From New York Times Bestseller Pepper
Winters writing as Tess Hunter, comes a sarcastic, sexy standalone
full of men with big 'you know whats', puppies, pigmy pigs, and
swoon-worthy moments.
I don't want to touch it.
I really,
really don't.
He's egotistical, crass, and my patient's
owner--which makes him totally off limits.
Yep, that's right. He
owns the wiener I'm currently working on.
A wiener dog--get your
dirty mind out of the gutter.
I've also worked on his Spoodle, his
Cocker-shitzu, and a Cheagle--don't ask. (And no, it's not a sexual
position).
It doesn't help that he also represents most of my
joint-owned veterinary practice's small clientele. We'd only just
opened the doors a few months ago, and in he strode with a yelping
Taco Terrier. One haughty look at our sparkling new facilities, he'd
demanded royal treatment, even though I was currently finger deep up
a squalling tom cat.
Ever since then, he expects me to serve
him.
Any time. All the time.
Him and his revolving zoo of
dogs.
One of these days, I'm going to swat him for being such a
pompous ass but I can't deny the way he handles his charges makes me
want to see past the 'do as I say and don't ask questions' barking
exterior.
But then last week...he caught me staring at his um,
cough, package.
His bossy commands switched to a cocky smirk.
He
gave me permission to do something I promised myself I would never
ever do.
I can touch it.
If I want...
“Earth to vet Fairfax.” Ryder waved
his hand in front of my face.
I jumped, hugging the dog tighter.
“What? What happened?”
He bit his lip, doing his best not to
smile. “You space-cadeted on me again.” He chuckled. “You were
looking at my mouth. You weren’t thinking of doing bad things to me
again, were you? Because if you were…I can totally help with
that.”
Yes, please.
It would be so easy to nod and let
whatever magic between us ignite. But we were at my work. I was
supposed to be a mature, composed female.
Be that female!
My
cheeks heated as I dropped my gaze to the Chinese Crested in my arms.
“I wasn’t thinking bad things. Not in a bajillion
years.”
“Bajillion, huh?” He raised an eyebrow. “Never
heard of that amount of time.” He came closer, bringing sex and
sparks and seduction. “Can I perhaps trade your bajillion and put
my own time stamp on it?”
I froze as his hand cupped my
cheek.
My face leaned into him.
Damn face.
Damn hand.
Damn
chemistry.
“I suppose…” I breathed as his chest strained
beneath his grey t-shirt. He was the one seducing me, yet he was just
as affected. “What did you have in mind?”
His eyes lingered on
my lips. “Do something for me and I’ll kiss you right here, right
now.”
My mental capacity crashed.
“Do what?”
His eyes
burned hot into mine. “It’s a huge, huge favour.”
The way he
said huge made me think he’d swapped the word favour for cock.
I
burned up as his thumb grazed my cheekbone.
He murmured, “If you
did it, I’d do whatever you want.”
What, you’d chase me?
Pretend to be a policeman and handcuff me? Reach inside my head and
be prepared to play with me?
My tummy clenched. “What are you
proposing I do?” I held the squirming dog as she tried to wriggle
into my scrubs, looking for warmth. Not that I could blame her—it
was fairly chilly in here with the air conditioning.
“You’d do
it?” His eyes turned luminous. “For me?”
“Yes.”
Way
to go, Ves. Don’t sound desperate or anything.
He smiled.
“You’re such a kind, sweet…” His head tilted, bringing his
mouth close to mine. His scent of outdoors and timber shot up my nose
as he brought me forward, our lips only inches apart. “…amazing
woman. I’m so fucking hard for you right now, Vesper.”
Dangnamit,
everything inside me tightened, melted, swapped ownership and put its
hands in the air to flay like idiots over how much I liked this
guy.
How much I wanted this guy.
“Tell me what you want me to
do, Ryder.” I licked my lips, almost hyperventilating with how much
I needed him to kiss me.
“Christ, I love it when you say my
name.” His thumb ran over my bottom lip, pulling it down as he
pressed the lightest kiss there. “Vesper, I wouldn’t just ask
this of any other woman. I’m asking you because you’re so damn
incredible.”
Ask me what?
You want me naked and on all
fours?
Got it, give me three seconds.
You want me to dress up
in a nurse’s uniform and look after you instead of the dogs you
bring in?
Hell yes, get on my table and drop ‘em.
I swallowed
again. “Spit it out. I need to know.”
My heart needed to know
before it galloped from my chest and left me a corpse.
“Okay,
here it goes. Can you, Vesper Fairfax…knit?”
Eh…
What?!
I
blinked, wrenching my face from his hold. “What did you just
say?”
He bit his lip, shaking with mirth. “I asked how skilful
you are with two needles and some wool.”
“Why? Do you have
some crazy fetish you’re trying to admit to?”
“I have
fetishes, but needles aren’t included.” He couldn’t hold back
his laughter anymore. “Man, you should see your face.”
You
should see what you did to my knickers, you jerk.
Tess Hunter is the superhero pen name
of a New York Times, Wall Street Journal, & USA Today Bestseller
who gave up swallowing her one-liners and decided to write them
instead. Her libido scares even her and having an outlet to be
snarky, stupid, and sexy while cloaked by incognito is the perfect
recipe for naughtiness online and in-between the romance pages.
