Name that Book

Hey, Peeps…as Lori Foster would say. :)

I thought we’d have a little fun and do a NAME THAT BOOK teaser. For a little behind the book fun, here is a picture of the heroine’s namesake (the one in front) on the catwalk during a bridal show.

Belle on the Catwalk

She was halfway down the catwalk when her gaze snagged on a pair of green eyes. The color of new grass, they were set in a face as hard as granite and as sexy as sin.

The look in those eyes caught her as effectively as if the man’s hands had closed over her shoulders and halted her mid-step. She did in fact stop, her body freezing with a blast of sensations totally alien to her. Sensations that belied every one of the nasty headlines.

Her pause lasted only a second, but she felt the first blush she’d had in years crawling hotly up her skin.

The man’s thin lips quirked in a knowing smile.

Obviously aware that he was the cause of her hesitation, his expression reflected a mixture of mocking humor and blatant male approval.

She’d spent years learning to ignore the masculine admiration her body elicited. For her, the perfectly proportioned curves were a tool of her trade, nothing more, but this man’s look went zinging to the very heart of her.

Frissons of awareness skittered along her nerve endings, leaving goose bumps of sensation in unlikely places.

She stopped at the end of the stage, which happened to be right in front of his table while two other models wearing eveningwear came down the catwalk to flank her.

His eyes flared with pleasure as she stood in a mannequin still pose before him and his dark blonde head tilted slightly, as if he was adjusting his angle to look at her better.

An electric current vibrated across the space between them, inexorably connecting them.

Unbelievably, her nipples grew hard and her breasts felt tight while her thighs trembled with the effort it took to maintain her pose.

She’d never reacted during a show this way. Not ever.

Only years of practice and discipline made it possible for her to move through her choreographed routine with the other two models. However, no matter which direction she turned, she felt that amazing connection.

It was scary.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I’ll draw a winner from the comments on this post to receive the book. :) And if you already have it? You can do a book of choice instead.

Hugs,
Lucy

P.S. Can anyone guess who the gorgeous young woman on the catwalk really is?

  2. Cryna Says:

    This is from the anthology Merry Christmas Baby and is Jake and Bella’s story from Silver Bella. I loved the story, and how it ties into the mercenary series Ready, Willing and Able. As for who the person is on the catwalk - I think it is your daughter the one you refer to as DQ……………. :grin:

    Oh I don’t know who is on the catwalk up there! You mean the little one in the pic? Maybe someone you inserted there, like someone from within your family, daughter, granddaughter?

  12. catslady Says:

    As the others said, Silver Bella in Merry Chirstmas, Baby. I also want to guess it’s your daughter :mrgreen:

  13. Lucy Monroe Says:

    LOL The reason I said I’d draw a winner from comments rather than take the first right answer is so many would get a chance to participate. :) And you are all right on target, not to mention nice! Yes, that is DQ on the runway. She’s a doll.

    The winner of the book, or a book of choice (by me) is:

    Kim H.

    Hugs to all,
    Lucy
