Onto this month’s ebook excerpt. And again, cuz I’m lazy, posting the info from the first month I ran the contest.
Okay, so I decided I’d try picking an ebook from my backlist to spotlight. The way this will work will be like the ebook-a-day giveaway~I’ll post an excerpt, if you’re interested in winning a download from my backlist, then all you need to do is post a comment in the thread. From the commenters, I’ll toss everybody’s name into a hat (or use randomizer.org) and draw one winner at random to win their choice of one title from my backlist.
In case you’re not familiar with my contests, you might want to take a look at my disclaimer page~contests are open to anybody & everybody, but I do limit entries to one per household.
The prize here is for an ebook. There are no substitutions. Also, please do not forward my contests onto sweepstakes sites. Thank you!
Today’s excerpt is from Her Wildest Dreams published from EC a few years ago…and FYI, this is erotic romance.
“Sorry,” Alex lied into the phone, closing his eyes and pressing his fingers against them. “I can’t, Mike. I’ve got too much going—”
“Alex, you have to,” Mike insisted. “Lori’s sick. I can’t leave her alone. Her mom’s out of town and I don’t know who the fuck else to call. It’s not like Allie has a whole list of friends to choose from.”
Grudgingly, and silently, he admitted Mike had a point. “What time is her flight?”
He jotted the details down. “If Lori gets to feeling better—”
“She has to stay in bed for the next three days, Alex. Doctor’s orders. And I’ve already called in for personal leave for tomorrow. Her mom will be home to stay with her after that, but she’s not going to be better in the next five hours, bro. It’s not like it’s going to take that long.”
“What’s the problem, anyway? It’s just Allie, for crying out loud. You pick up a couple of suitcases and take her home. And she won’t even talk your ear off,” Mike said, aggravated.
“The problem is I had things to do and I don’t feel like picking up your baby sister,” Alex snapped. I feel like fucking her every time I even hear her name. He grimaced and said, “Sorry. Look, it’s not a problem. I didn’t sleep well and I’m in a bitch of a mood. I’ll take care of it.”
Mike hung up on him.
Alex stood there, swearing silently and feeling his jeans grow tighter as he realized he didn’t have any choice.
He was going to be picking little Alison Ryan up from the airport in a couple of hours. He hadn’t seen her in six months, not in the flesh. But he had dreamed of her on a regular basis, and even the thought of seeing her, smelling her, was enough to have his cock standing at attention.
Okay.
Maybe this wasn’t a bad thing.
He’d see her, realize that night was a fluke.
And he could get on with his life. Every woman he had been with since Allie had paled in comparison. And it was getting to the point where he just wasn’t that interested in any of them.
Just her.
Contest is now over. Winner’s name to be posted in July. To avoid confusion, comments are now closed.
