My Entangled Ignite book REUNITED IN DANGER takes place this time of year...fall in Baltimore.
Check out this excerpt featuring the reunited lovers, Keely and Logan.
Wishing she didn’t
look so good in a pair of worn jeans and an old red University of Maryland
sweatshirt, he slammed the door and set the lock.
“Keely.” He stood
by the door, afraid to trust himself around her. He had to keep her at a
distance. As teens, he’d been too wild for her, as adults, he couldn’t give her
what she wanted.
Anger grew in his
gut. What if she’d been attacked in his own neighborhood, on her way to see
him, and he’d been inside watching a movie? He faced her, using his best cop
tone. “Do you know how many muggings there were on the next block last month?”
He could have bought a house in a safer neighborhood, but he liked the fact
everyone knew he was a cop. His presence kept crime down on this block. But he’d
never expected women to come over at odd hours in the night.
She didn’t even
have the grace to look chastened as she took a swig of beer and shrugged. “So,
I see you still like Louis L’Amour movies.” She smiled and pointed at the
television screen with her beer bottle.
He forced himself
to take a slow, calming breath, counting to ten.

“Logan ?” A furrow formed between her brows and
she stood. Her long brown hair, damp from the rain, clung to the sides of her face.
A loose tendril fell across her cheek.
He wanted to step forward, brush it aside, grab her face in both
hands, and kiss the hell out of her.
“Why didn’t you
return my calls when I reached out to you a few years ago?”
So that was why she
was here. To finish the conversation they’d started earlier, before the street
outside her dad’s house had erupted in chaos.
She set her bottle
on the table and took a step closer to him.
His gaze dropped to
follow her pink-painted fingertips as she reached for the hem of her sweatshirt.
Surprise shot through him as she yanked it over her head, tossing it to the
sofa. She wore a thin beige halter and no bra. He stared at the pert outline of
her nipples, and his mouth went dry. Oh, holy shit.
With every ounce of
willpower he possessed, he forced his eyes higher and stared back at her. But
focusing on her eyes didn’t do him much good. Her blue eyes sparkled in the dim
lamp light, sending him signals he knew only too well.
She hadn’t come
over solely to get the answers to her questions. She’d come here to seduce him.
And God help him, he didn’t know if he had the strength to resist.
