“You’ve owned me from the moment I walked into that music room. You’ve wrapped yourself in my heart and mind. I can’t get you out. I don’t want to.” ~ Rafael Van Rees
Sophie Fisher’s life is on fire. If she’s not ducking around corners or slipping out of windows to escape the debt collectors her father’s death has left knocking on her door, she’s dealing with her rebellious, fifteen-year-old sister, Lilli. And, as if that’s not enough, Rafael Van Rees crashes into her life—literally—bringing with him a past the public has no idea of. Can she unravel his mysteries before he unravels her, or will his presence finally force her to face the demons she’s trying to outrun?
Rafael Van Rees prides himself on being in control of his destiny, music and women. As far as he is concerned, his past is a black cloud in the distance–until he meets Sophie, that is, and his world spins out of control in more ways than one. He knows the darkest sins and secrets eventually reveal themselves, but when it comes to Sophie, he’ll stop at nothing to protect her from his past. Even if it kills him.

A note from the
author:
I'm a big fan of beautiful covers. I also believe that
covers go a long way in getting a book noticed by buyers. I love ALL my covers,
but sometimes it's not easy for me to find an image that gives me the feel for
the story. Sounds pretty weird, huh?..LOL
In the last few months, I've changed the cover of A Need So
Insatiable twice, trying to find the right feel for the book. Recently, I did a
small poll between the current cover (the model in a suit) and an older version (the couple). As much as
the majority loved the brooding male on the cover, they also loved the one
featuring a couple. I decided to go back and change it to see how the response
would be. I'm quite happy with this one too, I love the male model's expression. Plus, just look at how he's holding her, and
where her hand is on his neck? **swoon**
Hope you all like this new cover.
EXCERPT
“Did you need something?”
“Just this . . .” I frame her face with my palms
and brush my lips on hers. She sucks in a breath, her eyes fluttering shut. She
grabs the front of my shirt as she sags forward, like her legs can’t hold her
up anymore. Slipping one arm around her waist, I pull her curvy, soft body
flush against my hard one, my lips still on hers.
Fuck yes! The buzz is still there. We were both young when we shared
our first kiss, but this. This is different. Time hasn’t erased the connection
between us. My heart recognizes her, beating to a rhythm that’s only hers.
Pulling back, I stare at the face that has lived
in my head for years. Haunting me. Comforting me. Her eyes slowly open, and she
blinks, looking dazed. She presses her fingers on her lips.
“You kissed me,” she whispers, as if it’s the
most unusual thing. Does she not get kissed often? Her lips were made for
kissing, and I can’t get my greedy eyes off them.
I tip my head to the side. “I did,” I say,
pressing my thumb on her bottom lip, inching up to the labret. Her mouth parts
slightly. I could kiss her again, slip my tongue past those delectable lips.
Taste her. Really taste her.
“Goodbye, Sophie.” I drop my hand and turn to
leave, then stop. “Nice tattoo, by the way. A butterfly.” I emphasize
the last word to get a reaction. Nothing.
“Mr. Van R--Rafael. Do we know each other?”
Christ, the way she says my name has every part
of my body straining, wanting to hear her say it again.
“Do we?” I lift a brow.
Her frown deepens, and her bewitching eyes,
smoky after the shared semi-kiss, narrow at me.
I’m not about to tell her. I need to find out
why she can’t remember me first. “Drive safely, Sophie.” I turn, and stride
back to Simone’s music room. I feel her eyes on my back, my shoulders, my ass.
I let her have her fill. I’m not going to deny her--and me--this chance. I’m
selfish, but hey, she needs the image to go along with the kiss. Right before I
turn the corner, she takes a loud, deep breath.
Damn right, Butterfly.
