Here's the blurb for Crossing the Line:
Madison Kelly is an erotic romance author from Canada on her way to her first ever writing conference. Across the border. A trunk full of dirty books and dildos proves enough to amp up her nerves and make her lips flap faster than the maple leaf flag.
But she's not going anywhere until George Petropoulos gives the go-ahead.
The Greek god of a border guard has something other than national security in mind when he detains this particular citizen. He can’t help but be charmed by the juxtaposition between her stammering blushes and the racy books she writes.
A hot and heavy interrogation brings out her inner sex goddess, one that she’s been hiding in the pages of her books, and leaves them both wanting more. But will they be brave enough to cross the line again?
And here's an excerpt, continuing from where we left off:
He moved closer
this time, leaning his forearms on the car door. Rolled up sleeves exposed dark
hair on tanned skin that made her mouth water.
“So, Miss Kelly,
what’s the nature of your trip?”
Her gaze locked
on his mouth as he spoke. When his pink tongue darted out to wet his lips she moaned.
“Uh, conference--I’m going to one--a writing conference.”
His eyebrows
arched, thick and a little untamed. “Are you a writer?”
A loaded question, isn't it? :D Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to visit the other Weekend Writing Warriors!
I'll make this end note short and sweet since I'm about ready to collapse into bed and never get up ever again...until tomorrow. Have a fabulous week! Be good, be careful, and be kind to one another! :)
lol. Love how flustered she is. I would be too, I think. :D
ReplyDelete(still playing this week, although my link is not on the wewriwa page)

ReplyDeleteShe's in for a strip search : )
ReplyDeleteHe's flirting back--that's not fair, she's obviously flustered by him. Unless he's enjoying her antics...
ReplyDeleteFor the rest of the day I am going to be very conscious of what my tongue is doing when speaking to a woman. If if has that same effect this might be my lucky day.
ReplyDeleteI really like her reactions to him. The details of him are hitting her down to her toes. :)
ReplyDeleteLurv the name of your heroine. Wonder where THAT came from....? *whistles softly while looking upward, all innocent and cute*
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see how George 'turns out'.
"Are you a writer?" hahaha, no dummy, she is going to a writing conference because she has a strawberry farm.
ReplyDeleteYou totally got the border guard right on this one.
