Blurb
From the author of All of You and Before You Break comes a
new Between Breaths male/male romance about the silent, inked up skateboarder
and the tattoo artist who unravels him piece by piece...
Tattoo artist Cory Easton has worked long enough at Raw Ink
to know, just by looking at a dude, what his body art reveals, what makes him
tick, what even makes him scared. Until he meets the quiet and remote Jude
York--so unreadable, so unreachable, and so unlike anyone else, he can't help
but arouse Cory's curiosity.
As captivating and complex as his ink, Jude is a
mystery--and Cory's falling fast and hard under his spell. Against his better
judgment to steer clear.
The rumors of Jude's past overshadow him--whispers of prison
and an unmentionable secret that's kept him in the protective shadows of a
local motorcycle club. As Cory probes deeper, he wonders how much he really
wants to know. Especially since Jude has awakened something inside him that has
been buried too long--and has him feeling completely alive for the first time
in forever...
Includes a preview of Christina Lee's upcoming adult romance
Two of Hearts.
EXCERPT
Chopper, get your ass back here!”
While he was distracted, I silently moved toward him, hoping
to grab hold of that leash. But just as I approached, he took off again,
following that same squirrel who’d taken a leap to the next large maple.
I was out of breath and now beyond frustrated. I shoved my
hand in my hoodie, my fingers closing on a sturdy dog cookie.
When I looked up again, Chopper was headed straight for the
skate park. Shit.
“Chopper, goddamn it,” I called in some last-ditch effort.
“You don’t listen for shit.”
Unexpectedly, Jude York neared the cement barrier at the
entrance to the bowl. His board clenched in his fist, he seemed to be assessing
the situation as the large dog charged nearer.
He left his skateboard on the concrete walkway and stepped
into the lawn. He squatted down in the grass, made eye contact with Chopper,
and the dog changed course to sail directly toward him. What the hell was that
about?
Some type of deep whistle emitted from Jude’s lips and
instead of slamming into his chest, Chopper came to a sudden halt beside him.
Like Jude was a damn dog whisperer or something. His strong fingers grabbed
hold of his collar and he reached down to mutter something in the dog’s ear. Chopper
sat down in the grass. Actually fucking sat down—I had never been able to get
him to do that.
I became motionless as I watched them, even though Ace was
eager to inch closer. At least one animal heeded my command. I wondered what it
was about Jude that compelled Chopper to run toward him. I mean, I got the
appeal, so maybe it was just pure animal instinct.
The muscles in Jude’s forearm flexed as he stroked Chopper’s
head and the dog’s tongue hung out in a happy pant. The little fucker.
As I walked closer to Chopper, Jude’s eyes lifted to mine.
And for the first time I saw an array of other emotions alight in them. The
most blatant being amusement, as if his irises contained a flicker of light.
His lips tilted at the corners in an almost imperceptible smile and he looked
so dazzling right then. As he held my gaze for the first time ever, something
tightened like a fist inside my chest.
Shit, he was stunning. In that exotic kind of way. His hair
was a mass of short blond dreadlocks, his skin inked mainly in black, and his
eyes were the most gorgeous light green I’d ever seen—almost like cellophane.
And now those same eyes locked on mine and held steady.
Excerpt #2
“Come inside, please.”
I followed him through the door, telling myself it was only
to get Chopper acclimated. But Chopper seemed right at home as he bound to the
kitchen and lapped at the water in the dish that Jude had set down.
“I can’t stay long,” I said, feeling almost shy, like it was
my first time at his place. “I have a shift at Raw Ink.”
He nodded. “I just finished my morning at the Board Room,
but I’ll be heading to the skate park.”
“What was that one trick I saw you practicing the other
day?” I asked, watching Chopper sniff around the room.
“Hmmm . . . the one-eighty pop shuvit?” he said, shrugging.
“The one I really want to trick out on someday is the upside-down three-sixty
loop. But I need a pipe for that. They’ll have one at the arena for the
upcoming games.”
“A pipe?”
“A curved wall with a lip so that I can hang upside down.”
“Holy Christ, you’re going to maim yourself,” I said.
He laughed. “It’s a difficult trick but I’m definitely up
for the challenge.”
Suddenly he grabbed my face and backed me against the wall,
kissing me hard and deep and desperate. Like he was releasing it all—giving it
all to me. “I don’t want to talk right now. I want to taste you.”
I groaned and wormed my body closer, reaching behind him to
grab his ass. We were both instantly hard and he ground his hips against me.
“Every damn night I’ve dreamt of you,” he said against my
lips.
I pulled back to look at him. “You have?”
“Oh yeah.” His gaze fastened on mine. “I knew I couldn’t
have you, so the next best thing was the fantasy of you.”
“Same here,” I said. “I’d lay in bed and jerk off to
thoughts of you.”
He panted against my mouth. “What did you think about?”
“This,” I said. “Your hands on me, your lips all over my
body.”
“God,” he groaned. “And here you are. Right in front of me.
And I want nothing more than to have all of that and more with you.”
He backed me down the hallway, yanking off my shirt and
unbuttoning my pants.
It felt so urgent, like we were running out of time. Not
only because I had a job to get to, but also because I never felt certain of
how many more days we might have left.
“I need to touch you,” he said, hemming my thighs against
the bed, and forcing me to lean back.
