Losing Enough 

(A Second Chances Novel #1)

by Helen Boswell

Publication date: April 30th 2014
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance

Synopsis:

When Alexis Lin heads to Sin City for the summer,

she wants nothing more than to dive into the clubs, spas, and concerts –

the benefits of her father’s high roller lifestyle.

On her first night in the city, Alexis gets into trouble at a club 

but walks away from it with the help of Connor Vincent.

Private security guard to the top gamblers, Connor is all charm with his clients, 

but he's the anti-Prince Charming when it comes to women.

Connor doesn’t have time for romance. He has his own problems to deal with,

 including his wild card of a brother who has come to town to collect on a past debt.

Alexis and Connor's unlikely chemistry heats things up as chance

again conspires to throw them together. The stakes become even higher 

when unexpected tragedy strikes Alexis’ family and when Connor’s brother

threatens to ruin the life that Connor has worked so hard to build.

To come out ahead of the game, Alexis must be brave enough to listen to her heart,

Connor must finally face up to his past, and both must decide how much they're willing to lose.

Sometimes risking your heart is the biggest gamble of all.

 

EXCERPT

 CONNOR

 

I move forward until I’m only inches away from her and she has to tilt up her head up to look at my face.

Her lips part, her cheeks reddening. It’s stupid, but I feel a sort of twisted sense of pride that I made the cool girl blush.

“I’m gonna kiss you, okay?”

“That’s not even a legitimate question,” she breathes.

“I know,” I say.

She drifts over to me, her leg brushing against mine, and the way she’s looking at me is like an open invitation. I move my hand through the water and find her, run my hand across her hip. Damn, her skin is so soft, her curves so sexy. I keep my touch light but really want to grab her and pull her over to me.

“So?” She challenges. “You going to kiss me or not?”

My mouth tilts up in a sideways smile. She’s fiery, and I like that. That’s why I originally came here looking for her, and this… this is just extra but now that the moment’s here, I want it. Hell, I think I need it. I thread my fingers through her hair, press my lips to hers and drink her up with a soft kiss. She moans against me, and that kills the soft for me. I take the kiss deeper, and fuck, how she responds, matching every stroke of my tongue with hers, her taste deliciously sweet, her fingers knotting hard in my hair before raking over my shoulders and down my back.

I want to get closer to her. Want it so fucking bad, but there’s too much water stirring between us. I slip my hands around her waist, and she pushes her body up against mine. We’re skin on skin, slick and hard against wet and soft. It’s like every touch of hers leaves a charge behind that electrifies and pulses through me. I’m rock hard, and my hand slides down to grab that gorgeous ass of hers as I grind against her.

A small sound of need escapes her throat, and I groan. I seriously consider carrying her out of the pool and finding an open room so we can continue this in private. Her room. Laundry room. Somewhere. Anywhere but here.

She breaks off the kiss, tilts her head back as I lean down to suck on the very sexy curve where her neck meets her shoulder. “My God,” she moans.

I smile against her skin. “Not yet I’m not.”
