Perfect Persuasion (Love's Second Chance 2)

After a wild weekend of passion on a business trip, Claire discovers she’s pregnant with her boss’s baby. It wouldn’t be such a big deal if Logan wasn’t the world’s most arrogant jerk. But he is, and she decides to keep the pregnancy a secret, even if it means losing her job.

It doesn’t take long for Logan to realize what’s going on and he isn’t happy Claire tried to hide the truth from him. To make matters worse, he and Claire can’t seem to agree on anything other than the insane attraction that keeps sparking to life between them. One minute they can’t stand to be in the same room and the next, they can’t keep their hands to themselves.

Even as their mutual attraction heats up, both are determined to guard their hearts. Claire can’t make sense of Logan’s hot-then-cold personality and Logan wants more from Claire than she’s willing to give. Can they meet each other halfway before it’s too late?

Read on for an exclusive excerpt...

Claire’s steps faltered when she entered Logan’s office. He stood facing her, uncharacteristically before his desk rather than behind it. He wore only his customary white shirt and black pants and his eyes seared her with an intensity she had come to recognize as desire. A heady charge filled the air between them, and Claire knew in an instant his summons had nothing to do with business.

Nothing at all.

The door clicked closed behind her, a loud sound in the palpable silence. She swallowed heavily, feeling her heart kick up its pace. He strode toward her almost leisurely, that gaze boring into hers, leaving no doubt to the sensual promise reflected there.

“Lock it,” he commanded, his voice low, deep.

Claire felt breathless. Witless. She’d lost all ability to formulate coherent thought. “What?”

“The door.” He smiled knowingly. “Lock it.”

Oh yes. The door. She shouldn’t lock it. In fact, she should open it and run away from the madness that gripped her whenever Logan was around.

Claire turned and flicked the lock.
