Everyone has their idea of sexy. It can be a look, a touch
and with clothes on or off. Each week, authors will bring you their idea of
sexy with seven words, seven sentences or seven paragraphs. Let the sevens
begin!
This week, we’re starting on the second book in the series,
The Thing About Elves...here’s the blurb:
It’s been two years since Angie’s friend, Tessa, got married
to Jedrick and introduced her to his brother, Ardan. From the moment, she saw
him she knew he was the man for her. There’s only one problem…he’s elf…an elf
who swears human and elves don’t mix. But Angie has other plans in mind. When
Ardan asks her to his house after the delivery of Tessa’s and Jedrick’s twins,
she jumps at the chance. Even though he keeps telling her nothing will happen,
they have been doing this dance for a very long time. And when she teases him
by caressing his body, Ardan knows he’s lost. But love and commitment are more
than just hot sex. Ardan still doesn’t trust human women and Angie is
determined to prove that she is the woman…the only woman…for him. She loves
medicine, the North Pole and him more than anything else in the world. When
Ardan is summoned to help a hurt elf, he is unavailable and Angie goes in his
stead to prove to him that she loves the community of elves as much as he does.
But something goes terribly wrong and Ardan is left to care for a comatose and
possibly dying Angie. Ardan realizing just how precious this woman is, vows to
prove to her his love is fathomless. No matter what the future holds.
The setup is very simple. Ardan and Angie have been working
daily at the clinic to get ready for the birth of Tessa and Jedrick’s twins.
She has almost driven him insane both mentally and physically in the short time
she’s been there. And here’s my incredible sexy seven paragraphs from this
wonderful book! Enjoy!
“Sure
you do. You just don’t want to admit it, big boy. You want me,” she closed her
eyes as if breathing in his scent just like he had done moments before. “And I
want you.”
Slowly,
she slid a finger up his leg and under his lab coat. If that hand or finger
went an inch high, she would know that he lied. Still, he tried to will his
body to obey his commands. Human women were off limits. Angie’s hand continued
its journey up his leg and he knew he was lost. How was he going to explain
this?
She
leaned back, looked up and chuckled. “What do we have here?”
Ardan
almost felt physically sick. He hadn’t let a human woman touch him since
college and here this one was practically in his pants. He cleared his throat.
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“And
you call yourself a doctor?” She stood on tiptoes and pulled him down to her.
“Maybe I’ll have to teach you,” she whispered in his ear as her tongue snaked
out and gently caressed the flesh.
It
was all Ardan could do to not take her on the gurney this very moment. For some
reason, his ears were extremely sensitive at the moment…that had never really
happened with the other human woman. “I’d rather you not do that,” he said
dryly, trying not to let any emotion slip through even though it was taking
every bit of elven magic to prevent it.
“And
what would you rather I do, my elf prince?” she murmured, her hand continuing
to caress the growing bulge in his pants.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Jessica...that means a lot!
ReplyDeleteEllen,
ReplyDeleteThis was one of my favorite elf books to write. Ardan and Angie were so well matched. It wasn't hard to get them steamy and sizzling.
