(Steamy) This is a standalone spin off from the Distorted Windows Trilogy. You do not have to read them first but is recommended. THIS IS AN EROTIC ROMANCE! IT IS RECOMMENDED 18+ for vulgar language, very explicit sex scenes and some violence. (I tried to post an excerpt from the most tamed part of the book. Hahaha. The sex scenes are intense.) Excerpt: My hands moved to his hair, my fingers sliding through the thick locks, urging him to move where I wanted to feel him most. Placing soft gentle kisses down to my inner thigh, he then moved his head to the other leg, repeating the process. The teasing was becoming too much, my legs parting as I gripped his hair, trying to tug him towards my center. His soft chuckle caused hot breath to fan over my folds, a gasp escaping as my head pushed back against the pillow under my head. "Please Kai." "Mm, I love the sound of you begging." His tongue flicked out, sliding up and down my slit at a slow tortuous pace. "Tell me what you want, Raven." Panting, my hands fisting his hair, my hips thrust forward. "I need more." He growled, a delicious feral sound as he buried his face between my thighs. *** Lilly Vanderbrooke and her twin brother are both running from a past that they would rather forget. Moving back to the hometown and the house that they were born in, they quickly become acquainted with their new neighbor. Quiet, reserved Lilly discovers that her new neighbor is awakening something in her that has been dormant for years. Kai Carter comes from a troubled childhood and has done some really shady things in his past. He may have a less than desirable reputation, but there is so much more than meets the eye. When he first lays eyes on the gorgeous Raven-haired beauty, something deep inside instantly draws him to her. From their very first encounter, sparks fly, and the connection is intense on both sides. Join them on their journey of growth, self-discovery and electrically charged sexual attraction!

I spread my legs wide open so that he had a clear view of what I was about to do next, a strangled sound escaping his throat as I inserted the phallic shaped vibrator into myself. The pulsing instantly radiated throughout my body and the tingling pleasure combined with this voyeuristic peep show, had my senses heightened. A loud moan fell from my lips. Dare I say it?, I contemplated. Screw it, I had already come this far. Why not finish what I had started? "Ooh, Matt," I cried out breathlessly, my toes curling around the bedsheets. "Fuck me harder." From across the hallway, he sharply inhaled and a smile immediately played out over my lips. Mission accomplished. Vanessa Adams can't believe her fantastic luck when she meets hot bad boy, Matthew Jones. It's just a shame that he's introduced to her as her twin brother, Jake's new best friend. Unable to resist his charms, she embarks on a forbidden and steamy affair with him. She knows she's playing with fire but Jake is also hiding a massive secret of his own that just may destroy the bond he shares with his sister. What's a girl to do when the love of her life is off limits and her brother is not all that he appears?

ENDS ON A CLIFFHANGER (Book 1) When assassins and ex-lovers, Eliana and Reid reunite under unusual circumstances they must try and work together to take down the organisation that took away their childhood and ruined their relationship. ... "You can hate me all you want, Eliana. You can convince yourself that I'm the worst human being on this fucking planet, but it doesn't change how much I love you, how much I've always loved you. There is no one on this planet who I have loved as fiercely as I have loved you!" He throws his hands up in the air, frustration clear on his face and I swallow hard having to look away from his intense gaze. "But you left," I whisper meekly feeling my guard crumble bit by bit. The silence between me and Reid is tense. The way we look at each other has my heart pounding in my chest and my breath stuttering. There's a metre between us and Reid's chest heaves as he tries to calm down. "You left, Reid." I croak, my eyes burning with tears and his face softens. He closes the space between us and cradles my face in between his large, soft, tattooed hands, leaning down to rest his forehead against mine, his eyes fluttering shut. "And I'll never leave you again, Eliana. Death would have to take me before I left you, baby."
