Stuck in a boring insurance
job, vivacious Mia Donovan has spent the last few years searching for her
life's true path. She fills her time helping plan the wedding of her best
friend to the CEO of the Sugar Rush Candy Company.
Mia has also been trying to
attract the impossibly rigid Sugar Rush security chief Gavin Knight. But
for well over a year, the unyielding Mr. Knight has ignored her, despite her
short skirts, tight sweaters, and patently obvious flirting. And when he
finally approaches her, it's only to assess the wedding plans for potential
security risks.
A former soldier, Gavin has
intercepted hostile anonymous letters threatening the high-profile wedding.
Determined to keep everyone safe, he's forced to work with the maddeningly sexy
Miss Donovan of the thousand-watt charm and irresistible body.
Irked by Gavin's many
months of disregard, Mia takes her teasing flirtations to a whole new level.
But her coquettish ways are no match for the edgy, lust-fueled dominant he
conceals behind his impassive exterior. And when Gavin exerts his full control,
Mia discovers he can protect everything except her heart.
I could not wait to get my
hands on this couple's story since first introduced in Sweet Dreams and WOW,
Sweet Time was a tasty little treat. Sexy, flirty and witty, Gavin and Mia's
romance was on the shorter side in comparison to the other installments, yet no
less enjoyable. Eloquently written and jam-packed with all the goodness this
author spoils me with ~ a captivating plot, a sprinkling of drama, lovable
characters and heaps of passion ~ it was a delightful addition to Nina Lane's
Sugar Rush series.
Following the storyline, we
know that poor Mia Donovan tried every trick in the book striving to catch the
eye of her long-time crush, Gavin Knight, but to no avail. Patient and
tenacious, she never gave up the hope of winning him over. Seriously focused on
his business, as well as heading the Sugar Rush Candy Company's security team,
Gavin seemed to pay little attention to Mia, and with good reason. The constant
battle with demons from his past prevented Gavin from giving into his hidden
desires. But when they are forced to work together and help plan their good
friends' wedding, the crackling sexual tensions between them finally exploded,
and the fiery chemistry between these two sizzled.
Mia and Gavin were made for
each other and were the perfect "opposites attract" type of couple.
Mia's outgoing and whimsical personality complemented that of disciplined,
commanding, and standoffish Gavin. Together, their powerful connection and the
love they shared made sparks fly within kindle. Mia was a lovable heroine, a
bit immature and looney at times, but with a kind heart and good intentions.
She added a lighthearted feel to this read with all her feisty and flirtatious
shenanigans. Gavin, on the other hand, was intense, incredibly swoon-worthy and
all Alpha. A hero with an erotic side, his broody hotness and overly sexual
demeanor were ass-spanking yummy. There was a part of me that wanted more
from his character as I felt he was holding a little piece of himself back -
perhaps more insight into his past - as I did not want to let him go.
Regardless, he captured my heart with his sweet and loving ways.
Nina Lane never ceases to
amaze me with her passionate tales, and I so enjoyed spending time with Gavin
and Mia. Sweet Time was fast-paced but did not lack any of this author's
trademark beautiful and descriptive writing style. There was an element of
angst woven into the story, which I wanted to explore further since I'm a
greedy reader who never wants to let go of a great story. I highly recommend
this series, as well as all of Nina's novels, as she is a remarkable
storyteller. As always, looking forward to more from the Family Stone.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this publication
A smile curved her mouth. She stretched one leg over him and
straddled his waist. With her nipples poking out of her bra, her skin flushed
and her hair a waterfall of gold, he could have stared at her for hours if he
weren’t about to implode with lust. He pinched her rosy nipples and twisted the
strap of her bra.
“Take this off,” he ordered. “I want you naked.”
She shed her bra, revealing her perfect round breasts. She braced
her hands on the mattress and leaned in to kiss him deeply, her tongue tracing
the line of his lips. He slid his hands down to grasp her ass, working one
finger between her cheeks. She inhaled sharply, but didn’t protest, arching her
back like she wanted more.
He’d give her more. And despite her willingness, it might be more
than she could handle. More than she could take.
“Wait,” she whispered, wiggling back so she was straddling his
thighs. “Where are the condoms?”
“Drawer in the nightstand.”
She reached over to retrieve one and took her sweet time sheathing
his dick. By the time she was done, his teeth were clenched from the light,
tickling touch of her fingers.
He grasped her hips. “Ride me.”
Mia bit her lip, a flush rising to her cheekbones. For a second he
thought she’d decline, but she lifted herself up, her hand circling the base of
his cock as she positioned herself.
Then she sank onto him, and the world exploded into the hot, tight
clench of her pussy, the sound of her low groan, the clench of her knees around
his hips. A flash of pain crossed her face before it was replaced with heavy
lust. Heat sizzled through the air. She curled her fingers into his chest and
started to move.
“Oh my God.” Her breath grew fast, her astonished gaze still
holding his. “I feel you so deep, all the way up here.”
She pressed one hand to her belly and shifted again, working her
gorgeous body up and down on his cock. He dug his fingers into her hips. His
jaw clenched to the point of pain. He fought the urge to thrust, to drive them
both to the edge. She was a fucking goddess, her tits bouncing, her body
flexing and writhing, sweat glistening on her skin.
“Faster.” He bit out the order, his blood on fire.
She leaned forward, her hair falling in curtains on either side of
her face, her little panting breaths puffing against his neck. Her eyes
darkened with hunger and urgency.
“I need it, Gavin,” she whispered, her teeth capturing her lower
lip again. “I need to come with you inside me, hard and deep and… oh God…”
“That’s right.” He grabbed her waist and thrust upward, needing to
be inside her as far as he could. “Get yourself off… Christ, you’re incredible,
all soft tight heat… you’re going to jerk me off, cover your little pussy with
my come…”
A shudder rocked through her. She braced her hands on his chest and
moved faster. Breathy cries came from her parted lips.
“I want you to do it first,” she gasped, sliding up and down his
cock like a well-oiled piston. “Mark me.”
She moved off him before he could stop her, her chest heaving as
she slid back to sit on his thighs. She rolled the condom off his erection and
stroked, her tapered fingers moving up and down his aching shaft, her thumb
caressing the swollen crown.
“Do it, Gavin.” Her voice was husky and threaded with anticipation.
“Come on my pussy. Give me everything you have.”
“Ah, shit.” Every part of him tensed. Fiery pressure built. He
gripped her smooth thighs and thrust into her fist. “So goddamned close… harder…
now… .fuck.”
Heat exploded through him, jets of come splashing over her belly.
She gasped, her fist still working his dick until the sensations ebbed. He
groaned, sinking against the pillows.
“That’s so fucking sexy,” she whispered, releasing him only to
slide her fingers through the mess coating her skin. “I love how you feel on
me.”
“Get yourself off for me.” He stroked his hands up and down her
smooth, damp thighs. “I want to watch you.”
Shivering, she slipped one hand between her legs and brought the
other to her breasts. She twisted her pink nipple and worked her fingers on her
clit. Much as he wanted to delve his fingers into her slippery heat again, he
restrained himself from reaching for her.
He couldn’t take his eyes off the sight of her touching herself,
her body sleek and soft. She threw her head back, her hair spilling over her
shoulders. Moaning, she moved her fingers more frantically, her body tensing
with need.
“Gavin,” she gasped. “I feel it… I still feel you… oh God, I’m
going to… ah!”
A high, keening cry broke from her throat as her body shook, her
hand still rubbing her clit. Fucking gorgeous sight, spearing him with fresh
lust.
“Oh fuck.” She groaned, collapsing on top of him in a hot, sweet
bundle of softness. “That was amazing. My ass is still sore from your hand, and
I swear that made me come even harder.”
He gave a short laugh. Yeah, he’d lost the battle all right. He was
about to lose the whole fucking war. And never before had he wanted to
surrender.
