~Synopsis~
He’s utterly alone…
Tortured and existing in a dark spiral of despair, bestselling
British author, Gavin Cooke, has come to the Outer Banks of North Carolina to
escape the seedy lifestyle he had been living in London and in a desperate
attempt to regain his writing focus. He’s twisted, bitter and angry at the
world. He’s a loner… needing not a single thing other than his Scotch and a
laptop upon which he can bang out his next erotic, dark thriller.
She’s running in place and getting
nowhere…
Savannah Shepherd’s life is falling apart. Her dream of being a
wildlife photographer seems a distant memory and she’s barely able to make ends
meet. Driving herself forward with no clear goals apparent, she’s about ready
to pack up her bags and head home with her tail between her legs.
Two unlikely lovers…
He’s raw, forceful and a dirty talker. She’s a flowers and
romance type of girl. Yet within each other, they find a mutual craving that
can only be satisfied by giving in to their desires for one another.
Lust turns into something more… something they were not looking
for but tentatively accept. Will it be enough to push them past the obstacles
of Gavin’s bitter past?
*SUGAR ON THE EDGE can be read as a stand-alone*
~Excerpt~
He
smiles at me then, and it’s the most brilliant smile I’ve seen on his face yet.
He reaches his hand across the table at me, and I release my napkin to take it.
“Now that that’s out of the way, tell me your secret.”
“My
secret?” I ask in confusion.
“The
secret you said you would tell me maybe someday,” he reminds me while stroking
his thumb over the back of my hand.
“Oh,
that,” I say with immediate understanding. “It’s not all that interesting.”
“It
must be if it’s a secret,” he prompts.
“It’s
not really a secret. It’s public knowledge, just not something I talk about.”
“Yet,
you told Brody about it.”
“He’s
my friend… my closest.”
“I’m
betting Brody was never as close to you as I was this morning… when I was deep
inside your body.”
I pull my
hand away and glare at him. “Why do you always try to shock me with your sexual
innuendos?”
“Love,”
Gavin drawls in that sexy, English accent. “That wasn’t innuendo. That was pure
fact… I was deep inside your body this morning, feeling every inch of your
sweet pussy surrounding me.”
“Stop
it,” I hiss at him across the table.
He
leans back in his chair slowly, giving me a calculated smile. Drumming his
fingers on the table, he says, “It’s time for you to stop being shy with me,
Sweet. I know you inside and out now.”
“You
don’t know anything about me,” I counter.
“I know
plenty. I know you’re unbelievably sweet, kind, and caring. I know you have an
amazing work ethic. I know you’re smart and funny, and you’re fucking sexy as
hell. I also know that you’re a risk taker and that you are nothing like I first thought you were. I
know you’re private and timid, but when you get angry, you stand up for
yourself. I know your body feels amazing wrapped around me, and I know that I
want to feel it again… tonight as a matter of fact. I know that I love to hear
you scream in pleasure, and I know my cock is aching for you right this very
minute. If I thought you’d let me, I’d pull you into the bathroom right now and
fuck you standing in one of the stalls, hopefully while someone came in, and
we’d have to be very quiet so as not to get caught. And I know… without a
doubt, you’d scream anyway, regardless of the danger.”
Heat
courses through my body, along with gratification that he does know quite a bit
about me already. That means he was looking at far more than just my tits and
ass, and he has found appreciation outside of those things that normally a man
would notice about a woman.
“Now,
tell me your secret,” he commands.
