The new book Apprentice in Wonderland by Ramin Setoodeh is set to be published later this month, but shocking excerpts are already being released.

Among the details from former "Apprentice" winner Randall Pinkett is that the married Donald Trump wouldn't stop talking about how much he wanted to have sex with another contestant, Jennifer Murphy, The Nation reported.

Season 4 began on Sept. 22, 2005, eight months to the day that Trump married his third wife, Melania, and six months before she gave birth to their son.

Trump filmed the infamous "Access Hollywood" interview prior to the season's start. Trump was appearing as a guest star in an episode of "Days of Our Lives" at the time.

Murphy was a 26-year-old beauty queen at the time of the taping, and she spoke out about Trump's affection for her.

The new book reveals that Trump did more than give her the "little kiss" she previously talked about.

When she first met Trump, she felt that he was treating her like a protégée.

“I think he looked at me in a way like he does his daughter,” Murphy told the book's author. “But also, I did think he had the hots for me a bit.”

While she previously spoke about the "little kiss," now she says Trump also "invited her to his room at the Beverly Hills Hotel. She declined the invitation because he was married to his current wife, Melania," The Nation wrote.

“I have a conscience,” Murphy explained to Setoodeh, implying that the invitation was for sex. “I have integrity. I made up a reason I was busy."

However, Murphy's kiss with Trump happened when he was married.

A week after the infamous "Access Hollywood" tape was released, Murphy went on CNN to say that Trump kissed her without asking and she loved it.

Erin Burnett asked whether the kiss happened at Trump Tower, and Murphy attacked the media, saying it bothers her that she confessed, "I mentioned once, yes, he kissed me on the lips, but that's all they want to focus on. It was a small kiss. It was after he had fired me on The Apprentice."

She revealed in the interview that despite her string of losses on the show, Trump still wanted to hire her in his office.

"He called me the next day and said, 'I still want to give you an opportunity to work with me. I was very impressed with you," she said. "So, after several meetings and getting to know him more, he walked me to the elevator at one point and he did reach in and give me a little kiss. And I was a little surprised, but I wasn't offended. And I could have turned away..."

She went on to attack the media, saying that she gave long interviews where she sang Trump's praises, but after the Access Hollywood tape, all reporters wanted to know about was whether he kissed her.

Trump said in the hot-mic moment with "Access Hollywood" that he couldn't control himself and he would grab women and kiss them.

"And if you're a celebrity, they let you do it!" he bragged at the time.

It has been only a few weeks since actress and director Stormy Daniels described the moment that she had with Trump in a hotel room after he similarly asked her to "dinner" to talk about her appearance on The Apprentice.

She testified under oath in Trump's New York criminal trial that after using the bathroom, she came out to find Trump in his underwear, posing on the bed.

“I thought we were getting somewhere, we were talking, and I thought you were serious about what you wanted. If you ever want to get out of that trailer park," Trump told her, according to the testimony.

Still, Murphy told the author that she never considered Trump a predator.

“I think, if anything, he likes beautiful women too much—if that’s a flaw," she said.

She remained friends with Trump, she said, and when she got married, he gave her a discount so she could have the wedding at one of his properties.

Ironically, Trump joined her when she filmed a segment about her wedding for "Access Hollywood."

During the filming, Trump pulled her away and asked her why she was marrying the fiancé.

“He put his arm around me,” Murphy described to Setoodeh. “It was off camera. I think he smacked my butt a little. I was like, ‘Goodness gracious!’"

The book will be released on June 18, and Raw Story will have full coverage.
