#SEXYSNIPPETS~20~

Good morning and happy Sunday! So much goodness being shared to you in today's bloghop brought to you each week by the lovely Doris O'Connor. Today, I'm going to share a snippet from my latest release, Sex Is The Best Medicine. Last Wednesday I shared an anxious moment from Grant's point of view so today I wanted to lighten things up a bit and they are out on a dinner date... Enjoy!

“No way in hell would you ever catch me jumping off anything,” he said emphatically.

Kate laughed. “Well, it isn’t for everyone,” she agreed.

He placed his hand on her knee just under the hem of her short black skirt. “There are other things I’d like to do with you,” he said, voice low and husky. He traced small circles on her inner thigh. “To you.”

She sucked in a sharp breath and her knees opened a bit wider, allowing him greater access. Her eyes darkened in challenge. “Oh?”

“We can stay for dessert, or.” His hand slid higher, fingering the edge of lace that barred him from what he really wanted to taste.

Their waiter walked by and Kate grabbed his arm, halting him. “Check, please.”

BLURB

When adventurous and sexy becomes the most thrilling dare of all...

Conservative psychiatrist, Grant Anderson plays by the rules, believing he's in complete control of his own deep, dark compulsions. Just on the brink of making a life-altering decision, a minor accident lands him in the emergency room. Encountering the irresistible and outrageous Kate Sumner changes everything for the stuffy psychiatrist. Suddenly, the fun-loving, adventure-seeking nurse tempts Grant in ways he's never known, daring him to forgo all inhibitions and expectations. Will the doctor learn that pleasure is the world's best medicine?

MIDWEEK TEASE~20~

Happy MidWeek to you! This weekly bloghop is made possible by the lovely Angelica Dawson and we get to share a scene of a work in progress or published work. This week, I thought I'd share a piece from Sex Is The Best Medicine which is available now :)  In this scene, Grant is trying to get up the courage to tell Kate about his agoraphobia. Enjoy!

This was a mistake, being alone with her in her apartment, the voice taunted. Grant stared at Kate, struggling with his own haunted thoughts. Today had been a good day. It had been the reason why he’d finally gathered up the courage to approach her.

It is a good day. Please, he begged the voice. Let me enjoy her company without complications. One evening, that’s all I ask. One normal evening with my new neighbor. Please. Please. Please.

He sat there stiffly on the overstuffed couch. Tension filled his shoulders, his arms, and his jaw. When she came over and sat beside him offering him the glass of wine, he gripped the goblet tightly between the palms of both hands. Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

“Hey,” Kate said gently, placing her hand on his arm.

Immobilized, Grant sat there, unable to look her direction.

“Hey,” she repeated. “Look at me.”

Reluctantly, he met her eyes. The color appeared even darker in the early evening light that lingered through the large bay window that nearly took up an entire wall. He flexed his fingers around the glass in his hands. His composure was slipping and he was sure Kate knew it.

But how could he explain his erratic behavior to her without scaring her? Before he could get a handle on what to say, she broke the awkward silence between them.

“Grant,” she said softly. “We don’t have to do movie night. We don’t have to do anything that’s going to make you uncomfortable. In fact, I can make you a plate to take back to your place if you prefer.” She removed her hand from his arm.

“No!” he said, too quickly and just a touch too loudly. He winced. Grant inhaled deeply and turned on the couch to face her, setting his wine glass on the coffee table beside them.


“Please don’t kick me out, Kate.” His hands balled into fists on his lap, but he forced himself to continue. “There’s no place I’d rather be right now.”

#MIDWEEKTEASE~18~IT'S RELEASE DAY~HE HADN'T MEANT TO BE A COLD BASTARD...

Happy Release Day to Me! LOL Can you tell I'm excited? So on today's Midweek Tease, I'm going to share a scene from Sex Is The Best Medicine which is available now on Amazon ;) As always, a big THANKS to Angelica Dawson for putting together this weekly blog hop! In this tease, we get a glimpse into Grant's pain as he struggles with his inner demons. 

Grant stared after the bold woman as she left his apartment. After her audacious attention at the window earlier, he hadn’t been surprised to find her in his apartment. What had surprised him was that she’d been the very same nurse from the emergency room two weeks ago. Idly, he wondered if he’d told her she’d haunted his every waking moment and given him more wet dreams in the last 14 days then he’d had as a teenager if she’d finally be rendered speechless. He swiped the baseball cap off with one hand and adjusted his jeans with the other. Christ almighty, the woman was like a wind eddy swirling around picking up speed until you were caught in the middle.

Slowly, he closed the door and bolted the latch. She hadn’t exactly seen him at his worst, he mused. When she’d first called his name in the waiting room and taken him back to triage he’d been awash in old memories of the fateful car crash that had changed his life, his parent’s last breaths as they’d been dying in front of him, the sirens. It was as if he’d been transported back in time he could hear the howl of the wind and rain, the smell of gasoline and oil and the shouts of the emergency workers as they extricated his small body. And the pain… his six-year old self hadn’t understood. He’d hurt so fucking bad…

The fear had all but taken over when through the haze Kate had called his name. He’d hadn’t meant to be a cold bastard snapping answers to her questions at her like he was a Neanderthal, but he’d been about to completely lose his shit. All he could think about was home. Home was safety. Home was security. Home was where the monsters and demons of his damaged mind couldn’t touch him.

Blood rushed between his ears and sweat broke out along his brow. Grant slid to the floor and covered his face with his hands. Breathe, you dumb fuck, breathe.

That's all I have for now! I hope you enjoyed my tease! Don't forget to check out all the other great teases today!
