A Good Book — Marie Medina

Charles has been single longer than he cares to think about, and he's grown accustomed to spending his evenings alone in his library. He doesn't realize how much he has missed having an intimate relationship with someone until his sister's best friend, Amanda, visits and tries to seduce him. Her intelligence and wit, combined with her beauty and charm, excite him so much he's too intimidated to act on the passion she stirs inside him. He says no to her initial advances and goes to bed alone, but he can't stop thinking about her. He wanted to act like a gentleman, but now he feels like a fool. As fantasies about her fill his dreams, he resolves to get her alone again and show her exactly what she's awakened in his body and his heart.
