Happy Release Day D.C. Stone
Armed & Desired
Blurb:
Being a cop can be a dirty job … but somebody’s got to
do it.
Sergeant Alyssa Bloom, assigned as Patrolman Nate
Wilshire’s trainer, knows what it means to stay in control, be alert to her
surroundings, and keep a level head. Not so easy to do around the hot, young
rookie.
Nate has the best job in the world—police officer
with the sexiest partner a guy could ask for. Alyssa might be training him, but
he has a few things he’d like to teach her. Unwilling to act on his desires and
risk unprofessional conduct, he asks Madame Eve to find him someone to scratch the
itch Alyssa can’t.
With the need to let loose hitting the red zone,
Alyssa agrees to contact 1Night Stand. When her date is none other than her
sexy partner, she has a decision to make—maintain professionalism and leave…or
let her heart finally take control.

Excerpt:
Nate waited at the floor-to-ceiling window of the
hotel room and stared out across downtown San Diego. Tall skyscrapers soared
around the city, their tops dusted with popping colors of green, blue, and red.
Cars passed by in a blur, and with dusk only minutes past and the weekend
kicking off, nightlife began to bloom along with his own anticipation.
He tucked his hands inside the charcoal dress pants
and rocked back and forth in the uncomfortable black dress shoes. After
spending days in his boots and uniform, the toes of the shoes pinched at his
toes, and the soles unforgiving. He did not miss them. At all.
The door behind him clicked and a brush of air
alerted him someone entered the room. He stilled, his heartbeat kicking out an
erratic tempo in his throat, but he didn’t turn, instead watching a woman cross
the threshold in the window’s reflection. She assessed the larger-than-normal
hotel suite before her gaze settled on his back.
Perplexed, he tipped his head, recognizing her
familiar features. She progressed with a lethal grace only a trained law
enforcement officer would know, her steps purposeful, but silent, even in heels
higher than he’d ever seen her in.
Standing to the side, she set her purse and a small
black bag on a table, giving him her profile. A flash of deep red hair grabbed
his attention. He sucked in a breath and pivoted in slow motion, refusing to
allow hope to grow any more than it had, yet at the same time, fear sliced
through. The one person he needed to get out of his system stood in the same
room as he.
The night was about to go to hell.
Facing away from him, she took in the overwhelming
luxury of the room. Desire slammed into him, he came to life with a kick
against his fly.
Alyssa.
