“You know, you took my breath away that night.”
“You never said.”
“I’m saying now.”
I stretch up to brush my lips across his. “Did you also say something about getting me naked?”
He grins at me. “I did. I certainly did.”
It takes him all of twenty seconds to accomplish his goal. I’m just as keen, grasping at his shirt to unfasten the buttons, then releasing the button on his jeans. James rolls onto his back to shove them down, his boxers, too, and then shifts onto his side to pull me beneath him. He smooths my hair away from my face before sealing his mouth over mine again.
He takes his time, and despite my reticence earlier, I’m impatient now.
James, I want—”
“There’s no rush,” he murmurs. “We have all night.”
“Yes, but—”
“Shhh, let me show you.”
“I want to know about pain and pleasure.” Where did that come from?
“And I’ll show you, but not yet. Tonight is all about the pleasure, and it’s all about the now.”
I lie still, my eyes closed, conscious of his fingers on my body, his lips feathering across the point of my shoulder. He is unhurried as he traces a leisurely path to my breast, a trail of kisses, then he takes my nipple between his lips and sucks hard.
I gasp and arch, tunnelling my fingers through his dark hair. It’s soft and curls a little at the ends.
James releases my sensitive bud and lifts his head to meet my eyes. “Be still, honey. Don’t move, just feel.”
“I don’t understand.”
“Hands flat on the bed. Spread your legs and remain absolutely still.”
“But—”
“I promised you pleasure.”
“Yes,” I whisper.
“Then do as I say and trust me.”

Above and beyond the call of duty…
Police officer Heather Douglas stops an attempted break in on a remote Scottish island then, in an act of spontaneous compassion, she sets in motion an astonishing chain of events.
A tearful reunion places Heather right at the heart of the formidable Clan McLeod when the Canadian exiles return to the Isle of Skye. After a family rift lasting half a century, the McLeods have every reason to be grateful to Heather. James McLeod is happy to show their appreciation but is he motivated purely by a sense of duty? Wealthy and successful, James is a Dom, used to getting what he wants. And he wants her.
