Meet Dakota Davies. A little bit of a tongue twister. I'm super excited to introduce you to a new author bud this week and share an excerpt from her romantic suspense, protective hero, age gap, first in series! If you like quick, spicy, and lots of action, you'll love this week's excerptβ¦I know it's already added to my TBR! So without further ado, I give youβ¦.
Happy Monday! A big thank you to Breanna for letting me drop by today. Breanna and I are lucky to be part of the same incredible author group. Not only do we share ideas and laugh and okay, sometimes cry together, we talk about our stories and support each other. When I found out that Breanna writes romantic suspense books set in Alaska, I was so excited! I had a feeling Hunter thought I was bluffing when I said I could sail. The look on his face when I reeled in the mainsheet and ducked under the boom when we tacked was priceless.
Curious, I join him at the small swim deck. He tugs off his t-shirt and toes off his shoes. I blink. I take a step back and cross my arms. He tosses his head back and laughs. My heart hums. Our eyes lock. He has this presence about him, commanding but patient, and the way he watches me is intense. Was I just holding my breath?
Will it mean something if I do? An expression passes over his face. I peel off my t-shirt, revealing my simple flower-print bikini. Does he want me too? Where does that leave us? I take his hand again and he leads me to the edge of the boat, where the ladder descends into serene, turquoise-blue water.
They like that. It signals an animal in distress. Clearly, he is enjoying teasing me. I creep my toes over the edge. I lock eyes with him, wishing I could read what I see. Want to keep reading? Did you enjoy this takeover? Drop me a response and let me know! Find all my links here! Dakota Davies. Well, hell, when he puts it that way. His eyes turn serious. Have I lost my mind? I wanted adventure, right? Here it is. Which means I have to trust him. Can I? A shiver races down my spine.
