Today, I had an
interview with Rayne Thurston. Before we even began the interview, I knew the
short snot would be trouble. Not only was Rayne late to the meeting at a local
café, but the little brat didn’t even have the grace to look ashamed. The only
thing he said by way of apology was that he was ‘tied up’ at work. After
glaring at each other for about five minutes, we both gave in and called the
silent battle a draw. Stubborn man.
Me: So Rayne, tell us a little about
yourself.
Rayne:
Well, what do you want to know? You have to be specific, otherwise, I won’t
know what you really want to know.
Me: *sigh* Where are you from? Where do you
work? Do you like working there?
Rayne:
Rayne waved his hand in dismissal. “Oh, I like my job just fine. Especially a
certain CEO.” Rayne then licked his lips in a decidedly erotic fashion.
Me: Are you having a forbidden office
romance?
Rayne:
Well, I wouldn’t necessarily call it forbidden. But the sex is so out of this
world that it may be forbidden in some countries.
Me: Rayne, do you really want me to quote
you on that?
Rayne:
Sure, I don’t see why not.
Rayne then
glances at his watch and declares that time is up and he is needed back at
work.
Me: Wait! We just sat down and I haven’t gotten
to the important questions.
Rayne:
Of course you did and I told you the sex was out of this world. That’s all you
really need to know.
Rayne then grabs
his latte and walks away without a backward glance. I shake my head, torn
between anger and amusement. Rayne really is a stubborn man.
Rayne’s
Temptation
By TC Collins
Blurb
Rayne Thurston has just gotten
out of an abusive relationship and the only thing he wants to do is live a
peaceful life. Rayne’s new job is anything but peaceful. Rayne’s boss, Colin
Edwards is always on his case and to top it off, Rayne finds himself attracted
to the powerful man. As the two fight the attraction between them, danger
stalks Rayne. Will the two be able to overcome their differences to find their
HEA?
Excerpt
“Rayne, in my office…now!” A deep
booming voice roared from inside the large spacious office in front of his
cubicle.
Rayne Thurston jumped and glanced
around, embarrassed as his coworkers murmured among themselves, sending him
pitying glances. Rayne sighed. He’d only been working here a week and was
trying to learn the ropes. It seemed Mr. Colin Edwards—the booming voice from
earlier—was determined to harass him. He’d done nothing wrong, but felt the man
was always bullying him. Colin reminded him a lot of his ex, Malcolm. Both men
liked to yell.
Squaring his shoulders and shoving
his fear so deep inside that the ravenous beast currently pacing his office
couldn’t sense it, Rayne walked to the ebony door with the nameplate, “Colin
Edwards, CEO,” and knocked.
“What the hell are you knocking for?
Come in!”
Rayne stepped into the office. “You
bellowed?”
Sharp, jade eyes assessed Rayne. He
resisted the urge to squirm and somehow managed to keep his head up. He was not
attracted to that sharp gaze. Yeah, keep
telling yourself that, and maybe one day you will believe it. Rayne rolled
his eyes at his thoughts.
“What is this?” A file was thrown
across the large mahogany desk and slid to the edge facing him. Rayne glanced
down but didn’t move from his spot.
“I wouldn’t know, sir.” Rayne kept
his tone monotonous, doing his best to suppress the desire he was feeling. Why
wasn’t he afraid of the man? And why did it turn him on when Colin used that
commanding voice on him?
