Excerpt #15

“I’ve come this far, but are you sure you don’t want to just leave the rest to your imagination?   I know I’m not your usual type of girl, Jackson.  I’m sure it’s better in your head.”  Charlotte tucked her hair behind one ear, shyly looking away.

“Shut up Hamilton.  Maybe I’ve just now discovered “my type” of girl.  Put your leg up here,” he ordered, and she found herself helpless to refuse him.  He pulled her stocking down over her knee, and off her foot, tossing it aside.  She placed her other leg up for him to follow the same action.  Next, she turned around and presented her back to him.  She looked at him over her shoulder and smiled, gaining courage through his words of praise.   “If you want it off, you take it off.”

Never one to back away from a challenge, he reached up and popped
open the hooks of her bra with his one free hand.  She turned around and shook her head at him.

“Never before have the words “Time for the big reveal” been more appropriate.”  She pulled the bra away from her body and tossed it over her shoulder, bringing her hands down to rest on her hips.

“Well?”  She held her posture correct, and turned from side to side, letting him drink in the sight of her full figure.

Reed covered his mouth with his hand for a moment, and reached out to trace the outline of an areola with a rough fingertip.  His touch created a sensation that caused her nipple to pucker to attention.  He looked up into her eyes and a broad smile broke out across his face. “I think I may have hit the fu**ing jackpot.”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

Kate Patrick grew up in the South. She can’t recall a time in her life when she didn’t love to read. She remembers going to the library as a child where she devoured biographies and Nancy Drew mysteries. Her love of reading has continued into adulthood, but it is hot romance that she loves to write! While in high school and college, she and her sister began to write romantic stories about girls that met their dream guys who fell instantly in love with them. Even these early manuscripts were spicy enough that the need to “hide” these notebooks was a high priority when leaving the house!

Writing took a backseat to a teaching career, marriage, and motherhood, though books were constant companions. Love stories became a favorite, and began to take the place of mysteries more and more. About three years ago, the idea of writing was rekindled. Now, you can find her late at night typing away by the blue glow of her laptop screen.

She and her husband live on the Gulf Coast with their son and three quirky Pomeranians. When not writing or reading, Kate loves to sing, dance, and watch romantic movies, side-splitting comedies, and crime dramas. Spending time connecting with family and friends is an important priority for her as well.
