Mine To Have
(Mine Series, Book #5)
by Cynthia Eden
New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Cynthia Eden continues her sexy “Mine” romantic suspense series with…MINE TO HAVE.
Is he a hero…or the villain?
When Elizabeth Ward sees Saxon Black rushing into the backroom of The Blade—a low end bar in Miami—she isn’t sure if he’s there to save the day…or just to raise some hell. But she’s being held hostage, and he’s her best hope of survival. Within minutes, she’s away from the jerks with the guns and riding fast and hard on the back of Saxon’s motorcycle.
Death stalks them.
Saxon has been working undercover for far too long. When he finds sexy Elizabeth—with a gun to her head—he knows he will do anything to keep her safe. But once he gets her away from her abductors, the threat to her isn’t over. Someone has put a price on Elizabeth’s head, and if Saxon can’t keep her safe from the danger stalking her, then she’ll be dead.
Their lives are both on the line.
As their enemies close in, Elizabeth and Saxon must go on the run. And the longer they are together, the hotter their attraction for one another seems to burn. Saxon vows not to let anyone hurt her, no matter what he has to do, because he’s falling fast for Elizabeth. He’ll stop the killers on her trail, and then he’ll have her. Forever.
MINE TO HAVE.

Excerpt
“You can let go now.” His voice was the deepest, darkest rumble she’d ever heard, and it
actually took a few seconds for his words to sink in.
When they did, she was horrified. Her hands flew away from him and she shot off
that motorcycle. A bad move, really, because her thighs were still shaking from the ride,
and Elizabeth hit the ground.
Smooth move.
She pushed up fast, though, and staggered to her feet. Elizabeth tossed away her
helmet and ran.
Unfortunately, she didn’t get far. A big, strong hand caught her shoulder and
spun her around. In the next breath, her back was being pushed into the nearby brick wall,
and Saxon had her hands pinned above her head. He held her easily, her wrists trapped in
one of his hands.
“Didn’t we cover this?” he muttered, and his voice, if possible, had gone even
deeper. “No screaming, no running—”
“No fighting,” she whispered back to him. “You said no...fighting. You never
said I couldn’t run.”
He laughed then. A sound that was as deep as his voice and sent shivers racing
over her body.
A man wasn’t supposed to laugh when a woman was terrified. She knew nothing
about the guy except for the fact that she’d seen him shoot two men and beat the crap out
of at least two more. And he’d said he...wanted her.
For an hour.
“Please, let me go.” Elizabeth wasn’t above begging, not then. She just wanted to
survive that night. To get back to her apartment and pretend this whole terrible nightmare
had never happened. “I won’t go to the police, I promise. I won’t tell them anything about
you.”
His head came closer to hers. She couldn’t discern much about him in that
moment, it was too dark, but she’d seen plenty in that terrible little room.
Saxon. He’d been huge, filling that doorway. He had to be at least six foot three,
and his shoulders had been so wide, his arms heavy with muscles. He wore a faded t-shirt
and loose jeans. He’d fought with a cold, vicious fury, and he hadn’t even broken a sweat
when he’d taken down his enemies.
I thought Kurt was scary. He’s nothing compared to this guy.
“I don’t want to let you go.”
Those words terrified her. No, he terrified her. He leaned even closer. She could
feel the light stir of his breath against her cheek. She had a flash of being tied in that chair
and looking up—and into a pair of dark and deadly eyes.
And I asked him for help? A desperate woman would do anything. And she was
desperate right then.
