Three fiancés in
three years makes Zoe Chantilly’s relationship column for the Georgia Times her
only semblance of commitment…that is until her dating advice takes a dive down
the Suwannee and she’s fired.
Unemployed and
single, she leaves the sweltering heat of the south and heads to the UKfor a man-free break from life. The
plan? Get with nature, write a novel, and be alone. Be very much alone. But
nature has other plans for Zoe.
Navigating the
backcountry roads of Wales seems just as complicated as her love
life. A near-collision hones her desires in on Dylan Mostyn, a Leo seething
with a raw prowess and macho magnetism the Aquarius in her can’t resist.
This Welshman is as
arrogant as he is gorgeous. He’s also her landlord. The undeniable and
thunderous attraction between them pinnacles during a karaoke duet at the
village fete, but what starts as a no-strings fling quickly spirals toward
dangerous ground.

Excerpt
Present
Day, August 1, 2015
“Dwi’n
caru ti,” he rasped in Welsh, rounding out his vowels and sharpening his
Rs.
Uh-oh.
Dylan Mostyn only slipped into his native language around Zoe when he was
horny.
He
entwined his fingers with hers, his gray stare fierce yet his touch gentle.
“Did
you hear me, Chantilly ?” he prodded, his voice
low and gruff with his own brand of rustic charm and raw macho energy. “Dwi’n
caru ti…I love you.”
Ah,
heck, how was she supposed to resist him now?
Like
a teenager about to get her first-ever kiss, she quivered, her knees knocking
together.
Damn
him for being so…so…so British. With his sexy accent and his Hugh Grant hair
flop and Gerald Butler’s down and dirty swoon factor. And his dimples. Gah.
If she wasn’t so weak-willed, she’d squeeze in one last wham-bam before heading
back to the States.
Who
was she kidding? A quickie wouldn’t sate her needs. Not anymore. What had Wales —what had
Dylan—done to her? Love, a four-letter word she dreaded. In all her thirty-one
years, she hadn’t truly loved anyone. Had she inadvertently fallen for him?
Truly fallen for him? Like head-over-ass and giddy-in-love fallen for him?
Impossible.
“You
can’t leave.” He edged her against the wall of the farm-style kitchen in the
stone cottage, his chest pressing against hers. “Not yet.”
“Umm.”
Between his hard body and a stone wall, Zoe dodged his lips by leaning to the
left and pointing to the whistling kettle atop the gas stovetop. His masculine
scent with subtle hints of amber and musk enveloped her and melted her a little
more.
“Do you love me?”
