He's forbidden in every meaning of the word.
But is that enough to keep him away?
It all started in Vegas.
Now, I know what you're thinking... What happens in Vegas is supposed to stay in the city of sin.
Normally, I'd be inclined to agree.
Until Lincoln Moore walks into my life.
On paper, we mix as well as oil and water.
He's confident. Commanding. Successful.
Master of his universe.
I'm a hot mess, barely holding on as I struggle to balance my job, finally finishing college, and keeping my mother sober.
But when the lights go out, nothing else matters.
Until I learn the truth of who Lincoln Moore actually is.
Sure, I probably should have put the pieces together sooner, but our time together hasn't exactly been filled with riveting philosophical discussions about the meaning of life, if you know what I mean.
That still doesn't diminish the fact he could lose everything by being with me.
But is that enough to keep us apart? Or is what we have worth the risk?
There's only one way to find out.
Let the games begin...

Excerpt
“You wouldn’t know where my panties are, would you?”
“Why? Have they gone missing?” he asks in faux surprise.
“Indeed.” My hands rest of the lapels of his jacket, able to make out the defined muscles even through the few layers of clothes.
“Hmm. It’s quite the mystery, isn’t it? We should open an investigation into the matter.”
I shake my head, inching my lips closer to his. It doesn’t matter how many kisses he showered me with over the past twelve hours. I still need one more.
I have a feeling I’ll always need one more.
“That’s unnecessary. I already have a suspect in mind.”
He playfully arches a single brow. “Is that right?”
“That’s right.”
He palms my lower back, yanking me hard and fast into his body. “And who is this panty thief?”
“You,” I breathe.
“Prove it.”
“I can’t. Not yet. But it fits your M.O. You do have a track record of stealing my panties and using them as a bargaining chip.”
His lips feather against mine. “You know what they say, don’t you?”
“What’s that?” My husky voice is unrecognizable. I suppose that’s the Lincoln Moore effect. He has me acting like a completely different woman.
Or maybe being with him allows me to be myself for a change.
“Desperate times call for desperate measures.” His lips move from mine, trailing hot kisses along my jawline, settling in that spot where my neck meets my shoulders. He nibbles as I throw my head back, allowing him to push me against the floor-to-ceiling windows. The chill of the January air on the other side of the pane tempers the heat coiling in my veins.
“And what had you desperate enough to steal my panties?”
“It worked last time, didn’t it?” His gaze locks with mine, his smile revealing the devil hiding beneath the tweed jacket. “I had to make sure you came…” He smirks, then finishes, “back.”
I thread my fingers through his hair, pulling him to me. “I knew I could get you to admit you took them.”
