Romance: the Tiger's Hired Mate: Bbw Tiger Shifter Romance Standalone (Spicy Shifters book 2)
“Tarran, I’m deeply sorry for my lateness, but I have an extremely good reason if you’ll let me explain.”
With glacial slowness, Tarran eased forward in his chair. His strong, tanned hands rested in front of him, fingers laced together. Amanda stopped speaking and stared at them, her throat gone bone dry. “You mind looking up at me please?” Joshua asked in a bored voice. “I spend a ridiculously large amount of money on grooming products to maintain my rugged but boyish meterosexual loo...k, so I trust I’m not far too hideous for you to gaze upon?”
Amanda squirmed in her seat, feeling very much like an errant schoolgirl in the Principle’s office. She lifted her eyes as instructed and stared directly across the desk at Tarran. Her eyes had become accustomed to the low lighting now, and she could make out his face a lot clearer. A chill went through her, which was not purely inspired by fear. Her boss was many things, but hideous was certainly not one of them. It was true he was rugged, with his broad handsome features and square jaw. His strong nose and full lips made him perfect pin-up material. A hint of blond stubble graced his chin and upper lip, and was complimented by his buzz cut, which was meticulously gelled and spiked. He exuded a masculinity that was almost intoxicating to her, but she could expect no less from a typical Alpha male. Yet, sometimes and very rarely, she glimpsed an undercurrent of vulnerability. She had first noticed it the day they met. It had only been a flash, more a suggestion than a quantifiable constant. He had been too busy playing the hotshot executive and flirting with Sabrina for it to be blatantly obvious, but it had been there nonetheless. Amanda had a talent for picking up the character traits people liked to keep hidden. It was a gift she had obtained from Aunt Debra.MoreLess
