'Past Regrets (Love and Friendship Book 2)' by Shelley Munro

Past Regrets

by Shelley Munro

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

Never look back…unless that’s where your heart belongs.

Love and Friendship, Book 2

Julia Maxwell was a seize-the-moment party girl until the night she spent with up-and-coming rocker Ryan Callander. From that moment, she was a one-man woman. Pity he hasn’t kept with the program.

Tired of the secrets that have kept her out of the press and Ryan’s fans happy, angry with mounting evidence of infidelity, Julia is older, wiser, and determined to divorce his cheatin’ ass.

Ryan’s long European tour had more than its share of hard knocks—one of which landed on his head when he was mugged. Divorce papers waiting for him at home are a shock that fills in some of the holes in his sketchy memory. But it could be too late to salvage his marriage.

If Ryan thinks flirtatious smiles, seductive touches, and hot-and-heavy kisses are going to smooth things over, Julia’s got a hammer with his name on it. To her surprise, he picks it up, determined to rebuild a bright future for both of them. But the past is lurking with some missing pieces that could bring their hearts crashing down.

Warning: Contains a pissed ex-stripper turned burlesque dancer, a bunch of nosy friends and a smooth-talking rocker with one thing on his mind. Stripper poles and skimpy costumes may be involved.

Read an excerpt:

“Julia!” Ryan crossed the room in seconds flat and grabbed her into a tight embrace before she could react. His familiar scent rolled over her, masculine with a hint of spicy green and the outdoors. He pressed her head to his chest, apparently content to hold her against his trembling frame. For long seconds she let him, too stunned to react. Then her shock gave way to fury, and she lashed out with her foot, kicking him in the shin.

“Ow!” He released her abruptly, an aggrieved scowl distorting his pretty face. “What did you do that for?”

Cripes, she’d broken her foot, not that she’d admit it to him. She gathered the pain and hurled it back in harsh words. “You can’t come waltzing back after nearly a year and expect me to welcome you. Didn’t you receive the divorce papers?”

“I don’t want a divorce.” His blue eyes bored into her. Determined. Steady. He glanced at their avid audience. “Maybe we should take this somewhere private?”

Julia dug in her heels, feeling contrary. He had no right to burst into her life again. And as for orders—forget it. She squared her shoulders and glowered at him. “They’re my friends. They can hear anything you have to say to me.” Aw, heck. Ryan. She’d thought she’d hate him… No! She did hate him. “You cheated on me.”

“When did Julia get married?” Susan asked.

Curiosity buffeted Julia in waves, coming at her from all directions. Great. Just great.

She lowered her voice, steeling herself against his charisma. One look at his dark hair, blue eyes and strong runner’s body and her willpower seeped through the soles of her favorite high-heel pumps. Go figure.

“I can’t talk to you now. We should discuss this with our lawyers present.”

A total contradiction of her previous words. Off-balance, surprise and a tinge of outrage ran hotly through her veins, yet she wanted to grab him and lay one on his sexy lips. She wanted to lick along the tail of the dragon winding around one biceps and explore the scaled body tattooed on his shoulder. How could he do this to her?

By
Leslie McKelvey

BLURB:

Jack Vaughn is sure his life is over as he tumbles down the wooded hillside onto the deserted two-lane stretch of asphalt. Years of work ended with a single gunshot. Yet, it’s not over.

A good Samaritan stops to help him, despite the danger he poses to her.

Laine Wheeler knows better than to stop for strangers on the rural Montana highway near her home, but her conscience won’t allow her to leave an injured man behind.

What she doesn’t know is the man is an undercover ATF agent tasked with infiltrating a domestic terrorist group. His cover has been blown and helping him will put her life in danger.

Though there is an instant attraction, Jack knows that beginning a romantic relationship with Laine would be both unfair and unwise. Yet the farther they run, the harder it gets to ignore the feelings that are surging between them.

Sweet Sexy Sadie

by Christine Young

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

From the first time Sadie’s eyes met those of Brody McKenna in the hot Sierra Madre Mountains, theirs was a potent attraction—not gentle, slow, and easy, but hot, hard, and all-consuming. The daughter of a dysfunctional family, Sadie had dreams no man could wrench from her with hot sex and an all-consuming passion. She’d challenge this alpha male with all the strength she possessed. But her red hair, fiery temperament, and indomitable spirit obsessed Brody...and he knew he had to find a way to show her he was more than he appeared and convince her to make a life with him.

Read an exclusive excerpt!

Sadie closed her eyes then opened them. Her hand rested on her chest above her heart. "You're scaring me, and that's not too hard to do right now." 

"I don't mean to. But it's better to err on the side of caution, don't you think? Here, let me see your cell phone." Brody picked up Sadie's bag then handed it to her. 

She rummaged through it for a few seconds before finding the phone and giving it to him.
Brody punched in his number. Passing it back to her, "Call me anytime tonight. If you hear anything, if you just want to talk, I don't care. Call me." 

"You sure?" Her hand shook as she accepted the phone from Brody. 

"Absolutely," he paused then stepping beside her, he traced the line of her jaw with his fingertip. Bending close to her ear, he whispered, "I've got this overpowering one of a kind desire to kiss you. May I?" 

Her eyebrows rose, but she nodded. 

"Good," he said. "I've needed to do this since I saw you bending over your poor dehydrated mustang." 

His finger under her chin, he slowly lifted it so she looked into his eyes. Hers were a gorgeous shade of summer sky blue. She blinked as he lowered his mouth to her lips. They were soft and he touched them lightly with his then he ran his tongue across them. 

"You taste damn good, princess. Will you open for me?" He so needed to take this kiss one step farther. His hands rested on the small of her back. With a hint of pressure, she moved closer to him. He wondered if she felt his cock, hard, hot and ready for more than he meant to claim tonight. 

Sadie didn't say anything but her mouth opened. God, but her taste was so heady as he explored the inside of her mouth. Teeth, tongue, lips; everything to taste left him breathless with longing. Hanging on to this moment paramount in his head, he met her tongue with his own, danced and played with it until he heard a feminine moan of pleasure. Every masculine part of him wanted to pump his fist with the knowledge he'd just won this round, but he didn't want to let go of her. 

Moving closer to him, her hands resting on his shoulders, she ran her fingers through his hair. The leather thong he'd bound his hair with fell to the floor. Suddenly, Sadie became the aggressor, the leader in the sexual game they played. She pulled him closer and tasted him. Her tongue ran across his teeth then into his mouth. He growled with the pure sensations coursing through him. And like an inferno he thought he might truly explode from the pleasure. Deep in his throat he let out a low growl. Then slowly pushed her away. 

When she looked at him, her eyes were slightly glazed and her lips were moist, swollen slightly form his kisses. With his thumb he stroked her lips and she sucked it into her mouth. 

Dear Lord, give me strength. 

"I think you are going to need your sleep," Brody watched her breasts and she inhaled long breaths of air as if that tiny kiss had left her winded. He delighted in their sweet movement and could hardly wait to see her naked. Later. 

"Are you telling me to stop?" she asked, a purely devilish expression gracing her angelic features. "What if I don't want to?"
