Enchanter by Kristy Centeno
Leah Parker is furious when she
finds out she’s been paired up for a class project with deadly silent, tough as
nails, and incredibly intimidating Brandon Morris. Though she’s known him for
years, Leah has made it a priority to stay away from him for a reason. As they
are forced to spend time together however, Leah comes to find that there is
more to Brandon than what meets the eye.
When
a series of unexpected events forces Brandon to reveal his true identity, Leah
suddenly finds herself fighting to come to terms with who he is and with the
fact that by fulfilling his destiny she will come to lose the only guy she’s
ever loved. As a family secret is unveiled and old threats possess new risks,
they both have to find the strength to do what is expected of them. Even if
that means losing each other in the process.
Love brought them together. His bloodline threatens to pull them
apart. Will Brandon choose duty over love? Or will other forces far beyond
their control separate them first?
Excerpt:
Brandon tore his lips away from mine so he could explore my neck,
nipping and nibbling as he traveled the length of it. Deliberately, gently,
passionately, he kissed a path down my skin and paused only when he reached my
naked shoulder. “So soft,” he murmured, the hoarseness of his voice forcing my
body to break out in goose bumps.
My fingers intertwined in his hair, forcing the long locks out of
the black bow keeping it neatly tied at the nape of his neck. As soon as it
came loose, his dark hair cascaded around his face like a curtain, making him
look like some exotic creature of the night.
“Brandon…” I glanced up at his pale blue eyes, admiring the beauty
of them. “Kiss me… please.”
He immediately obliged, devouring my lips with so much intensity
it caused my knees to wobble. Heat, fast and powerful, spread through my body
in rapid sequences as our tongues playfully toyed with each other and our
bodies touched. I moaned when the feel of his strong, hard, and warm body
pressed against mine. I did enjoy his masculinity and how wonderful it felt to
have his hands massaging my back.
Feeling the need to explore, I untangled my fingers from his long
mane and slowly allowed my hands to glide down his neck, and to his upper torso
where they paused just over his pectorals. The tips of my fingers slowly
slithered over his hard-as-steel chest and there they lingered for a while,
exploring, touching, and feeling. Ever so slightly, they lowered to his abs,
which despite the jacket and white shirt, I detected to be just as defined as
the rest of him.
My greedy fingers worked their magic over Brandon, who immediately
groaned and pulled away from me. His breath was ragged, his eyes filled with
lust, his body language tense.
“Leah… I…”
A movement over his left shoulder caught my attention and I no
longer focused on him or on what he was saying.
“Brandon, I don’t think we’re alone anymore,” I murmured as
another flash of whiteness rushed from one side to the other, some ten to
fifteen feet from us. It was too dark for me to determine who it was, but I was
certain of one thing: we were being watched.
