Blurb:
Darby Malone has trouble saying
no. Hosting a children’s Valentine party at her recently renovated gallery is
the last straw, and the last time she intends to say yes to anything. That is,
until she meets Ben, a well-known Cape Cod artist with eyes as deep and blue as
the ocean. He stirs feelings in her that have been dormant for too long. Can
she afford to say yes to him? Ben Phillips needs this gallery show. His life has been empty since his wife died four years ago, his paintings the only thing giving him solace. But his style has changed, his art completely different than the breezy shore paintings he staked his reputation on. Can he convince Darby to give him a chance – and to consider him for more than just a place on her gallery walls? Will she give him a place in her heart as well?
Excerpt:
Every
muscle in her body tensed at his proximity. Her mouth went dry
and her brain clicked into hyperdrive, suddenly aware of every last detail of
the six-foot god standing far too close. The shadow of scruff along his
chiseled jawline, the salty ocean smell wafting off his leather jacket, the
weathered tan along his cheeks and nose giving him the look of someone who
spent all his time outdoors wearing sunglasses. His dark blond hair, tossed
every which way by the February wind, looked like he’d just rolled out of bed.
Darby wondered what it would be like to be in that bed with him, tousling the
unruly mop with her hands, tugging him closer to taste those sculpted lips…
She
blinked hard, reining in her fantasy. This was strictly business. Ben Phillips
was kind of a big deal in the Cape Cod art community; it would be a coup for
her little gallery to handle some of his paintings. She’d been surprised when
he responded to her mass mailing with a request for this meeting.
He
cleared his throat, looking hesitant, maybe even a little unsure of himself.
“Maybe this is a bad time. I should come back in the morning as originally
scheduled.”
“No,
no,” she said, regaining control of her voice. “You just caught me by surprise.
I guess I expected you to be…different.”
