He’ll
teach her to love her body…one spanking at a time.
Brienna
Morgan has worked hard to look good. Ten years ago she stuck to the shadows,
watching the popular kids, wishing she could be one of them. But when they
weren’t calling her cruel names, nobody noticed the smart overweight girl with
the glasses.
So
when she braves her high school reunion and runs into Kade McBride, the boy she
loved from afar, the last thing she wants is for him to remember her. It’s bad
enough she still sees that girl every time she looks in the mirror. But Kade
does remember—and he makes it impossible for Brie to refuse to go out with him.
She’s not convinced it’s a good idea, but she can’t pass up the opportunity to
be part of the in crowd.
Kade
had no desire to go to his high school reunion. As far as he’s concerned, he’d
rather forget those days. Especially the day he screwed up and left his best
friend to pay the ultimate price. But when he sees the gorgeous woman enter the
gym, he’s immediately drawn to her. Regardless of her claims that she’s not the
girl he thinks he remembers, Kade realizes maybe he’s been given a second
chance to right at least one wrong from his past. And he’s determined not to
throw this opportunity away, even if he has to tie Brienna to a spanking bench
to prove his point.

When the song ended, she tried to step away, but he
refused to release her and instead tightened his hold, sliding smoothly into
the next dance. His behavior shocked him. He kept his hips tipped slightly
away. It was an awkward position and it put a strain on his back, but better
that than have her feel his erection pressed to her stomach.
“Brienna?” he murmured next to her ear.
“Yeah?”
“You were the pretty girl who always hung back near
the edge of the crowd.”
He heard her intake of air. She shook her head and
stiffened, then tried to withdraw, but he held tight, this time close enough
she had to feel his cock. His fingers caressed the dip at the bottom of her
spine. She trembled.
“You used to watch me. I remember I envied how
smart you were, how attractive.”
She pushed out a harsh laugh. “I already told you,
Kade, you’re mixing me up with somebody else.”
“It’s not too late, you know.” His lips brushed the
shell of her ear.
“Too late?” she squeaked.
“To get to know the people you went to school
with.”
She placed her hands flat on his chest and pushed.
“Let me go, Kade. Please.”
“Why?”
“Because I asked you to.”
Kade dropped his arms to his sides.
She took two solid steps away from him and clutched
her hands in front of her. “Thank you for the drink and the dance, but I need
to…to leave. Excuse me.”
“But you just got here.” He mentally kicked himself
for coming on so strong and scaring her off, especially when there could be
nothing between them other than two would-be friends reconnecting.
She closed her eyes, bit her lip, and then opened
them and looked straight at him. “I just think it’s time for me to leave.”
She navigated her way back to their table. Kade
followed, taking in the other couples dancing, the people laughing and
reminiscing. Groups were gathered around photo collages set up around the room.
A photo booth in the corner had a long line of people waiting to have their
pictures taken with old friends while wearing silly hats and glasses.
When she reached the table she snatched up her
purse and turned to him. “I’m sure there are plenty of people here who you do
know,” she said. “The people you were actually friends with.” Her gaze dropped
to the floor. “Maybe the person you’re actually looking for is here somewhere.”
She focused on him one last time and then glanced at something over his
shoulder. “In fact, it looks like one of your old friends has spotted you, and
she seems to be anxious to talk to you.” She nodded her head in the direction
they’d come from. “Thank you for the dance, Kade.”
Kade swung around, hoping to dissuade whoever was
coming up behind him. Kim glided across the room, a look of determination on
her face.
When he spun back to Brienna, she was gone.

“My God, you are so fucking sexy.”
Brie sighed and tipped her head back on the pillow,
trying to see his facial features in the shadows. “You like?” She pitched her
voice low, hoping to come across sultry, like the vixen she’d always wanted to
be, then held her breath waiting for his response, anxious for his appraisal.
The man lowered his large body over hers, caging
her between his arms. His muscular calves brushed along the outside of hers. He
held most of his weight above her, but she reveled in the heat coming off him.
With a slight bend of his arms, he leaned down close to her ear and growled,
sending a shiver of desire rolling through her.
He nipped her earlobe. “Oh, yeah, baby. I like. A
lot.”
He stroked his tongue along the outer rim of her
ear, dipped in and swirled around. Even though she couldn’t see him well in the
dark, she knew him. Knew all about him. Wanted every inch of him.
His warm breath fluttered over her face. She let
her eyes drift closed as she rolled her head to the right, pressing her chin
into the pillowcase, giving him better access.
He trailed that wet tongue of his down to the spot
on her neck, right smack in the middle between her ear and the slope of her
shoulder, the one spot that after all these nights he knew drove her crazy. His
mouth opened, heat scorched her skin, and his lips latched on. He stilled and she
held her breath in anticipation. He sucked and she arched into the exquisite
sensation, while fighting the instinctive urge to pull away before it became
too much.
His weight dropped down, pinning her hips in place.
She’d waited for this, wanted it forever.
“I’m going to eat you up, baby,” he whispered
roughly. “This tiny scrap of lace you’re wearing is gorgeous and highlights
your sweet nipples and luscious breasts, never mind your hot-as-hell pussy. But
I’m going to strip it away faster than you can blink and lick every sweet spot
on your body. I’m going to tie you in knots, fuck you hard and fast until it’s
only me your body craves. No other man, Brienna. This is all mine. You are
all mine.”
“Yes.” She gasped as he returned to his mark on her
neck and increased the pressure. “Yours. All yours.”
She whimpered when he drew away to place kisses
down in the valley between her breasts, his face buried between the generous
mounds, near, yet so far from her rigid nipples.
Then he paid those nipples homage. He teased each
one, moving between them, tempting them. Leaving them wanting, begging for
attention. Like two little soldiers they stood straight and tall, poking
through the lace she’d spent a small fortune on, eager for his praise. Some
things were worth the sacrifice.
He made them wait. Instead he lavished an assault
down the inside of her left arm, stopping at the crease of her elbow to lick
and suck, leaving tiny love bites, marks she’d happily wear.
He continued his journey until he reached her hand.
While she watched, he sucked each finger, one by one, deep into the warmth of
his mouth. His tongue swirled around the digit, lapping at the web of skin
between each and then leaving the gentlest of kisses on the very tip of each
before he moved on to the next. Even though his face remained in the shadows,
she sensed his eyes focused on her the entire time.
He treated her other hand with the same dedication
and then started down her legs.
Brienna squirmed.
“Stay still, Brienna.” He chuckled, a low,
dangerous but oh-so-sexy rumble. “Or I’ll have to start all over.”
