NEVER BEEN GOOD ~ CHRISTI BARTH --> EXCERPT & GIVEAWAY

Title: Never Been Good

Author: Christi Barth

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Never Been Good:

USA Today bestseller Christi Barth returns with another steamy Bad Boys Gone Good novel!

Flynn Maguire isn’t really a bad guy. Sure, he worked for the mob, but he ran a legitimate business—on paper anyway—and it paid enough to keep his brother out of the lifestyle.

Until they turned on him. Now he’s stuck in Witness Protection, tending bar in Nowheresville Oregon… and pissed the life he knew is gone. The only bright spot? Fantasizing about his quiet, secretive, beautiful coworker.

Sierra Williams is a woman on the run. All she wants now is to settle into small town life… and ignore the brooding, sexy bartender who can’t seem to take his eyes off her. Flynn’s bad-boy vibe pushes all her buttons, but Sierra fell for the wrong man once already. She can’t afford to let her guard down again. Except Flynn’s tough exterior is slowly melting away to reveal the sweet man beneath and their attraction is too strong to resist.

Sierra and Flynn are falling fast, but they’re both keeping so many secrets. The truth could ruin everything… unless a girl who’s a little bad is perfect for a guy who’s never really been good.

EXCERPT:

“All I want is a simple life. I never dreamed of being rich or traveling the world.” This moment, right here, with Flynn, was so much better than anything she’d ever dared to hope for. Because when you lived with nothing for so long, almost everything seemed out of reach and impossible to imagine. “I just want lots of happiness.”

His head cozied up against hers, lips brushing the top rim of her ear. “How about lots of kisses, too?”

“Oh, geez. You’re right. I don’t know how those slipped my mind . . .” Sierra wound her hand around the back of his neck to make sure he didn’t go anywhere. He clamped tighter the arm at her waist, pulling her back against a hard-on so impressive it made her gasp.

Flynn moved in on that gasp, capturing her mouth while it was still open. His tongue swooped in, tasting and licking and stroking the inside of her mouth.

But Sierra was ready. Ready for him. Primed by the happiness of being with him and the romance-drenched moment. So she shifted sideways and became the aggressor. Wrapped a leg around his like a vine up a marble column—because that’s how solid Flynn’s muscles felt—and twined to him with every possible appendage.

Her fingers wove through his hair. Her other hand boldly shot up his untucked black shirt to clutch at the warm skin of his back. Her tongue took over his mouth. It didn’t matter what was in his backpack picnic. What Sierra hungered for right now could only be assuaged by more Flynn. More heat. More pressure. More moans that melded with the music of the waves.

Suddenly her other foot left the ground as Flynn lifted her and spun them in slow circles. She tipped her head back for a second. Then she blinked at the handsome man grinning down at her. “What are you doing?”

“Feels like the earth is moving?”

Sierra nodded, already dizzy and more than a little kiss-drunk. But she didn’t want him to stop, either.

“I’m giving you a preview of what it’ll feel like when we have sex.”

She swallowed hard. “Oh.”

Flynn carried her closer to the water. He stood with his feet submerged, turned so that spray hit her cheeks from the suddenly gusty wind. “It’ll feel like this, too. Fierce. Inexorable.”

Sexy and smart. Was there any better combination?
