Chandler by Laurelin Paige
A Fixed Trilogy Spinoff
Release Date: September 20th, 2016
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Book Description:
I'm good in a boardroom, but I’m better in the bedroom. Much better. I can charm the skirt off any woman in one encounter. I'll even give her an orgasm before I put her in a cab. Or three. No more or she’ll start making plans for the future and I'm not into that.
Or I wasn’t until Genevive Fasbender. She's the first woman in five years that I want to spend the whole night with. And she's the first woman who’s told me I'm not what she wants in a lover, even after multiple O’s. She’s brash and bold and stubborn as hell, and she doesn’t believe it’s possible to satisfy her.
But I’m up for the challenge.
And after an incident in my brother’s office closet―a downright dirty incident―I think I’m just the guy to deliver.
Genevive Fasbender will never know what’s coming.

Excerpt:
Five
minutes later, the valet pulls up with my car. Genevieve raises an eyebrow. “A
Bugatti?”
I’m
so impressed she can name the model that I practically jizz in my pants. “It’s
the best.”
She
shakes her head, and I swear I hear her mutter something about rich men and
their toys, but I don’t respond, too occupied with inspecting my car and then
passing the attendant the cash I promised him earlier for returning my vehicle
in perfect condition.
I
slide into the driver’s seat, and when I look over at Genevieve as she buckles
her seatbelt, a wave of pure, unadulterated lust rolls through me. I’m very
aware that I’ve trapped her, that she’s now defenseless to my whims. Not that
I’d take advantage, but goddamn, to think that I could…
I
nearly shiver at my own vile thoughts.
Glad
she can’t know what I’m thinking, I flash her a smile. “So. Where am I taking
you?”
“I’m
staying at the Park Hyatt on 57th Street.”
“Fancy.”
The Park Hyatt is one of the nicest luxury hotels in New York. That means this
girl has money, which isn’t a bad thing. Just, the swell of my wallet in my
back pocket is usually one of my better attributes. If wealth doesn’t attract
her, I hope I’m not shit out of luck when it comes to getting an invitation up
to her room.
Apparently,
I’m transparent because she asks, “Not impressed?”
“Quite
the opposite. I’m worried you won’t have a reason to be impressed with me.” Now I’m the one who can’t believe
how honest I’m being.
“It’s
a valid worry,” she says after a beat, and I can’t tell if she’s teasing or
being blunt. Can’t tell if I should prepare for gut-wrenching disappointment or
dive into another round of sexy banter.
I
concentrate on my driving instead, speeding up before slipping expertly into a
tight opening in the adjacent lane.
I’ll
admit I’m showing off.
“Smashing,”
she says with a tone that vibrates through my body like I’m a tuning fork.
Then,
abruptly, she laughs, and I turn my head toward her, alarmed at the source of
her amusement.
“I
still can’t believe you drive a Bugatti in the city. I can’t decide if that
makes you brilliant or as mad as a bag of ferrets.”
“Brilliant,
of course.” Though, with her so close, I feel more like I’m going crazy. “What
can I say? I like things that are fast.”
“Of
course you do.”
“You
don’t?” I raise a questioning brow. “Maybe you don’t understand how awesome
fast can be.” I put my foot on the gas and race down the next block to prove my
point.
The
traffic light turns red as I approach the intersection, and I ease the brakes.
“See? Fast is fun.”
“The
problem with fast is it’s over too quickly.”
Is
that innuendo? Her gaze pierces into me, and the air around us feels tight and
charged, and I’m suddenly certain that I will die if I don’t get to taste her
tonight.
Even
if she didn’t mean anything more when she made her statement, I certainly do
when I say, “Don’t worry. I know when to take my time.”
She
exhales, slowly, and I swear I can feel
it. As though she’s already in my arms and her breath is grazing every inch of
my bare skin. No matter what happens after this, I know she at least feels this…this
attraction. Or whatever it is.
Her
voice is low and sultry when she replies. “You’re not talking about cars
anymore. But do you really take your time? I’d guess you bolt the minute you’re
finished.” She’s so blunt, so direct, and I don’t know if it’s a her thing or an English thing, but I
like it.
I
also like this conversation we’re having. Because we’re drawing the lines, and
that means the potential for tonight is high. So I answer with a nod, making
sure she understands that she’s correct in thinking I’ll bolt. Because I will.
