For your enjoyment, here is a small excerpt from Lovers Undercover: Impassioned. . .Enjoy!
Scarlett had many
personal fantasies; one favorite involved falling deeply in love with perhaps a
writer or a musician, someone creative. It all seemed so romantic to her, how
they would meet, fall in love, marry, have kids and live happily ever after. It
was just a silly dream she indulged herself in whenever her cynicism took a
brief leave of absence.
That fantasy must have been in the back of her
mind when she asked Zachariah Logan McGregor to meet with her. He is known to
his friends simply as Logan and Zachariah to his hoards of adoring fans. And of
course he was late. She glanced down at the Rolex on her wrist for the
umpteenth time. Where the hell was he? Come on Logan, time is money.
Grabbing the cell phone off the table, she
starts to call Logan’s number. As she waits for the first ring, a manicured,
well tanned hand intercepts her hand.
“Sorry I’m late, traffic.” He sits down across
from Scarlett. Logan was a striking man, more so in person. Photographs did not
do him justice.
“No problem,” she replied, crossing her legs
and staring into the loveliest pair of chocolate brown eyes she thought she’d
ever come across. Add his longish blackish-brown hair, with a physique to
match; well he would be any woman’s fantasy. “I trust the team is taking good
care of you?”
He said nothing, holding his gaze on her as he
pondered the question. He appeared cool in spite of the hot, humid summer day,
dressed in dark jeans and a black shirt with the sleeves rolled halfway up his
forearm. He came across as a confident, in control man. The corners of his
mouth twitched as he finally flashed a lopsided grin toward her. “Yes, of
course they are,” he replied.
