Hello everyone, your eyes are not deceiving you, do not
worry.
Raven and I have swapped blogs today, as we are both
celebrating the release of new books. Mine is book two in The Giovanni Clan
series, Too Cold To Love.
Blurb:
Marco Giovanni has shut off his emotions, following a messy divorce. His small daughter and his chain of bakeries are all he needs in his life. The string of nannies are an unfortunate necessity he could well do without. So why does his body have to remember its needs now with the latest and most unsuitable nanny ever?
Elise has always been the responsible one, so when she receives yet another SOS phone call from her wayward twin, she does the only thing she can do, she steps into her shoes. Having to go back to nannying is hard enough, the unexpected attraction to her arrogant employer impossible to deal with. Especially when she is forced to agree to a marriage of his convenience to pay off the debt her twin accrued.
In a marriage based on blackmail can passion turn into love, or will secrets and lies destroy all?

I have enlisted the help of Stella Giovanni, formidable head
of the family, to tell you a little more. So without further ado, I give you

Have you ever been in a position where you know two people
are just perfect for each other, yet they are too pigheaded to see it? Well, as
head of the Giovanni clan I see that all too often. Take my nephew Marco and
his new wife Elise. Now, you'd think that stubborn man would just take the chance
at happiness and be done with it. Oh no, not Marco.
Stubborn, just like my late husband used to be. Marco does
remind me of him, as I frequently tell Elise. Though even Alessandro wasn't
quite as ruthless. Blackmailing the poor girl into marriage wasn't the smartest
move really, even if he did need a mamma for Mimi. And yes, I may have played
my part to make sure Elise said yes. But that nephew of mine needed to let his
hair down, and any fool could see that he wanted Elise.
As you'd expect of me after the hand I played with Alex and
Kitty, I made sure Marco and Elise had surprises for each other on their
wedding night.
*smiles*
Well, fruit is not just for eating, and handcuffs can make
life very interesting. So, imagine my surprise when they come back from
honeymoon not talking to each other. Short of banging their heads together,
which is always an option, I came up with the next best thing.
I locked them in a room and refused to let them out until
they'd talked. Of course I was hoping that they would do more than talking…
Sex solves most things after all.
I leave you with a little excerpt, and Doris tells me I have
to mention her GIVEAWAY.
If you'd like to see for yourself how Marco and Elise
resolve their problems, then leave a comment. Doris will give away a copy of
Too Cold To Love to one random commenter.
Excerpt:
Marco's knowing gaze met hers in the
bathroom mirror, and the heat she saw in his eyes started a slow answering fire
deep within her. Awareness sparked between them.
The towel slowly slipped from her
fingers. The ice hit the tiled floor with a thud and broke the spell. She
almost ran into the other room and frantically tried the other door.
"I have it on good authority
that they are fire doors, my lovely, so I'd give up now. I like your shoulders
just the way they are, cara mia."
Marco leant against the door frame
propped up by his good shoulder, his arms crossed over his chest, a slow smile
on his lips. He checked the lock on the bathroom door.
"And I'm pleased to note there
isn't a lock on here, lest you decide to go hiding in another bathroom. I seem
to recall you were rather fond of that on our honeymoon."
Elise winced, followed by a vivid
blush as she remembered their wedding night.
Marco simply smiled. He slowly
advanced towards her, and Elise backed away until she bumped into the wall. He
reminded her of a predator stalking his prey.
"Marco, we need to talk."
One last long stride brought him so
close his thighs touched hers, and he put one hand either side of her
head. His big body crowded her against
the wall, and his sinful mouth hovered over hers.
"So talk, cara mia. I'm
all yours."
His hot breath fanned across her
face, and Elise closed her eyes. She bit back a moan when he kissed her nose
and rained butterfly kisses along her jaw line. He suckled gently on just the
right spot on her neck to make her knees turn to jelly.
"Marco…please…stop…"
Somehow she found the strength to
put her shaking hands on his chest, only to meet hot, hard, male flesh. This
time she couldn't stop the very feminine moan escaping. Was that needy sound
really her?
Apparently so, judging by Marco's
low groan in her ear. He moved his hand to cup her breast, the nipple thrusting
shamelessly into his caress.
"You don't sound as though you
want me to stop, cara mia. In fact, I would hazard a guess that you're
wet enough for me to fuck you right here."
The crude words should have shocked
Elise, but instead she whimpered in response to his words. He ground his hips
suggestively into hers until the full force of his erection rested against her
pussy. Heat flooded between her thighs, and she pulled his head down for kiss.
"You're talking too much,
Tarzan."
She caught a quick glimpse of
triumph in his glittering eyes before his mouth claimed hers. His tongue
tangled with hers, and they both groaned. One of his hands fisted in her hair,
and the other lifted her skirt. He cupped her mound and murmured his approval.
"You're so fucking wet for
me."
He bunched the sodden material of
her underwear in his hand and pulled. The move brought delicious pressure to
her clit, and Elise panted in excitement. Cool air hit her slick folds when the
material gave way with an audible rip. His large hand replaced the fabric, and
her pussy clamped down on the fingers he thrust into her channel. His teeth
nipped her neck, nudging her arousal up another notch, and he kicked her feet
apart to spread her wider. She clung to his shoulders, rubbing her breasts
against his chest, and he swore. He thrust two more fingers into her hungry
cunt, and she lifted her leg to give him better access. He withdrew his
fingers, and Elise tensed when he inserted one slick digit into her anus.
"Relax, pasticcino."
His eyes sought hers, and he smiled.
He kissed her, and Elise relaxed into the strange sensation. When he inserted
another finger into her tight hole, she gasped into his mouth. He thrust slowly
in and out of her, and Elise pulled him closer to her still, as her hips moved
of their own accord. Unused nerve endings sprang to life, and darts of pleasure
skittered to her clitoris. Her breath came in short gaps, as her arousal built.
"That's my girl. I knew you'd
like this." Marco's strained voice in her ear was the sexiest sound she'd
ever heard. She pushed down on his fingers, seeking more, and moaned her disappointment
when he withdrew them slowly. He grabbed her buttocks and ground her aching
clit into his still covered cock. He thrust into her, and the friction on her
throbbing bud proved too much for Elise.
"Please, Marco."
"What, cara mia?"
Marco pulled away, and she groaned.
"What do you want, my
wife?"
The heat in his ever darkening gaze
stoked her arousal to fever pitch, and she impatiently tugged at his trousers.
"I want you in me, now,
Marco."
His eyes darkened further at her
whispered plea, and she breathed a sigh of relief when his hands helped her
free his cock. It sprung out of its confines up to his taut stomach, and Elise
licked her lips in anticipation. She cupped his balls, and it was Marco's turn
to groan.
"Jesus, woman, you're killing
me."
He pushed her hands away, and Elise
arched into his palms, when he pulled down her tank top and exposed her
breasts. He kneaded each aching globe, before he pushed them together and laved
the nipples in turn. Every suckle sent shards of pure pleasure down towards
Elise's clit where delicious anticipation built in waves. She moaned her
protest when Marco released the glistening buds and kissed his way back up to
her collarbone. She could feel his strained smile before she saw it.
"Wrap your legs around me. I
need to get inside you right now."
