Outrageous: A Quantum Novel - Paperback

by Marie Force (Author)

She drives him crazy in more ways than one.

Leah

Every time I see Quantum Production's chief counsel, Emmett Burke, at work, the only thing I can think about is how much I want to lick him. Everywhere. I've never had that reaction to a man, and the fact that he's a much-older colleague makes my out-of-control attraction to him far more complicated than it should be. Every day, I bring a new legal question to Emmett, hoping to catch his attention and make him see me as a grown woman who wants him desperately. I walk a fine line in trying to remain professional as the assistant to superstar Marlowe Sloane while lusting after Marlowe's sexy attorney.

Emmett

She's like a fly buzzing around my head that can't be swatted away. She's always there, looking at me, asking me legal questions that have nothing to do with my specialty in entertainment law and generally driving me mad with her overt sexiness and sassy mouth. I want to toss her over my desk and run the sass right out of her, which is hardly the way a professional who loves his job should behave in the office-especially with a young, fresh, sexy colleague. Hell, I drafted the rule against interoffice fraternization!

Leah gets the chance to step up for Emmett, helping him through an unfortunate "accident," showing him she's much more than just a smart mouth and a sexy body. When she realizes she has genuine feelings for him-and that those feelings are reciprocated-she wonders if he'll take a chance on her or continue to hold her at arm's length. Slowly but surely, she chips away at his resistance, and he begins to crave more of her.

As Leah confronts a dangerous threat from her past, Emmett is forced to acknowledge that his "annoying little fly" has worked her way firmly into his heart-and his bed. Join the entire Quantum team at the company's vineyard in Napa for Hayden and Addie's wedding, when things take a serious turn for Leah and Emmett.
