Encore (Descendants of Ra Book 4) Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 33 ratings

Ridley Cross will stop at nothing to break her family curse—including enslaving an innocent man, EJ Nicolis. He doesn’t deserve it, but regardless of the consequences, she’ll use him as a means to an end. However, the more time she spends with EJ, the line between survival and passion blurs. Can she trust the man she has shamelessly used?

Trapped in a prison of his own flesh and bones, EJ Nicolis will kill the one who placed him there. No matter how much he hungers for her, he will resist her amethyst eyes, her pouty lips, and fiery soul when he wraps his hands around her slender, graceful neck and...

With evil at every turn, the Descendants of Ra are out to rescue their brother EJ—and make her pay—Ridley can’t afford to fall in love. The stakes are higher than her desires.
Greater than her needs.
More important than his life.
Or hers.

From the Author

I love creating character of every color. My characters come to me fully formed whether they are black or white. Love transcends race. Some of my romance novels are interracial stories. Most of my Plain Jane Series falls into that category. I hope you give all my love stories, contemporary and paranormal, a chance.

From the Inside Flap

"You're not gonna ask for my help? You're just gonna leave?" He wanted her to look him in the eye and tell him she was leaving, but she wouldn't.
"You've done more for me than I could ever ask. It's enough. I don't want to cost you anything else." He had her in his arms and up against the nearest wall before she took the next step. "What do you think you're doing?"
Her voice lacked any heat, any conviction to make EJ second guess his next move. So he went for it. He lifted her chin at the same time he dipped his head and captured her lips. Her mouth opened on a gasp, and his tongue slipped inside.
Holy... He groaned and lost himself in the slip and slide of her velvet tongue. She tasted like coffee and another drug he couldn't name--Sin? That's the word his brain stumbled upon. Ridley Cross was sin wrapped in a cream and amethyst package.
And he wanted more. He molded her against his body and deepened the kiss.
One second he had what he wanted in his arms, the next she was across the room, near the back door, inches away from escaping into the woods. Her chest rose and fell hard as if she'd run twenty-six miles instead of a few feet.
"Don't ever do that again." She panted and folded her arms under her small breasts, which drew attention to her firm nipples.
That wasn't what she said the last time. EJ stalked across the room. He moved slowly, giving her ample time to leave or stay. He stopped and took his time placing a hand on her hip and the other on her cheek. "Say it again. This time put your heart into it. Make me believe you don't want my mouth on your skin."
Ridley sucked in a sharp breath. "I can't sleep with you," she whispered all breathy and needy.
What he wanted to do to her didn't involve sleep.
Her damn curse. He got it, understood the limitations, and wouldn't cross the line. That didn't mean they couldn't flirt with that line, blur it a little. Only if she'd let him. It required a leap of faith and a truckload of trust. The question: Did she have it to give?
"All I want to do is kiss you. Touch you. See you."
Her cheeks pinkened to a lovely shade. "Why should I show you anything?" She side-eyed him, yet couldn't hide her interest.
Oh, he liked a challenge.

Hello Readers,

I love creating characters of every color. My characters come to me fully formed, whether they are black or white. Love transcends race. Some of my romance novels are interracial stories. Most of my Plain Jane Series falls into that category. I hope you give all my love stories, contemporary and paranormal, a chance.

I'm hooked on anything Star Trek, House of Dragons, Yellowstone, and Stranger Things. I can't get enough of these shows!

I was born in St. Thomas USVI, but grew up in The Bronx, New York, one mile from Yankee Stadium. I love SyFy, the History channels, and Asian cuisine. But my heart and stomach longs for anything from the Caribbean.

    Each one of these books are near impossible to put down once you've started reading it. Eagerly awaiting the next book.

    This should be read after all the previous books, to better understand where the storyline is at, and what the recurring characters are up to. EJ is caught up in Ridley's web, but there's a lot more to her tale of woe that will bring him to love her and champion her cause, against his family's wishes. I loved reading this book and I only have praises for the whole series so far!
