BLURB:
Sassy, successful Faith Brown has
earned her place in the boardroom through hard work and sheer ambition. Making
family is not on her agenda when there are businesses to develop and
competitors to outdo. So when a casual affair with smooth and irresistible
tycoon Mark Essien leads to an unplanned pregnancy, she’s determined not to
make the mistakes her mother made by living with a man just for the sake of her
child.
For Mark, personal matters have no
place in the boardroom. Spotting the perfect opportunity, he ruthlessly
launches a takeover bid for Faith’s Investment Brokerage firm. Finding out
he’ll soon be a father, he knows he can’t let the indomitable and sexy Faith go
through with her plans of single parenthood. All gloves are off. He’ll seduce
her by any tactic necessary if it means his child doesn’t suffer the same stigma
he did as a child.
With the media dogging their affairs in
the boardroom and the bedroom, they find that making family is harder than
making scandal.

EXCERPT
Faith
sashayed over to the mini bar in the corner, swaying her hips provocatively.
Out of her league trying to be sexy, but there existed no other way for her to
thaw out the cold Mark.
She
leaned her hip against the bar and turned to face him. His gaze appeared heated
and he couldn’t seem to take his eyes off her. Her heart pounded as she lifted
her glass to her lips before taking a sip of the lemonade.
"Would
you like a taste?" She tilted her glass towards him.
From
the flare of passion in his eyes, he knew she was offering more than a sip of
fizzy drink. He'd used the same phrase before he’d kissed her in her kitchen.
Now, she wanted him to kiss her again.
Tension
oozed off his body.
"You’re
playing with fire," he said as he took a step towards her.
"I’m
not playing," she replied, her gaze hooked on his.
"A
taste won’t be enough," he growled, his tone husky as he took another
step.
"Take
as much as you want," she said, her voice now hoarse and low as the whoosh
of rushing blood in her ears got louder.
"I
want everything...I want all of you."
He
stood in front of her but didn’t touch her. He shoved his hands in his pockets
as if he fought not to reach for her. The arc of electricity between them
sizzled. Body trembling, she didn’t know how long she could stand there, glad
at least the bar propped her up.
"Okay."
She
couldn’t believe she was agreeing to this. But as Ebony had pointed out, she
only had one life and as lovely as it was, there seemed to be something missing
at the moment.
Mark.
He
smiled for the first time that she’d seen that day. His gaze swept over her
from head to toes before returning to her lips. Was he going to kiss her now?
Her body vibrated with expectation.
"Did
you bring your car?" she asked, taking another sip.
"Yes.
Why?" One dark eyebrow quirked up.
"Mine’s
in for a service and I think we should get to your place. It’s closer."
Heart pounding, she slipped past him to go pick up her bag. He grabbed her arm,
his thumb brushing against her skin.
"Faith,
there’s no reason to rush."
"Really?
You’ve waited a year to have me, and now when I’m offering myself, you still
want to wait some more?" She raised her brow.
"You’ve
got a point there. I’ll tell Felix we’re heading off."
