Excerpt
My cottage backs onto woodland, and there’s a path leading
through it. Birdsong and the scent of blackberries fills the air. I let Toby
off his leash and he immediately starts foraging for anything edible… wild
fruit being his favourite snack.
I leave him to it and stride on ahead, knowing he’ll catch
up in good time. Soon I come to a glade where the trees have been thinned out.
Oh sh*t, standing in the middle of the clearing is Daniel. He’s bare-chested
and dressed in running shorts, doing stretching exercises braced against a
fallen tree trunk.
I slow my footsteps, treading quietly on mouldy old leaves,
and rake my gaze over him. His thick almost-black hair is dripping sweat; it
falls down his face and the back of his solid neck. His beard is unkept and
wild-looking. But it’s his powerful body that mesmerises me and I study the
tats on his muscular arms, tempted to get closer for a better look. God, he’s
beautiful, I suddenly realise. Beautiful but freaking scary at the same time.
I release a slow breath. Stop
it, Cat. You shouldn’t be looking at him that way. The man in front of you is a
brute. You need to keep your distance from him.
Slowly, my heart pounding against my ribcage, I turn around
and prepare to make my way back down the path. Except, Toby comes bounding up
and starts to bark.
