A Kiss in the Shadows
by Eve Kincaid and Lily Danes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Romantic Suspense
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Erin Grady
is used to taking care of people. That’s why she’s thrilled to finally realize
her dream of opening a clinic…and why she’s willing to overlook where the money
came from—until a determined prosecutor comes sniffing around.
Will Patton is desperate to leave
the small fogbound town of Lost Coast Harbor and build a real career for
himself. But to do that, he’ll need to expose the dirty police chief—and betray
the woman who makes him wonder if he’s leaving town too soon.
But the corruption in Lost Coast
Harbor runs deep and wide—and exposing the truth will require Erin and Will to
expose their hearts…no matter the risk.

EXCERPT:
Will
moved closer and reached past her, setting his wine next to hers and the
nearness took her breath away. She raised her chin to look him in the eye to
protest his bullying, but found herself speechless again, her heart pounding
and unable to pull her gaze from his eyes, hooded with need.
God,
kiss me. Again. And again.
He
reached up and slipped a hand behind her neck, his fingers stroking the soft
skin on her nape. Each brush fired her nerves, a heat that spread throughout
her body.
This
was crazy. She wasn’t into one-night stands, or hookups, or even casual flings.
But her last relationship had ended a couple years earlier. She was due, damn
it. She was a grown woman and could decide to have casual sex if she wanted to.
Just because that wasn’t her usual style, didn’t mean it was necessarily a bad
idea. She was just too busy, and worked too many nights. And she knew too much
about any potential partner, the hazard of living in a small town for most of
one’s life.
Will’s
lips brushed across hers and his hand tightened on her neck and any moral
objection she might have had flew out the window. Her heart pounded as the kiss
grew deeper, more demanding. She inhaled the faint hint of his scent and the
rough friction from the slight scruff on his face overwhelmed her. She ran a
hand up his hard chest, flattening her palm to feel as much of him as possible.
“Damn.”
His
gruff whisper didn’t make sense, but the sound made her shiver. Before she
could respond, he kissed her again. Her arms were around his neck, pulling him
closer. It wasn’t enough.
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Like so many good ideas,
Lost Coast Harbor was inspired by a few rounds of margaritas. One sunny
afternoon, Lily Danes and Eve Kincaid went to a Mexican restaurant for snacks
and tequila and left with the idea for a new series. Inspired by their love of
noir movies and 1940s crime novels, they imagined a gritty small town full of
crime and corruption, where intrigue and mystery can lead to love and passion.

Eve Kincaid is a lapsed
lawyer who decided that fictional crime was more fun than the real deal. When
she’s not writing about mysterious women and the dangerous and sexy men who
love them, she’s probably shopping for books, lipstick, or imported cheeses to
complement a nice California pinot noir.

you. Just don’t be creepy about it.
