.Faith made us an awesome dinner while Stella decorated with candles and flowers.I’ve changed into one of my actual jerseys, which I left unbuttoned, and my boxer briefs.I’m milking the sexy jock vibe for all it’s worth.I have no shame.I want to be attacked.I hear her key in the door and get in position.I’m leaning against the dining room door, looking like it’s just a natural thing for me to welcome her home every night.It will be from now on, but she’s not expecting it tonight.She drops her keys and lets her purse slide from her arm as she takes me in.“Hi honey, I’m home.”“Hell yeah, you are.”“Did you miss me?”“Maybe.”“Just maybe? I can work with that.Let’s have dinner.”“What if I want you for dinner?” she asks as she walks up to me and pushes open the jersey with one hand while sliding her other one inside my briefs.“Faith cooked and Stella decorated.I wouldn’t want them to have wasted their time,” I tell her as I involuntarily start to thrust into her hand.She takes her hands off of me and walks into the dining room.“Okay let’s eat.” Damn.Maybe she didn’t miss me.I’m surprised even more when she takes a seat next to me instead of across the table.She lifts an asparagus spear off the plate in front of her and takes a bite.Then she drops it down the front of her dress.“Oops.Can you get that for me, King?”Oh yeah.She missed me, and now we’re going to play.I retrieve it, along with everything else she accidentally drops down her top, or between her legs.I finally throw her onto the table, and eat her for dinner.It’s good to be home.AcknowledgementsAs always, I need to thank my girls first.Dominique and Gabi, you are the best daughters a mother could have, and I love you both more than words.A big shout out and thank you to Alison Packard, who let me borrow her fictional baseball team and players for Miles.If you haven’t read her books, you should-I LOVE them and her!Thanks to Tera Lynn Childs for making me finish book one when I just wanted to stop and read it.If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have sent any of the books into the world.Your friendship means more to me than anything, and your dedication inspires me every day.To all my friends in the Books…We Love Books book club, I love you all.Thanks for being such great friends.Lots of people helped me with all the books.Authors, friends, readers, and co-workers have supported me through every step of my journey.I’ve thanked you all in one book or another.I just want you to know that I appreciate everything you’ve done to support me.I can never thank Helen Williams enough for my book covers.We are so in synch (although she likes pastels, and I like bold colors).I want to write more books just to have her make me more covers!Jesse Gordon has formatted all the books in the series, and I can’t say enough good things about him.Thank you for everything.This may be the last official book in The Griffin Brothers series (or not), but you’ll see them all in Corrigan & Co.You’ve met some of the girls already in this book, and I can’t wait for you to see them in action!Thanks again to the readers.I hope you’ll keep reaching out to my on Facebook, Goodreads, and email.I love to hear from you!Turn the page for a peek at Fielding Her Secret, the first book in the Corrigan & Co.series.It will be released on January 12, 2015.There will be ten books total in the series which combines Charlie’s Angels with a secret society of women.Watch for the Griffins to pop up from time to time!Publicly, The Corrigan & Co.Foundation has been supporting women for years.Secretly, five powerful women led by Jane Corrigan have recruited ten agents, sending them to rescue women and children in need, and take down those who exploit the weak.This secret society of women all have unique skills they’ve brought to the foundation.Additionally, they’ve all had training in weapons, etiquette, martial arts, technology and languages.Helping out friends and family of their five mentors from time to time is something they were told to expect.What they didn’t plan for is falling in love.Chapter 1AinsleyI just got called into the conference room.I know what this means—I’m being assigned to a mission.I’ve done a few over the past four years, but not as many as the other women.My expertise is computers, so I usually just support everyone else while working in my office downstairs, and overseeing my team.I’m not girly or glamorous at all, which limits what I can do on the outside.As I head upstairs in the elevator, I think about how I ended up here at Corrigan & Company.I was a tomboy growing up [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
