Beauty in Spring (Beauty #1)(21)
And he licks. And licks. And licks, his rough tongue slipping through my drenched folds and over my swollen clit, over and over, until I’m muffling my screams of ecstasy against my hands and writhing helplessly against him. Only after I come does he slowly lower me to my feet again, my legs trembling and aftershocks quaking through my body.
Then he growls against my ear, “Run, wife.”
I do, racing for our bedchamber—and I know he gives me a head start. Just as he often used to when we raced as children. But he doesn’t let me win.
Instead he catches me as I leap onto the bed, the beast in midair but it’s Gideon who comes down over me. I land on the mattress breathless and laughing…then moaning in sheer ecstasy when he spreads my thighs and his rigid cock pushes deep inside me, his thickness stretching the taut inner walls of my sheath.
“Gideon,” I breathe, and when he kisses me I taste my pussy on his tongue, taste the cold night and the moonlight and the feral fire that burns within his wild heart. My husband, my beast.
And in his arms is the place I’ll always call home.
Inspired by the story of Beauty and the Beast, four authors offer their sexy interpretations of the classic fairy tale…

Everything about me is fake…
I’m a small-town nobody named Olivia Burke, but I look exactly like a Hollywood somebody—that somebody being Keri Bishop, one of the most famous movie stars in the world. Now a threat against her life is going to change mine, freeing me and my little sister from my stepfather’s abusive control. All I have to do is pretend to be the actress until the danger is eliminated. I won’t even be in the public eye; I’ll be hidden away in a remote location owned by the Hellfire Riders—a motorcycle club hired by Keri’s husband to guard me—and under the personal protection of a sexy, lethal biker named Duke.
…except how fast I’m falling for him.
I can’t tell anyone who I really am—not even the man protecting me. His stormy gaze threatens to pierce the glamorous mask I’m wearing, but if Duke discovers the truth, I’ll destroy my chance to escape the hell I’ve been living in. Yet I don’t know how long I can keep this secret. Because Duke’s got demons of his own, and I’m desperate to soothe his tormented soul with my soft touch, with a lingering kiss. But I’m impersonating a married woman. And if I slip up even once, I risk losing everyone I love…
Starting with Duke, when he finds out how badly I’ve deceived him.
Faking It All is a completely standalone romance within the Hellfire Riders series. You don't need to have read the previous books in the series to enjoy this story.

Excerpt from Faking It All
Olivia
My teeth are so white.
Whenever I catch a glimpse in a mirror, I have to stop myself from staring at how dazzlingly bright they are. Two days ago, I considered my teeth fairly white. Or at least ivory. But now they could light up a room—or a biker gang’s clubhouse, like the one I’m in now. I’m sitting at the bar facing a mirror and the flash of my teeth in the reflection keeps surprising me.
I thought my new eye color would be the hardest to get used to. Contact lenses have transformed my irises from hazel to Keri Bishop’s famous sky blue, but although the difference was startling at first, I’ve already become accustomed to that change.
But I can’t get over my teeth. Maybe it’s not because of how white they are, though. Maybe it’s because I can’t stop smiling.
Maybe because I’ve never had so much to smile about.
I shouldn’t be smiling. The threat to Keri Bishop’s life must be serious. Her husband, Ivan Tataurov, is spending a fortune to keep her safe—and that includes the small fortune he’s paying me to impersonate her.
Not that I’ll see a cent of that million dollars. But I don’t care.
I don’t care about the money or the suitcases full of designer clothes and shoes that I’ll keep when this is done. I don’t care about the jewelry—including the wedding and engagement rings adorning my finger—that I’ll be able to sell for another small fortune.
I care about the custody agreement that Ivan’s lawyers are drawing up—and I care about my stepfather’s promise to sign it as soon as I hand over the million dollars.
And finally, finally, I will take Erin and get as far away from him as we can.
Just the thought of escaping my stepfather fills me with so much emotion, so much relief and joy, that I’ll either laugh or cry. But crying would ruin the carefully applied makeup that subtly contours my nose and reshapes my eyes to more perfectly match Keri Bishop’s. So instead of crying, I’ve been smiling more than I should.
