved as the perfect male specimen out of limestone.
He rocked his hips forward just a little and teased my opening with the head of his cock. He stretched me little by little, invading me little by little.
Pressing forward, I felt his elongated member force through my lips, and he continued to move against me until he was balls deep. We were joined as one, and we began to give that mattress a very hard and deep workout, making the bed crash against the wall over and over again.
“My god, Violet, had I known what a wild one you were, we would've been doing this long before now.”
I felt the same way, as I wrapped my legs around his waist to get him in as deep as possible. “Fuck me, Hunter, show you how you feel about me.”
Using his legs for leverage, he was really getting into my body, and our skin was covered in a fine sheen of sex sweat. “I love how your body fits like a glove with mine.”
We were looking at each other, as if our souls were joined for all time, and I began to move my body against him, matching each stroke that came my way. The shaft of his cock was rubbing up against my clit, and before long I was lost in the throes of passion, throwing my hair back and forth across the pillows during my orgasm.
The surprising thing for me was that he didn't join me and continued to hammer his cock deep within my depths. When he pulled out, I could see a combination of his sauce and my juices coating his shaft, before he flipped me over onto my hands and knees and came after me from behind. He put his hands on my shoulders for support, our bodies lost in the moment, and I could feel his release on the horizon.
“Almost there…. almost there.”
At the exact same time, my body went out of control, and I began to strangle and milk him of everything that he had. “Ahhh.” Our screams of ecstasy echoed off the walls, and then he slumped forward over my back, licking the back of my neck, and whispering sweet nothings into my ear.
We both collapsed on the bed and stared at the ceiling fan swirling above us. The breeze from the fan made my nipples perk up.
“I bought a house,” he said randomly.

Synopsis

I was thrilled when I was offered a graduate teaching position at the prestigious Tennerson Girls Academy. At twenty-three, this would be my first ‘real’ teaching assignment. Working at the elite boarding school, home to the daughters of some of the wealthiest people in the world, was a great opportunity that I would’ve been stupid to pass up.

One week into my new job, and I suddenly had no idea why I chose high school…I was a seventeen year old boy once, I knew how teenage girls behaved.

You can’t even imagine the hell of trying to teach thirty, hormonal driven seventeen year olds who have been cooped up, away from any male contact.

I could handle the whispers every time I entered the room. I could even handle the obvious attempts at gaining my attention. What I couldn’t handle was her…

***

Rich bitches and way too many rules. Was it any wonder that I hated school?

Add to that the lack of male contact, and I was going insane. Like literally. I wasn’t used to this. A year ago I was normal. I had a boyfriend, friends and a loving family. There is nothing normal about me anymore, and nobody here lets me forget that.

My name is Wrenn, and I’m only here because my aunt took me in after what happened, but my aunt also happens to be the headmistress of this academy…Can you see my problem?

I’m hated for my lack of money, and I’m hated for who my Aunt is.

Then he arrived. Dalton Reed. My new history teacher.

Slowly, he helped me see that even in the worst situations, there is always hope.

Excerpt

I laughed. “Trust me, they do. I’m the niece of the headmistress and I don’t come from a family of big money. Add to that all the ‘special’ attention I used to get from teachers who were just trying to look out for me, and what’s to not like?” I joked. I shrugged. “Not that I care. With the exception of Kass, I’d prefer not to know any of my peers. I focus on my schoolwork and grades. That’s it. Two more months and I’m free. Less than two months. Six weeks. Thank God for extra credit and early graduation.”
He was silent for a moment. “Anyone who chooses not to get to know you is missing out. Not you. You’re unlike anyone I’ve met.” He looked up and met my gaze; those incredible blue eyes were staring right into my soul. It gave me goose bumps. This guy made me feel like I wanted to live. Really live, not just go through the motions of day to day life.

My best friend was dying and I was in love with his girl.

Andy and I had been best friends since we were eight-years old.
Watching him slowly fade away, ever closer to his final breath, made
me so incredibly angry. I knew there was nothing I could do to change it--I had given in to despair, but Andy had not. He had one last hand to play.

He wasn't going to simply sit back and wait for Death to claim him--not Andy. He was going to live life until he couldn't hold his eyes open any longer.

Andy didn't want to die in some sterile hospital and asked me to take him and Emily to the beach. It would be our last road trip together.

Emily. Emily was a problem for me.

I harbored a secret that would have torn our friendship apart. I was in love with Andy's girl, and had been since she'd walked into our sixth grade class, so many years ago.

So what kind of person am I? My best friend is dying, and it's
awful--but my heart still aches for his girl. I hate myself for
thinking beyond Andy's death and whether there could ever be a future for Emily and I, but I can't help it.

I'm in love with her.
