"What are you toasting to?" "Threesomes." Logan stated flatly. Luke damn near chocked and he hadn't even taken a drink. "Threesomes?" "Yes. Let's toast to threesomes. May every man be lucky enough to watch the pleasure another man can bring to his woman." "Frequently and in every possible position." Luke added before clinking his glass with Logan's and tossing back the amber liquid.
"This won't be over, Luke. I'll tell you that right now. What's going on between us, the three of us, this doesn't fucking happen every day." There was an intensity to Cole's words that Luke had heard before. "You own me," Cole Continued, his voice lowering, "you own every fucking part of me, and I won't back off this time. From you or from Sierra. Don't make me."
”Let’s toast to threesomes. May everyman be lucky enough to watch the pleasure another man can bring his woman. Frequently and in every possible position.”
”I’m not some little boy that you can toy with or one that you can tease with your so called needs. In case my brother didn’t tell you, I’m the real deal. I don’t have any qualms about stripping you naked right her in this seat and burying my face between your legs until you scream my name. You might want to think this one through because until now, until me, you haven’t met the man who will make you won up to those fantasies of yours.”
”He wanted to worship her body until she was ruined for any other man until she knew with every breath she took just how much he wanted her.”
What’s going on between us, the three of us, this doesn’t happen every day. You own me, you own every fucking part of me, and I won’t back off this time. From you or from Sierra. Don’t make me.”
”It didn’t matter how he felt about Luke, there was a part of himself that was reserved solely for this woman.”
”I don’t want anything from you. I just want you. And I want you too. Heaven help me, I love you both…”
His twin brother Logan stops by Club Destiny, the sex club they co-own to speak with Luke. Luke has absolutely no idea what his brother could want, but when Logan, Logan's wife Sam and a mystery woman introduced to him as Sierra Sellers show up at the club, he is instantly attracted to Sierra.
Luke's gaze landed on the sexiest most petite woman he'd ever laid eyes on. A hot flash of lust shocked his system, and he froze where he was standing.
At barely five feet tall at the most, even in those sexy as hell knee high black boots with at least three inch heels, the woman captivated him. And that was saying something because Luke had never been attracted to tiny, petite women, mainly due to the fact that he was damn near six and a half feet tall.
Sierra's attraction to Luke was mutual when she and Luke were introduced.
The man made her skin tingle. Everywhere. The way his eyes had grazed her, the equivalent of a sensual caress, had sent a shiver down her spine.
Looking down at her hand, she remembered the feel of his skin on hers, the way heat had spiraled low and fierce in her belly moments before her internal muscles had contracted. She had never had a reaction as all-consuming as the one she had to the feel of Luke McCoy's giant, calloused palm on hers.
Just being near Luke was short-circuiting her insides.
Cole Ackerley see is still reeling over his feelings for Luke and what happened 2 months prior also, and he too has been keeping a low profile. When he walks into the club and sees Sierra sitting with Sam, he's also instantly attracted to her.
She was exquisitely beautiful, in a very sensual, extraordinarily exotic way.
His heartbeat increased, and there was a sudden roaring in his ears. It was a visceral reaction, one only Luke managed to instill in Cole. Well, that was until he'd laid eyes on Sierra Sellers.
Luke and Logan are off in Luke's office at the club to discuss why Logan stopped by. Logan informs Luke that XTX is having a vendor's conference in Vegas on the weekend and his boss Xavier's admin Veronica (Sierra's mother) called in a favor and Logan needs Luke to escort Sierra to Vegas for this conference. She is an interior designer that just moved from Nashville to Dallas and her mother thinks it's the perfect place for Sierra to build her contacts and get her name circulating. Luke thinks Logan is out of his mind for suggesting he escort Sierra.
"Did you completely fucking forget who you're talking to, Logan? That sweet, innocent woman out there doesn't stand a chance around me, and you know it. You know me better than anyone else, and hell, you saw my reaction to her. You bring the two of us together, and you're opening up Pandora's box."
Surely his brother had gone insane. Logan had his own sexual preferences, a little on the dominant side, but the two of them weren't even in the same league. What Luke wanted, no, what Luke needed, was far darker than any single woman could give him. And that woman, with her sleek black hair, long legs, and tight body was a temptation that Luke wouldn't be able to resist.
Luke ends up reluctantly agreeing to escort Sierra to Vegas, then Logan drops another bomb on him - Cole Ackerley will be attending also as a representative of CISS since Alex cannot attend.
What the hell was he getting himself into? Being around either of them wasn't going to be a hardship, but Luke had a feeling he wouldn't be able to control his baser urges.
So on the plane ride to Vegas Luke has Sierra sit with him, he hasn't been able to get her out of his mind for the last 24 hours and when he woke up he vowed he wouldn't be kept away from her. They talk about their pasts and he reveals he owns Club Destiny and the type of club it is, he is shocked at her knowledge of that lifestyle. She's so knowledgeable in fact, that he wonders if she's ever been a part of a club like the one he owns. When asked, Sierra admits she has nothing against that lifestyle but just hasn't ventured down that path. Sierra was married 10 years prior but it only lasted a few months, she has always craved a more dominant man and wanted to experiment with new things, her and her ex were not sexually compatible and needless to say, that marriage ended quickly. Sierra quickly realizes that Luke may be the one that can finally fulfill her sexual desires.
"I might look sweet and innocent, Luke." Sierra whispered, then leaned just a little closer until her lips nearly brushed his ear. "I'm anything but."
"Honey, you might not be sweet and innocent but I'm the one that needs to be handing out the warnings. Tread lightly when you try to tempt me."
"I'm not some little boy you can toy with or one that you can tease with your so called needs. In case my brother didn't tell you, I'm the real deal. I don't have any qualms about stripping you naked right here in this seat and burying my face between your legs until you scream my name. You might want to think this one through because until now, until me, you haven't met the man who will make you own up to those fantasies of yours."
Sierra also has been privy to a rumor that alluded to Luke being bi-sexual, and it didn't turn her off by any means. She had seen the way Luke and Cole looked at each other and wondered what was going on between them. Her suspicions were confirmed that there was something between them with the way they acted around each other and the things they said as they were getting to the hotel.
The whole Vegas trip was an eye opening experience for them all. They engaged in m/m/f sex that first night and then Luke, still being unable to fully accept or understand his feeling towards Cole, pushed the man away and Cole ended up sleeping in another room sensing Luke's withdrawal from him.
Luke didn't understand the conflicting feelings; the need to possess Cole - mind, body, and soul. Those feelings piggybacked on his need to have Sierra - the woman he had thought about constantly since the moment he first laid eyes on her. Both of them consumed every waking thought, every conscious desire, and for the life of him, he couldn't explain it.
Luke joined Cole in the shower the next morning and after having sex, Cole confesses his feelings to Luke about what his going on between him, Luke and Sierra.
"This won't be over, Luke. I'll tell you that right now. What's going on between us, the three of us, this doesn't fucking happen every day." There was an intensity to Cole's words that Luke had never heard before.
"You own me." Cole continued, his voice lowering, "you own every fucking part of me, and I won't back off this time. From you or from Sierra. Don't make me."
They didn't realize that Sierra had woken up during the time they were in the shower together and heard Cole's confession to Luke.
As much as she wanted this to be strictly casual, her heart fearful of what damage two powerful men like Luke and Cole could inflict on it, she wasn't able to grasp the concept. Having only been intimate with them for a few hours. Sierra found that she was starting to want more. Likely a huge mistake, but an emotion she couldn't quell.
They attend another business convention during the day. At some point Logan approaches Luke about being a third again with him and Sam, he blatantly turned him down. As far as Luke was concerned at that point, he didn't have the desire or energy for anyone other than Sierra and Luke.
Later that night an incident happens that has Luke running from Sierra and Cole. What happen scared him, and since Luke was unable to cope with what happened, he left them in a hotel room and got on a flight back to Dallas. Cole and Sierra end up spending the night together to comfort each other after Luke left them.
After they return from Dallas, neither Cole or Luke contact Sierra. It's two weeks later when Sam invites Sierra to a party at hers and Logan's house the following day. She ends up overhearing a heated argument between Luke and Cole at the party (pertaining to the relationship between the three of them) and when they see her, she heads for the door to leave. Luke follows her and begs her to come home with him, but as much as she wants to, she refuses. As much as she wants to give in, she stays tries to stay strong, because after all- the last time she saw Luke he ran away when he got scared. She drives a couple blocks away pulls over to the side of the road and breaks down crying. After Sam chews Luke out for how he's been treating Sierra since Vegas, he takes off only to find Sierra pulled along side the road crying. He pulls her out of her car and takes her home with him.
I could keep going on and on about this story, but I don't want to give away the whole story. The rest of the book deals with Luke as he tries to accept the fact that he loves Sierra, and even harder yet - he has to admit is that he loves Cole too. He has to learn to stop running from his problems and instead face them head-on. Cole and Sierra have a much easier time accepting their feelings for each other and also for Luke. In their relationship, Luke, Sierra and Cole have their ups and downs and they have misunderstandings along the way as well as a little heartbreak. Luke also has to deal with the added stress of thousands of dollars in thefts at the Club and finds out it is a trusted female employee who has worked for him for quite some time. When Cole finds out about this female employee's problems, he seems so protective and concerned about the reason why the employee was stealing and he even offers to help the employee out and is constantly going to her house, which has Luke suspicious and developing trust issues, and when he shares this with Sierra, they question Cole as to why he's so determined to help her out and why he's spending so much time with her, he refuses to tell them the details. The secret regarding that employee and what Cole refused to tell Sierra and Cole about her situation comes out at the end of this book. Also there is a story that develops involving an issue Sierra and a client of hers that will continue on through the next few books.
This book is my favorite out of the Club Destiny Series. If you decide to read this book, I'd strongly suggest reading the first book 1 in the series Conviction first, as this book picks up where book 1 left off as far as Cole and Luke dealing with what happened in the last sex scene in book 1. Nicole Edwards is great at writing steamy love stories. Like I said in my review Conviction these books may contain lots of sex scenes, but as the series continues the story plot develops more and more with each book.
I love these books. Nicole is freaking HOT, she knows how to make a girl squirm....yup I'm talking about a girl like that...the hot guy lovin', muscle loving girl like me. That just shows how much this author can effect someone.
This is the 2nd installment if the Club Destiny Series. We get Luke's story this time around and some more seriously hot sex, hot hot sex, with lots of hot hot bodies and peepee's flying about.
Luke is fighting his own personal demons. He is so confused on how he feels that he just keeps running. Come on dude, your part giant and wear a size 15 boot (yum), if you keep running your going to start causing some earthquakes. After his super hot foursome with Sam, Logan and Cole a couple months back, he has been so messed up. Then, with the meddling of his brother and Veronica he meets the super hot Sierra. I have to admit, she sounds pretty hot to me too, black hair, blue eyes, super petite, maybe 5 feet tall. Not only does he have a attraction to her but Cole does as well....how perfect!
While attending a business conference in Vegas, things get pretty darn delicious! Then Luke runs...seriously dude, I feel for ya!
Luke really can't deal with not having his emotions in control, but what he feels for Cole and Sierra is not the norm. Sierra is freaking kiss ass. I loved her, shes a feisty little thing.I liked that she doesn't just bend over backwards (well HAH in a technical sense she does) for whatever Luke, the dominating ultra alpha male says. I give her credit, for someone who is supposedly not that experienced, she sure does handle the craziness of Luke and Cole.
Oh Cole, I really love this man. This guy just makes you FEEL what he feels. His strong emotion that he has for Luke is just, not sure what word to use besides...aww Cole. I'll admit that M/M scenarios really aren't mine thing but I guess now the way I need to say it is, they are not my thing unless its written by Nicole. I swear I would pay to see one of her scenes happen. I mean like Luke is seriously a SUPER DOM, and Cole gives him a run for his money but that results in a mega WOW!!! Keep fighting it Cole!!
These books just keep getting HOTTER and HOTTER!!!
" I want to strip you naked, run my tongue over your luscious curves and bury it deep inside your pussy"
yup...hot...please excuse me while I walk in my backyard and into the lake, the freezing cold lake!!
I really like Nicole's writing. She has a style that is so much different then most authors. Can't exactly explain it so you just have to read her work! Lets just say if I was 14 and Nicole was in a girl group of singers or something like that I would be in the front row crying screaming "I love you Nicole, I love you, please sign my fanny pack!" lol...she rocks!
Here is my casting pics!
