Fancy reading a hot little short story?

Check out my steamy modern romance, The Right Man!

Blurb
Molly Daniels is summer holidaying in a small town in the country to recover from a broken marriage. She’s hurt, disillusioned and unsure of her future. She last thing she is looking for is a man.
Sebastian Lord is the town’s most eligible bachelor, a title he hates. Having given up on a successful career in the city he now owns a small farm and is content to hide away there, away from the real world that has hurt him in the past. Since his fiancé was killed four years ago, he’s refused to enter the dating game again.
They’re an unlikely pair, but Seb’s wayward dog has a habit of bringing them together. They give into their attraction and share a hot summer together, but can they let go of the past enough to embrace a future together?

Excerpt:
"Hey, sweetheart, remember me?" Seb laughed, waving his handsaw at her.

Molly gazed up at him on the ladder, while he cut dead branches off the apple tree. He wore cutoffs, a white T-shirt, and brown boots and looked as sexy as hell from her position. How had she managed to have wild sex with such a man?

"Who are you again?" She grinned.

"Do I need to come down and remind you?" he threatened light-heartedly.

"Maybe you do, my memory seems to have deserted me."

Laughing, he slowly climbed down, threw the saw onto the ground, and advanced towards where she sat against another tree, crunching on a freshly plucked apple.

She held up her hand to warn him off. "Don’t come any closer. You’re hot, sticky, and filthy."

"You don’t want to play dirty?" His eyes narrowed with passion that never ebbed.

"Ah, remember I am the hired help. You can’t take advantage of me. I have rights." She chuckled as he fell onto the grass beside her.

"Perhaps those rights need defining?" He ran his fingers ever so lightly up her bare calf, making her skin come alive. "What if one of your perks was that your employer had to beg you to make love with him?"

She shivered in anticipation when his fingers roamed over her thigh and under the cuff of her shorts. "And if I refused it?" she whispered.

"You don’t want me to beg?" His eyes widened in mock innocence as he edged one finger under the elastic of her bikini panties.
