#MySexySaturday SEXIEST EYE CANDY snippet #Romance #Bloghop @MySexySaturday #Saturday7

This week I'm taking part in the My Sexy Saturday Blog Hop. The hop require participating authors to post 7 paragraphs, 7 sentences or 7 words from a WIP (work in progress) or published work. 

My snippet comes from my latest release Sexiest Eye Candy, a spicy contemporary romance set here in the UK. My hero--Ethan Stone--is a celebrity weight loss coach and my heroine--Karis Van de Burke--is a cosmetic surgeon. From the moment these two meet, things heat up.


Blurb

He’s so sexy he has the title to prove it!

Super-hunky, weight-loss celebrity Ethan Stone brings out Dr. Karis Van de Burke’s inner bad-girl. To prove it, when Ethan accepts the challenge to persuade the sassy, love-rejected cosmetic surgeon to appear as a guest on his show, she ends up inviting him into her bed for one night of guilty pleasure instead.

Used to women throwing themselves at him boobs first, Ethan knows his way around every female erogenous zone, but the sizzling chemistry he has with Karis blindsides him. Soon he’s convincing her to extend their one-night to another ... and another ... and...

Karis can’t resist! Yet, if Ethan discovers her secret, he’ll ditch her as fast as her ex-fiancé had -- but really, what could go wrong in a one-week, tangle-free, affair?


*~*~*

My 7 paragraph snippet is from the scene where Karis and Ethan see each other again after their one-night stand.



Ethan’s lips were a second from touching hers when she placed her fingers on her mouth creating a barrier and preventing the kiss he’d intended. “Hello, Ethan. Yes I did, thank you, but you really didn’t have to.”
“I wanted to.” He raised one brow. “What? No kiss hello? I thought we were friends.”
“Acquaintances.” She spoke from behind her fingers. Since Ethan hadn’t retreated, she didn’t dare remove the barrier between them.
“Ouch and there I was thinking we were slightly more than that.”
Heat crawled up the back of her neck. She fought to keep the embarrassed warmth from showing up in her face, offered him her right hand in a formal greeting to prove her point. “How nice to see you again.”
His smile was pure wickedness as he took her hand, leaned in the car, and kissed her cheek, his light stubble brushing her skin. A blast of electricity overcharged her body. Her breath stalled in her chest.
“Sweetheart.” The low rumble of his arousing voice vibrated next to her ear. “We can play games if you like, but I prefer the ones I know the rules to; the sort that has you moaning my name and begging me for more.”

#NewRelease SEXIEST EYE CANDY #Romance #Kindle

I have a New Release and it has a story. 

Sexiest Eye Candy was originally intended for the Mills & Boon Modern Romance (KISS) line, but half way through I changed my mind and pulled the partial from HMB slush pile. 


I mention this to give you and idea of the type of book Sexiest Eye Candy is. It's spicy--OK some readers have already told me HOT!--yet, simple, clean romance. There isn't a whole lot of external plot since the focus is on the internal issues and the romance. 

Looking for more plot? Why not try Zach's Rebound Girl?

If you enjoy Harlequin type romances, I think you'll enjoy Sexiest Eye Candy. However, if you don't like fluffy romance--which is predominately what I write--you might want to give this story a miss, I won't hold it against you ヅ.


My hero Ethan Stone is a successful TV weight-loss coach--a sexy celebrity. And this guy is so sexy he has the title to prove it. 


My heroine Karis Van de Burke is a talented cosmetic surgeon looking for that illusive "something" that's missing from her life.

Excerpt

Her expression guarded, she worked the tissue over his cheek with a light stroke, as if she was afraid to touch him. Yet she managed to make the deed feel more like a caress than a platonic chore. She may avoid meeting his gaze as she worked him over with the tissue, but he knew she was as aware as he of their sizzling chemistry.
He’d seen the flash of heat in her eyes just before his fan interrupted. By the time he’d dealt with the girl, Karis had erased every trace of desire from her face and had looked at him as though the thought of touching him repulsed her. So he’d pushed the issue for the hell of it, and forced her to do it anyway. He could have gone to the washroom to scrub off the lipstick, but he liked the idea of Karis performing the intimate task for him.
