  Sophia slipped her hand into James’s. “Come on, let’s go, and I’ll give you some more lovins for your poor eye.” She touched his cheek and sighed. “I seriously need to talk to Viv so she stops getting all cranky with you. I’m a grown freaking woman,” she muttered.

  Nodding, he squeezed her hand. Lifting it to his lips, he pressed a kiss to her knuckles. “Yes, ma’am,” he said, softly. He tugged her toward the door as the others filed out. Walking with her, he led her to the elevator with a couple of the others. They all rode to their levels in silence. Once they were in their room, James pulled her into his arms and hugged her close. “Love you, Sophia. I’m not going to let anything happen to you, or any of the other VV’s. Promise,” he whispered.

  Sophia moved her hands up and down his chest. “I need you,” she said, with a grin. “Your eye won’t be an issue, right? Because I want you. Naked. Now.”

  “Gods, Sophia, you amaze me. Still thinking about jumping me with everything else going on. Hot damn, woman, I truly am the luckiest man alive.” Scooping her up in his arms, he dashed through their suite toward the bedroom.

  Sophia’s laughter filled the room. “Well, I can’t help it. You’re seriously sexy, and I can’t help but want to jump you.” She leaned in, kissing him to stop him talking. She just wanted him naked. Period.

  About the Author

  Having been a lover of the written word all her life April has always wanted to expand her horizons and write something that could be shared with the world. Only one thing held April back, the fact that the letters and numbers mixed and jumbled more often than not. Diagnosed with Dyslexia when she was eight years old April had to work her butt off just to be able to keep up with the other kids in reading and writing, so her love for fictional writing was tossed to the wayside for the moment.

  Time marched on, as it always does, and she forgot her childhood dream of becoming an author and instead focused on what she had to - creating a career for herself.

  As the endless waves of time passed the shores became less rocky and more sandy, a place where she could find an even foot. That and Microsoft invented Word. Halleluja.

  This is where April began her journey into the written world, the world that her imagination had been ceaselessly creating for her entire adult life.

  Now she has been given a chance to let her literary wings unfold and fly, thanks to her amazing publishers.

  Now its time to let the dream take flight and watch it soar!
