Excerpt:

Damen, fully dressed, left the tiny chamber by stalking straight up to her and glaring at her, a knot in his jaw. If she backed up, she’d collide with the bed. His bed. Muscles low in her abdomen clenched tight. Confusion rocked her. What had happened to make her react to the man? She sidled away, circling toward the open shower door. He leaned in, his gaze holding hers. Rational thought evaporated. She stumbled into the sanitizer. “What aren’t you telling me?” he murmured, his gaze fixed on her mouth. The air left her lungs and she struggled to recall that she had no business hoping Damen would make good his implied threat to kiss her. Pressing her lips tight, trapped by his gaze, she nudged the button to activate the system. The door shut in his face.

RECIPE: Deviled Potato Bites

This is a plant-based, vegan, gluten free recipe. It doesn't look creepy, which bums me out, but with 'deviled' in the name, you can't go wrong. And these things are devilishly tasty.

You'll need to buy a pack of baby yellow potatoes. Rinse them, cover them with water in a pot and boil just until they're fork tender. I start checking at about 8 minutes. Once a fork pierces the largest potato easily, remove the potatoes from the heat and drain. Set aside.

Now for the 'deviled' part
