Guess what I just did...

...thought some of you girls might want to see this.  It's just a matter of hours before the book is live on Amazon!

:D

For now, two more teasers... and the cover:

Teaser Two:

Before I can move or say a word, Stonehart is out of the chair and looming before me.  I brace myself for something—what, I don’t know—but what I get instead surpasses every expectation.

Stonehart puts one hand above my hip, tugs me into him, and kisses me fiercely.

The kiss is a mixture of molten lava and smoldering passion.  He hasn’t ever kissed me like this.  No one has.

Heat flows into me and the blood drains from my head as my body responds to him in the most natural way possible. Stonehart’s kiss consumes me, and I let it do so entirely.

When he finally lets go, my legs are shaky.  My lips are swollen from the assault.  And I can feel heat—palpable, scorching heat—radiating from my cheeks and neck and chest.

I’d mistaken the look in his eyes.  It wasn’t displeasure.  It was desire.


Teaser Three:

We sit down at an elevated table close to a massive window.  I can see the river below and the clear sky speckled with stars above.  If I were in even a slightly better mood, I would be in awe of the natural beauty.

Stonehart speaks to the waiter.  I don’t listen.  A glass of wine is set down before me.  With bitterness, I remember what happened the last time I accepted a drink at a restaurant with Jeremy Stonehart.

“So.”  Stonehart looks at me after the waiter leaves.  “This has been a very productive trip for us so far, wouldn’t you say?”

I glare across the table.  “I hate you,” I declare.

He chuckles.  “A reasonable claim.  But false, I think.”

“No,” I challenge.  “I really, really hate you.”

Stonehart smirks and leans back.  “You find me fascinating.”

“Don’t flatter yourself.”

“I don’t need to when you do it so well.  You’re curious, Lilly.  Inquisitive.  You want to know what makes me tick.  Put that psychology education to use.  Tell me what you see in me.  Your analysis on the ride here was quite compelling.”

“I don’t have to do anything of the sort,” I say.

“Oh, but you do, sweet Lilly.  Did you forget the terms of our Contract?”

And there it is again.  The Contract.  Of course it never disappeared.  It was just buried somewhere in the background.

“Fine.  You want to know what I think?  I think you’re manipulative and sadistic.  Everything you told me yesterday… the things you said after Rose and Charles left… those were all lies, weren’t they?  Meant to butter me up.  So that I would lower my guard and be vulnerable for the surprise you had in store for me today.  You…


[This scene continues, but the teaser ends here!]

Description:

I am mentally exhausted.  I am at my wit's end.  I am in the dark, again, with no end in sight.

But just when all hope seems lost, a light appears at the end of the tunnel.  A confession... that breaks me from the stranglehold of hopelessness and despair.  An admission... that brings new dimensions to the man who is shrouded in secrecy.  

Stonehart’s revelation can never change what he’s done to me.  But can it be enough to make a difference in how I see him?  As old questions are answered, new ones arise:

Is it possible for a man to change?

Is is possible for him to repent for all his sins?

And, perhaps most important of all:

Is it possible for me to forgive?
