By some fluke, he’d managed to land on top, pinning her to the ground with her arms above her head. Her breasts strained against the thin material of the camisole, her nipples beading under his gaze. He’d ended up between her legs with his groin pressed into the tender flesh at the apex of her thighs.

“Seems I’m the one who neutralized you, Ms. Big Shot Bodyguard,” he said, practically panting. “Guess you’re not so tough without your weapons, are you? Let’s see if you can get out of this one.”

He hovered over her, his bare chest dangerously close to her aching nipples as his hands squeezed around her wrists. The air around her swirled with the aroma of cologne, testosterone, and desire. It was intoxicating to the point she wanted to close the distance between their lips.

“You think I lied about my skills?” she asked, straining against his hands to determine exactly how strong his hold on her was.

He shrugged. “We all talk a better game than we can play sometimes.”

“Oh really?” she asked, an idea forming in her mind. Distract and attack. “Exactly what have you exaggerated about your game?” With accentuated purpose, her gaze raked down his body to settle on the area currently nestled between her legs. When she met his gaze again, there was fire in his eyes. “It’s okay. I’m sure all guys tell the biggest fish story once in a while.”

His rolled his hips, pressing into her. She bit her lip to stifle a moan. No way she’d give him the satisfaction of knowing how good he felt.

“Some things don’t need to be exaggerated.”

An Excerpt from SOMEONE WORTH PROTECTING

Get your copy Here!

“I’m sorry. I’ve been too busy living in a world with real action, actual bad guys who try to kill me with real bullets, and dodging explosions that literally blow things to pieces, to watch you play grown up while your adoring fans eat popcorn and dream about licking melted butter off your abs.”

“Is that their fantasy or yours?”

“I’m sure you’ve been too busy killing people, or whatever it is you claim to do, to watch any of my movies lately, but I’m kind of a big deal in the action movie world. Fans expect me to be the tough guy they see on screen and that’s what I give them when I’m off screen too.”

She rolled her eyes. It was the first real expression he’d seen, and he liked that he’d been able to break through her carefully constructed outer shell.

“As I was saying,” Gabe chimed in from the couch. “You need a solution that won’t hurt your reputation and Lacey is the perfect person for the job. In fact, she’s the perfect person for two jobs.”

“I only agreed to be security.”

“I know. And that’s what you’ll do. You’ll simply do it while also pretending to be Rex’s new personal assistant, which he actually needs.”

“I’m not trained to be an assistant. I don’t fetch lattes.”

“What’s wrong, sugar? That beneath your pay grade?” Rex asked.

Her cheeks pinked ever so slightly as she narrowed her eyes. “Yes. And call me sugar again and I will break you.”He laughed. Loudly. “You’ll break me? Wow. You’re hardcore. Good thing I don’t break easily, or I might be worried.”

Will SOMEONE WORTH PROTECTING become your sweetest obsession?

Rex Randall, Hollywood’s hottest action hero, will do almost anything to protect the empire he’s created—except risk his tough guy image by getting a bodyguard. When threats roll in faster than fan mail because of his controversial upcoming movie, he has to give in or risk his life along with his career.
Lacey Grace might appear delicate, but don’t let that fool you…she’s a highly trained bodyguard. Protecting Rex is a step down from her usual royal clients and she’s not sure what’s worse, his enormous ego or pretending to be his assistant as her cover, but the tabloids can’t find out he’s being protected—by a woman.

Rex and Lacey might’ve agreed on the rules of their relationship, but desire doesn’t know how to fight fair.

Family Life Friday

IMG_3684I have 2 daughters and I want more than anything for them grow up knowing they are strong, independent, and capable of anything they set their minds to. Sometimes that seems overwhelmingly difficult while raising them in a world that feels chaotic so often now. There are so many messages out there for them to take in, and many of them are not the ones I want them to hear.

So in an effort to empower them, and myself, I organized a self-defense class for mothers and daughters at a local TKD place. It was 2.5 hours of kicking, punching, learning out to get out of different holds, learning an attacker’s weaknesses and our strengths. At the end of the session, we all broke boards! We kicked and punched our way through those suckers!! It was incredibly fun and so, so empowering to know that we could do it.

Now both of my girls are interested in taking up TKD because they loved the experience so much! While that might be a possibility if I’m able to fit it into our after school schedule, I’m also thinking about other things we can learn together to better ourselves in different ways.

I’m thinking survival training! Starting fires with and without flint… How to make a shelter… What to eat in the wilderness… How to use a real compass! I think these would all be amazing skills to learn myself and to have the kids learn. I’m going to look into it for this summer!

If you could take a class in something new or off-beat, what would it be?

4/21/17 #FridayReads #FamilyReads

FridayReadsHappy Friday!! It’s been a long week and I’m heading into an even longer weekend with not 1, but 4 soccer games on the schedule. And 2 practices too! Yikes. As much as I love watching my girls run around on the field, each game means showing up 45 minutes early for a warm-up practice. The best part of the that is I get to sit sidelines and read until the game starts, so really, it’s a win/win for all of us!! WhooHoo! So what am I reading this weekend? Here goes:

My reads:

  1. Sand: Omnibus Edition by Hugh Howey — I love this author and have read a few other books of his. This one is also set in an alternate future, but this time it’s full of… Can you guess it?… Sand! It sounds lame when I say it that way, lol, but it’s honestly a really fun read. There are sand divers who are basically treasure hunters and the whole world is a giant shifting sand dune. It’s pretty cool and worth checking out if it sounds like your kind of genre.
  2. Red Rising by Pierce Brown — I’m listening to this one on Audible and it’s fantastic! It’s the first of a series. Hubs is also reading the series but he’s already on book 3. I’m looking forward to listening to all the stuff he’s been enjoying. The narrator has a great voice and the story is full of twists and turns that are completely captivating. I’d say, if the book doesn’t grab you immediately, give it to halfway before deciding if it’s for you or not. The story changes and develops so much that it’s sometimes hard to remember that the story I started reading at the beginning is still the same one now. So good!

 

My kids’ reads:

  1. Fablehaven book 4 — Oldest daughter is reading this series and loving every minute of it. She’s a huge fantasy fan and has read as many series as I can find her. This one is definitely holding her attention and she keeps telling me how good it is! If you have a reader who loves fantasy, then maybe these are worth checking out.
  2. Wings of Fire book 4 — Youngest is just starting book four of this series. My older one read these over the last year or two and totally loved them so I’m really happy to see the younger one take an interest in them too. We’ve also shared this series with a bunch of friends with kids the same age (late elementary/early middle-school) and all the books come back smiling faces! So far we haven’t found anyone who doesn’t like the series! I wish I could tell you more about this series, but I haven’t read it myself. All I know is it’s about Dragons, Dragons, and more Dragons!

What’s on your reading pile for this weekend? I’m always looking for recommendations and new authors to try!! Let me know what you’re reading in the comments!!
