I'm celebrating the release of One Night in Sydney today. Writing the book and working with new publisher, Tirgearr Publishing, has been a great experience. Now all that's left to find out is if the book is well received. My fingers are crossed that readers enjoy Kane and Abby's romance with it's hiccups and unexpected turns. Even though the book is novella length I hope I've managed to pack it with enough emotion and hint of drama to make it interesting.
Will
passion win out over wise business sense in one of
the most
beautiful harbor side cities of the world?
Abigail Devon is all about business, until the dream of keeping
her company alive fails and she finds herself seeking distraction in the arms
of a tempting stranger she met on the plane. Kane Matheson is a man like no
other, and once Abby gives into her attraction to him, passions spark and a
night of erotic pleasure begins.
Kane can’t believe his luck when his flight to Sydney places Abby
along his path to a fun filled weekend. She’s his kind of woman—business
minded, clever, and with curves in all the right places. When he discovers they
have more in common than savvy business expertise and undeniable sexual heat,
he’s faced with a daunting choice, and left wondering if pleasure can win out
over wise business sense in one of the most beautiful harbor side cities of the
world.

Excerpt – One Night in Sydney by Jan Graham
You know, if you like, we could hang out together in the city for
a bit, maybe when you’ve finished your busy day.” Kane didn’t look at her this
time; speaking from his reclined position, head tilted back against the rest
with his eyes closed. “I only have to try on a suit and then I’m done for the
day. You could meet me there, let me know if you think I look okay, you know,
thumbs up or down, and then we could grab a bite… or something. Whatever takes
your fancy, beautiful.”
He raised his lids and angled himself slightly to look at her for
the final part of his statement, the wicked expression and cheeky glint in his
eyes giving Abby the distinct impression he hoped that he’d be the something
that took her fancy. He did. But it couldn’t happen.
Abby didn’t believe in love at first sight, but she did believe in
lust at first sight and Kane ticked all her boxes. Feeling breathless, hardened
nipples, feeling flushed when they touched, and that increasing ache between
her legs. Luckily the flight was a short one, so she’d be able to escape him
soon enough. In her party days they probably would have been in the bathroom,
reaffirming her membership in the mile-high club, but those days were behind
her. She doubted she’d renew that membership again any time soon.
“I really don’t think that’s possible. But thanks for the offer.”
She wondered if he knew she was lying. Of course it was possible, all she had
to do was say yes. She merely chose not to.
“That’s a shame. I have this feeling we’d get along really well.”
He tore the edge off the bottom of a page in his magazine, grabbed a pen from
his shirt pocket, scribbled a number on it and handed it to her. “In case you
change your mind.”
Abby laughed and stared at the mobile number in her hand. He
certainly was persistent.
“I assume you’ve run out of business cards?” She continued to
chuckle as the plane began its descent. “You did say you understood business,
right?”
“I did. I also said I was on a pleasure trip. I’ve left all
business accessories at the office. This weekend, I’m just a regular guy who
uses any piece of paper on hand to give the woman he likes his number.”
Oh Lord, thank heavens the plane had just touched down. She folded
the paper, slipped her fingers into the front of her shirt and tucked the
number into her bra. It was a mistake to put it there, and Abby knew it the
moment her gaze met Kane’s, who was now standing waiting for her to step out
into the aisle.
“What?” she asked innocently as Kane stared down at her cleavage
with a devilish grin on his face. “It’s just a silly habit I picked up in my
partying days. I’d pop anything important in my bra and that way I wouldn’t
lose it.”
Grabbing her handbag from the floor, she stood and moved to walk
out into the aisle but Kane blocked her way. His body forming a human wall as
he retrieved her bag from the overhead cabin. Luggage sorted, Kane didn’t move,
fixing her in place with his heated gaze.
“I’m glad you think I’m important.” His devilish grin didn’t waver
and he spoke in a tone laced with lust. “I’m also delighted to know that when
you take off your clothes tonight and get naked, you’ll be thinking about me.”
She was about to
burst into flames. Abby raised her hand, placing it on his chest with the
intention of pushing him back, only to find her fingers lingered on the defined
muscle beneath her touch.
“We’ll see,” she
whispered.
Kane placed his hand over hers, gently gripped her fingers and
raised them to his mouth. He kissed her knuckles tenderly and smiled. “We will.
Now off to your very busy business day, Abigail Devon.” Stepping back, Kane
handed over her bag before ushering her into the aisle. “I look forward to
receiving your call later today.”
Unsure how she made it to the plane’s exit on trembling legs, Abby
breathed a sigh of relief once she made it into the terminal. Allowing the
disembarking crowd to carry her forward, she picked up her pace. The more
distance she put between Kane Matheson and herself, the better. Today was all
about saving her company, not indulging in a quickie with a man she met on a
plane.
