The Billionaire's Devotion

(Excerpt—) Their faces were still inches apart, breaths entangling. Instead of her lips, he kissed her on the cheek before pulling away to look at her. She wasn't looking at him anymore. She had trained her eyes on the view outside the window. "We could try again," Jacob said. "I don't know what you want from me." Sutton replied in a quiet voice. "I'll keep my word this time around.

Jacob Mackay

She still had him tied in knots, and he wasn't ready to get rid of these feelings yet. She came into his life and brought warmth to his icy heart. It was their wedding night. Jacob couldn't wait to get his hands on his woman.

"Hey," she greeted, finally noticing him. Jacob sucked in some breath at the smile she flashed him. There was a tightening in his chest. But it wasn't a vicious grip. It was like the blood vessels surrounding his heart were constricting to pump more blood.
