“I can’t remember when I didn’t want you, Serena.”
The wind caught a few strands of her hair, and David brushed them back, resting his hand on her cheek. “And if you think I’m relaxed, well…”
He glanced downward, and she followed his gaze. Hello. Even the thickness of the denim couldn’t hide the erection straining against his zipper.
It was in a desire-blurred haze that Serena registered him laying her back on the soft blanket, pressing his weight against her. He surprised her by taking her hand and placing it against her breast, which ached for attention, the pebbled peak thrusting forward.
“Other women don’t affect me like this. Just you. And I don’t believe other men make you feel this way.”
Definitely not. Serena stared into his eyes, but couldn’t bring herself to admit the truth.
“Do you get this aroused with anyone else, Serena? This hot?”
It was a guess on his part, but an accurate one. She was hot and she was ready for more….
Dear Reader,
My author motto is Passion, Laughter and Happily Ever After. I work to include these elements in all of my books, but no couple I've written about before has shared a passion quite as intense as Serena Donavan and David Grant’s.
Friends since college, Serena and David had a very hot one-night stand the last time he visited her in Georgia, and though neither of them can forget the intimate encounter, Serena insists it was a mistake. She’s free spirited and easygoing in many ways, but her past has left her guarded about serious relationships—especially with someone like David, whose affluent corporate lifestyle is very different from her own. Now, with his company relocating to Atlanta, David has the perfect chance to reignite the sparks between him and Serena. When he hires her to help organize a charity auction his company is sponsoring, his ulterior motive is to seduce her into taking a chance on love. And seduce her he does.
I hope you’ll visit my Web site at www.tanyamichaels.com to read more about how your purchase of this book helps raise money to fight breast cancer, like the bachelor auction my heroine and hero plan, and I hope you enjoy watching Serena and David find their way to happily ever after.
Best wishes,
Tanya Michaels

DAVID GRANT didn’t believe in signs—unless of course they happened to suit his purpose, as was the case this April morning. The fact that his employers had voted to transfer their corporate headquarters to Atlanta of all places was definitely a good omen.
“Congratulations, David.” Lou Innes, the I in AGI VoiceTech, polished his glasses with a linen handkerchief as he beamed at David from the opposite end of the conference table. The announcement that David would move from Boston to Georgia and spearhead the relocation also came with an almost guaranteed earlier-than-anticipated vice-presidential promotion. “I’m sure you’re already working on exciting plans for our new location.”
“Yes, sir.” David flashed the confident grin he’d inherited from a long line of Grants. “I certainly am.”
Atlanta offered unparalleled opportunity. Especially for David’s love life.
When he’d gone to his parents’ anniversary bash in Savannah last summer, he’d scheduled an extra day to spend with his best friend in Atlanta, as he’d been doing ever since he and Serena Donavan had attended Georgia Tech together. Normally on these layovers, Serena subjected him to whatever little hole-in-the-wall restaurant she was currently enamored with, and they caught up on any happenings they hadn’t covered by e-mail. The next day, he would catch a cab to Hartsfield and fly back to Boston. His August visit had followed the familiar pattern.
Except, after the hole-in-the-wall restaurant and before the cab to the airport, they’d spent one incredible stormy night making love in Serena’s studio loft apartment. That was new. According to the tense un-Serena-like e-mail that had awaited him when he got home, it had also been a mistake.
David disagreed. But with her stubborn streak, he’d need patience and finesse to bring her around to his way of thinking. Luckily, he had both.
Their first few exchanges following his trip had been awkward, and he sensed she would have avoided talking to him if he hadn’t initiated contact. But as their friendship slowly resumed its former flirtatious tone, he’d been confident that, while he could have made faster progress in person, time was on his side. Then, right before he was scheduled to be in Georgia for Thanksgiving, she’d surprised him by announcing she’d started seeing someone.
As an overachiever who thought nothing of clocking sixty-hour weeks, David was used to his hard work paying off—this morning was a perfect example of the
