London Dreaming: The Rulefords book 2

Lucy and Matt hate each other--a surprisingly strong emotion for two people who've never even met. Unfortunately for both of them, that's about to change...

The smartest trophy wife in London is forcing Lucy and Matt to work together on a major charity event. At stake? Her husband’s business, which will make or break one of their respective banks.

Lucy is determined to keep his business at her family’s private bank. But Matt hasn’t climbed to CEO of his own bank without learning a few tricks along the way. As they battle for the business, their attempts to make the other look bad keep backfiring…and then the most unexpected thing happens.

They fall in love.

But Matt can’t let go of his hatred for her family--especially for her father. There’s a long history between them that he can’t just forgive and forget. And Lucy will never stay with a man who has set out to destroy her family.

This is book two in the Ruleford’s Series, but you don’t need to read London Falling to enjoy London Dreaming.

Excerpt from London Dreaming…

Together, they turned to walk up the gravel path toward the house. At the patio door, they both paused.

“I should give you back the blanket.” Because she held Cupcake’s leash in one hand, she unwound the throw with her other hand, but it was too heavy and slipped out of her fingers.

Reflexively, Matt stepped forward, bent and caught the fabric before it dropped to the ground. As he straightened, the blanket skimmed up her bare legs. Goosebumps chased the soft tickle of the throw.
She was intensely aware of the breeze as it swirled between their two bodies. The heat coming off his body in the cool night air. The slight stubble highlighting the strength in his jaw, and the way his eyes were focusing on her face.

He could kiss me.

The thought came out of nowhere.

As if he read her thoughts, his expression changed to one of intent. She stared at his lips, wondering how they would feel on her own. At the same time, her brain yelled she needed to walk away as fast as possible. But her body refused to move. His hand wove through her hair to pull her closer. She leaned in to him and closed her eyes.
