Yesterday was a perfect example. I'm not one to check on my books daily. Once in a great while, I'll check out Amazon or Barnes & Noble to see if there are any reviews or comments left from a reader. With a free moment, I stopped by Amazon and was pleasantly surprised to see a 4 star rating on "Fleeing Beauty" with the following comment:
This book is full of twists and turns! Jamie has Malone look for some pieces her father hid before his death. Sparks end up flying between them and it is hot! Mystery, suspense, sex....what more could you ask for in a book?
That kind of feedback is what every author strives for. While I know it's impossible and unrealistic to try and please everyone, it's encouraging to get this kind of response. Occasionally I'll post an excerpt from the story. This seems like the perfect time to do so. The passage below packs a little heat, so be advised. I hope you enjoy it.
With
one arm around my waist, he held me close. I felt his other hand cup the back
of my head as he held me still, driving me crazy with a long, slow, wet kiss. I
was squirming on his lap with excitement now. And he knew exactly what he was
doing to me.
He released me head, drawing his hand
slowly down to my breast. I tipped my head back. He was licking and kissing my
throat. Electricity was running wild through my core. And then just as
suddenly, Malone was standing, holding me in his arms. This was no easy trick,
getting out of the clutches of the aunt. Without a word, he eased me down until
my feet touched the hard wood floor.
“Malone?”
“Hush, Jamie. I want you to do exactly
what I say.”
He stepped over and switched off the
light. For an instant I was nervous, until I saw the mischievous sparkle in his
eyes. Now he turned me around so that I was facing one arm of the sofa. Malone
guided me back to the cushions, only now I was kneeling with my back to
him. I could feel the stubble of his
beard lightly scratching my shoulders. He turned his head enough to inhale the
perfume I’d splashed on when changing. It wasn’t strong, but it lingered. I
felt a tingling sensation race down my arms as Malone’s hot breath warmed my
shoulder blades. He tugged the tank top. Now his lips were slowly moving down
the ladder of my spine. I couldn’t move.
Even if I wanted to.
A solitary fingertip lightly slid down
the back of my arm. He was barely touching me, but oh, baby, where he was
touching and how he was touching was setting me on fire. He shifted lower. I
felt the bottom of the tank top move up, exposing my stomach, the small of my
back and my ribs. I cried out in surprise when Malone nipped me with his teeth,
lightly grazing the spot on my back where my kidneys were. The fingertip
continued to graze my arm.
I felt his lips move back to my spine.
Now his tongue flicked out and danced the rest of the way down, pausing at the
waistband of my shorts. His fingertip was gone now, darting quickly in front to
undo my shorts. Somehow he shoved my shorts down until they were bunched up by
my knees. Then his fingernails were lightly scratching my legs from the hips to
the thighs while he continued to kiss the bottom of my spine. I was shaking.
Again I felt a fingertip glide across the back of my knee.
“Take me, Malone. I can’t stand it.”
“Soon, Jamie. Soon.”
“Now, Malone, please!”
I felt his palm squeeze my left calf. My
orgasm was building so intensely, I was afraid I was going to implode. His lips
danced across the cheeks of my ass. He nipped me again.
“Malone! You’re killing me!”
He pulled back for a heartbeat. Somehow
he managed to free himself from his jeans. I felt him press against me. I was
so wet, so aroused, I screamed when he entered me. My body was quivering, delightful
spasms causing my whole being to quake. Never before had I experienced
something so intense, so overpowering. And still he held me, driving me
forward, urging me on for more. I screamed again as he exploded inside me.
