Courtney Cole's BEFORE WE FALL
Available 12/3
Summary:
One
dark moment was all it took to turn twenty-four-year-old Dominic Kinkaide's
world black. On the night of his high school graduation, a single incident
changed him forever, and he became a hardened man-famous in the eyes of the
world, but tortured inside. Now all he cares about is losing himself in the
roles that he plays.
At twenty-three years old, Jacey Vincent doesn't realize how much her father's indifference has affected her. She is proof that sometimes it isn't one specific moment that wrecks a person, but an absence of moments. She tries to find acceptance in the arms of men to fill the void-a plan that has worked just fine for her, until she meets Dominic. When jaded Dominic and strong-willed Jacey are thrown together, the combination of his secrets and her issues turns their attraction into the perfect storm. It could change their lives for good-if it doesn't tear them both apart…

Excerpt
He laughs, a
velvety sound. “Babe, I could show you a
bunch of things you’ve never done. And I
guarantee, you’d like every one of them.”
For some
reason, I have no doubt of that. It’s an
exciting thought.
He bends his
head and nips at my neck, then soothes the bite with a soft suck. His lips, so soft and smooth, ease the pain
of the bite away. His nearness is
intoxicating and everything about him screams that he is capable of so many
things… things that would please me… things that would embarrass me in the
light of day.
But still, I
don’t move. I stay right with him, my gaze frozen on his.
Keeping his
eyes on mine, he slowly dips his head and plunges his tongue into my mouth,
completely plundering it, consuming me yet again. It’s like he can’t kiss me without
devastating all of my senses at once, annihilating my thoughts and causing my
blood to throb as it all races toward one destination… the V between my legs.
Right where I
ache for him.
He’s like a
drug….and one taste just isn’t enough.
I open up my
mouth and breathe around his lips, sucking in air, grasping at his back and
pulling him closer. He reaches back and
grabs my hands, holding them together at my wrists and pinning them over my head
against the plexi-glass gondola cage.
I’m trapped here with him, yet there’s no place I’d rather be.
The energy
around us now is primal and raw…and it’s exhilarating too, because we’re out in
public. Every time the gondola swoops
along the ground before it begins its ascent upward again, anyone could look in
and see what we’re doing. They could see
Dominic pinning me against the wall, and his other hand buried in my crotch, if
only they looked closely.
Honestly, I
think he might like that idea.
“What are you
doing?” I finally manage to whisper, pulling away just ever so slightly.
His eyes are a
little unfocused, his pupils dilated. “What would you like for me to do,
Jacey?”
He knows. Oh, God, he knows. He knows exactly what I’d like for him to do.
