His curiosity sparked, he has invited authors to stop by on Fridays and share the first fight out of their latest book.

“Me.” The one word shot from his mouth like a bullet in the air between them.
Her coke bottle-thick glasses had disappeared. Her lashes heavy-laden with mascara framed her baby blues, now on alert. Her pink-painted mouth unsmiling. He shifted his gaze lower and got a boot in the groin.
Her summer dress molded her every curve—the swell of her breasts, the accent of her waist, the roundness of her hips. Her legs were bare, tanned, sexy. He smothered a grunt. Her hair tied back with a pink ribbon, flowed down her shoulders, and he remembered how silky—
He didn’t want to go there. Strictly out of bounds.
“We’re closed.” Nina pushed him aside, her gold hoop earrings jangling, and moved one step up to gain the extra height to look him in the eye.

At five foot two, every inch counted. What she glimpsed in his golden-brown gaze knocked her back and she seized the doorjamb for support. Her pulse pounded, and she licked her lips.
He zeroed in on her mouth, and his Adam’s apple moved. A long hot beat, and he shrugged.
“Haven’t come for your…er…services—”
The crack of her hand across his cheek made her palm vibrate, but he barely flinched, except to choke her wrist between his iron hard fingers.
“I’ve come for you.” He coiled his lip in a near sneer. “To collect a debt owed.”
“We’re history.” She lowered her Roberto Cavalli sunglasses over her eyes and made to go past him.
“Right after you pay up, lil’ darlin’.”
“I owe you nothing.”
He yanked her slam hard against his chest, swooped down and stole a kiss. “That’s a hint of what you owe, in addition to a mil and a half you slipped out with.”

Deliberately, he removed her sunglasses and hooked them in the pocket of his shirt. She went to snatch them back, and he leaned away from her reach.
“Uh, uh.” He clicked his tongue. “Must’ve cost a euro or two, mmm?”
Oh, but he was a horrible man. How could she have imagined she’d felt anything for him but loathing—her eyes strayed to the smattering of hair on his chest visible by his half unbuttoned shirt, and excitement grazed the fury sizzling through her. Must be the shock of seeing him again, she reasoned.
“You were going to double cross me,” she accused, shoving him back. He allowed a small space between them, but still anchored her hand with his.
He arched a thick brow. “Really.”
“I heard you plotting—” her voice broke and she turned away.
“And so you decided to double deal me first.”
