An Eye for an Eye

A Victim of Circumstance

Katie Turner has no reason to trust men, especially not a merciless multi-millionaire like Zachary McIntyre who controls and manipulates situations with his vast wealth. But to her dismay, Zach feels her family has wronged him, and Katie is horrified when she suddenly becomes the pawn he’s determined to capture.

A Man on a Mission

Zach McIntyre wants Katie Turner for one reason. Restitution. He has a score to settle with the Turner family, and only one thing will make them even: Katie Turner, in his bed and at his mercy. He won’t be satisfied until he’s attained his goal, and he knows exactly the way he wants her. Under contract, under covers . . .

Under his Control

Excerpt:

Zachary ran his eyes over the girl in front of him. She wasn’t as young as his sister, and the two years difference in age was a very important two years. It was the difference between girl and almost-woman. He saw the hint of that in Katie’s eyes. She was already, undeniably beautiful. With her dark hair and slanted green eyes, she was beautiful in a sultry, exotic way.

Even though she was a decade younger than he was, he’d always been aware of her existence; he even had a vague memory of picking her up and taking her home when she’d hurt herself as a child. She’d been a pretty little girl even then.

But he’d first noticed Katie sexually only a few months before, when she began hanging around his little sister, about the same time that his wife began sleeping with Chris Turner. The cheating hadn’t been much of a secret around town, and he knew that this girl had known about the affair.

Zach admitted to himself that he had messed up feelings about Katie, even back then. Every time he’d seen Katie at his parents’ ranch house, he’d wanted to steal her away. All he could think about at the time was the fact that Chris Turner had stolen his wife, so didn’t it seem fair that Zach should have Katie? An eye for an eye, that was the way he looked at it.

But there was one thing that stood in Zach’s way from doing something stupid, something crazily impetuous. He hadn’t had a choice at the time; it had to stand in his way. Katie Turner was too young. And Zach had still been too angry. Livid with it. Even now, months later, he still couldn’t give Katie the benefit of the doubt. Maybe she was a nice, decent person, but he refused to consider it. All he could think about was the fact that she was a Turner. A female Turner, and one he wanted so badly it made thinking of anything else almost impossible. Yeah, the feelings he had for Katie were borderline insane and he knew it. She should be his. She should belong to him, because she was owed to him. And even though it was imperative that he let her grow up some first, someday it would happen. He’d bide his time because he’d have to, but one day, he’d feel her underneath him . . . at his mercy.
