She avoids men like
him. He needs a woman like her. One lie changes everything...
Gabriel Antonov is a
mechanic who can fix anything, even a woman’s hesitance. His talents have
earned him the well-deserved reputation as a player, but when a routine
one-night stand goes wrong, he’s haunted by what he’s done. Nothing can free
him from those depraved memories, until he meets Leigh Nelson.
Leigh avoids strong,
silent types like Gabe, who is stronger and quieter than most guys. The only
man she’s focused on is her father, who is suffering from a devastating health
crisis. She’ll do anything to help him, even at the cost of ignoring her own
well-being, but the stress is getting to her. Gabe’s strength is tough to
resist, and his silence might be hiding a crushing secret only she can
understand.
He can’t outrun his
gut-deep craving for her. Problem is, she’s running from him. When they’re
marooned in his lakeside cabin, he might finally catch her…if he can admit why
he’s falling apart without her.
Excerpt:
A fat raindrop splattered on the porch screen. And another.
Tiny fragments of water landed on Leigh’s shoulder like little kisses. A shiver
trickled across her back, forcing her to step toward the center of the porch to
avoid getting wet.
The carefree humor fled from his expression. His gaze
dropped to the tips of her toes and slowly rose up her legs, her body, her
face. Gabe locked eyes with her, reached out, and opened his hand.
An invitation.
She gazed at his broad palm and dark memories rose, fueled
by a violent incident that flashed through her mind whenever a big man got
close…but this man was different. Gabe used his considerable strength to
protect, not dominate. Months ago, he’d pulled off the Interstate to help her
when no one else had. After that, he’d showed up to run with her when no one
else would. And a few minutes ago, he’d tamed his powerful Harley so she’d
enjoy the ride when no one else seemed to care if she had any fun. Even tiny
things like ladybugs received his special brand of kindness.
She had no reason to believe Gabe would willfully hurt her.
Even so, her heart tripped at the sight of the thick rope of muscle along his
arm.
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Lynn Kellan
writes contemporary romance about strong men who have a weakness for smart women.
She believes men and women aren't that different, because everyone wants to be
with someone who will empty the dishwasher. To prepare for her career as a
romance author, she fell in love with bad boys, burly athletes, battle-hardened
Marines…and married a chemist. Lynn has won numerous writing contests and
served two terms as President of her local Romance Writers of America chapter,
but she feels a true sense of accomplishment whenever she doesn't embarrass her
teenaged kids.
For love. For
funny. For ever.

ReplyDeleteHi Nana! Thank you for having me on your website. I noticed that you write for Kimani, which is one of the houses that my critique partner would love to write for.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of writing, I may not get many words on the page today. My husband and daughter are home for Presidents' Weekend AND it's sunny outside...so we might take a hike along one of the local trails.
If you have today off from work, what do you plan to do?
Warmly,
Lynn K.
