Just One Little Taste--Excerpt from Dragon Shattered

Dragon Shattered will be live on Amazon March 21st. I'm tired of waiting and want to share this story with you now! Yep, I'm that excited. I'm going to have to be patient, but it doesn't hurt to cheat just a little, right? 
All three applicants for the partnership position are qualified. They're all sexy. Ariana just can't choose between them, so she does the logical thing and spends time getting to know each of them. Here's a snippet of Ariana and Quentin that shows both who he is and why he makes such a good match for our kickass heroine.

She smiled just a little, the corner of her full, plum-colored lips turned up, and damn it was sexy. She took a step closer, and I wanted more than anything to touch her.
“And what makes you more qualified than Mr. Stonehall and Mr. Rouland?” she asked.
“This is the part where I’m supposed to skewer the competition, call them out on their faults while I make myself appear more qualified than I am,” I said. “But I’m not going to do that.”
Her brown eyes sparkled with interest.
“I have nothing but admiration and respect for Taylor and Slade. They have everything you asked for—heart, brawn, and brains—and they’re dedicated, hard workers. They’d make excellent partners. As for me,” I said. “I will give you everything that I am. I can show you the seventeen places around the property where our defenses are vulnerable. I can tell you that one of our new hires is already lusting after one of the maids here and, as you know, such an entanglement weakens our position. I can tell you about the background checks I’ve done on the caterer and that her brother has nearly bankrupted the company. No, she’s not necessarily going to steal from our client, but we should be aware of these things, plan for them. And I will spend every waking hour putting you first. Putting Whitesong first.”
With every word I spoke, she leaned closer and closer to me. Her breath touched my cheek. She smelled tart and sweet. ​
She placed her hand on my chest, and I held it there, allowed her to feel the beating sincerity of my heart, of the truth I spoke. She lowered her gaze, and leaned even closer. Her lips crashed against mine.
I let go of her hand to wrap my arms around her, crushing her chest to mine, feeling the mounds of her breasts against me. I tasted her lips with my tongue, and she parted her mouth so I could claim her further and show her, with my mouth, the feelings she stirred within me. Heat, warmth, sweetness. I trailed my lips down to her throat, tasting her skin, sensing her pulse beating rapidly. She moaned as I licked the line where her collar met her chest.
Her moan was caught by the breeze and stolen away, but it seemed to remind her of our position. She straightened in my arms and pulled back, licking her lips.
I let her go, feeling bereft.
“We should get back to the others,” she said. And just like that, the icy barrier was back in place. And just like that, she owned me, body and soul.
