Seeking sanctuary from a rainstorm inside a wine bar alone Billie
Collier’s haven quickly became her hell when of all the places in New

When another rain-soaked refugee swept inside dressed in a high dollar

humiliation.

need to save face and with her curious husband approaching can Billie
find her courage to trust and dare Sawyer when he offers her a chance to
get even.
DARE You K.L. Shandwick ©2019 Excerpt:
From the corner of my eye I saw Logan and cringed. The jolt of shock I
felt had been of quite a different kind to the ones that Sawyer had
stirred within me. Looking over Sawyer’s shoulder I watched as Logan
spoke to the redhead I instinctively knew was my
homewrecker.
As if it were gearing up for attack, my body immediately locked up as I
braced myself and felt pressure on my mouth as my lips automatically
pinched tightly together. Blood roared in my ears as my heart rate
spiked when he turned and headed directly toward
us.
Without turning around, Sawyer leaned over and slipped his hand into
mine. I stared down at it, still in shock and he gave it a small
squeeze. “I take it the man of the moment is behind us?” he muttered
intuitively in a barely-there voice.
Turning my focus on Sawyer, I remained practically frozen and nodded
slightly, too choked up from a sudden collective of warring emotions
rising within from my chest to my throat.
Previously, I’d only seen a picture of Poppy. It had been tucked into
Colby’s beach bag after a trip to Nantucket with them, shortly after his
eighth birthday.
This woman’s face wasn’t all that, but she was ten years younger and had
a body I could only dream of. My petite, boyish frame was nothing like
the taller, curvy, buxom redhead I’d seen clinging possessively onto my
cheating husband’s arm a moment before.
Staring confused by my thoughts into Sawyer’s eyes my feelings had fleetingly stretched from absurd to sublime.
What the hell am I doing?
The girl Logan had chosen over me was everything I wasn’t. In fact, she
was more suited to the young, gorgeous man staring intently back at me
than she was to Logan.
“Trust me?” Sawyer questioned in a whisper, his serious hazel eyed gaze
intense. I had little trust in any man, but without waiting for my
answer he leaned further across the table and intimately swept my long
damp hair behind my ear.
A small thrill shot down my back in stark contrast to the nerves
crippling me as Logan moved closer. Sawyer undaunted by his approach
swept the rest of my hair behind my shoulder with the back of his hand,
exposing my neck.
Another quick burst of adrenaline unexpectedly erupted within me and
instantly ignited feelings of desire I hadn’t realized I had missed
until that very moment.
Fighting to ignore how my body was reacting, I convinced myself Sawyer
was a brilliant actor. He genuinely looked as if he had wanted me and
the tender unhurried way he had touched me had made me feel desired.
My heart had felt as if it were about to explode in reaction because,
acting or not, it had been a very long time since any man had looked at
me the way Sawyer did. When I wanted to lean into his hand for a more
tangible connection I'd felt ridiculous, considering
the circumstances, but I had still wanted to do it all the same.
With a soft smile like he got a kick out of making a show of us, his
gaze rolled leisurely up my neck, traced across from my ear to my lips
and his tongue immediately licked his own. I felt his weighted gaze
crush in my chest until I could barely breathe and
it dawned on me Sawyer’s brazen intent was to actually kiss me.
