Winner Takes All?
Workaholic event planner Imani Rayne needs to slow down or she’ll surely burn out before she reaches thirty. Fulfilling her beloved grandmother’s last wish could be the closure she needs. But purchasing a breathtaking lake-view estate in her Chicago hometown comes with one string attached. His name’s Daman Barker, and he’s bidding on the same property. Worse, Imani has to team up with Mr. Sexy And He Knows It to plan the gala of the year.
When Daman goes after something he wants, he usually gets it. And his latest venture is no exception. Only, this time he has a partner. Vibrant and savvy, Imani is arousing desire Daman knows he should resist. But when a family revelation threatens all that he cherishes most, Daman will risk everything to turn a business merger into a passionate union between two loving hearts.
Taking his hand, Imani pushed from the seat and lost her footing. Daman caught her by the elbow and pulled her into his embrace.
After she regained her balance, she remained in his arms, mere inches from his face. His eyes ventured to her glossy pink lips. He’d never noticed how great lipgloss looked on a woman before. He wanted to kiss her lips until there was no shine left. There was nothing sexier than a thoroughly kissed woman, and he could imagine that Imani’s lips looked even better after being kissed.
He felt her breath quicken as her eyes darted from his eyes to his mouth, as if mirroring his own thoughts. He wanted to kiss her, nibble on her lips. All he needed was one taste to feed his curiosity. He slowly eased her onto the desk to secure her balance. He kissed her neck, softly at first and then with a little tongue. She moaned in pleasure, grasping his head to keep him close. He didn’t want to only kiss her neck, he wanted more....

Dear Reader,
Meet Imani Rayne and the proud owners of Elite Events, Incorporated. I enjoyed writing Imani and Daman’s story. One of the key qualities I admire about Imani is her love and devotion to her family. While writing this fictional story, it was easy to reflect on the loss of my own grandmother—the inspiration behind Gamine. I have always been a firm believer in fate and predestined relationships. Through forces unbeknownst to them, Imani and Daman embark on the love of a lifetime and are able to let go of their pasts and embrace their future…together.
I hope you fall in love with Imani and Daman as I have. I’m currently working on the second and third installments in the Elite Events series. Cydney Rayne’s story is next. I love to hear from readers, so please feel free to contact me.
Much love,
Sherelle
To my grandmother Gladys, whose words of wisdom, language of encouragement and expressions of counsel inspired me to pen my thoughts for a book series. Your knowledge, faith and unconditional love reached out to the hearts of many.
You may be gone, but you’re in my heart forever and always.
May you keep shining down on us from Heaven.
To my loving and supportive family. You all are truly a blessing and I couldn’t imagine my life without each and every one of you.
