Kade Read online

  Praise for Chase (Resisting Love #1)

  "The instant you start reading you catch the intrigue and then it just continues! These two new authors write magic together! You don't want to miss out! ~Jessy from BookEnd 2 BookEnd"

  Chase is gorgeous, brilliant, cocky, and a ladies’ man until he sees a girl at a party. All that snarkiness goes out the window for Chase to win the girl of his dreams. Taneesha from A Diary Of A Book Addict

  Layla had it made; moving in with 3 SMOKING HOT boy is every girls dream come true. Chase, Kade and James are soooo droolworthy. Chase and Layla are a great dynamic. Chase is so alpha male but Layla is just as strong. Kade and James are nothing short of major HOTTNESS. Nikki is the best friend that every girl needs and all of the hoes in the boys past (and some present) spice the story up in so many ways. I can’t wait to read Kade and hope James and Ryder get their own story too! – Sophie from Bridger Bitches Book Blog

  This book sucked me in, heart and soul, from beginning to end!! It's very well written and an extremely fast story and these authors are very good at capturing their readers and keeping us entertained!!! This is a MUST read ADULTS only book that will reel you in hook, line, and sinker!!! – Jenny from Black Words- White Pages

  I loved the writing style of this book, it was so easy to read and had me hooked from the first chapter, and I couldn’t put it down as I wanted to know what happened next. I loved how for Layla and Chase everything is tied up and done within the one book; it’s a nice refreshing change than having it dragged out to a series. – Alice Priday, Best Books.

  Prologue

  I’m at my usual hunting grounds. It’s a typical weekend for me, drinks, dancing- and looking for a little action. People may call me many things, or think certain things about me. Maybe they're right, but I couldn’t care less. Men get to do it, why shouldn’t women? We have our needs, too. One day I'll settle down, but until then I don’t see why I can’t have some fun. You only live once, right? I’m dancing, getting lost in the music, when I look over and see someone’s eyes on me. He's just what I’m looking for tonight, just my type. Longish wavy blonde hair, pale blue eyes and very tall, maybe 6’2 or so, with a lean, toned build. Fuck, he's gorgeous. He looks a little like Jax Teller from Sons of Anarchy. I know his type, and he's perfect for what I have in mind- a one night stand. No commitment, no drama, just a good time. He makes his way through the dancing bodies, his steps sure and purposeful. When he stops in front of me I almost forget to breathe. He really is something. Fuck, Nikki, don’t start being shy now. I shake my head, and give him a sultry smile. Time to get down to business.

  “Hello there, handsome, wanna fuck?” I purr boldly.

  His smile is cocky, knowing. “A girl who plays no games, I’m intrigued. Follow me.” He grabs my hand, making our way out of the club. We climb into his massive black car, a Hummer, I believe, and drive in silence to his house. I notice it’s a very nice house, modern, tasteful and very spacious.

  He jumps out of his car and quickly makes his way over to my side, but I’ve already hopped out. He frowns, his eyebrows furrowed. “I would have opened the door for you.”

  “That’s okay, handsome, but I’m a big girl. I can open my own door,” I say frankly.

  “Before we go any further, I’m Kade,” he says, and then looks at me, expecting me to give him my name.

  “I prefer to just call you handsome. We don’t need names tonight,” I answer him honestly.

  “You’re not gonna tell me your name?” he asks disbelievingly.

  “Nope, now are you gonna take me in there and fuck me or are we gonna stand here all night making small talk?”

  He hesitates for a moment before pulling me towards him and crashing our mouths together. We fumble to the front door and he unlocks it in between kisses. I’m herded down a hall and into his bedroom. I take a quick glance around and see a massive four poster bed, a chest of drawers and four huge mirrored sliding doors. Well, that makes things a little more interesting.

  We quickly undress ourselves, frantic to get into bed. I take in his body, which is amazing. In fact, I don’t think I’ve seen one like this outside of movies. He practically throws me on the bed and leans over me, pinning me down.

  “You are so fucking hot,” he mumbles in between rough kisses.

  He moves me up further on the bed, and goes to his bedside table to pull out a condom. He keeps his eyes connected to mine the whole time, even as he rips open the condom with his teeth. Once it’s on him, he leans back over me, and softly kisses my neck as he spreads my legs wider, and fills me. Holy fuck, his dick is huge. The whole time he is thrusting, he’s looking at me or kissing me. He never breaks our connection, and it doesn’t feel like any fucking I’ve ever had. This is different, more personal. We change positions and I get on top, but when he's about to finish he flips me onto my back. We come together, both panting when we're done. We wait for our breathing to even out, Kade keeping his arms wrapped around me, and rubbing circles on my stomach with his finger. I stare into the darkness of the room, not quite knowing what to think.

  We fall asleep afterwards. Well, he does. I’m not staying the night, even though he asked me to. Staying the night involves a certain amount of intimacy. When I hear him softly snore, that’s my cue to leave. I sneak out of the bed, the room, and then the house. Calling a cab, I wait outside for a few minutes before they show. I glance at the house once more as the cab reverses, and I can’t help but feel a pang of regret.

  Pushing the feeling away, I look forward.

  I’m still living at home, not ideal, but it’s close to my school and very convenient for me. My parents are pretty cool. They are older than most parents; they had me in their late thirties. They were both married to different people before. I don’t really know all the details about what happened to their first marriages, but I have a feeling they were together before they were both divorced. It was a love at first sight thing, or so I’m told.

  I’m in my room trying to figure out what to wear tonight. It’s another Friday night, and I want to go out and party. I haven’t been with anyone since that guy Kade, and I don’t understand why I can’t get him off my mind. There was just something about the way he looked at me, touched me, a
nd kissed me. It was like we didn’t just fuck... It was something more. I’m having a flashback of that night when my mum walks into the room.
