About EXQUISITE TASTE:
He was a dare she couldn’t walk away from.
She was a game he was determined to win.
Jensen Stone was thriving in her first year of college. So thirsty for success she could already taste the achievements on her lips. Nothing would get in the way of her dreams, not even the social pressures of pledging. Until one night, she finds herself in the lion’s den of sorority row, accepting a dare she knew she couldn’t complete.
Damien Cross was bored. He no longer craved the dominance and control he had swirling in the palms of his powerful hands. He was determined to walk away from the empire he'd spent the last ten years building. What he didn’t factor in was the unexpected distraction. He might be angry at her inconvenient timing, but the urge to break the new toy dangling in front of him was all consuming. It wouldn’t hurt to play one last time.
One night. His rules.
Will she obey his demands to fulfill a dare?
Or will she realize his dark tastes are anything but exquisite?

First off I have to say that this book really took me on a roller coaster of a ride. I love a story where there is an age gap and the man is older because you know the main character is always going to learn something new and exciting! This is that story about two people who are destined to be someone and have worked their a$$ of to get to where they are and they will let nothing get in the way so when one of them is dared to do something out of the norm she takes the challenge and embraces it. I loved that about Jensen she had balls of steel to do what she did.
Then we have our other main character and lord help me I loved him. He was tough as nails but under all that tough exterior he was something special. It took him ten years to build his empire and when he reached his goal and was ready to look for something else in pops miss innocent Jensen and he has to have her. He has to show her what this life is like and what it can offer.
Watching the two of them grow together was amazing and I loved every minute of it. Even when Jensen was stubborn as a mule I loved her because she was willing to try new things and be open with Damien who she trusted with everything in her. this is a MUST MUST read for everyone! Oh and that ending that ending was AMAZING!
Excerpt:
Excerpt:
I
caress the bare flesh of her neck with my thumb, my voice dropping an octave.
“Tell me, what would you do if I pushed you against this door, pressed my lips
here…” I press into the spot just below her ear. “And stroke my tongue exactly
where your pulse is beating erratically?”
I
take a slow step toward her, closing the gap between us, and she retreats one
step back. “You know what that means?” I press harder over her vein. “The way
your heart rate has picked up? The way all five senses yell danger, yet your
endorphins are letting off a hormonal sensor that screams curiosity even
louder. You’re not one of those girls, but the fact that you haven’t bothered
to fight me off yet tells me you may want to be.”
Her
lips part and I get the sudden desire to shove my tongue inside her mouth. I
take another step forward and get the pleasure of her body pressed against
mine. I smile at her loss of confidence as she gasps, realizing her mistake.
She shuffles back, and I follow step for step until her back hits the door and
I have her cornered. My head dips and goose bumps rise over her skin beneath my
fingertips as my warm breath coasts along her flesh.
“I’ve
had my hand around your neck for over a minute and a half now,” I whisper
against her earlobe. “You haven’t even screamed for help, nor tried to fight me
off. Haven’t even shown a bit of defiance for someone who isn’t into ‘sick
petting shit.’” I end with my mouth a hairsbreadth from her neck, her pulse so
erratic, I almost feel the vibrations on my lips. Her breath quickens. If I
wanted to take this farther, she’d let me. No questions asked.
But
she’s far from what I need.
Jensen
tilts her head slightly to the side, allowing me better access to her neck, and
I release her. She stumbles back and falls limp against the door at my brute
action, but I don’t bother to help steady her. “As I said, no.” I take a step
to the side. “Goodnight, Ms. Jensen.” I reach for the door, enjoying the fire
that ignites in her emerald green eyes.
“You…asshole.”
My
grip tightens around the handle as my dick rages with need. Twice, she’s had
the nerve to speak to me with such a tongue. Her mouth pisses me off, but the
thought of punishing her for it turns me red hot.
I
need her gone.
I
throw the door open, and she jumps. “That I may be, pet, but I’m an asshole
who has no room for the plain likes of you. Just as you said, your unlikeliness
to survive one night in this club is the reason why applying would be nonsense.
Go home, back to your pampered life. Return to whoever allowed you to borrow
their dress, which looks horrendous on you, and forget about your silly dare.
You’ve wasted enough of my time. Out.”
My
words are harsh, but they do the job. I’ve driven her mute. If she’s smart,
she’ll stay that way and leave my office. At least read the cold look on my
face. No one, even a child like herself, insults me in my own club.
“You
can try to offend me all you want, I don’t give a shit. Trust me, you aren’t
anything to call home about either.”
I
laugh. “I’m deeply wounded, but I haven’t gotten to where I am by being nothing
to call home about.”
“Well,
you disgust me.” She crosses her arms over her chest, making her breasts more
appealing.
“Noted.
Out you go.” I place my hand on her back to help her out, but it gets shoved
off.
“Do
not touch me.”
Strike
three. My hand twitches, fighting off the need to grace her ass with a good
smack. Teach her a lesson for being so disobedient. “You’re really testing my
patience,” I grit out between clenched teeth. “I suggest you leave before I have
you escorted out by your hair.”
Her
mouth drops instantly. It wasn’t my intention to speak that harshly, but my
temper is at its breaking point. If I don’t get her out of my sight, I can’t be
responsible for what I might do.
“You
know what? With pleasure.” She turns and steps outside my office, spinning
back. “Have fun burning in hell, son of Satan.”
“I
most certainly will, Ms. Jensen.”
And
then my vision of her is cut off by the door slamming in her face. My heart
rate picks up, my hands at a small jitter. Lifting my palms, I wipe the stress
from my face and walk back to the mirrored window. After a few moments, I see
her storm through the crowd, then turn and lift her middle finger to the
window. I laugh at her courageousness—which is so unlike me. No one has
attempted to speak to me like that in a very long time.
Not
three minutes later, a knock sounds as the door opens. “Damien, the girl’s
being put in a cab.”
“Good.”
I turn away from the window and head toward my desk. “I want to know the location
of where she’s dropped off. Then I want to know everything about her.”
“Damien—”
Fredrick hesitates, trying to argue, but I cut him off.
“Everything.”
