Waking to Black

GENRE: Erotic Romance

BLURB:
He shattered my defenses, and I was fragile to begin with…
The first time I saw Adam Black, I was between the arms of a criminal, a gun to my throat and even then,
I knew I was staring at the most dangerous man in the room.
Maybe it was his confident, cerulean eyes, or the sex appeal radiating from his pores like heat waves
on a scorching day, but by proximity alone he made my vision blur and my heart stammer.
The day I was nearly killed in a bank hold-up, I began to live—because of him.
Now, I’m praying for the first time in years, hoping the scars of my past, the secrets I keep, don’t
interfere with my future…

Excerpt Two: “It must be difficult; constantly running away from anything remotely intimidating.”
It’s the dare in his voice that makes me turn my head, not the statement.
“Those are the words of someone who hasn’t gotten what they want.” Even as I’m speaking I know I’m the mouse in this cat and mouse game—I should walk away, but I can’t.
“What do you know about what I want?” He climbs the last step of the porch, his broad shoulders flexed.
Refusing to take the bait, I give him my back. Reaching for the door with my right hand, I’m halted by the strong pull of my left.
Before I can focus, his lips press against mine while his body traps me between him and the door. One of his hands runs over the curve of my waist while the other tangles in the curls of my hair, pulling on the strands and angling me so that he can have free reign. I moan, loving the possessive way he grips my body, and he takes the opportunity to dip his tongue inside my mouth. His taste is divine; it’s a heady mix of wine and passion. The remnants of my resistance melt as I meld against him, moving my hands over his stomach, and resting them on his belt buckle.
He pulls back with a quick nip to my bottom lip and my eyes pop open at the sudden jolt of pleasure-filled pain.
“Say you’ll do the mural,” he commands.
“Do you always get what you want?” I counter, gazing up at him from lowered lashes.
He rubs his cheek against mine so his lips hover over my ear.
“Persistence is a virtue.”
“I thought that was patience.”

Welcome to my internet haven!
I’m a born and bred Miami Girl—and proud of it! I would wear shorts and flip-flops everyday of the week
if I could. Growing up in Miami, surrounded by my parent’s heritage has made me proud of my Cuban
ancestry. Cafecito and a guava pastry for breakfast? Yes, please! Salsa music while I tidy the house?
Of course.

Of course.
If I’m not busy scribbling notes about the story pounding out of my head, I’m painting, listening to music,
or spending time with the love of my life—my son. If I decide to travel, I bring the whole family (in-laws
included), or at least I try to, because life is too short not to spend it with family; one of the many lessons
my father taught me.

ReplyDeleteThis book has a beautiful cover.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I love my cover. The artist is called Victoria Cooper and she is incredible. She allowed me the opportunity to search for a picture set I really liked and then listened to my suggestions on the incorporation of flowers. She was wonderful to work with and I highly recommend her. :)
DeleteThank you for the book
