She’s stubborn, sexy and hates my guts but I will do everything I can to have her on my desk, where I have wanted her for months. Book 2 Isabella is nothing like the woman I see myself with. She’s an ex-cop, a stubborn woman and so sexy she completely breaks the control I have. I walked away from her months ago to save her from being hurt but once I have her back in my sights and in my office there is only one thing I can do now; make her mine. She doesn’t want me, marriage or commitment; so I’ll give her what she will take, my body. I’ll keep her close and seduce my oh so professional employee because I am playing for keeps and the only room I want to see her in is mine, in my bed. Where she will be adored. Book 3 Emma is shy, gorgeous and way out of my league. She’s possibly the sexiest woman I have ever met and a temptation that I cannot resist. I want her. I will have her.

Coffee, Sex and Law (teaser)


Avril Rose - 2018
    He’s always between business trips and, devastated by a dark secret, he has put a lock on his heart. That’s the way he likes it. But when he crosses paths with Zoe, all his principles fly out the window. Zoe is the opposite of his usual conquests: natural, funny, impetuous... and she has no plans to make room in her life for a man. *** I watch her delicate hands work over my torso, becoming intoxicated by her scent rising to meet me from her neck. “I’m so sorry,” she insists, now scrubbing the fabric with concentration, taking breaks to dab her forehead with her arm. She’s damaging my designer shirt. Instead of pointing that out to her, I observe her every movement. I surprise her a few times as she nibbles her thumb. A habit that reveals how nervous she actually is. “I’ll pay for the dry cleaning, of course. And free coffee for a week.” I don't reply. I resist the temptation to run my hand through her long, silky hair. I find her beautiful: her fragility, embarrassment, simplicity. “A month?” she offers, obviously worried by my silence. “It’s fine for the coffee. A week and we’re even,” I reassure her. "For the dry cleaning, I'll take care of it. Don’t worry about the clothes. It could happen to anyone.” She stops and looks at me, smiling, relieved by my pacifist reaction. “I think your shirt is ruined,” she announces, nibbling her lower lip. “Yeah, I think you’re right about that!” I agree, laughing. I’m speechless when she starts working on my pants, kneeling down between my legs. Is this a joke? I thought this kind of thing only happened in movies! Except there’s nothing funny about the position. On the contrary. The pressure she’s putting on my crotch awakens sensations in my entire body. My imagination becomes quickly uncontrollable. I want her. Forbidden thoughts start to creep into my mind. To touch her. Caress her. Kiss her. She suddenly stops, as if she had heard my inappropriate thoughts. Time stands still for a second, and the noise of the café customers dies down. Here we are, the two of us, completely isolated from the rest of the world. *** After the success of Challenge Me, Avril Rose is back with a funny and touching romance told by two distinct voices. Love, Law, and Lattes: A brewing romance, Avril Rose, first chapters of the novel.
