Sleigh rides are the theme for this week's My Sexy Saturday blog hop; however, White Out has horses, snow, skiing cowboys, and a whole lotta romance, but it doesn't have one sleigh. Here are 7 paragraphs, however, of the main characters getting hot and heavy in the front seat of a jeep in the middle of Main Street Steamboat Springs, Colorado.
On impulse, she grabbed his shirt
and pulled him across the space separating them. If she only had one night left
to live—which was a definite possibility—then she wanted to go out on her
terms.
"I was a pretty wild kid
myself," she said against his lips, "and I used to get whatever I
wanted. A real brat, I'm sure people would say. Right now...I want you and I'm
happy that you're a stubborn ass who wouldn't stay away. I only hope you won't
end up hating me when this is over."
She ground her mouth against his
and surrendered to the lust that had been buried too long. The make-out session
in the hot springs had been nice, but she wanted unrestrained passion and
skin-on-skin contact. Tongues collided with one another as he leaned heavily
against her, pressing her against the passenger door.
He shoved his hands into her hair
and held her face close while his mouth devoured hers with equal force. Teeth
captured her lower lip as he inched back from her face, conscious of them being
parked on Main Street in front of busy sidewalk.
Frost lined the interior windows
from their body heat.
"You're one helluva
rollercoaster ride, babe. We keep making out in cars and public places, don't
you think it's about time we take this to the next level? I'm a long way from a
teenager and would like to make use of that king-size bed of yours."
"Oh, that's definitely on the
agenda."
Blurb
She's been erased.
As a protected witness, Brandi
Simms has given up everything that made her unique to start over in Steamboat
Springs, Colorado. Blending into the background isn't easy, but it's vital for
survival. When her handsome yet incorrigible neighbor—former Olympic skier
turned cowboy—decides her aloof attitude is a challenge rather than a
deterrent, she knows the only right thing to do is resist.
The secrets she hides are deadly.
Ryan Landry isn't accustomed to
rejection. Three-time Olympic Gold Medalist, he's the local hero who came home
to run a ranch and be near his family. The mysterious neighbor who seems
content to hang out with dogs rather than humans haunts his fantasies and
ignites that competitive drive that led him to the world stage.
He's not one to give up.
When her dangerous past catches up
to Brandi, Ryan is determined to break through her secrets to find the truth no
matter what the cost. Trapped in a whiteout blizzard with unseen threats
lurking in the snow, will they get a chance to create a new beginning or will
Brandi's past be the death of them?
Keep on hopping! Maybe someone will be in an actual sleigh--that sounds awfully fun, too. :)
