For the last few months I've been sharing excerpts from Turnaround Farm, but today I'm sharing from another book, Never Trust a Pretty Wolf. We'll begin with Chapter One. I'm posting the same thing I posted last Sunday because I forgot to sign up. So forgive me if you've already read this.

Blurb:
Liesel Wolf has a secret, a dangerous secret she’ll go to any lengths to conceal. When she’s paired in a charity game with sexy marshal Andy Bryce, a man with secrets of his own, her carefully constructed world comes crashing down, and Liesel’s on a collision course with her past.

Last week:
“Yes, I imagine so. I don’t know what kind of car she drives, but she’s the only one who isn’t here.”

The minute the blue Mustang came to a halt, the valet hurried to open the car door for the newcomer. A pair of long, shapely legs unfolded from the car. Andy’s mouth went dry as his eyes traveled from her legs to her face. He had discovered a goddess. An overworked cliché perhaps, but he knew of no other words to describe her.

The goddess had Titian hair which begged him to run his fingers through it, freeing those glorious curls. Even from where he stood, her eyes glowed with an emerald fire. Her skin looked as if it would put satin to shame.
Excerpt


As he stared at her mouth, a bolt of fire stabbed him right below his belt. He could only imagine how it might feel to kiss and taste those lush, red lips.

 She sashayed up to the porch and held out her hand to Melton. “Good evening, Thomas.”

 Melton was having a hard time getting his voice under control, but he finally stuttered, “Welcome, L... Li... Liesel. It’s great to finally meet you in person. This is your partner, Andy Bryce. Andy’s a United States Marshal.”

 The light left her face. She shot Andy a look of what he swore was dislike, even though they’d never met. “Oh, but I thought you said the mayor was my partner.”

    These two have strong ideas about what their partners will be like.

    Hmmm, a bolt of fire below the belt sounds very uncomfortable LOL. She's going to make his suspcious if she's not careful, being upset over his being a Marshal...can't wait to read more...interesting snippet!

    Uh oh. This can't be a good beginning to their partnership. Is she upset because he's a marshal or was she looking forward to schmoozing the mayor? Can't wait for more!

    Trouble is on the way. He's attracted to her, and for some reason she doesn't seem to like him.
