About HONOR
A high school reunion is about to get down and dirty and a whole lot more complicated in this new romantic suspense from USA Today Bestselling Author Kennedy Layne.
Derek Spencer hadn't even bothered to RSVP to his Catfish Creek's high school reunion. He'd been too busy fighting a war in Afghanistan in his capacity as a Marine and wouldn't even be in the States during the event. Unfortunately, one emergency phone call from his mother changed everything.
Tessa Daniels had been voted most likely to do everything back in high school. She somehow didn't think that included acquiring her very own stalker at the relatively young age of twenty-eight. It had stopped being simply annoying after someone broke into her house, invading her privacy. Now, she was actually in fear for her life.
Derek's mother feels terrible that her son has spent almost every waking hour at the hospital, watching over his recovering father. She sets out--and succeeds--in arranging for Derek and Tessa to attend their high school reunion together. Neither one of them expected sparks to fly or memories of long-lost crushes to emerge, but they are not only faced with their newfound passion...they must also confront the person trying to extinguish their chance to rekindle the flames of past desires.

Read an Excerpt from HONOR
Derek had every intention of walking out of
Tessa’s house and being the gentleman he’d been raised to be, keeping the
promise he’d made to himself not to get too involved in her personal affairs
only to end up having to walk away from her.
He’d known earlier this evening that she
was different from the rest. He’d reminded himself over and over that he had
one more year before he had to make another decision that
would affect the next four years of his life. He’d told himself that he would
see to it that she was safe in her home, maybe even put a call in to the police
about having them do patrol sweeps through the area. He couldn’t leave her
unprotected, but he also had a duty to protect himself from damaging his heart.
Now?
Tessa’s supple curves against his body and
her lips inches from his made leaving difficult. Hell, she made it all but
impossible.
Derek wrapped an arm around her waist and
eased her toward him, not stopping until the only thing that separated them
were the clothes on their bodies. He captured her lips, unable to get enough of
her. The sweet taste of sugar and cream made him think that the addictive taste
had nothing to do with her tea and everything to do with the fact that she was
a hypnotic aphrodisiac. He no longer cared what tomorrow would bring. They were
living in the moment.
Tessa used his body as leverage as she
raised herself higher onto her tiptoes to deepen their kiss. She didn’t have to
worry, because he didn’t intend on stopping anytime soon. He easily hoisted her
up so that her long legs were wrapped around his waist, already accepting that
they weren’t going to make it to her bedroom…at least for the first round.
Derek sidestepped the coffee table until
they both toppled onto the couch. He pulled his lips from hers so that he could
see for himself that she understood the ground rules that she’d already put
into place. He ignored the fact that he was repeating her words for his sake
only.
“For tonight then.”
“Agreed,” Tessa said breathlessly, already
reaching for the unfastened bowtie hanging around his neck. She gradually slid
the material out from under his lapel, never once breaking eye contact. “So
make it your best effort, Derek.”
Tessa’s challenge was a reckless streak of
provocation that immediately raised the heat level. He couldn’t resist leaning
down and running his tongue across her lower lip, only to then nip it with his
teeth. She still had her legs wrapped around him with apparently no intention
of letting him go. He had other plans though. He’d become rigid as a board the
moment she’d whispered the word stay.
Derek leaned up and all but forced her to
relax her hold on him. She was taking in every move he made. She’d already
removed his bowtie, so unfastening the rest of the buttons on his shirt was
done with ease. Everything she felt was displayed across her beautiful features
and he had to question on whether the desire burning within those baby blues of
hers could literally light a fire in something other than his soul.
