What You Want: Romance and Sex


Kimberly Smith - 2017
     When Victoria finds that the man she has come to love has been lying to her, will she be able to forgive him? Victoria Timmons' life is all about work. She is so driven to succeed that she has given up on the prospect of finding love and passion. She has a full-time job and lives with her aging, disabled mother as well as having a side hustle. Victoria has too many responsibilities which doesn't allow much time for anything outside of work. Her boss has dangled a carrot of a promotion in front of her. She has done everything she can to prove that she can handle the job. The new position will allow her to quit her part-time job and maybe have a life that isn't always about work. When she finds out that the position has been giving to someone else, Victoria realizes that she might never have what she wants. Maximillian Jackson Quinn is a charismatic tech billionaire who gets what he wants. He wants a small up and coming company, but before he can close the deal, the current owner places a condition on the sale. Max agrees not to release the employees from their jobs until he has spent time getting to know them and their abilities and talents. In this process, he finds that the company has something else that is a sweet temptation, Victoria Timmons. Keeping his identity a secret from everyone for a month is no difficult task until he decides to pursue a relationship with Victoria. Once he convinces her to take a chance on him, it becomes challenging when his family becomes the center of a public scandal, one that could expose his identity and end the best romance and sex of his life. Jackson is every bit the man intended for an Alpha male romance and Victoria is the perfect African American fiction heroine. The essence of any good romantic love story is the journey from the introduction to the conclusion, of course, it doesn't hurt to fill it with desire, enticing romance, and sex. Experience the exciting contemporary romance, "What You Want." Inside Flap: “I liked kissing you.” He said with a smirk. Her heart rate sped up. “Didn't you like kissing me?” Victoria swallowed, “No.” “No?” he said pulling her close. He flicked his tongue over her lips, and when she responded with a sigh, he captured her lips in a kiss that made her moan with desire. She wanted to push him away as her hands moved to his chest, but the feel of his hard muscular body made her step closer molding her body to his. She opened her mouth to him as he explored her sweet mouth with his tongue. His hands moved to cup her ass. He squeezed it. He loved the softness. She moaned again, a sound that he could easily get used to hearing. He wanted to continue this exploration of her soft curvy body but now was not the right time or place. He reluctantly pulled his mouth from hers and met her eyes, smiling. “Liar.” Advanced Reader Reviews: L.R. I adore the book, I had to take some time to warm up to Vicky, but I loved "Jackson" from the first. Let's not talk about Grandpa Jack. He's a doll. I just loved him. D.A. I enjoyed Victoria, she is a strong heroine and didn't come across as the stereotypical black female character a lot of authors are using now. Thank you for allowing me to read your book. J.A.H. Wow, this is a romantic love story that was worth reading. Can't wait to see what else you are working on. D.R. This was my first interracial romance black women white men. Jackson and Victoria are hot together. I will be reading more multicultural romance books. I.
