Sherelle Green - Nights Of Fantasy

Every wish will be fulfilled

Five seductive dates with gorgeous real estate mogul Jaleen Walker—Danni Allison can’t believe she said yes. At least spending time with the sexy playboy might stop her from dwelling on the momentous secret she carries. Revealing her background could cost Danni the beautiful life she’s built, along with a partnership in the Dupree sisters’ lingerie company. Yet with each passionate encounter, Jaleen proves his knack for anticipating her deepest longings. How long before he also discovers the truth she’s been desperately hiding?

From the moment he meets Danni, Jaleen knows that he wants her as more than just a friend. Although their physical connection is electric, emotionally she’s holding something back. And so is he... Will their five incredible nights together be long enough for them to stop keeping secrets...and start losing their hearts to each other forever?

“Has anyone ever told you that playing hard to get doesn’t work if a man loves to chase?”

“Who says I’m playing hard to get? You couldn’t get me even if you tried.” Normally, their banter went back and forth like this for hours, but today his silence caught her off guard. She turned toward him and placed her hands on her hips.

“What’s wrong, Walker? Cat got your tongue?” She would have said more, but the mischievous look in his eyes told her to stop while she was ahead.

“I can think of a lot of things I want to do with my tongue, and each and every one of those things would bring you the utmost satisfaction.”

She couldn’t help the hitch in her voice at his accusation. Apparently, she wasn’t thinking as quickly on her feet as she normally did. He glanced behind her before curling his hand around her waist and pulling her into a corner of the hallway. He leaned his forehead on hers in a way he never had before. The endearing gesture only made her breathing more staggered.

Dear Reader,

I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Jaleen Walker and Danni Allison!

You initially met Jaleen in my first novel (wow!), A Tempting Proposal, from my Elite Events series. Jaleen is better known as the jokester playboy and loyal sidekick. You met observant and feisty Danni Allison in Enticing Winter and have been able to get to know her throughout the Bare Sophistication series.

Surprisingly, I tried to pair Jaleen with several heroines in the Elite Events series, but it never felt right. When I decided to write the Bare Sophistication series, I immediately knew that Danni was his perfect match. Although both characters appear to have it all figured out, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

I received numerous emails and messages asking for Jaleen and Danni’s story, so I’m extremely excited for you all to join them on their journey!

Much love,

Sherelle

To my parents, Mary and Carl,

for always being my rocks and biggest supporters. Words can’t express how extremely grateful I am to have you both as parents. Even as a young girl, I knew my parents were special. Now I can’t help but admire you even more. You are the two most selfless people I know, and if it were in my power to do so, I’d give you the world! You are both role models to so many and you give so much to others without ever asking for anything in return. When I think about you both and try to find the words to explain you to others, the first adjective that constantly comes to mind is...exceptional. You’re exceptional individuals and the most hardworking people I know. Thank you for your unconditional love and encouragement.

To two people who mean the world to me—my sister, Nikki, and husband, Henry. There are times when you can’t control the factors that stand in the way of a deadline. Throughout writing this book, you both were my saving grace. Thank you for the endless conversations, awesome brainstorming sessions and words of encouragement. I’m not sure I could have completed this story without your love and support.

Prologue

Six months ago...

“If you want me to leave with you, you’ll have to kiss me first.”

Jaleen Walker glanced at his friends before setting his eyes on the woman who was making it extremely difficult to keep his distance. He’d arrived at the bar ten minutes prior, along with the other men celebrating his friend Aiden’s bachelor party.

When Aiden Chase had received a call from his soon-to-be wife, Summer Dupree, Jaleen’d watched Aiden’s face turn from excitement to concern when he learned his fiancée had had one too many fruity drinks. It had only taken a minute for Aiden to announce that he wanted to crash Summer’s bachelorette party.

Since Summer was like a little sister to Jaleen, he hadn’t argued with Aiden and had quickly informed the guys that the bachelor party was about to become coed. Jaleen hadn’t even known Aiden for an entire year, but the two had immediately hit it off when Summer had taken him to a holiday celebration last year.

Summer and Aiden were getting married in less than forty-eight hours and Jaleen couldn’t be happier for the both of them. It seemed like all of his friends were tying the knot and he’d been to more pre-and postwedding celebrations over the past few years than he could count.

Now that the men had arrived at the chic Miami lounge, they learned that Summer wasn’t the only one tipsy. Most of the women appeared to be feeling a buzz and dancing as if they didn’t have to get up in the morning for rehearsal. Reacting quickly, each husband, fiancé or boyfriend went to their significant other to join them on the dance floor, leaving only those unattached to watch the scene unfold.

“I’ll be right back,” Jaleen said to Danni, ignoring the way her lips curled into the perfect pout.
