Jacob Cutter, Time’s Most Eligible Bachelor in Tech, knows all about hard work. As CEO of KeyPads, a mobile technology firm, there’s always work to be done, even in his down time. He hasn’t had a free moment for dinner with his parents in months and forget dating– it’s a chore when women know your name and your net worth on sight. Jacob feels like he’s getting too old, too fast. What he needs is a break.

Franklin, his oldest friend and business partner, comes to the rescue with a plan to hit the white sands of Miami Beach to celebrate the New Year. After three days of partying with the guys, Jacob begs off of a beach bash and sets out in search of someone soft to spend the night in his arms.

He finds ‘her‘ in a Cuban dance club– alluring, interesting and mysterious. When she won’t reveal her name, the evening becomes a sexy round of cat and mouse. While she plays her hand, Jacob has a twist of his own in mind. Can they both win at this game?

Have you ever worked yourself so hard that you needed a break? No really, like a free weekend to travel and get your mind right. Well, Jacob sure did in this short story.

His best friend convinces him to join the boys on a trip to Miami for his birthday, which just happens to be New Years Day. Everyone knows the rep Miami has for being fast, loud, fun and mega sexy. It's just what Jacob needs.

After spending most of his vacay in a 'sausage fest' Jacob decides to break from the pack and go hunting for a little female companionship. He finds exactly that after bar surfing most of the night. He hits it off with a sexy Latina in a Cuban bar, but she is coy when it comes to telling him her name.

Back at his hotel, he still can't get her name out of her until, in the throes of passion, he stops and refuses to get her off until she gives up her name.

I wouldn't dare tell you how it ends. You'll
have to read the story to see if the hot mami gives up her name in exchange for an orgasm or not. This was a very cute short story.

Short & Enjoyable

This really was a short enjoyable story. It offered enough steam to keep me interested. And enough detail to satisfy my curiosity. I am already looking forward to reading another DL White short story.

The story had me from the first few pages. I liked the mystery in this couples connection. Additionally, the IR relationship wasn't flaunted like a prized peacock. Their story just flowed effortlessly. And the couples connection was steamy hot... A good read.
