Every wish will be fulfilled
Five seductive dates with gorgeous real estate mogul Jaleen WalkerâDanni Allison canât 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 sheâs built, along with a partnership in the Dupree sistersâ lingerie company. Yet with each passionate encounter, Jaleen proves his knack for anticipating her deepest longings. How long before he also discovers the truth sheâs 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 sheâs 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?
âHas anyone ever told you that playing hard to get doesnât work if a man loves to chase?â
âWho says Iâm playing hard to get? You couldnât get me even if you tried.â 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.
âWhatâs wrong, Walker? Cat got your tongue?â She would have said more, but the mischievous look in his eyes told her to stop while she was ahead.
âI 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.â
She couldnât help the hitch in her voice at his accusation. Apparently, she wasnât 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 couldnât 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 couldnât be further from the truth.
I received numerous emails and messages asking for Jaleen and Danniâs story, so Iâm 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 canât 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 canât 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, Iâd 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. Youâre 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 meâmy sister, Nikki, and husband, Henry. There are times when you canât 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. Iâm not sure I could have completed this story without your love and support.
