Billionaire Lex Rochester has a problem. Someone is trying to sabotage the family company, but the investigation needs to be highly discreet because Lex suspects it’s one of his own relatives. His solution—hire IT security specialist Jacinta Greene, who also happens to be his ex-girlfriend. With Jacinta posing as his newly reconciled girlfriend, the other Rochesters won’t suspect they’re being monitored.Excerpt:
The last thing Jacinta wants is to see Lex again. Their breakup still tortures her, but she’ll do just about anything to help her kid brother, even pretend to reunite with Lex. But the more time she spends with Lex, the more she realizes she’s never gotten over him. Which is bad news, because she and Lex are fatally incompatible.
The fire that still burns between them is as hot and irresistible as ever. Can Jacinta remember what’s real and what’s fake, or will she be hurt by Lex all over again?
She pushed aside the curtains and stepped out. Lex stared, swallowing down his drool. The silky, burnt orange dress she wore clung like a whisper to her figure, teasing his senses, firing his imagination. Its flowing lines, which only showed a hint of cleavage and a glimpse of thigh through the semitransparent chiffon, was more provocative than any plunging neckline or short hemline.Giveaway:
Oblivious to his attention, she twisted her head as she inspected herself in the mirror. “What do you think?”
He rose to his feet. “We’ll take it.”
“Are you sure? Is it suitable for your nana’s party?”
“Take it from me, that dress is hot.”
She shook her head, her expression uncertain. “Lex, you’re not listening. I need a dress that will help me fit in with all your high society relatives.”
“Of course you’ll fit in. I don’t understand why you’re worried.”
“Isn’t it obvious? You and I, we come from such different worlds. I don’t want to look out of place at this weekend party.”
She was genuinely concerned, he realized with a jolt of surprise. He moved behind and touched her shoulder, trying to suppress his libido in order to reassure her. “Jacinta, stop worrying. To me, you’ve always had a natural grace and style that money can’t buy.”
She lifted her head, meeting his gaze in the mirror as a smile illuminated her face. “You mean that?”
“Of course. Haven’t I ever told you that?”
Her eyes warmed. “No, never.”
“You’re a natural. You’ll fit in anywhere.”
“When we were dating, you never took me to any ritzy parties.”
“Not because I didn’t think you’d fit in, but because we were having too much fun on our own.”
Her lips edged up. “I guess that’s true.”
Stepping closer, he folded his arms around her waist and murmured into her hair, “Look how much fun we’re having right now.”
She inhaled quickly. “What—what are you doing?”
The citrusy scent of her hair was going to work on him. He could feel her body taut and vibrating in his arms, her fingers on his wrists, but she didn’t pull away. He stroked her waist, blood surging through his veins.
“What do you think?” The gruff need in his voice surprised him; he hadn’t realized until then how much he’d been lusting after her. “You’ve been prancing in front of me half naked for the past hour. There’s only so much temptation a man can handle.”

Whew look at all those man chests! Dang! I've enjoyed Kwan. I'm way behind in her books though. I know I have one on the tablet I need to get to. Can't believe I haven't yet!
