Cover Reveal:WIre ( Book #2 in her Pierce Securities series) by Anne Conley's




Title: WIRE

Series:Pierce Securities Book 2

Author:Anne Conley

Release Date: June 29th

Blurb:

Evan Rocco has been a hero to Paige Lawson for as long as she could remember.  So when

she runs into him in a bar after a major professional coup, she’s feeling celebratory and

reckless.  But it can’t go anywhere, because after all, he’s Evan Rocco.  When she finds her

gaming company in trouble, there’s only one man she can turn to.

Evan can’t get the woman who disappeared after their one­night­stand six months ago out of his

head.  He’d honestly thought there was more between them besides just sex—a connection

he’d never felt before.  When PSL, his favorite game software company is the victim of

sabotage, he jumps at the chance to help them solve the mystery behind The Crimson Lady, the

fan­made character who’s taking credit for murder.  Maybe it will get his mind off the woman of

his dreams.

When he realizes who the CEO of PSL actually is, he has to get over his own issues or else

he’ll put the one woman in danger he never wanted to hurt.

This is book two in the Pierce Securities series, a stand­alone story.  The first book, while not

necessary to read, is Craze.




Excerpt:

As usual, her voice came out husky and choked when she tried to speak to him. “I’ll see you first

thing Monday morning. Promise. But I can’t talk about this now.” She motioned to Emily, and

Evan nodded but didn’t move. Jeez, he was so close.

They made small talk, and Paige actually found herself flirting with him a little, relaxing, while

the line moved at a snail’s pace to the haunted house. She found out Travis was a neighbor

whose parents traveled a lot. Evan also told her things she already knew: he had a brother in

the Marines, his parents had retired to Montana to raise horses, lots of superficial stuff. She told

him about her father taking her to haunted houses when she was a kid while her scaredy cat

sister had stayed home with Mom. She mentioned her parents were dead, but didn’t give the

details. She couldn’t take her eyes off him. Dressed casually, he reminded her of the first time

they’d met. He wore a black t­shirt and worn jeans along with the oldest pair of Converse she’d

ever seen. His hair was mussed, as if he’d spent a long day at work, running his hands through

it like a crazed man. With her constant avoidance of him, he probably had. A pang of remorse

hit her hard. She hadn’t made this easy for him. It was time for her to step up and take

responsibility. She’d hired him to do a job, and she needed to get over her school­girl crush and

help him. But it was really hard with him staring at her like that.

She could always blame the teenagers for her inappropriate thoughts. They were walking,

talking, flirting hormones on legs. By the time they’d made it to the door, Travis had Emily’s

phone number and they’d already made a date and were holding hands. She was positive that if

she and Evan hadn’t been there they’d be making out. The teenagers that is, not them. Even

though she’d relaxed quite a bit, her heart was still letting her know he was standing awfully

close to her. They went in like a train, with Travis volunteering to lead. Emily hung on to his belt

loops followed by Paige. Bringing up the rear, one of Evan’s hands dropped protectively to her

back. She ignored the warmth trickling through her t­shirt at the contact. Her heart pounded and

her hands were clammy, but it wasn’t because of the fog, or the spooky lighting, or the clanging

noises, or the zombies jumping out. It was all Evan Rocco, holding onto her.

As far as haunted houses went, this one was disappointing, or maybe she just couldn’t get into it

with Evan’s breath on her neck, his hand at her waist, or his other hand snaking around her

torso. The further inside they went, the closer they got. Travis was at the front of the line,

jumping with every zombie clown that popped out, giving her ample warning of spooky things

ahead. By the halfway point, Evan’s arms were around her torso, with her own hands clutching

him while they walked in sync together, his hot breath on her neck warming her insides At one

particularly dark corner, Evan yanked her backward into an alcove, pushing her into the

darkness. He leaned his forehead on hers while his forearms leaned on the wall on either side

of her head, caging her in, keeping her from bolting. “You have any idea how many times I’ve

thought of this since April?” His body crowded her into the tiny, dark space while his minty

breath sent her senses reeling. “Haunted houses?” she offered weakly before his mouth met

hers.

It was suddenly as if the puzzle piece she lost six months ago had been put back into place, and

she melted into him as his tongue triumphed over the recesses of her mouth. He growled, a

predatory rumble emanating from his chest that reminded her of that night last April, and she

whimpered against him as he hauled her into his embrace, wrapping his arms around her

tightly. His tongue danced with hers, twining around inside her mouth while his hands roamed

her body, cupping her ass. She twirled her fingers in his hair, bringing his mouth closer, fusing it

with hers, unwilling to break this kiss which was rapidly undoing her—mind, body, and soul. As

her fingertips clutched desperately at his biceps, she marveled at how someone who was every

bit as geeky as she was could be so fucking beautiful, because Evan Rocco was a seriously

beautiful man. And this kiss was feral, something wild, causing her to throw caution to the wind

and go with it for as long as it lasted. Evan broke the kiss, leaning his forehead on hers again,

his dark brown eyes consuming her. “Paige,” he breathed out ragged gulps of air. “What the

fuck is happening?”
