Take Excerpt: Meet Logan & Tate

“That’s your truck?”

“Yes.”

“It’s so…”

“So what?” Logan challenged as he pulled his keys from his pocket.

“Old?”

“Excuse me. I’ll have you know I was driving this baby all through college and she still runs like a dream.”

Tate watched as Logan walked over to run his hand over the scratched-up tailgate, and he was amazed that he even made that look sexy. Like he was stroking a lover.

“And it’s a she, huh?”

Now around at the passenger’s side, Logan opened the door and looked at him over the bed of the truck. “Yeah. Jealous?”

Laughing, Tate walked over to where Logan stood with a hand on the door and kissed him slowly on the mouth.

“I’m jealous of anything you stroke like that.”

“Get in the truck, Tate.”

“Or else?”

Logan stepped forward, crowding him back against the inside frame of the vehicle. “You’re not ready for the or else…”

TAKE – verb: to reach for and hold in one’s hands or get into one’s possession, power or control. 

Logan Mitchell is a man who’s always been more than happy to take what he wants. It’s a philosophy that’s proven lucrative in both his business and personal life, and never was it more apparent than the night he laid eyes on Tate Morrison. After pulling out all the stops and convincing the sexy bartender to give him a try—he’s hooked. 
Now, Logan finds himself in a predicament that demands more from him than a smart-ass answer and his innate ability to walk away when things get too deep. 
He has a choice to make, and it’ll force him to do something he’s never done before—take a chance. 

Tate Morrison knows all about taking a chance. He took the biggest one of his life the night he showed up at Logan’s apartment to explore his unexpected reaction to the man. 
Ever since then, he’s thought about little else. 
At first he was convinced his attraction was based solely on his body’s curiosity. But the more time he spends with the silver-tongued lawyer, the more Tate realizes that their physical chemistry is only the beginning. 
He’s starting to catch a glimpse of what life with Logan would be like, and it’s one full of excitement and satisfaction—a far cry from what he had in the past with his soon to be ex-wife. 

Each man will face their fears as they begin to understand the true meaning of give and take. Their feelings for one another will be tested, as will their very beliefs. But now that they’ve found love where they least expected it, will they be brave enough to reach out and take it?

Try – verb: to make an attempt or effort to do something or in this case…someone.

Sex. Logan Mitchell loves it, and ever since he realized his raw sexual appeal at a young age, he has had no problem using it to his advantage. Men and women alike fall into his bed—after all, Logan is not one to discriminate. He lives by one motto—if something interests you, why not just take a chance and try?

And he wants to try Tate Morrison.

Just coming out of a four-year marriage with an ex-wife from hell, a relationship is the last thing on Tate’s mind. He’s starting fresh and trying to get back on his feet with a new job at an upscale bar in downtown Chicago.

The only problem is, Tate has caught the unwavering and unwelcome attention of Mr. Logan Mitchell – a regular at the bar and a man who always gets what he wants.

Night after night Tate fends off the persistent advances of the undeniably charismatic man, but after an explosive moment in the bar, all bets are off as he finds his body stirring with a different desire than his mind.

As arrogance, stubbornness and sexual tension sizzles between the two, it threatens to change the very course of their lives.

Logan doesn’t do relationships. Tate doesn’t do men. But what would happen if they both just gave in and…tried?

"You ask everything of me, everything, and risk absolutely nothing in return."

We're honored to participate in Ella Frank's VEILED INNOCENCE's Blog Tour. I've read every single one of Ella Frank's books and she has never let me down. Her writing is superb, her storytelling always has you escaping into a highly erotic and thought-provoking world she masterfully creates, and she always, I repeat, always brings the HEAT. Ella's books are a "no panties required" experience. Yep, I said it and I stand by that statement, too. Veiled Innocence is no different. I am a sucker for forbidden romances, and, on top of that, this is a student & teacher love story with an unexpected, nail-biting and wicked twist. I won't give away anything else about the plot, but I will say, it is one of my favorite books of Ella's (Mason Langley still has my heart though). I had a huge book hangover from Addison & Greyson.

Today, read an excerpt, enjoy the teasers, and enter a HUGE Blog Tour giveaway to win a $150 Victoria Secret's GC, $50 worth of Amazon & Barnes & Nobles GC, Signed Paperbacks and ebooks! Good luck and enjoy!

"You're all I fucking see, Addison. When I close my eyes, when I open them, when I'm teaching. You're. There. All. The. Fucking. Time."
- Veiled Innocence by Ella Frank

Excerpt: Addison Lancaster’s POV
Copyright © 2014 by Ella Frank

I’d waited until he got out of the truck before approaching. I didn’t want his escape to be as easy as driving away. Standing in the small stone alcove of the gate, I knew it would be best to wait until he stepped away from the lit area. That way, any cars driving by wouldn’t be able to see us.

I wanted no excuses, no reason for him to worry, but I could see my silence had caused just as much concern as my presence would have. He turned to me, and I finally took a moment to really look at him the way I wanted to.

His hair was still pulled back but several pieces had now escaped and been pushed behind his ears. The darker stubble lining his square jaw made my fingers tingle with the need to touch.

“Oh, thank God,” he whispered, sounding relieved. I thought he would move away from me once he knew I was safe. Instead, he reached out and squeezed my shoulder.“I thought something had happened to you.”
 
I don’t think he realized that he was slowly massaging me.
 
“Jesus, don’t do that again. Okay?”
 
Taking another step closer, I agreed quietly. “Okay.”

He licked his lips and removed his hands, and I saw in his eyes the minute he decided it was time for some distance.

“What are you doing out here?” he asked. His casual black sports jacket shifted with the breeze, and all of a sudden I couldn’t remember why I was there. All I knew was that I wanted to touch him.

“Addison?”
His voice had the ability to make all of the noise inside my head cease.
 
Blinking up at him, I finally answered, “Yes?”

“What are you doing out here?”
Moving in so my jacket brushed the front of his, I finally reached to touch him, but he grabbed my wrist, holding it away.
 
“No,” he told me, and his voice was so stern I probably should have heeded the warning…but I didn’t.

“No?”

His head bent down, and when his face was a hairsbreadth from my own, he repeated, “No. Tell me why you’re here.” His breath was warm as it ghosted over my lips, and I couldn’t help but part my own, hoping by some miracle I could taste him on my tongue.

“Why are you here? That’s a better question, don’t you think?”
 
“I know better than this.”
 
I reached up needing to touch him, but he took that hand too, holding them both prisoner. Being held in place with nowhere to go elicited a hunger in me that I didn’t yet understand. “Know better than what?”

“Than to be here.”
 
“Then go,” I offered.
That was all it took. He spun me around, backed me up against the truck, and had my arms pinned by my head so fast I lost my breath.

Leaning in beside me until his mouth was by my ear, he rasped in an unsteady voice, “I can’t.”
I turned my head to face him and saw all of his turmoil, and finally, the full impact of his desire.

“Then don’t.”

“You’re going to be the death of me.”
Life is full of ironies, because with him, I’d never felt more alive.

Tick, tick, tock.

Time.

That’s all I have now.

A small room, a photograph, and time.

They want me to trust them and confess my sins.

They told me they wouldn't judge me—they lied.

I thought we could convince the world that this wasn't a crime.

We were wrong.

Time doesn't stand still.

The clock keeps ticking, the world is unconvinced, and now… Now he is gone.

HOT Edible Excerpt & Teaser (from Ella Frank's Website)


Teaser
“I don’t remember inviting you to touch me.” Cole stated in a voice that invited no argument, but like a fool she argued.“Well you actually invited me to suck your tongue, or have you already forgotten?”Holding her firmly against him, his hazel eyes heated at the reminder.“An invitation you refused as far as I am aware. So until I reissue the invite maybe you should keep your hands to yourself.


Excerpt
“Cole.” She sighed as she spread her fingers through his hair, massaging his scalp as he continued his sensual torment.

She could feel his other hand as it slid up her back and suddenly her bra was loose and free as he pulled it from her throwing it behind him.

Moving back a little, he reached up with both hands plumping her breasts up to him like a meal. Then slowly he lowered his mouth to the neglected tip and made sure to keep their eyes connected as he licked the tight hard flesh.

The dark, sexy glint in his eyes was just as effective as his fingers sliding between her thighs as she felt her panties grow damp from his seductive play.

“Your breasts are fucking perfect Rachel.” He told her as he sat back and pushed them together again. “I want to slide my cock between them.”

Rachel couldn’t help the small gasp that came from her mouth at the image of his thick, hot cock pushing between her breasts and brushing close by her lips with every thrust he would make.

Oh yes please, can we do that?

Although she said nothing, it must have been stamped across her face, because the way Cole’s talented lips stretched into a taut smirk she knew his next words were nothing short of a hot, sensual promise.

“You like that idea, I can tell.”


Meet Cole Madison and Rachel Langley!


Exquisite Series Book Summaries and Purchase Links

Exquisite

Her heart was guarded…

Tormented by self-imposed guilt, Dr. Lena O’Donnell has spent the last nine years in 
survival mode. Struggling through days that seem to blend together and battling 
her way through each horrifying night, she’s determined that this is what she 
deserves…

Until he tore down the walls…

Mason Langley’s life is  going exactly the way he planned it, until her. A confirmed bachelor and the successful owner of the hottest restaurant to hit Chicago, he never expects to be blindsided by an angry woman in a pair of scrubs. No matter how hard he tries, he can’t seem to shake the doctor, and he finds himself liking the way she makes him feel.

Almost over night Lena finds her world turned upside down by Mason and the sexual desire they discover together. Slowly, she lowers her guard and invites him inside but when tragedy strikes she begins to believe that sometimes it’s better to be alone and safe than to love and lose.

Entice

What if everything you think you want isn't what you actually need...

Dr. Shelly Monroe is a woman who doesn't shy away from going after what she wants, but lately good sex has been hard to find. Shelly's become increasingly frustrated with the men she's been dating and the men she believes are the right choice.

Joshua Daniels is certainly not even close to the right choice. In fact he is exactly the wrong choice. For one thing, he's Mason Langley's best friend and best man. Second he's too much of a risky complication for Shelly to even consider.

Then why can't she stop thinking about how delicious he looked that first night she met him at 
Exquisite? Why is it so imperative to keep her lusty desire for a man that doesn’t meet her preconceived mold hidden from Lena and Mason, her trusted friends? 

It seems unreasonable that being with a man completely wrong in theory could somehow feel so right. Then why is it the more she sees him the more enticing he becomes?

Edible

Edible, delicious, delectable.

Three words Rachel Langley is more than familiar with in her line of work. After all, she spends her afternoons and evenings creating desserts so divine your mouth will water and your taste buds will tingle.
They aren't however, the words she would ever have expected to think of when she locks eyes with a certain lawyer she knows only as, Cole.
With each encounter the infuriatingly persistent man becomes more impossible to resist and edible, is the exact word that comes to mind.

Crave, demand, covet.

Cole Madison knows exactly what he wants and Rachel Langley is it.
From the moment he spotted her at Whipped, he knew he wanted to grab hold and take a bite.
However, the woman has enigmatic moves, avoiding him at every turn.

Not for much longer.

Rachel's time is up and as far as Cole is concerned he's waited too long for a taste of what he desires and nothing, including the woman herself, will stop him from consuming what he hungers for.

The only question left is, who will take the first bite?
