Dirk Savage never fails to acquire
what he wants until he encounters Stormee Waters and a backwash of trouble...
Stormee Waters knows
about hard times. Needing to care for her aging grandmother and teenage
brother, she moves to Houston, Texas and takes a writing job for a popular
magazine. Her first assignment is to interview a successful business man for a
series of articles entitled, Make My Man Texas-Sized. Her target, Dirk Savage,
appears to have the right criteria. He's adventurous with the air of a
conqueror. Admired by his peers and coveted by beauty queens and debutantes,
he's just the type of man that Stormee needs to make her first article sizzle
and sell. But can she handle the heat when she catches his attention?
Dirk Savage is
used to acquiring what he wants, except in the illusive quest for the one woman
who can fill his heart. The shock of discovering her in the naive young woman
assigned to interview him sets his jaded emotions on high alert. Can he
convince her that his pursuit is genuine?
“How old are you?” His tone possessed a clipped edge of
exasperation.
What does my age
matter? Mortified, she fidgeted with the small purse she held in her lap.
“Twe—twenty-three.”
“You blush and fidget like a little girl.”
To her astonishment, and with more force than necessary,
he closed her door, circled the car, and
slipped back behind the wheel. A few minutes later, he parked
in front of the Stardust Restaurant. This time, when her door opened, he helped her out and led her toward
the restaurant’s entrance, stopping just short to maneuver her into a secluded niche in the building’s exterior.
With her back against the rock wall, Stormee muttered,
“What are you doing?”
“Time to make up for leaving me standing in your doorway.”
Shock kept her immobile, while the sweetest pleasure
she’d ever experienced sensitized her mouth
beyond bearing. With unhurried, soft kisses, he explored the
corners of her clenched lips. Mrs. Stanton’s warning echoed in her ears. “Remember to keep it professional, Stormee.
He’s not the kind of man you’re used to dealing with.” She pushed away the annoying memory as he
wet her bottom lip with his tongue.
