This is the final day of my book highlight series so I thought an nice tasty offering might be in order. So far there are two Edible Delight (ED) anthologies, Vol 1 contains for novellas including one by me, All You Can Eat. The soon to be released ED Vol 3 (this anthology should be out in mid October) also has one of my novellas, A Tasty little Treat, my first paranormal offering for readers and the beginning of a series if all goes to plan.
So today, as well as highlighting my story from the already published ED Vol 1, I'm also giving you a sneak peak at the new novella which will appear in the soon to be released ED Vol 3. I hope you enjoy both.
All You Can Eat
(Edible Delights Anthology Vol 1)
Combine one sexy chef, a
dominant food critic, and a generous splash of mistaken identity. Apply heat to
create a deliciously erotic banquet for two.
As a Chef, Katrina McGregor knows she can’t please everyone so
when a prominent food critic slams her signature dish she’s faced with a
choice. Crumble under the weight of one man’s opinion or use it as motivation
to change. Katrina’s curiosity peaks when she’s invited to trial her new menu
at the critic’s country estate. Why has he taken such an interest in her career
and is food the only thing that Conrad Fletcher has on his mind?
Conrad Fletcher refuses to be held responsible for Katrina
assuming his elderly father and namesake is the critic who condemned her food.
If his plan to seduce the voluptuous little chef who captured his attention weeks
earlier succeeds, not only will Katrina have a critically acclaimed menu,
she’ll also be in his arms and home forever. The only thing that threatens to
prevent successfully achieving that goal—her reaction to a simple case of
mistaken identity.
Excerpt:
Kat strode to the bathroom and turned on the cold water, hoping a chilly
start to the day would calm the heat of her arousal. The water rushed over her
naked skin causing a shiver, her breasts ached as her nipples became more erect
than Kat thought humanly possible. Picking up the cake of soap, she lathered
her body. Her hands sliding over wet soapy flesh felt unexplainably sensual so
she changed tack, adopting the roughly-lather-quickly-rinse approach. It didn’t
feel any less erotic as visions of Jai taking her crudely, forcefully, filled
her mind. Kat rested her head against the cool tile wall, an aggravated moan
accompanied the soapy bubbles as they disappeared down the drain. The situation
was impossible.
“Do you need any help washing your back, kitty kat?” The sound of Jai’s
deep voice caused her pussy to clench. She groaned, flicking off the faucet,
Kat quickly reached for the towel hanging over the glass petition of the
cubicle.
Jai stood in the doorway leading from his bedroom, jeans sitting low on
his hips, muscular stomach and chest on full display, hair ruffled from just
getting out of bed. The look on his face could only be described as wicked and
Kat averted her eyes, attempting to ignore the distinctive bulge at his groin.
She summoned the energy to appear indignant.
“How long have you been there and why are you in here?” she snapped.
“Well, hearing your soft moans, I thought I’d better investigate.
Luckily, I arrived around halfway through the soapy display. So, in answer to
the first part of your question, long enough to be entertained, amused,
aroused. As to the why, well, you didn’t lock the door. I did warn you last
night. I believe I said—”
“Yes I remember.” Kat snapped. “If
I don’t want you catching me wet and naked in the shower I need to lock the
door.” Kat adjusted the towel to ensure she was fully covered. Not that it
mattered now because he’d seen her in all her glory—every curve and wobbly
bit—she doubted the soap covered anything much.
“Exactly, therefore I assumed…door not locked…my kitten wants me to see
her naked, glistening with water and bubbles.”
“Male logic never ceases to amaze me.” Kat couldn’t decide if she wanted
to smack the smug look off his face or have him rip the towel off her body,
then take her roughly, pressed up against the bathroom wall. Maybe both would be equally satisfying.
He stalked toward her, grabbed a fistful of wet hair, engulfed her lips
with his own and immersed her in the most passionately, erotic kiss she’d ever
experienced. Her arms entwined his neck, the desire to respond with equal vigor
overwhelming her. Jai swallowed each moan of delight elicited from her, a
guttural groan his response to the need she expressed. The towel slipped from
her body as he released her mouth. She gazed into lust-filled eyes as he began
to gently dry her skin with the towel, she now realized, he’d pulled from her.
Kat couldn’t speak, the kiss leaving her breathless, the aching need
between her legs clouding her mind. His towel-covered hands pawing at her
breasts, down her back, over her legs, between her thighs as he dried her held
her in a mesmerized state of confused delight. She should stop him. He had no
right to even be here, his behavior—totally inappropriate. Oh but it felt so
right, so good, and so damned erotic she didn’t want him to stop. Kat moaned
deeply, leaning back against his bare chest as the towel tumbled to the floor
allowing Jai’s now bare hand to cup the flesh between her thighs.
“I don’t seem to be able to get you completely dry, kitty kat.” His
fingers pressed between her lips, stroking gently over her clit. “I wonder how
horny you will have to become before you ask me to take you, because I won’t
take you until you ask.”
Kat could barely breathe as her body erupted with heat. She wanted Jai
more than any man she’d met before, but at the right time, in the right place.
Not here and now, the focus of this visit should be work, not fornicating with
her mentor’s son.
“Please, Jai.” Kat’s words were spoken with a groan. “Your father may not
approve…I need to think of the reason I came here not our attraction for each
other. Please, don’t do this to me.”
“I love the desperate way you say please,
kitty kat. I’m wondering when you finally say the words—should I make you beg
before satisfying you?” He removed his hand, kissing the top of her head as he
released her. “Now, I’ll leave you to dress. Wear something sexy for breakfast.
Father won’t be back until tomorrow morning as the food critics’ luncheon is
set for noon. So it’s just us here until then.”
Jai walked out the door before Kat could respond, leaving her steadying
herself on the basin for the second time in less than twenty-four hours.
