Book Description:
On
the ski slopes of Montana, deception turns deadly and seduction becomes more
hypnotic than jewels.
Reagan
McKinney is on a mission to discover more about a deceased uncle who mysteriously
left her a sizable inheritance, a condo in the mountains, and a stash of stolen
jewels. With both her graphic design
career and her love life in shambles, the opportunity to begin a new life
couldn’t have come at a better time.
When she becomes involved with the sexy FBI agent next door, she finds
her struggle is not only to keep her heart intact, but her life.
Grief
stricken after an undercover investigation ends in the tragic death of his
partner, FBI Agent Garret Chambers goes home to find solace in the arms of his
mountain home. That is, until his boss
assigns him to investigate the spirited brunette staying in the condo next
door. He is assigned to investigate
Reagan’s involvement with a large jewel fencing organization, but his investigation
becomes comprised when his attraction to her heats up. Will his discovery destroy everything he has
come to love, including Reagan?

Excerpt :
“I’m
not sure I’m ready for that,” Reagan said, running her tongue over her lips as
she rested her glass on the counter. “Skiing, that is,” she quickly added. He
would never know she’d been thinking of kissing him, but she had to force
herself to look away from his mouth. Nudging Naomi, she stood. “It’s time for
me to go. I need to settle in. I haven’t even unpacked yet.” And she had no
intention of doing so now, but it was a good excuse to leave. She wiped her
hands on her jeans before extending her hand to his, praying hers weren’t
clammy. “It was great to meet you.”
Garret
grasped her proffered hand and nested his other on top, engulfing her hand. She
burned. Everywhere. “Meet me on the slopes tomorrow?”
Reagan
bit her lip and glanced at the floor. “Tomorrow? I don’t know. I might need a
little more time to get used to this place.”
“We’ll
start with sledding. You can’t not like sledding.”
She
didn’t know, seeing as how she’d never done it, but cozying up to him at a
hundred miles an hour would probably be amazing.
“I’m
safe,” Garret said as he dropped his hand.
“You’re
what?” she asked, meeting his eyes. Maybe he was a good guy in most people’s
standards, but he made her heart beat too fast to be anything but dangerous.
“I’m
harmless. Several people in town will vouch for me.”
“But
I don’t know them either.”
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
During
my senior year in high school, I was dubbed most likely to write a novel
because I always had my nose stuck in a book.
I would hide my romance novels under my history book until my teacher
called me out on it. Writing has been my
dream ever since my mother read Brer Rabbit to my sister and me so often that
we were able to recite it back to each other before actually learning to
read. I love reading about the adventure
of love, and getting involved in the legal field developed my love of suspense.
I believe love is a mystery that most people have trouble resolving. While I don’t expect we’ll ever solve that
mystery, I love to read and write about characters who work to solve their
love’s mystery. See more about me at my

Thank you for hosting! I'll check back later but for now, I leave readers with a question: What is your favorite part of a story?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the excerpt. My favorite part of the story is the end. I always need to know how things work out which is why it is so hard for me to put down a good book

ReplyDeleteSnow , fireplace and sex FBI guy. Sounds interesting. DebP

Sounds exciting! And reading about skiing is certainly appealing when it's so hot...
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the story is the beginning. I like meeting the characters (or catching up with them, if it's a sequel) and trying to guess what direction the story will go in.

Thanks for the kind comments! There's definitely some snow! (Wish I had some about now with it being a real feel of 110 degrees!) A sexy FBI guy, and a fireplace.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Mer. I love a good beginning, too. It's also probably the hardest to write. :-)
It's been a long time since I ready any BRER RABBIT.
ReplyDeleteBURN ON THE WESTERN SLOPE sounds fabulous.
