Enter a world of luxury, lust and love with this scorching first title in T L Swan’s provocative and witty Kingston Lane series. The first time I laid eyes on Henley James, I was mesmerized. The chemistry between us was like nothing I’d ever felt. Impeccable suit, dimpled smile. He was charming and gorgeous, sophisticated and suave. He gave me his business card and asked me to call. His dating game was strong; I was gone from his first smile. I’d love to tell you our date was a raging success, but it wasn’t. Far from it. I decided right there on that day that Henley James and I would forever be mortal enemies; I would never think of him again. Three years later, I bought my dream home. I’m so excited to meet my neighbors―that is, until I do. Oh no! What are the chances? It’s him. Still single, still the hottest man alive, and still obnoxiously sarcastic. He saunters around wearing next to nothing and refuses to close the blinds at night. I will not let myself think of him at all costs. It could be my sanity. My temptation is a nightmare.

A heat wave in Manhattan is enough to drive a girl crazy, and for Tracey Spadolini, a 24-year-old New York transplant who's been "left behind" for the summer, there's even more to sweat about. Her Slightly Significant Other, Will, will be returning from summer stock in September, to pick up where they left off. (Or will he?) But, in the days after Will's departure, Tracey decides it's time for a reality check.

So, Tracey, with the help of her friends and one very attentive guy, decides to spend her summer reinventing herself…and taking a chance on liking the new woman she becomes.

CHAPTER TWO 9:05 P.M. Josey lifted her blue eyes from the stopwatch she held.Looking toward her best friend Dean ,who was sitting in the driver's seat,she gave him a smile and a nod."Are you ready?" A mischievous grin spread across his face.He turned to stare down the road,hands rubbing the steering wheel restlessly.The car trembled underneath and all around them.He revved the engine with a tap to the gas pedal."Ready." Her gaze refocused on the road and her thumb clicked the switch."Go!" Dean jammed the gear into drive and slammed his foot on the gas pedal.Both of them were lurched back against their seats the same time the car leaped onto the road.Dirt and pebbles flew over the windshield.The tires marked the pavement in solid black trails,squealing as the car turned sharply out of the driveway. Josey gripped the safety handle on her door,fully aware her seatbelt wouldn't be able to control the wild jostles of the ride.She glanced briefly at the stopwatch and then returned her gaze to the windshield. Dean steered the black camaro onto the public road.Dirt flew from the tires when it skidded onto the fresh pavement.The city wasn't much farther now,and then the real fun would begin. "Two minutes,fifty seconds," Josey announced over the roar of the engine. "Let's see if we can make it across the tracks in ten." He grinned at her."Ready for that?" She gave him a stare."Are you?" Buildings rose up on either side of them.Lights danced crazily from the various offices and cars.The engine rumbled louder when Dean sped up ,weaving in and out of the traffic. He let out a holler of thrill and darted around a halting sedan.It beeped angrily behind them.Josey turned around in her seat,looking out the rear window in time to see the driver raise his hand in an angry gesture. "Whoa." She blinked at Dean."You're really ticking off the other drivers." "Don't pester me while I'm driving." His eyes were glued to the road.A light ahead turned red.He jumped into the right lane and turned the same time the other cars passed.A large semi carrying liquid nitrogen was honking at them from behind.It was starting to pull alongside,its right blinker going off. Josey winced when Dean slammed the brakes to avoid the truck as it slid in front of them.The sharp steel rippled their reflections back to them like a woman's vanity mirror. Dean let his foot off the gas for a second,turning the wheel so they got onto the freeway.Other cars were doing 50-60 mph.Dean was cranking his up to 100,laughing at the honks and beep-beeps of the angry drivers left behind. Sirens shrieked behind them.Josey looked over at her mirror.Her heart suddenly sank."Um,Dean...we have a problem." But he didn't have to ask what she meant.Red and blue lights bounced off of his sideview mirrors,and the shrill sound of the sirens was getting closer.He lowered his eyes,mouth turning somber."I see him." "Well,pull over.We can re-time this thing later." He gave her a look of confoundment,his eyes slanted as if to say,"Are you kidding me?" Josey ran a hand over her face and let out a moan."Oh,brother." Dean pushed harder on the gas pedal and the camaro sped faster along the freeway.One look at the speedometer told him it was handling beautifully.The engine spoke volumes underneath the hood,purring like a wildcat down the pavement. The cop car behind was struggling to keep up,dodging cars back and forth in attempt to keep them within sight."Pull over immediately," came a grouchy voice on the bullhorn."Do not make us resort to the full measure of the law." Dean laughed at Josey."Full measures,huh?" He turned over to the far right lane,keeping a watchful eye on the exit signs overhead. Josey glanced at the stopwatch."Five minutes forty-five seconds." She looked back up as he steered onto the exit ramp."Adjust the speed,Dean.We don't want to go barreling off this thing." He shifted in his seat and slowed down.One look in his sideview mirror let him k
