Faith’s Temptation (Dueling Dragons MC Book 1) Read Online Free Page A

standin’ in front of me. He is the most tantalizing thing I have ever seen, and he’s built from head to toe. Long brown hair is pulled in a braid that flows down his back. Dark, piercing brown eyes look down at me. His jawline strong and chiseled, he looks like a Greek god that’s been dipped in ink from head to toe.
    Overcome with the urge to touch him, I step back and finish giving him a onceover. He is wearing a loosely fitted pair of jeans with a band t-shirt that says “ Ozzy Osbourne .” The shirt is stretched enough so I can make out the muscles of his arms. Tattoos peek out from the sleeve of his shirt.
    Holy shit! I am in love! Focus, Faith! Stay focused!
    What I wouldn’t give to run my palm over his chest. He’s so fuckin’ hot, quite literally.
    “Hello,” I hear a deep voice say as a hand waves in front of my face. He’s looking down at me with a raised eyebrow and a dimple just to the left of his mouth. If I wasn’t struggling to find my footing before, I certainly am now.
    I shake my head in surprise. “Yeah. Hi, I’m Faith,” I manage to get out. Not really sure of what he said before that, but at this point I’ll bark if he asks me to.
    He starts to laugh. “Well, again, I didn’t ask your name. But okay. And I’m Ryder.” He smiles at me.
    God, that smile. That smile is going to be burned into my brain for the rest of my life. He is so amazing looking, he is like every woman’s temptation and wildest dream wrapped in one.
    “Well, shit.” He chuckles. “Didn’t anyone ever tell you not to read and walk at the same time?” Then with a serious tone, he adds, “You remind me of this girl from yesterday. She walked right into the road. Didn’t even look to see if cars were coming or anything.”
    Wait a minute. He was in the truck that almost killed me! Do I say something to him about it being me, or do I keep my mouth shut? I bite my lip and decide on the latter approach.
    “Prez, ya comin’?”
    Looking over I see a tall, built man with a shaved head and a beard that touches his chest. Tattoos cover his arms and neck. His body language is sending off the vibe that he’s sexy and he knows it. He is very attractive, I might add, but nothing like his friend standing in front of me.
    “Yeah, Zig. I’ll be right there,” he says.
    “Well, I guess I’ll see you around,” I say as I try and push past him, but he steps closer and whispers into my ear.
    “I think you should stick around for a little while. I would love to get to know you. You can run into me any day of the week.” He breathes into my ear, sending a current to that little bundle of nerves in between my legs. Instantly, I feel the goose bumps and a quivering need.
    My brothers and Daddy didn’t raise a fool, and the last thing I need to do is give in to this temptation and find myself in a whole different world of trouble. “Uh, no, thank you!”
    “You’ll give in, babe. I promise that you’ll be mine at some point, and you’ll love it.” He licks his lip, giving it a small bite as he says, “love it,” making his sex appeal that much more tempting.
    This man is going to be a thorn in my side, I can see it already.
    Those eyes. God, his lips, I sigh to myself. His tattoos, his arms…What I wouldn’t give to feel them wrapped around me. After texting Nate to tell him that I have an interview and possible job—of course only getting an “Okay” text message back from him—I find my thoughts flood with nothing but him. He is every girl’s dream. The untouchable, the type of guy that screams “bad boy.” Sex appeal radiates from his body, fulfilling every girl’s fantasy just by walking by.
    Putting my pen up to my lips, I start to think of his lips again. His lips all over my body, kissing my neck, biting my ear. Oh, maybe even kissing his way down my…
    Buzz.
    I jump halfway off the bench I am sitting on and look down to see my phone vibrating. Seeing the screen flash Beau’s picture, I roll my
