From first kiss to last
Nicole Carter just landed her dream job working for fashion legend Alexander James in Paris. Sparks fly when they meet. But her buttoned-up alpha boss is determined to ignore the heat building between them, and Nicole knows crossing the line is taboo. Though that doesn’t stop her from fantasizing about them sharing a steamy night together in the most romantic city in the world.…
The once-burned-by-love designer doesn’t trust women—or the powerful desire his alluring new hire is bringing to the forefront. Giving in to temptation will put everything Alexander’s worked for at risk. Is he willing to fight for the woman he thinks he could spend forever with?
“Mmm.” She sighed as his thumbs circled the base of her neck. “Right there.”
“There?” At her positive nod, his hands made their way under the sweetheart neckline of her blouse, sliding his fingers up and down her neck and shoulders.
The touch of his flesh against hers almost sent him over the edge into madness, but he maintained his sanity somehow; however, when she purred deep in her throat and softly spoke his name on a serrated sigh of desire—that was his undoing.
Swiveling her chair around, he pulled her up out of her seat until her soft body was pressed against his solid one, and without giving her or himself time to think, he fused his lips to hers. Her mouth was opened in a half gasp of surprise, which he took full advantage of, slipping his seeking tongue past the barrier of her white teeth in search of her own.
Oh, my Lord! Kissing her, thoroughly and properly, was even better than he had dreamed. Stopping wasn’t an option. Tasting more of her incredible mouth was his only objective, and he carried out that mission with a vengeance.

Dear Reader,
Our First Embrace was a story that simply took me away, and I hope it does the same for you. There was so much I wanted to tell, but so few pages I had to tell it in. More than once, I bemoaned my word count limitations.
This book was supposed to be the third and final installment in the Carter sibling trilogy. However, as I wrote Our First Embrace, the character of Victor James (Alexander’s brother) really stood out for me. I think he’s worthy of his own book. Is Monique (Nicole’s friend and coworker) the woman for Victor, or is there someone else waiting in the wings? Stay tuned to find out.
In the meantime, cuddle up with Nicole and Alexander as they search for their happily ever after. I hope you enjoy Our First Embrace.
As always, thank you for your continued support, and happy reading!
Judy
