Accidental Sex Goddess

director Reese Regan isn’t a sex goddess and doesn’t want to be. But the job of
her dreams requires enrollment in the renowned Sex Goddess 101. To avoid a trip
to the unemployment line, Reese must pass the program and become Chicago’s next
seductress—or at least fake it convincingly. Her best friend, the ruggedly sexy
contractor Ben Hawk, helps her “fake” her way through the program, and the heat
between them flares. When trust is broken and secrets are revealed, it appears
they’ve traded years-long friendship for temporary passion. Will faking
something so important cost them their chance at something real?
EXCERPT
“I think I’m going let Mark take
me out.”
His jaw ticked. “Don’t be stupid,
Reese.”
“Wha—”
He cut her off with his mouth. He
cupped her face in his big palm and brushed his lips across hers. He was warm
and gentle.
And from the first brush of his
lips, she wanted more.
Maybe tomorrow she’d blame the
tequila or maybe she’d blame the lingerie shopping or the dirty stories she’d
been logging into her notebook, but she moaned against him, loving the feel of
his mouth, the light scratch of his scruff. Ben was so painfully male. A hot
and delicious, long-denied craving.
Ben slanted his mouth over hers
and slipped his tongue inside. He tasted like beer. Like male. Like something
wicked and addictive. He wasn’t one of those rushed and sloppy kissers. He
kissed like it was making love. Like he had all the time in the world. Like his
most important task was kissing her. It was a kiss she’d known once and had
never forgotten.
He slid his hands under her jaw
and into her hair.
Reese grabbed a fistful of his
shirt in her hand and pulled him closer, thinking of his eyes on her in the
dressing room, thinking of the only other night they’d kissed.
He slid a hand behind her ass and
lifted her, pressing her between the wall and his body and nestling his hard-on
right between her legs. She gave a moan of approval and rubbed her tongue
against his, exploring his mouth for all she was worth. She reached around his
neck and slipped her fingers into his hair, tugging gently. Groaning, he pressed
himself even closer to her. She cursed the day denim was invented. She wanted
closer, closer even as part of her brain told her this was a mistake, told her
to end this before they ruined everything.
He tore his mouth from hers and
latched onto her neck. Sucking, nibbling, tasting until her eyes closed and she
arched into him.
His teeth grazed the shell of her
ear. His breath was hot as he whispered, “I’ll be damned if I’m going to let my
brother help you with the best parts of this program.”

ReplyDeleteGood morning, Rachel! Thanks for hosting a stop on my tour.
ReplyDeleteThank you to everyone stopping by today. This scene is the first time they kiss in the book. Feel free to tell me about your favorite kiss scenes (from movies or books) below. :)

Hi,
ReplyDeletethis is going to be such a fantastic read. I don't think I have an absolute favorite kissing scene.

Ingeborg, thanks for stopping by! :)
ReplyDeleteMary, thanks for stopping by! I have a lot of favorites, but one of them is that crazy first kiss in Jude Deveraux's Sweet Liar. They're complete strangers and yet she makes it believable.
Another stop on this blog tour and I am for sure certain that I need to know more about Ben :)

DeleteThanks for stopping in, Karen! :)
ReplyDeleteBoy, I'd love to attend that class. I enjoyed the excerpt and would love to read more. I like a romance story with some fun in it and this one sounds like it would have love and humor so it's going on my wish list.
