BLURB
Energetic
and motivated Angela Carnes landed her dream job in NYC as an editor for a news
show and she loves it. Her career is going much better than her love life.
After a breakup with Mr. Wrong, she’s determined to leave the past behind.
Angela just didn’t expect the best man at her friend’s wedding to be so damn
hot. Dr. Eric Bradley has a body to die for, a dynamite personality and he’s
recently partnered with a medical team. What’s not to want?
Eric
is determined to have it all. He graduated from medical school at the top of
his class, renovated his own home and landed a spot in an established family
practice. Now it’s time to get back into the dating world, IF the woman he
wants sticks around when she learns about his situation at home.
Angela
and Eric discover the spark between them during the wedding preparations. Their
attraction is hard to deny, Angela finds herself lost in Eric’s passionate
embrace. But after the reception, everything changes. Love blossom and
then…wilts. Will she be able to step aside while Eric honors his family
obligations or will the lonely nights and broken promises force Angela to leave
behind the man
she
knows is perfect for her?
EXCERPT
The
books she’d read on relationships preached to be mysterious, not clinging. You
never knew what worked. It really was all up to the chemistry and timing.
Tonight the connection felt right.
“I’ll
check my schedule at the office and be sure to put a weekend aside for a day at
the beach.”
“Sounds
like fun.” He’d indicated another date. Was it all too good to be true? She
didn’t want to blink and wake up if this was a dream.
“There’s
nothing like NYC. I’m happy I had a business meeting here today. It was lucky
for me you wanted a muffin and a cup of coffee.” He turned to face her and
smiled, the dimple in his chin more defined.
She
offered a demure grin and shook her head in agreement. “I’m happy for my
cravings for sweets.” Angela lifted her shoulders and pouted her lips,
realizing it might look like she was teasing. Even though her strong physical
attraction to him weakened her knees, she tried to remain poised. Then their
eyes met. Eric leaned in and pulled her close. He placed one hand on the side
of her face and covered her mouth with his. His after five stubble grazed her chin,
and he kissed her with an unforgettable longing that took her by surprise. She
parted her lips and quivered from head to toe. His lips were soft and his
tongue darted in her mouth without warning. Her panties moistened. The fire in
his kiss and the way his strong arms felt wrapped around her back made her
lightheaded. She stood on her toes, and under the lights next to Macy’s window,
Angela ran her fingers through the back of Eric’s hair and didn’t resist when
he pressed his chest up against hers and nuzzled her neck. Meshed together
under the spotlight, a flash of heat shot through her body. It seemed as if
they were alone in the midst of the busy city streets. A man sprinted past them
and bumped into Eric and the spell was broken, but it was a memorable moment
that validated how much she wanted him even more. She took a tiny step back,
still in a daze.
“You
look so beautiful tonight. You’re driving me crazy,” Eric whispered, his voice
hoarse and sexy. “Let’s get going, or I’m going to sweep you up and carry you
away.” His words sounded like something out of a fairy tale.
“I
might like that.” She gave a tiny grin.
“Oh,
you would? Come here.” He grabbed her around her waist and brought her into
him. They headed toward the parking lot.
“I’ll
have to make a point to thank Rob and Savannah when they get back.”
“What
for?”
“For
bringing us together. If they hadn’t added me to the guest list, I would’ve
never met you,” he admitted.
“Aww.
Thanks!” Angela shared the same emotions. “I guess you have a good point there.
What were the chances of an editor at a news and celebrity show hooking up with
a doctor starting his career in medicine? Definitely unexpected.”
“Is
that a good thing?”
“It’s
a wonderful thing. Not that I’ve dated jerks or losers.” She giggled. “I meet
mostly men in the business or in an associated field, working at a television
station.”
“You
don’t get out much, do you?” Eric joked.
“Very
funny.” She swatted his arm in a playful gesture.
“I’m
only fooling with you.”
“Yeah,
sure.” She laughed.
“Here
we are.” Eric led the way to his car. He
opened
the door on the passenger side. Angela got in and took note of his attentive
approach. A warm feeling of comfort filled her spirit.
