      “Zoe, you okay in there?”

      “Yes. Come in. I’m just finishing up.”

      Ben walked in. “You’re determined to tame your hair. Leave it alone. It’s pretty down.”

      “It’s a squirrel’s tail. I need another band,” she said, unable to find the one she’d had before.

      Seeing it on the floor, she picked it up and snapped it around the ends, when Ben caught her around the waist.

      “Just what do you think you’re doing?” she whispered.

      “Collecting on a piece of my debt.” He leaned against the sink and brought her against him.

      “That’s unfair, Ben.” She lost her grip on her hair and the band spiraled off, falling onto the floor again. “You made the rule of no fooling around while we’re working together.”

      “I love that you have such a good memory. But if you remember correctly, our business concluded with the arrest. We declared the case closed.”

      CARMEN GREEN

      National bestselling author Carmen Green was born in Buffalo, New York, and had plans to study law before becoming a published author. While raising her three children, she wrote her first book on legal pads and transcribed it onto a computer on weekends. She sold her first novel in 1993. Since that time she has written and published more than thirty novels and novellas, and is proud that one of her books, Commitments, was made into a TV movie in 2001. In Commitments, Carmen even had a cameo role.

      In addition to writing full-time, Carmen is now a mom of four, and has just completed her master’s degree in creative writing. She’s a founding member of the Femme Fantastik Tour, a group that tours military bases promoting their literary works throughout the United States and Europe. In her spare time, Carmen likes live music, gardening, vacations in quiet, tropical places and long cruises that don’t require her to do anything but read, sleep and eat. Her next novel for Kimani Romance, Sensual Winds, will be available in July 2009. You can contact Carmen at www.carmengreen.blogspot.com or [email protected].

      You’re such a blessing to my life.

       I’ll always love you.

      To the Sparrow. You are always with me.

      Dear Reader,

      I’d like to introduce you to the Hoods. They’re a wonderful family of handsome, intelligent and sexy men who are on the right side of wrong, and who practice their own brand of street justice against those who’ve slipped through the loopholes of the legal system. My Hood family give their own special twist to the infamous fairy tale Robin Hood. I hope you enjoy reading about them as much as I enjoyed creating them. The first book is Ben’s story, but later you’ll meet his twin, Rob, and then Zachary. I assure you that the women in their lives love these men, and I hope you will, too. Please be sure to drop me a note at [email protected]. You can also keep up to date on the happenings in my world by visiting my blog at www.carmengreen.blogspot.com.

      Many blessings,

      Carmen

      Chapter 1

      Zoe lay on her back in the center of his bed, as Ben Hood teased her womanhood with the sixteen-inch strand of multi-colored Tahitian pearls she’d borrowed from her jewelry store for the White Linen Party. He smelled of man and cologne, and coupled with the yearning in his eyes, she couldn’t resist him any longer. Her nipples were like radar beams pointing right at his chest. And it seemed, under their own volition, that the hardened tips lifted her thirty-year-old body, and her arms circled his neck.

      The room was bathed in candlelight, yet she could still see his triumphant smile. “I thought you could resist me?” he teased, his knees dropping to her sides, his arms circling her back as he pulled the black bra off. His left hand palmed her breast before his luscious lips covered the caramel-colored tip.

      “You’re too hard to resist.” A low guttural moan tore from her throat as he ravaged one breast then the other. She shook with wanting. “Oh, goodness,” she moaned, and he laughed deep in his chest, his hand straying down between her legs. There was this direct connection between her breasts and her essence, and she’d never met a man who knew how to make them work together like him.

      “Who knew I would meet someone as fine as you at a conference?” Zoe laughed. Ben chuckled.
