From August 16 Hot Ink Press release, 'Love at First Sigh'
The next morning Sara sat working in
her home-office when the doorbell rang. She’d been absorbed in her work and
forgotten the time, now she ran happily down the hall to answer the door,
remembering that all the unpleasant things in the house would soon be fixed.
She opened the front door.
On the doorstep stood the most
attractive man she’d ever seen in real life. Tall, he looked down into her
face.
“Sara Lincoln? I’m from Handy Hubby
Hire, you booked me.” He held up an identification card.
She gazed into his deep blue eyes
mesmerized by them and his low, sexy voice. Her heart hammered and she stumbled
over the words. “Yes, come in.”
He smiled as he stepped forward.
Sara’s stomach flipped as his
gorgeous body passed close to her. She couldn’t help surreptitiously watching
him walk into the hall a few steps, before she closed the door. She sighed at
the view. A hard muscled ass in his faded jeans, his waist tapered from his
muscled back and shoulders, his dark hair tousled at the nape of his delicious
neck.
She met his stare when she turned
from closing the front door. If someone told her he’d stepped off the cover of
a romance novel, she’d believe it. He had the classic, sexy jaw, enhanced with
a shade of dark stubble and his mouth, perfect for kissing. Sara gazed at his
lips. What would it be like to trace my finger along them, kiss them? Her pussy
clenched. Wet heat pooled there and slipped into her panties. A year without
touching a man, not even seeing one she’d want to touch, and now this Hire a
Hubby stood there like some dream come true.
“I have the list of jobs from the
office. If you’d like to show me around, I’ll assess each one, and get started
if that’s okay?” His gaze roamed over her face, dipped to take in the rest of
her body as he waited for her answer.
Sara saw interest in his eyes. She
wasn’t so out of touch that she didn’t recognize when a man liked what he saw.
The thought sent a throb through her clit. Her nipples started to harden. She
folded her arms across the thin white T-shirt she wore. As he stared into her
eyes, she felt sure he broadcast attraction to her. She pulled herself
together. “Yes, of course. I’ll start in the kitchen.”
She went around the place and the
beautiful man followed.
