This is my very first Book Brew post! Since it’s February, we’re here to celebrate love and romance. Conveniently, I have a brand new contemporary romance to talk about.
Delicious Delay is a classic love story with a unique twist. Rich playboy (who happens to be an Arab sheikh) gets a lesson in manners from a feisty American redhead. Sparks ignite, a meal is shared, and they fly off into the desert sunset.
So what’s special, you ask? This all happens inside a glitzy Middle Eastern airport.
Here’s a snippet:
On the brink of crossing a dangerous line, she hesitated. “What exactly do you have in mind?â€
“I’m just giving you the opportunity to have your way with me,†he offered, his face the picture of innocence.
She hadn’t expected that answer. “I don’t quite follow.â€
He kicked one of his legs out and tangled it with hers. She stumbled and instinctively moved her hands forward to brace herself. Her palms flattened over his hard muscled chest when she landed.
She traced the shape of his pectorals. “What do you do all day? Work out?â€
He chuckled, the low rumble all male. “I have access to the best personal trainers money can buy. They help keep me honest.â€
She shook her head in disbelief as the man preened. “Have you heard of a concept called humility?â€
“It’s not one of my virtues,†he admitted. “I’ve never understood the point.â€
She sighed. “It’s the polite thing to do.
He placed his forefinger under her chin and tipped her head up, his expression playful. “So what is a sweet, polite, goody two shoes doing on top of me?â€
