Sinful Rewards 5
By: Cynthia Sax
Avon Romance
Nicolas
Rainer, Chicago’s most sought-after billionaire bachelor, has finally
decided what he wants, and that’s Bee Carter in his arms, forever. He
shows up unannounced on her doorstep and kisses her until her toes curl
and her body burns.
Nicolas
wasn’t the sexy man Bee expected to see this morning. Hawke Masters,
her tattooed former marine, is riding his customized chopper toward the
condo building, anticipating an equally mind-meltingly erotic encounter.
Both
men want her with a thrilling intensity. Neither her billionaire nor
her biker wishes to share her affections. Is today the day Bee is forced
to choose?
I was SO very excited
for Sinful Rewards 5! What the heck am I saying! I excited for all Sinful
Rewards! I will have to admit that this past 30 days have seemed to drag on! I
was desperate to read more of this book, to see how her relationship with Hawke
and Nicolas was going (even though I am firmly #TeamHawke); I wanted to hear
more from Bee’s Stalker and from Lona.
But 3 little words
completely changed everything! 3 little words completely devastated Bee and
changed her life! and now my life has been split into 2 parts, Before Sinful
Rewards 5 and after (#BookNerdProblems ;-) )
So you are left with
a list of questions and not many answers, but the main question is always…what
will be do now!!!
I give Sinful Rewards
5 a well-deserved 10 out of 10! And now I go back to counting off the days till
SR6 is released.
Hawke lies on my bed, his huge form still and his breathing level, one of his hands resting on the stack of clothes beside him. He’s falling asleep. My lips twist. What is it about me that makes men comatose?
“You’re bored.” I pat pressed powder over my shiny nose. “You don’t have to stay.” I force the words, wanting him to stay, to keep me company.
“There’s nowhere on earth I’d rather be than right here.” Hawke’s low rumble rolls over me, lighting fires we have no time to tend. “There are many reasons to go to war. Some men fight for their children. Some men fight for the glory. Some men fight because their fathers fought and their grandfathers fought. I fought to protect moments like these, the quiet moments everyone takes for granted.”
I meet his gaze in the mirror, not expecting poetry from my rough, tough military man. “You don’t take them for granted.”
“No, I don’t.” Sadness flits across Hawke’s face. “I’ve seen too much to do that.”
“Is that why you watch me?” I skim pink gloss across my lips.
“No.” He chuckles. “I watch you because I’m a pervert.” I smile. Before I met him, I thought I was alone in my perversions. “And I watch you because you like it, because you’re mine.” Hawke places the clothing he’d folded in the laundry hamper, not questioning my need for neatness even with my dirty garments, treating the fabric as carefully as he treats me.
I say nothing as I slip into the dress because I’m not his. Nicolas is the man I should want. Hawke pushes my hair over my shoulder and zips my dress, his fingertips pressing along my spine, leaving a trail of decadent sensation.
“You look beautiful.” He brushes my tendrils back once more, his touch reverent.
I gaze at our reflections in the vanity’s mirror. Hawke is huge, clad in his hideous black T-shirt and faded blue jeans, all muscles and blunt features, a shadow of stubble shading his chin. I’m smaller, wearing a delicate designer dress, my makeup and hair flawless. We shouldn’t fit and we shouldn’t look right together, yet we do, his maleness framing my slighter form, emphasizing my femininity.
“You’re perfect,” he murmurs.
