Today's excerpt comes from Return Engagement. In this excerpt, my hero and heroine have met accidentally at the beach after a ten year separation brought about by his father who believes my heroine isn't good enough for his son. He just took her to a beach front amusement park where he won a stuffed cat for her. As it happens, at the time of the meeting, Elizabeth is engaged to a lawyer named Alex Crawford.
“I want to be your lover. I want you to say I’m sexy and that you want me. I can’t believe you think I’m sweet.”
Elizabeth willingly threw both discretion and Alex to the
wind. What did discretion or Alex matter at a time like this?
“Oh, that’s what you want, is it? I’m glad you made your intentions clear, Mr. Lovinggood.” She took a small step toward him and obligingly tilted her face upward.

The blurb sounds very interesting. Love today's snippet.
ReplyDeleteI feel kinda sorry for Alex... You're so good at that, Elaine. Writing characters that make the readers have conflicted emotions. Good 8! :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like the engagement might be in trouble.
ReplyDeletePoor Alex!
ReplyDeleteNow I wonder if he is going to kiss her or think about Alex more than she did.
Wonderful snippet. I agree with PT, thinks don't look promising for the engagement.
ReplyDeleteI'd kind of like to see Alex's take on this . . .
ReplyDeleteI'm with Teresa: you're very good at hooking readers with your character's decisions! :)
Wow!. Right off the bat. . .trouble and cheating do not bode well for a stable relationship. Terrific snippet.
ReplyDeletePoor Alex! I am torn here. I am quite certain she has her reasons for throwing her fiance to the side, but darn it I don't like it! Lol....
ReplyDeleteMy favorite kinds of characters are those who are deeply flawed, so you've got me intrigued. :-) Thanks so much for sharing!
Well that should definitely get his attention. :D
ReplyDeleteThings won't end well once her fiancé finds out!
ReplyDeleteGood for her! Yay! Enjoyed the excerpt so much...
ReplyDeletePoor Alex.
