Or will she become her own worst nightmare?Kipton's one year away from graduation. He's never thought beyond a one night stand until meeting his sister’s new roommate. Finally setting his sights on the girl he can't resist, he's more determined than ever when she won't give in to his persuasions. He's always gotten the girl, and he's not about to give up without a fight.

EXCERPT
Without another word spoken, her lips tangle with mine in the most
innocent way before our tongues eventually meet. She’s challenging
my body to either stay in control or break free. When her hands move
from my shoulders and glide down my back, I make a split second
decision and gently move over top of her, wedging my leg between
hers. She keeps her lips locked with mine while exploring with her
hands. “Off,” she mumbles against my mouth while tugging on my
shirt. Reaching behind my neck, I pull it over my head eager to see
what she plans to do next. She claws at the blankets between us,
trying to get rid of the barrier.
Helping her, I pull the comforter down so I can touch her body.
Sliding my hands under her shirt and over her stomach, she sucks in
her toned abs when I move to kiss the soft skin around her belly
button. Moaning softly, she gives me the confidence I need to
continue.
“Kipton,” she whispers.
I raise my head to look at her, but her eyes are closed. “Is this
okay, Sophie?” She nods her head but I need her words. “I need to
hear you, beautiful.”
“Yes, don’t stop.”
“Put your arms above your head.” She follows my direction and I
easily pull her shirt off. Left in her pink lace bra, I pull the
straps off her shoulders. Without removing it entirely, I inch the
lace away from her chest. Her back arches as she anticipates my next
move. Flicking her pebbled nipples with my tongue, she responds
instantly.
“Please, don’t’ make me wait. I need you, Kipton. Make me feel
something else – something good.”
“I’m right here, Sophie. You have me.” I don’t understand her
request entirely, but I give her what she wants anyway. We can
discuss her second request later. I reach my hand inside her yoga
pants and slip under the lace of her panties, touching her wetness.
“Sophie, shit.”
