Synopsis:
Scandal.
Wealth. Power. Seduction. Welcome to the world of the O'Malleys.
Ex-cop Charlotte Finch used to think there was a
clear line between right and wrong. Then her fellow officers betrayed her, and
the world is no longer so black and white. Especially when it's Aiden O'Malley,
one of the most dangerous men in Boston, who offers her a chance for justice.
The only catch: she'll have to pretend to be his fiancée for his plan to work.
Aiden can't afford to let anyone see the man behind
the mask. To run the O'Malley empire, he has to be cool and controlled at all
times. But the moment he meets Charlie, they're playing with fire. Her
slightest touch is enough to send him over the edge. At first their
"engagement" was a way to eliminate his enemies. Now he'll do
whatever it takes to keep her safe-- even if he has to destroy his own family
to do it.

Undercover Attraction Excerpt
Copyright © 2017 Katee Robert
“Let’s get one thing clear—”
“One
thing? I have a goddamn list.”
He bracketed her throat, putting just
enough pressure there to stop her words. “Did you change your mind?”
She narrowed her eyes but didn’t try to
pretend she had no idea what he was talking about. “You play your game your
way. I’ll play it mine.”
Disobedient and willful to the very end.
He couldn’t decide if she was trying to provoke a response or if she was just
that opposed to being locked down in any way. In the end, it didn’t matter. “I
should bend you over this counter and fuck you into submission.”
“Don’t think for a second it would
work.” Charlie rolled her eyes. “And beyond that, we’re already going to be
late, so unless you’re looking for a quickie, fucking me in any way is out of
the question.”
The irrational side of him, which always
seemed to come into play around her, rose to demand he throw caution to the
wind and prove her wrong. He reined it in, but only barely. Every time she
pushed him, intentionally or not, he slid a little closer to the edge. It was
only a matter of time before he went over—and took her with him.
Aiden let go of her and stepped back. He
didn’t like the confusion on her face—or the flicker of hurt that rose as he
moved to the dresser across the room. For all her spikes, there was something
fragile about Charlie, and he’d have to be a special kind of bastard to want to
shatter her, no matter who her father was.
He opened the drawer at the bottom that
had been empty until a week ago. “Take off your panties.”
“I’m sorry, what?”
He gave her a look. “You heard me.”
“I’m waiting for you to explain.”
Aiden shook his head slowly. “There
aren’t two separate games—there’s only my
game. Either play along or deal with the consequences.” He picked an item
out of the drawer and held it up. “Here’s your first punishment.”
“I didn’t do anything wrong.” But her
eyes lit with interest at the small blue vibe in his hand.
He motioned her forward, giving her
plenty of time to tell him to go to hell.
But she didn’t.
Charlie moved to stand directly in front
of him. He lifted her dress to the tops of her thighs, bunching the shimmering
fabric. “Hold this,” he ordered.
“You are aggravating in the extreme.”
“So I’ve been told.” He pulled her
panties down to her thighs. It was tempting to kiss her there, but he forced
himself to stay on task. Aiden held the small vibe against her clit as he
shifted the lace back into place. It took a few seconds to maneuver it to
exactly where he wanted, but then he sat back on his heels. “You can let go
now.”
“This is an important night, Aiden.” She
shifted, a frown on her face. “We don’t have time for your sex games to
distract me.”
He pulled out his phone and brought up
the app he’d downloaded when he bought the sex toy. A flick of his finger and
her entire body tensed. Aiden didn’t bother to hide his satisfied smile. It
fell away when he touched his pocket and the little box it held. “One more
thing.”
“I swear to God, I draw the line at anal
plugs, so don’t even think about it.”
That surprised a laugh out of him. What
surprised him even more was how good it felt. When was the last time he’d
laughed freely in a way that wasn’t calculated?
Aiden couldn’t remember.
He stood and pulled out the ring box.
“I’d go down on one knee, but that isn’t the kind of relationship we have.”
“No, it’s not.” She looked a little
sick, but she held out her hand so he could slide the ring onto it. “Aiden,
it’s beautiful.”
“It was my grandmother’s.” It had taken
some shady work to figure out Charlie’s ring size after he’d first met her, so
that he could get the ring resized. He hadn’t told anyone about it. Though he’d
been as sure of her as he could be of a near-stranger, he hadn’t wanted to
admit the lengths he’d gone through, in case things didn’t pan out.
If anything, she looked even more
horrified. “I can’t wear your grandmother’s ring. It’s not right.”
“You have to. As oldest son and heir,
that ring rightfully belongs to my future wife. It would be more than a little
suspicious if I didn’t give it to
you.”
She touched the massive diamond. It was
in the same setting as when his grandfather had proposed, little rubies and
garnets surrounding the diamond, to represent colors in the O’Malley crest.
It felt a whole lot like he’d just
branded Charlie.
It didn’t bother him nearly as much as
it should.
Praise
for UNDERCOVER ATTRACTION
“Robert
(Forbidden Promises) combines strong chemistry, snappy plotting, and
imperfect yet appealing characters in her fifth O’Malley contemporary.”—Publishers Weekly on UNDERCOVER
ATTRACTION
“Imagine the erotic sensibility of Red Shoe Diaries expertly fused
with the ruthless power struggles that fueled The Sopranos and you have some idea of the flavor of
Robert’s RITA–nominated O’Malleys series. In the fifth installment, she doesn’t
pull any punches when it comes to the searing sensuality of the love scenes or
the brutal danger propelling the plot, thus delivering exactly the kind of
intense love story her readers crave.”—Booklist on UNDERCOVER ATTRACTION

About Katee Robert
New
York Times and USA
TODAY bestselling author Katee Robert learned to tell her stories at her
grandpa’s knee. Her 2015 title, The Marriage Contract, was a RITA finalist, and
RT Book Reviews named it 'a compulsively readable book with just the
right amount of suspense and tension." When not writing
sexy contemporary and romantic suspense, she spends her time playing imaginary
games with her children, driving her husband batty with what-if questions, and
planning for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.
