Carlton Young led a nearly perfect life in San Antonio, Texas until his government asked him to participate in a sting operation. The established reputation of his private airline was just what they needed. When things went from bad to worse Carlton found himself under witness protection and that’s when things started to get really out of hand. His bodyguard thought nothing of using strong arm tactics and she completely ignored the sexual tension between them. How was he going to entice his sexy guardian angel in to letting down her guard?
She is a good girl who wears black.
Beverly Sanchez was used to dealing with criminals and the scum of the earth. She wasn’t used to dealing with handsome good hearted business men. Could she keep him alive until the trial? Someone inside her own agency wanted him dead in a bad way. Her latest assignment was testing her metal as an agent of the United States Government. Carlton was way too charming and easy going and he had a way of warming up her cold, lonely heart. Could she resist? Did she want to?
"Come on don’t play so hard to get, agent Sanchez."
"Hard to get? I don't believe this." Beverly breathed out softly in disbelief. He just didn’t get it.
"Tell me your first name, that’s all I am asking, its not like I am asking you to reveal a state secret or something. We can be friends can't we?" His blue eyes sparkled with temptation and seduction.
The guy was flirting. Beverly drew herself up to her full height. "I refuse to get on friendly terms with you Young so you might as well get any ideas you might have out of your head right now. You are a case, an obnoxious one at that, nothing more. Now get your hands off me before I have to hurt you."
"Hurt me?" He laughed and it made her blood begin to boil. "Why would you want to do that? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds?"
No, he definitely did not take her seriously or have any respect for her worth as an agent of the U.S. Government.
"Yes, but do you know how ridiculous you are going to feel when I do it?" She let her words have time to sink in. "Don't let my sex or my size fool you, I have been trained well to do this job and they don't just take anyone."
He raised a large hand in plea, a frown forming on his handsome face. "Hey, I am not inferring you couldn't." He stated quietly his husky voice soothing over her heated nerves. "I am suggesting...Why would you want to?"
She looked at him long and hard while he watched her with his bedroom eyes none the less dimmed. He had a sure fire subtle way of putting the moves on her and she thought it had been tried on her by the best. His eyes alone hinted at just how good together he thought they could be and for a heart stopping moment temptation loomed before her like a living breathing thing. She would have to ignore it and him, bedroom eyes full of promise or not.
