I thought I would celebrate my new cover art for The Department Store #2 and share another snippet with you.
First Floor: Cosmetics will go on pre-order at Totally Bound next month.
'Jonah pushed Maggie up against the wall, careful not to hurt her, but, with enough force to stop her running again. He caged her between his body and the brick building. As she worried her bottom lip with her teeth, he leaned down to catch it and draw it back out. She was soft and pliant, and her gentle scent intoxicated him further.
With
a point to prove, he kissed her hard, plunging his tongue in to her mouth to
taste her sweetness and claim it for himself. Such an audacious move would've
deserved a slap or a knee to the balls. Either would've been worth it. Instead,
she went limp beneath him, submitting immediately.'
From
the outside, it looks like Maggie Fenton has it all. The glamorous head of the
cosmetics' department lives a life of luxury, but money definitely hasn't
bought her happiness. In reality, she's married to a serial cheat who has made
her life a misery for over a decade. With her husband chasing younger women,
and her teenage co-workers' catty comments ringing in her ears, Maggie's resigned
herself to being on the scrap heap. Until Jonah Hamilton puts temptation in her
way and reminds her she's still a red-blooded woman.
Commitment
is a four letter word as far as Jonah is concerned. He has no intention of
settling down when he has the whole world at his feet. The only reason he takes
a Summer job at Kelsey's is to fund his travels. Well, that, and the sexy older
woman he can't help flirting with over the make-up counter. Maggie soon becomes
a good friend and someone who shows him how good love could be.
The
chemistry between them is undeniable but is a fling enough to satisfy their
desires, or simply the start of something bigger?
