Enjoy an excerpt:
It had been another perfect day in Queensbay, with a blue sky and strong breeze, but now there was a different feel to the air. A bank of gray clouds was building out to the east, and the breeze had quickened. Still, over the town, sun reigned.
She sniffed.
“What are you doing?” Sean asked.
She hazarded a glance up and explained, “The air. It’s changed. Rain’s coming.”
“Still looks sunny to me.” Sean pointed toward the blue sky out to the west.
“Look out to the east, out over the water, toward the ocean. Looks like a squall is coming through.”
“Guess I’ll have to trust you on that,” Sean said, his voice light.
She stared into those liquid brown eyes and tried to control the reaction in her body, the way her stomach did a flip flop before sending out a call for the rest of her to do a happy dance. Seriously, she knew that Sean Callahan was not a good person. Why, then, did she feel that familiar tightening, the clutch of desire just south of her churning stomach?
Something almost like a giggle escaped from her. She told herself not to be so nervous. She had nothing to worry about. Sean Callahan had sought her out. If she had been one of her clients and this had been a negotiation or some sort of a deal, she would have told her client to act cool, collected, let Sean do all the talking, see what he wanted. See where this was going to go.
