“Business.”

And he was also extremely vague.

She had heard that about him.

Apparently, according to the rumors, he wasn’t much for talking, but when he did open his mouth, people usually dropped what they were doing to listen. She would probably drop everything just to listen to the deep rumble of his voice and that mouthwatering Texas drawl.

“Investor’s, right?”

Travis questioned her with a glance, cocking one eyebrow as he watched her.

“You’re here looking for an investor for the new resort?”

He still didn’t answer, but he smiled, and she was taken aback by his rugged masculinity. Those tall, dark and devastatingly handsome men seemed to do that to her.

“Are you interested in doing an exclusive on the resort?” he asked, cutting right to the point.

McKenna bit her lip, fighting the urge to jump up and down in excitement. She managed to hide her enthusiasm, instead looking at him skeptically she asked, “An exclusive?”

Another thing she had perfected... playing hard to get.

“If you’re not interested, I’d hate to waste your time.” The beginnings of another smile tipped his perfect lips and McKenna had a hard time listening to the words coming out of his mouth. She wondered if this is what happened to all women who came face to face with this man.

But, as much as she admired a pretty face, there was still only one man who had managed to intrigue her to the point of distraction in recent months. Travis Walker was definitely panty melting hot, but fortunately for her, her panties were fire retardant where he was concerned. Tag, on the other hand, was an entirely different story.

“I’m interested,” she said softly, but loud enough for him to hear. “In an exclusive,” she added on for good measure because the way his eyes swept down to her mouth spoke of things better left unexplored. “Did you have a timeframe in mind? From what I remember, you just recently broke ground.”

“Building is under way. As far as I’m concerned, the hard part is behind us. Let me buy you a drink, and we can work out the details.”

McKenna smiled at the sexy cowboy. How in the world could she resist that?

Chapter Five

“An exclusive? What the hell is that?” Luke’s face was a mask of confusion, but Tag saw the smile pulling at the edge of the other man’s mouth. Luke knew exactly what Tag was referring to, probably thanks to the conversation he had with his twin, Logan, moments before Tag arrived.

“She wants to do an article, or a series of them, on the club. Sensations, Inc. would have the privilege of using the information she obtains first for her online magazine.”

“So, what? She comes in here, walks through the halls and peeks in the rooms?” Luke looked serious now, and Tag knew the question he wasn’t asking.

“Yes. In a sense. I would restrict her to the private area on the second floor,” he said, feeling the need to clarify. If McKenna Thorne thought he was going to reveal all of their secrets, she was sadly mistaken.

“And I assume you’ll be the one taking her on this guided tour?” That hint of a smile was back, and this time it unnerved Tag slightly.

“I will.” Tag was all for taking her on the tour, but he had an entirely different idea for how this was going to work than he figured McKenna did.

It was an idea that he had given considerable thought to as a matter of fact.

Tag leaned back in his chair, watching while Luke pondered the information he had just been given. He seemed sincerely torn on whether or not he wanted to do this, which only made sense. Granted, had Tag come in here and suggested this to Luke McCoy a few months ago, he’d have been laughed right out the office, followed by a string of verbal obscenities that would probably make his ears bleed. That was before Luke’s entire personality had an overhaul. He knew the credit for that miraculous feat went to Tag’s step brother Cole and their lover, Sierra Sellers.

These days, it took quite a bit more to get the hard ass Luke McCoy riled up, although it was guaranteed to happen if anyone said anything cross about either Sierra or Cole. Luke was protective of those he loved, and even more so about his two lovers.

“Considering Susan is chomping at the bit to try and get someone to listen to her, I think that by allowing McKenna to write a few respectable articles about the club would only be in your best interest.”

“My best interest?” Luke grinned. “Why do I get this feeling that you’re getting something out of this deal?”

Well, there was that.

Tag smiled knowingly, and continued, “She’s looking to get enough information to provide legitimate, factual details to her readers. I figure what better way than to introduce her to some of the idiosyncrasies of some of the members. Namely me.”
