Dessert for Two
One night with a stranger never tasted so good!
Lanie Hartsell is having the day from hell after her boss broke his word along with her spirit. Months of personal sacrifice and dedication to her work have resulted in an escalating sexual drought she tries to ignore, only to discover it was all for nothing. Arranging to lick her wounds and sip a glass of wine at a table for one, she has a nuclear meltdown when the trattoria’s host denies her the slice of sanctuary she reserved.
David Rafaeli drops by his cousins’ restaurant as he always does when he’s in Manhattan on business—only there is nothing normal about the ruckus in the lobby. It defies his nature not to defuse the situation, so the handsome stranger develops a plot to solve the sexy businesswoman’s dilemma—with him in the guise of her boyfriend.
David makes a cryptic offer to share his table with Lanie, but only if she’ll play the role of his date. As she makes conversation above the table, her body language gets aggressive beneath it. After he orders cannoli for two, she reveals a newly discovered exhibitionist streak when she devours their dessert. As they tour the city at night, David struggles to behave like a gentleman though Lanie destroys him with her obvious desires.
Can one night with a stranger fix this workaholic's sexual frustration?

When he sees the beautiful model in body paint at his annual New Year’s Eve Party, it’s love at first sight.

Not to mention the new object of his affections has caught the eye of his two friends as well. As he grapples with his own growing desire for the nameless model, and her surprising desire to be shared, a Dominant side he never knew he had emerges.
Caroline prides herself on her professionalism, including not talking to clients. She can live out her ultimate sexual fantasy, but only if she breaks the rules. Is one night with three sexy strangers worth the risk?
