Countess Curvy: A Curvy Girl’s Earl:
“That was cruel, Ms. Mills,” Thornhill stated. His eyes
twinkled with amusement, and a slow smile spread over his lips. “You’d curse me
to an evening of inane conversation, followed by inappropriate groping?”
“You don’t strike me as a man to shun inappropriate
groping,” Audrey added with a smile of her own.
“Well…not from the right woman.” He pushed off the wall, all
coiled grace and sex.
Audrey studied him for a long moment. Suddenly their
conversation had turned from a game of fun flirting to more. Much more. She
came to the astonishing conclusion that this shockingly handsome tall drink of
deliciousness was actually into her. She could feel her eyes widen as she
looked up at him.
“Come now, Ms. Mills.” Thornhill took a step closer, his
gaze steady on hers. “I can’t believe you aren’t pursued every waking moment.”
“I must admit while I’m used to the delivery man or the odd
photographer appreciating my curvaceous figure,” Audrey was surprised her voice
held steady. “You are my very first…earl.”
“It’s good to be first.” His smile was slow and suggestive,
and it took Audrey more than one moment to look away from his lips. What would
they feel like against hers? What did he taste like? She licked her own lips at
the thought, and then regretted it when his eyes followed the move.
Maybe not regret, not if the rush of heat through her was
any indication. No definitely not regret.
“So, what do you say?” Thornhill asked, his voice low, a
caress over her bare skin. “Will you rescind your rejection and accompany me to
dinner tonight?”
A million things went through Audrey’s mind—everything from
Is he joking? to Can I really do this? It would be such a fantasy to enjoy this
man, to joke with him, to kiss him. To have him. Audrey had never really fallen
headlong into the self-esteem chubby girl trap, but she still knew full well
that this type of pairing never happened. Never.
She tore her gaze from his mouth, a small, thin voice
telling her that wondering what he tasted like was the last damn thing she
should be wondering. “Between two evils, I always pick the one I’ve never tried
before.” The Mae West quote raced through her mind, and she heard herself
saying, “I suppose it would nice to experience London with a native.”

ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteHi Kristabel! Glad to have you on the blog today! What's going on in your neck of the woods?
ReplyDeleteMy neck of the woods is unseasonably warm! I understand it's the end of October, unless the calender lied. And I'd be OK with that, who else is having a hard time believing it's almost the end of the year?
DeleteThanks for hosting me today!
ReplyDeleteFun excerpt! Thanks for the intro to new to me author!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Glenda!
DeleteWhich book was your favorite to write?
ReplyDeleteShannon, it's funny. When I first started this series, I thought Countess Curvy was going to be my favorite. It was the first in the series and Audrey is so sassy with her Mae West quotes.
DeleteBut then I got to Sabrina and Gideon and it's their story that I love the most. I think it's because Gideon is so in love with her and is willing to go to extremes to woo her. Isn't that what we all want? A man who will go more than that extra mile for us?
Plus, there was the bet! :-)
What a really fun excerpt. This sounds like a really good book.
ReplyDeleteInteresting premise
ReplyDeleteThanks for the excerpt. I can't wait to read it
