Hawke & Quinlan in SWEET ACHE - the newest Rock Star stand-alone in the
Driven Series by K. Bromberg!
NOW AVAILABLE
Blurb
The New York Times bestselling author of Slow Burn turns up the heat when a sexy bet turns into so much
more....
Hawkin Play, the bad boy rock star with a good guy heart,
has lived a lifetime of cleaning up after his twin brother’s mistakes. Hunter’s
most recent screwup could land Hawke in jail and risk the band’s future. Hawke
agrees to guest lecture at a local college to stay in the judge’s good
graces—and a bet with his bandmate to seduce his sexy teaching assistant is
icing on the cake.
Quinlan Westin is harder to bed than Hawke imagined. She
knows his type and is determined to avoid the rocker at all costs—even if their
attraction runs deeper than simple lust.
Just as Hawke might finally be winning over the girl, his
brother has other plans. When Hunter realizes his twin finally has a weakness,
he’ll stop at nothing to take advantage....
EXCERPT
Quinlan
“Now you guys need to get
going so you have time for Quin to give you the complete rundown,” Professor
Stevens says.
Of course she has no idea
the double entendre she’s just given Hawkin about me giving him a complete
rundown, but I know Hawke catches it. I manage to resist the urge to stomp my
feet in frustration and storm out of her office like a toddler. Instead I give
her a tight smile before turning and walking out of the office and then the
department.
I stand there in the
sunshine, waiting for him to get his ass in gear and quit wasting my time. When
I finally hear the door open I just start walking and the sound of his boots is
the only inclination that he’s following.
“I’ve got longer legs than
you Trixie,” he chides from a few feet back. “But feel free to keep swinging
your hips like that, and I’ll stay right here behind you and enjoy the show.”
I bristle at the comment.
At the moment there’s no authority to be respectful of, no damage that can’t be
undone.
“A show?” The pitch of my
voice escalates as I whirl around to face him—sunglasses on, hair disheveled,
and I wish I hadn’t turned around because damn, he’s just that devastatingly
fine. I’m quiet for a beat as we both appraise each other from behind darkened
lenses. His dark hair, tanned skin, and cocky smirk pulls at those parts of me
I don’t want to be pulled. “You want to talk about a show.” I grit the words
out, trying to push my physical attraction to him from my mind. “Let’s talk
about your little performance for Dr. Stevens.”
“I know. I’m good, huh?
Sorry but a man’s got to do what he’s got to do . . . Besides, I wasn’t done
with you yet.”
My mouth falls lax and I’m
momentarily flabbergasted. “Done with me yet?” I sputter the words when I’ve
recovered my wits at his arrogance run amuck . . . But I can’t deny the little
flutter in my belly at his comment. There’s just something about him aside from
the whole I’m a rock-star thing, that makes me desire him in a way I can’t put into
words.
“Yep.” He says casually as
he unwraps a Starburst and pops it into his mouth. And I hate that I’m
fascinated with watching his mouth suck on the sweet candy. Luckily he speaks
so I can distract myself from the captivating sight. “I’m pretty sure you have
a usefulness . . . I’m just trying to figure out what that is.” He licks his
lips. “Well, besides the obvious, that is . . .” Smirk is handily in place and
I hate that ache starting to simmer in my core.
“Why don’t you go suck a—”
“Relax,” he says, angling
his head to the side and emitting a laugh as he steps closer to me. “I’m just
teasing you. You’re so damn easy to rile up and so hard to resist. Plus you’re
even hotter when you’re pissed. I like it.” He shrugs an apology, hands shoved
deep in the pockets of his jeans with a sheepish grin that softens all those
hard edges and makes me sigh with the contrast of characteristics. He holds a
red Starburst out to me as a peace offering. “C’mon, you know you want to be
the star to my burst.”
We’ve stopped, my hands are
on my hips, and the sun is falls around us as hewaits for me to react to his
innocent little comment. Deep down I know I’m screwed. I feel an urge to smile
but immediately realign my defenses. The contradiction he presents, the smooth
with the rough, is the one thing that I always fall for when it comes to men.
And I’m not going to fall
for Hawkin Play.
