BLURB:
Midwife Kerry
Mackenzie has tried to move on with her life to no avail. Her deceased
husband’s parents expect her to remain true to his memory. But at twenty-four,
Kerry’s too young to wear widow weeds for the rest of her life. Seeking
independence, she takes a job miles from home that will require her to move.
Things may have worked out as planned if she hadn’t gotten stranded on the way…
Ranch owner
Damian Greer happens upon Kerry perched alongside her disabled car on an
Amarillo highway. Coming from a family whose members move quickly when it comes
to love, the instant attraction he feels is no surprise. After observing her
during an emergency, he suspects she may be the woman for him.
When it appears
her car will be out of commission for a few days, Damian offers to drive Kerry
to Albuquerque to meet with her realtor. Can Damian convince her to abandon her
plan, and give them a chance?
EXCERPT:
He took her in his arms, and
within minutes, he had them spinning on the dance floor as if they’d
done it together for years.
Every time Damian turned her, he tugged her closer. The scent from the flower
in her hair combined with the light perfume she’d used was an aphrodisiac. He
slid his thigh between her legs and spun her halfway across the floor. Her
skirt billowed out, and her curls danced in the light of the lanterns. Kerry
threw her head back, her throat muscles moving as she laughed. He did some
different movements, and each time she followed him with ease. Her beautiful,
hazel eyes sparkled and her cheeks flushed a deep pink.
Was this how she would look
in the throes of passion?
The music reverberated
through his body, tightening his gut as the woman in his arms held him
captive. Her scent, her
feel, her softness. His gaze met hers, and her smile faltered as she searched
his face, questioning.
The band finished the
merengue and moved quickly and easily into a slow number. Damian cupped Kerry’s
face and lowered his head. His lips pressed against hers, and she slid her
palms up his chest to circle his neck. Slim fingers played with the hair at his
collar. He turned their fused bodies slowly in a circle and ravished her mouth.
He pressed against her lips with his tongue, seeking entrance. She opened,
granting him access to the sweetest nectar he’d ever tasted.
