- Beauty and the Beast meets Taming of the Shrew in this laugh-out-loud Regency romance that New York Times bestselling author Sarah MacLean calls “smart and sexy.”
“Oh yes.” She arched her back, as he loved first one and then the other. She began to rub the juncture of her legs against him under the water, and his strong fingers found her, opening her as she clutched him with her thighs.
“By the devil,” Cain murmured as he moved back to her lips. “I will never be able to resist ye.”
She kissed him and pulled back to smile wickedly. “Do not even try, Sinclair.”
He sank backward into the lake. The lift of the water flooded around her, and she felt his powerful shaft seek her.
“I do not want to hurt ye after loving ye all night.” He palmed the globes of her backside as he held her to him.
She reached down to stroke him where he hovered between her legs, making him groan, his eyes closing. The sound made her feel wild and powerful. She let her tongue slide inside his mouth, tasting and teasing. Trailing kisses to his ear, she touched the rim with her teeth gently. “I ache, Cain.

Clenching around him with her thighs and arms in the water, her nails digging into his shoulders, the fire grew within her.
His mouth lowered to suck again on her nipple, pulling it into his hot mouth, swirling his tongue around the sensitive peak, grazing it with his teeth. She gasped as the delicious suction spiraled sensation from their joining up through her entire body, piercing her soul. Panting, she whimpered as he worked on her below, making her body move faster against him as he lifted under her arse. “Yes, Cain! Oh God, yes!”
Head thrown back, Ella’s world shattered as the heat erupted within her, her muscles gripping him in waves of flaming passion.
“Ella, I want ye always.” His groan ripped through the stillness of the woods as he filled her. Ella wrapped her arms around his shoulders, clinging to his chest as they rode out the firestorm together.
