It’s that time of the week again—Sunday! Be sure to check back to the main site for the list of participating authors this week. As always, thank you to everyone who comes by my blog each week to read and leave comments. I appreciate every one of you!!
This week I’m giving you a little taste of You’re Not the One. I figured this novel could use some ‘love me’ vibes this week, so feel free to offer those up to the publishing gods. LOL! In this scene we have Cassidy and Evan who are finally giving in to what they’ve wanted for so long. Giving in is so good…
“I only ever wanted one man to kiss me that day, and it wasn’t the surfer boy. And, there’s only one I want to kiss me again.”
His mouth hovered above hers, “I’m going to assume you mean me.”
Without waiting for her confirmation—without letting his conscience protest—he claimed her mouth with his. Her lips were as soft and delicious as he remembered. Cassidy’s tongue caressed his top lip, exploring and tasting him with gentle licks.

Love a confident man! Should “conscious” be “conscience”? Enjoyed!

Good catch, Laura! I changed it. 🙂 I blame post-RWA conference excitement and tiredness.
