Welcome to another Sexy Saturday at a my blog! Today I've got a sweet and sexy seven paragraph snippet from "Always a Bridesmaid", the third novel in my Left at the Altar series. "Always a Bridesmaid" will be released January 17, 2014 from Uncial Press. For information on the other books in this series, please check them out on my website.
This snippet comes from the first chapter of "Always a Bridesmaid". Zach Morrison was standing at the altar, ready to say 'I do' when his fiance's ex-husband bursts into the church and informs everyone assembled that he and the bride-to-be have been sleeping together. Zach is devastated. But Dani, who is an old friend, helps him through the worst day of his life:
Wanting
nothing more than to comfort, she wrapped her arms around his waist in a hug.
He held her tightly, pulling her against him and burying his face in her neck.
Dani inhaled the intoxicating scent of spicy aftershave laced with underlying
notes of warm, clean male. How could Chantal treat a wonderful man like Zach
this way? She gently
pulled away, keeping him at arm's length. "You're going to get past this,
Zach."
"It
doesn't feel like it right now."
"I
know, but someday, when you're old and grey, you'll be sitting on the front
porch with your wonderful wife of fifty years, and you'll say 'Thank Heaven
Chantal cheated on me or I never would have met you.'"
He made a
sound somewhere between a laugh and a sob. "Fifty years, eh?"
"Trust
me."
Some lucky
girl would snap Zach up in a minute, and if she was smart, she'd shower him
with the love and consideration he deserved. Some
lucky girl, but not me.
Reluctantly,
she took a step back. He squeezed her fingers before letting her go. With her
heart pounding in her chest, and regret nipping at her heels, she hurried from
the church. Before she
did something stupid, like kiss the jilted groom.
I hope you enjoyed this sneak peak. For more great sexy snippets this Saturday, please go to www.mysexysaturday.blogspot.com Have a great Saturday!
