Back home in Seattle, Alyssa Jacobs - haunted by the thought of what could’ve been – buries herself in her work and finds herself realizing that she had what she wanted all along.

Excerpt
As soon as I was within reach, he reached out and linked his hands around my waist. I dropped my purse to the carpet and wrapped my arms around his neck. The warmth and comfort of his arms instantly relaxed me, my body leaning into his.
It was as if Aiden was exactly what I’d been needing, even when I had no idea I needed anyone.
He was more than that, though. He had always been more than a man I would spend time with, a man I slept with. It was deeper than that. I knew that the friendship between us would last even after the physical side of our relationship eventually stopped.
“Forgot how good you smell,” he replied, pulling his head back.
“And I forgot how good you are for me in all ways.”
“You’re good for a man’s ego, Aly,” he said with a grin and a squeeze of his arms. “Now, are you gonna make me stand out here all night, or are you going to invite me in?”
“Detective Lawrence,” I said in feigned shock, holding my hand over my heart. “Shouldn’t you be warning me against inviting strangers into my apartment?”
He pulled my body hard against his, dropping his lips first to my mouth then dragging them along my jaw before he stopped just below my ear. “I’ve been inside you more times than I can count, Aly, and I still can’t get enough of you. Doesn’t that tell you something?”
Every word he said, every stroke of his fingers on my hips as he said them, sent jolts of electricity through me. My breathing sped up and my heart raced. He always had that effect on me and in that moment—and the head space I was in—it was exactly what I needed.
I turned my head and ran my tongue around the curve of his ear before sucking his lobe between my lips and letting it go. “Wanna come inside, Detective Lawrence?” I rasped.
He stepped back and bent down to pick up his duffle bag and my discarded purse. “Thought you’d never ask.”
Review
*ARC provided by the author in exchange for an honest review
Taste is the second novella in a three part erotic series,
Sovereign. At the end of the first book, Touch, the mystery was commenced as
well as the sizzling chemistry between Alyssa Jacobs and Barrett Matthews.
Now being armed with some Intel she overheard, Alyssa
requests the help of her on/off hook up Aiden. It appears that the initial
relationship of Alyssa and Aiden is turning into something more but she still cannot
get Barrett out of her mind, more so when she finds out some startling facts about
the sexy man she met on a plane.
The mystery thickens more in this book with an extra touch
of angst thrown in. Alyssa finds herself not only fighting for her company but
fighting her conflicting feelings she has for both Aiden and Barrett. The
ending was another cliff hanger but the good thing about this series is that
the timespan in between each novella is minimal. Final episode will be in
February.
Another gripping short sexy read, with plenty of plot to
keep the reader engrossed. Four stars.
TOUCH, Sovereign Book One
It started on a plane, a first class connection that spilled over into a lustful date on a rooftop.
She's very open, he's intriguingly mysterious with wicked intentions, all of which she wants directed her way.
Can she trust that feeling of heady lust that leaves her aching for his touch, or is there more to it when it comes to Barrett "Bullseye" Matthews.
Touch is book one of a new three part romance serial from USA Today Bestselling Author B.J. Harvey.
FEEL, Sovereign Book 3
Part Three and the stunning conclusion to the Sovereign Series

I’m in love with two men. One came crashing into my life like a whirlwind, equal parts thrill and destruction. The other is like a calm sea, weathering the storm with me, offering me comfort and stability and promising to fight for me until the bitter end.
I have to make a decision. Who do I choose?
Barrett Matthews is a force to be reckoned with, and he has made it his mission to win me over.
Aiden Lawrence has had a piece of my heart from the very beginning and has never let me down.
Both men can make me happy; both men can keep me safe.
In the end, my heart will break whoever I choose.
My only hope is that I can survive the decision I make.
