Blurb
Tired of eating sand and dodging bullets, Marine Captain Mack
Magnus is ready to relax and enjoy his brother’s Dublin wedding. If that
involves a few pints in a quaint Irish pub and getting laid by a pretty Irish
lass, all the better.
Instead he winds up getting ordered around by the cousin of the
bride. Fed up with her mouthy attitude, he kisses her to shut her up. Now he
has a new mission: get into the sexy redhead’s panties.
Busy international model Deirdre Darcy knows the six-foot-four
Marine’s type: hit-and-run sex and off to the next port. Fall into bed with an
arrogant bastard like Mack? No thanks. When she stumbles upon a couple of Irish
gypsies leaving a murder scene, she must go into hiding or become their next
victim.
His protective instincts kicking into high gear, Mack whisks
Deirdre away to a small town where it’s easier to keep her safe. Except there’s
no escape from their growing attraction—or from the one thing neither of them
thought they wanted. Love.
Warning: Battle-hardened, ready-to-cut-loose Marine teams up
with a stunning Irish lass who thinks she can handle him. You’ll need the luck
of the Irish to hang onto your seat for this sexy, suspenseful race across the
Emerald Isle.
Excerpt
Lead in: Mack and Deirdre at his
brother's combined bachelor/bachelorette party.
“You throw a good party,” he
said, his words rumbling in his chest. “My brothers have never been to Ireland so this is
a treat.”
Deirdre tipped her chin up.
“Surely your military travels have taken you to foreign countries?”
“Yes, but not where we were truly
welcome. It’s nice for a change not to have to look where you step or watch behind
you for your enemy.”
“I can’t imagine what it is like
to be in a war zone.”
“Exhilarating and scary at the
same time.” He touched a finger beneath her chin. “I’m glad you ladies came out. I was
considering going back to my room.”
“And miss all this?” She smiled
up at him. “It would be a shame to disappoint your brother on the eve of his
weddin’.”
“He doesn't see anyone
else but his bride-to-be.”
Deirdre’s glance shifted to Wyatt
and Fiona, standing in the middle of the floor, barely moving to the beat of the music.
“They make a lovely couple.”
“They’ve only known each other
for three months. Is that long enough to know whether you’re really in love?”
“Some say you know in an instant.
Others say their love grew over time.” Deirdre envied Wyatt and Fiona. She had always
wondered what it would be like to be in love with a man. Her gaze rose to meet Mack’s. “Do
you believe in love at first sight?”
Mack stared down at her for a
long moment.
The fire in his eyes made her
blood rush through her veins and her core tighten.
“I don’t know about love at first
sight. You captured my attention from the moment you first stepped through the door of
the terminal.”
“I did?”
“Yes. But then I pegged you as an
ice queen, dressed in white, hiding behind a scarf and sunglasses, your body ramrod
straight.”
Deirdre stiffened.
Mack laughed. “Just like that.”
When she tried to step out of his arms, he tightened them around her. “Then I kissed
you and I realized how deceiving looks can be. Beneath the outer shell was a fiery,
passionate women.” His words ended in a whisper, his head lowering, his mouth sweeping down to claim
hers.
As though caught in a time warp,
Deirdre couldn’t move. Nor did she want to. Since he’d kissed her in the airport,
she’d thought of little else. She lifted her face to his and met him, her mouth opening to accept
his tongue, her own coming out to sweep across his. It was as if the world stopped
turning and time stood still. Even the music ceased to beat against her ears.
