Summer #RomanticIdea + Fate Captured by @MMJaye

Summer #RomanticIdeaAuthor M. M. Jaye is here with her Summer #RomanticIdea and an excerpt from her latest release, Fate Captured.

Romantic Idea to enjoy this summer

Have your partner read your favorite romance novel and ask him which romantic scene he enjoyed the most and then re-enact the scene! It could be a candlelit dinner at a location similar to that mentioned in the book, wearing similar outfits, with the night progressing exactly as the book describes. Do your best to keep the script *winks*

In Fate Captured, the hero re-enacts the final scene of the heroine’s book (she’s an aspiring writer) even changing the dining room’s furniture to resemble those in the scene, and that’s how he won her back. He did need a grand gesture after the way he treated her, after all.

Can two wrongs win Mr. Right?

Trish Swan is living her dream. She gave up chilly Boston for a sunny Greek island to write her novel. But she likes hot crime between the pages, not before her eyes. Yet, she doesn’t think twice about turning in a video she captures of a cop roughing up a man–but maybe she should because fate throws her a curve ball she least expects.
The mind-numbingly hot Greek from the bar isn’t just a cocky bad boy in need of a little love. He’s a shipping heir wrongfully accused.

By her.

Career in ruins, Markos’ life is a hot mess, all thanks to one sexy do-gooder who keeps popping up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Touching her becomes addictive, so maybe he could forgive her for doing her civic duty. But when she dredges up ghosts from his past, messing with his sanity, his Greek blood boils. And someone is bound to get burned.

With a man’s life on the line, Trish prepares for a head-on collision that will push Markos over the edge. What does she stand to lose anyway? Her heart?

Excerpt:

Balancing the tray on one hand, Trish turned to take the drinks to the couple snuggling on the cushioned bench that lined the side wall. She gave Hot Guy a wide berth. Although initially she wanted him to watch her dance, she also had to think of her reputation at her workplace. Branding herself as an easy waitress was the last thing she needed.

She spotted the sleazo leaving his seat. His eyes were pinned on her, his upper lip curled. Now she worried more about putting space between her and him. She sidestepped clumsily, and her foot caught on the protruding leg of a bar stool, sending her careening forward.

A hand of steel around her arm steadied her before she fell flat on her face. As bad luck went, it was the arm with the tray, and by the time she pushed her tumbling hair out of her face, the drinks intended for the snuggling couple were soaking her savior’s jeans-clad thighs.

She looked up. As if she needed his steel-gray gaze to be petrified.

“Was that Plan B or a payback?”

At the sound of the guy’s low, deep voice, her heart rate went from fast to frantic. Trying to ignore the burning sensation his large fingers had left on her arm, she focused on what he was saying. Which was gibberish.

“What was?”

Hot guy quirked a thick, dark brow. “Do you make a habit of throwing yourself at men, or was that your way of getting back at me for not falling for your little dance routine earlier?”

Anger thickened her blood to the point of clotting it, and her heartbeat markedly dropped.

“Did you just imply I stumbled on purpose?”

“I didn’t.”

She frowned.

“Imply.”

Trish opened her mouth, but nothing came out. Glancing about, she saw that Bo had gone to the back room, and the snuggling couple were about to start making babies, oblivious to the fact that their drinks were now pooling on the floor. She inched closer to the bar and leaned against it, giving him her sweetest smile.

The hard expression on his face remained, but his gaze fell on her mouth, his eyes widening just a fraction.

She had a killer smile, and she knew it.

Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, she threw out her hand, snatched his tumbler and brought that drink down on him as well.

His gaze dropped to his lap.

“Now that was payback.” She pivoted and tossed her long hair with such gusto, it had to have whipped his face.

Excerpt:

Markos’ hand left her chin and came to rest on her lower back, pulling her closer. Reflexively, Trish placed her hands on his chest and reveled at the silky hardness of his pecs. “You saved my life.” He cocked his head as if he was sizing her up. “You didn’t stop to think of the implications. You jumped right in.” His large hands—even the one attached to the bad arm—gripped her shoulders hard. “You could have been gravely injured.”

His face and eyes were now hard, almost scary. He tightened his grip and shook her once. “In fact, what is a foreign girl doing alone on an island halfway around the world, working the night shift and then jumping thugs? Are you that imprudent? You could have been killed!”

Trish didn’t know about killed but buzzkilled she was.

With a snappy, outward move of her hands, she extricated herself from his hold, schooling her features not to wince at the acute pain on her chest.

“Imprudent? Who did you learn your English from? Your grandmother?” she said and took a step closer. “And what would you call getting plastered—or foxed if you may—and bringing your defenses down when you clearly have unfinished business with the mob? Prudent?”

Markos scowled. “How do you know anything about my business?” His brows bunched. “And what’s foxed?”

“Hammered, plastered, wasted… how’s that for a thesaurus?”

He closed the space between them.

“What I do on my island is my own business.”

She drew herself up, bringing her nose close to his. “Whereas a foreigner, much less a foreign girl, has no such right, right?

Markos’ jaw was so clenched she thought it would shatter, but his eyes told a different story.

Now. He’ll kiss me now.

“Are you two stepping in to be treated or not?”

Two heads whipped around. The coast guard officer’s dark form cast a long shadow over the health center’s threshold.

Markos jerked his head. “Go ahead.”

She crossed her arms over her chest. “Age before beauty,” she said, smiling sweetly.

Markos eyed her for a moment and then turned and strode toward his friend.

But not before she saw the corners of his mouth go up.
