      “Here’s what I want you to do,”

      Devlin said. “When they come back, you say you know nothing. Be convincing. Very convincing.”

      Mackenzie spoke tentatively. “What if I don’t want to—”

      He was fast. Before she could blink, Devlin was standing in front of her, dragging her close against his chest. The move was supposed to be intimidating—and it was—but the great threat was the way he made her feel.

      Alive. Scared, but so incredibly alive.

      “You’ll do it,” he said grittily.

      “Or what?”

      Devlin’s lips came down on hers, knocking out every objection with one striking blow. His mouth was hot and his tongue was wicked. The shock was staggering. Mackenzie hadn’t known that a kiss could be so savage and still turn her molten with desire.

      He wrenched his mouth away.

      Mackenzie was paralyzed, swaying on her frozen feet. “Or what?” was all she could think to say.

      “Or I’ll never kiss you like that again.”

      Dear Reader,

      I sum up this book in five words: Bad Boy Goes Willie Wonka.

      Does a tough-guy hero like Devlin Brandt have the same sexy charisma if he’s wearing rather outlandish seventies garb instead of a leather jacket and jeans? What if he’s hiding out from the bad guys by working behind the counter at a penny-candy store? In Sinfully Sweet, Mackenzie, the youngest Bliss sister, discovers that her old high-school crush on Devlin is still going strong. And she just might have a few surprises of her own up her sleeve…or in her candy dish!

      If you enjoyed Sabrina Bliss’s story in The Chocoloate Seduction (Temptation #925), I think you’re ready for another wild ride into the world of SEX & CANDY. Indulge!

      Prologue

      “I AM GOING TO DO IT,” Mackenzie Bliss said with all the bravado she could muster.

      Sabrina glanced at her with an easy nonchalance. “You don’t have to do it.”

      Everything comes easy to Sabrina, Mackenzie thought, taking in her sister’s sloppy appearance. In a denim skirt and a sleeveless ribbed T-shirt that showed her flat tummy, Sabrina still managed to look good. Whereas Mackenzie had groomed herself for an hour and felt like potatoes stuffed into a designer gunny-sack.

      “I’m not going to force you.” Sabrina squinted into the distance, avoiding her sister’s eyes.

      Mackenzie knew why. Sabrina was hoping that she’d fail first. If their bet was off, Sabrina would be free to pursue the gorgeous chocolate chef, Kit Rex.

      “Hmm,” Mackenzie said as if she were thinking about bailing. It was only to torture her sister, who was one year older but didn’t often act like it. “Ah—no. I’m definitely going through with this.”

      “All right, but then we have to go inside, don’t we?”

      They stood near the glass double doors of a glam Madison Avenue salon. It was the type of place Mackenzie used to walk by with a guilty speed, as if the stylists might be standing in the window, rating the bad haircuts and fashion faux pas of the rabble who couldn’t afford their services.

      “Hold on, hold on. I’m thinking about it.” Mackenzie adjusted the wide belt slung around her hips. A personal shopper at Barneys had sworn the belt enhanced her shape without actually drawing attention to its healthy proportions. An impossibility, in retrospect.

      Sabrina had finally grown frustrated. СКАЧАТЬ
