Take My Breath Away
As a former Marine-turned-Hollywood director, Cole Ryder's faced many challenges, but none like this. To research his latest film, he's spending three full days (and nights) in a lush, tropical paradise with sensual survival expert; Ariel Leigh, and--"according to her protective, wealthy uncle--"Cole is not to seduce her, romance her, or in any way touch her...not even when she oh-so-casually removes her shirt to show him how it can be used to trap fish... not even when she oh-so-uninhibitedly bathes under a waterfall...not even when unexpected kisses and playful pillow talk just beg him to take her in his arms under a canopy of stars. For paradise, this is starting to feel a lot like torture... Ariel knows her doting uncle only wants her to have a real man who's worthy of her, right down to his tender, faithful heart. Until Cole. Ariel was pretty sure such a guy didn't exist. But there's no denying what she sees in Cole's gaze whenever she's near, and why she's determined to give him one test to see if he's the one. Oh baby, bring it on. 'Cause this former Marine isn't about to let Ariel leave his heart or his life. He's out to prove that he is the man to take her breath away...now and for the rest of their seriously sexy lives...
