BLURB:
A former
Hello Girl during WWI, widowed Ariel Pennybaker served her country proudly. She
now carries on her late husband’s legacy…a home for the many returning, injured
soldiers.
With her
year of mourning nearly at an end, she’s had enough of her self-imposed
celibacy. It’s time to get back in the game.
A chance
meeting with a handsome WWI aviator has her imagining thoroughly naughty
thoughts. When a second man walks into her life, her naughty thoughts turn
downright decadent. What better way to fulfil her fantasies than by sharing
both men’s beds.
As
tempting as the idea is, Ariel has a huge secret, one she must protect at all
costs. And, it’s possible one or both of her lovers is not what he seems.
EXCERPT:
“Retired or not, I see you still possess that
infamous flyboy charm.”
He shrugged, the lift of his shoulders drawing her attention
to their width and the way he held himself.
“Charming beautiful women was part of basic
training,” he quipped. “Right up there with learning how to fly an airplane.”
His cheeky answer set her senses on alert. “I would
think the flight instruction to be far more important than lessons on charm and
seduction.”
“When you get right down to it, they’re very
similar. It takes finesse to handle the throttle of a plane. You have to know
exactly how much pressure to put on the stick, how to maneuver the knobs, and
when to let the plane go on its own.”
The smooth tenor of his voice ratcheted her heart
rate up yet another notch. “Really?” she said, her breath catching in her
throat.
“There’s that one moment…when the plane is hanging
there in the sky. You’ve given her all the encouragement she can take, urged
her as far as she can go without breaking. Then, at just the right moment, she
bursts forth with a second wind, lurches forward, and bounds unfettered across
the bright blue sky.”
The sudden urge to fan herself had her clenching
her hands into fists and pressing them to her sides. “It must be exciting…the
flying, I mean.”
“As I said, not that different from seducing a
woman. Both take a light touch at first—a gentle stroke until they’re primed.
Followed by a more commanding hold, just before they reach the pinnacle of
their endurance.”
A low groan escaped her throat, drawing his
outright laugh.
“You make flying sound a lot like copulation,
Major. Surely, when you were up in the air defeating our enemies, your
attention was on something other than carnal activities.”
He leaned forward until his mouth hovered scant
millimeters from her ear. His warm breath fanned over her cheek. “It’s all
about a successful ending, Mrs. Pennybaker. Nothing prepares you for the climax
of a good dogfight or the climax of a purely sexual encounter. They should both
take your breath away.”
AUTHOR Bio and
Links:
Like
most authors, Nancy Fraser began writing at an early age, usually on the walls
and with crayons or, heaven forbid, permanent markers. Her love of writing
often made her the English teacher’s pet, which, of course, resulted in a whole
lot of teasing. Still, it was worth it.
Published
in multiple genres, Nancy currently writes for four publishers. She has
published twenty-two books in both full-length and novella format. Nancy is
currently working on a second fairy tale for Decadent Publishing.
When
not writing (which is almost never), Nancy dotes on her five beautiful
grandchildren and looks forward to traveling and reading when time permits.
Nancy lives in Atlantic Canada where she enjoys the relaxed pace and colorful
people.
