Book Excerpt
His
stormy, blue eyes scanned her systematically from her flip-flops, up her bare
legs, over her shorts, lingering on her chest before stopping at her eyes. “You
were late.”
“Yes,
sir. I was.” Warmth sluiced over her flesh like a gentle caress from his
visual inspection. She wasn’t getting involved with him. It wasn’t her fault he
was grouchy. Whatever got him in his mood, she didn’t need to deal with it
right now.
Avoiding
any contact with Eric, she walked to the door to leave.
Both men
followed her.
“So how
did it go?” Genuine curiosity underlined Eric’s bored tone. He slipped in front
of her and opened the door to the hallway with the elevator, crowding her so
she had to walk closer to him.
“Fine.”
She walked straight through the open elevator doors and pressed the lobby
button on the shiny pewter panel, hoping he’d end the inquisition. She lowered
her eyes to the marble floor.
“Allergies?”
His black, Italian leather shoes came into view as he stepped into the elevator
beside her.
“Not that
I’m aware of.”
Her body
hummed and surged with desire being so close to him. Doctor Hotness had nothing
on Eric. Eric was a freaking erupting volcano and she wanted him to erupt in
her. Dang, she wanted him so badly. She didn’t want to go and buy a vibrator
when everything inside screamed for him to be the one to give her that first
orgasm and more.
The doors
to the elevator closed, leaving her alone with the man she wanted to add to her
Horse List.
The heat
of his body encroached on her personal space. His fingers brushed an errant lock
of wet hair that fell from her braid behind her ear. He leaned in, closing his
hands around her hips as she backed up against the wall. His lips pressed
softly against her ear, sending a shiver through her, curling her toes. “Ava,
are you single, available, unattached?”
“Divorced,”
she squeaked out.
The
elevator doors opened, but he held her there, his hands on her hips, his lips
on her ear. “Good.” He sucked in the lobe of her ear. “You’ve earned a reward,
Ava.” His strong hands tightened on her hips.
She
moaned as everything wrong in her life faded into the background. She was in
Eric’s world imagining those masculine hands lifting her up, slipping beneath
her pants and... Crap. She was not doing that. She didn’t need a man
screwing with her head again. Her hands trembled as she covered his hands with
her own. “Not happening, Mr. North.”
About the Book
Title: The Horse List
Author: Anna Lores
Genre: Erotic Romance / Romantic Suspense
Recently divorced from an abusive
husband still intent to control her, Ava Black has two weeks before she
moves back to her conservative hometown.
Encouraged by her best friend, she
resurrects the wish list she started as a young girl when her number one
desire was her very own horse. Over the years, The Horse List had
become a mature list of her most erotic fantasies and a symbol of her
rebirth as an independent woman. She can complete some of the items
alone, but not everything. She needs an experienced partner with
resources and the connections to places she’s only dreamed of going.
Could the handsome and wealthy artist Eric North be the partner she
seeks? Will her drive to complete the list be enough to overcome her
fear of him discovering the scars left from years of abuse? Will Eric
protect her from her ex-husband, or will she go home to start over and
give up her one chance to complete The Horse List?Author Bio
Anna started writing romance as a
by-product of insomnia. After a year of late night reading,
she borrowed her son’s laptop after he went to bed each night, and set
about breathing life to her very own characters. After a month of
writing in the middle of the night, she was surprised with a new laptop
of her own to pursue her dreams. With a B.A. in English Literature and a
desire to fill her world with wonderful stories she and her close
friends could not just talk about, but gush over, she shed her job as
mom of three in the late night hours and assumed her alter ego of dirty
girl.
