A shocking tale of romance and deception, N.B. Baker’s Everything is an impressive debut that proves no secret is ever really buried. Ella Stone is struggling to pick up the pieces of her life. Abandoned by her parents when she was an infant, both of the grandparents who raised her are now gone. Facing her future for the first time, Ella decides to move to Detroit in order to be near her two best friends. After a misguided relationship with a man she finds in bed with another woman, Ella begins doubting her life-changing move. That is, until she meets Chance St. John. When Chance fends off a brutal attack, he and Ella share an instant connection. As the two get to know each other, their passionate exploits both in and out of the bedroom make way for a deeper connection for which neither one was quite prepared. But despite their increasing closeness, Ella can’t shake the feeling that Chance is hiding something from her. His frequent nightmares and skittish responses point to a secret in his past that haunts him still. While Ella attempts to uncover Chance’s mysterious past, her own life takes a turn for the strange. As Everything builds to its explosive climax, Ella must discover the truth before Chance’s dark past consumes them both.
Excerpt
“Ella,” the soft whisper caresses my ear. I can feel the heat from his breath
float across my skin. I feel Hunter’s hard length press into my backside. I tilt my head back so that he has better access to my neck. He plants soft kisses along the skin just below my ear, down my neck, and across my collarbone. His hand slides up under my shirt and cups my breast. He rolls my taught nipples between his fingers and pulls gently. A soft moan escapes my lips, and I reach behind me and palm his hard-on through his jeans. I can feel heat pulsing through my body as desire starts to build between my legs. I twist around, pull his face down to mine, and push my tongue into his mouth. I lift my hands over my head as Hunter pulls my shirt off and throws it to the ground. I reach up and run my hands across his muscular shoulders, over his chest, and down to grasp the button of his jeans.
He walks me backward and pushes me onto the feather-like softness of our bed. Slowly, he pulls my pants off and slides me gently to the center of the bed.
He grabs my legs and wraps them over his shoulders. He lowers his head right down into my pulsing heat, and the anticipation builds in my core.
He lifts his head; his dark-green eyes meet mine, and he says, “Your parents never wanted you, and neither do I.”
