That Sexy Moment in the Library #MySexySaturday #Saturday7 #MSS138

My Sexy Saturday bannerThis week’s theme for #MySexySaturday is That Sexy Moment, and it’s in the Library in this excerpt from Worth The Risk by Lyn O’Farrell.

Worth The Risk coverThis contemporary romantic comedy features Mitch Delaney, an ex-race car driver and Amanda Lloyd, a children’s librarian. In this scene, they meet in the children’s room right after Amanda has let slip with a “damn” after bumping her head while picking puzzle pieces off the floor.

Amanda Lloyd stared into a pair of roguish blue eyes and groaned silently. “I don’t usually swear in the library,” she said defensively.

“I didn’t know librarians swore at all.”

“Don’t tell anyone, but we’re not as stuffy as most people think.”

“Your secret’s safe with me.” He raised an eyebrow and grinned at her, revealing a devastating dimple.

She made a quick involuntary appraisal of the man in front of her. He was on the tall side of six feet, with a muscular chest and forearms. His black hair gleamed in the light, and his eyes were a brilliant shade of blue. Even the tiny scar between his dark brows couldn’t detract from his rugged good looks. His short-sleeved blue knit shirt stretched taut across his powerful shoulders, and his stonewashed blue jeans fit perfectly.

She had seen attractive men before, had even been engaged to one, but this one was a potent blend of detached amusement and raw sensuality. What in the world was he doing here? He looked as out of place in the children’s room as a panther in a playground, and just as dangerous. It was as if one of the stuffed animals sitting around the room had suddenly come to life and was on the prowl.

Amanda was jolted back to the present as the armload of puzzle pieces slipped out of her grasp and thudded to the floor. How much more ridiculous could she look? She knelt down and started collecting the traitorous pieces.

Blurb:

Imagine a world filled with magic, a tormented knight, a damsel in distress, an evil sorcerer…

While picking herbs in the woods, Princess Ilona is rescued from a woodsman by a wolf. When the creature licks her wounds, it is suddenly transformed into a man. A very handsome, very naked man who makes passionate love to her in a glade.

Cursed by an evil wizard, Rolf was trapped in wolf form until he tasted the blood of a royal. Now he must escort the princess on a hazardous journey back to the castle to stop an ill-fated wedding.

Passion flares between them, but both know there is no future for Ilona and her werewolf. Or is there? In a world where magic and passion combine, anything may be possible.

Snippet:

He took a step toward her and reached out to touch her auburn curls. “You have not told me your name.”

She gazed at him, her green eyes dilating. “They call me Ilona Rez.”

Ilona of the red hair. A fitting by-name. “’Tis good to meet you, Ilona Rez.”

He cupped her chin and lowered his mouth to hers, noting her split lip was nearly healed. He kept the kiss gentle, not wanting to hurt her.

When he pulled back, she touched her lips, a look of wonder on her face. “My lip is healed. How could that be?”

He smiled at her puzzlement. “I licked it.”

“So you did. I had no idea werewolves had healing powers.”

There is a lot Ilona didn’t know about werewolves, but she’s about to learn.
