At just twenty-six, she's built an ironclad reputation: fierce, brilliant, and unshakably professional.

Captured By Him (Dark Romance)
He leaned down, pressing his lips to her in a deep kiss, tongues tangling hungrily. His hands roamed her back, unhooking her bra, letting it fall away to reveal her firm tits, nipples already hardening in the cool air.

She gasped, her pussy clenching around nothing, wetness coating his hand. They both moaned as he filled her completely, her ass settling against his thighs. ------------------------- She thought it was one night. One sinful mistake she could bury and forget.
