SUMMARY
Mallory Quinn has had enough of playing it safe. As a nurse
and devoted daughter, she takes care of everyone but
herself. And as the local good girl, she's expected to date
Mr. Right. But for once, she'd like to take a risk on Mr.
Wrong. And who could be more wrong than Ty Garrison? The
mysterious new guy in town has made it clear that he's only
passing through, which suits Mallory just fine. Besides, his
lean, hard body and sexy smile will give her plenty to
remember once he's gone . . . For the first time in his life, Ty can't bear to leave.
Helping this sexy seductress-in-training walk on the wild
side is making him desire things he shouldn't--including
leaving the military for good. As their just-for-fun fling becomes something more, Mallory
and Ty wonder if they could really be this lucky in love.
After all . . . anything can happen in a town called Lucky
Harbor.
Excerpt"Are you coming onto me?""Well, technically, you're on top of me," Mallory pointed
out. "So I think that means that you're coming on to me." With a groan, Ty pressed his forehead to hers and swore
beneath his breath, and not the good kind of swear either.
And though Mallory should have seen this coming, she
hadn't. He didn't want her. It was perfect, really. Perfect for the way the rest of the
night had gone. She pushed at him. "Sorry, I got caught up
in the moment. I'm not very good at this, obviously." Ty merely tightened his grip. "Not good at what exactly?" "Attracting men. Now if you could please get off." He lifted his head and cupped the back of hers in one big
hand. "You first," he said rough and gravelly, leaving no
mistake to his meaning. She gasped and he took advantage of that to kiss her, his
lips moving against hers until she gasped again, in sheer
pleasure this time. The kiss went a little crazy then. His
mouth was firm and hungry, his tongue sliding against hers,
and God, she'd almost forgotten what it was like to be
kissed like this . . .
