HIS SOUTHERN TEMPTATION

Some women
are bad. Some women are a bad idea. The best ones are both…
A former
Black Ops assassin, “Lucky” Landon has had more near-misses than a man should
ever have. Now he’s out of that business and settling into the simple life in
his small hometown. So the last thing he ever expected was to end up at
gunpoint. Or that the woman holding the gun would be his best friend’s little
sister and Lucky’s on-again/off-again lover.
Taylor
Elliott is Trouble, and she likes it that way. And seeing Lucky again? Well,
he’s been her dirty little secret for the past few years and everyone knows
that secrets in a small town are almost impossible to keep. But Taylor has
bigger problems on her plate. Like the local mob boss who wants her dead.
A LITTLE OF THE STORY
She
was tall, her length stretched out under most of his six foot three inch frame
even with their legs tangled together. And he could feel every inch of her
long, silky-skinned limbs as they extended out of the sexiest, tiniest pair of
boy shorts ever sold without a warning label. Those shorts, coupled with the
tiny tank top, left absolutely everything to fuel his imagination.
Damn,
she smelled good too. From where his face rested in the crook between her face
and her shoulder he was enveloped in the combination of coconut and a sharp,
exotic floral scent. Their exertion had caused the unique combination to
intensify, and he couldn’t resist taking one last deep breath and dragging it
in. It reminded him of the beach, long summer days, and suntan oil.
“Are
we going to lie here all night?” Her voice was breathy, but she maintained a
healthy edge of “kiss my ass” in the delivery.
“Nope.
Only until the sheriff arrives and he confiscates the gun you tried to kill me
with.”
“I
didn’t try to kill you.”
“Sugar,
if you point a gun at me you better be prepared to—” Lucky lifted his head to
get a good look at his would-be-assassin, and the shock of her identity hit him
between the eyes, swirled around for a bit and melted his brain. The hair was
different, shorter and colored in broad stripes of blonde and darkest brown,
but he’d know those eyes anywhere—hazel with all the colors of autumn on the
mountain—just like her brother Teague. Just like all the Elliotts.
“Taylor?”
“Lucky?”
“What
the hell are you doing here?” Shock, instant remorse at the way he’d tackled
her, and the crazy need to touch her threaded together in his mind in a
confusing jumble of conflicting desires. The only clear thought was that Taylor
was here—in the flesh— after two long years. He didn’t even mind his hands
shaking as he released her arms from over her head, trailing his fingers down
one smooth cheek, and finally stopping to cup her jaw in a light grip that
forced her to maintain eye contact. Not that he needed to—her gaze never wavered
from his. The warmth of welcome and the edge of heat in her expression made his
fingertips tingle where they stroked her skin. “The last time I saw you in
Elliott, you were stealing my car.”

THE SOUTHERN BOYS
We've got all the "boys" from Robin's Southern Series getting
lost with us today.
ROBIN:
Oh Angi – I don’t know what you were thinking
inviting all these guys here. I cannot guarantee that they will behave . . . .
fair warning!
ANGI: How often to you get lost in a
story?
JACKSON: I’m not much of a reader but I do love to sit with
my Dad and listen to him tell stories about when he was a cop. I can lose hours
with him . . .
ANGI: What’s the first book you
remember reading?
BECK: Oh man, I did not grow up in a house full of
readers but I remember getting a copy of “Treasure Island” when I was kid from
a social worker. That’s probably my earliest book I remember reading. I think I still want to be a pirate searching
for gold – that would be so cool.
ANGI: What’s your favorite “love”
word?
TEAGUE: I don’t really believe in all that stuff. People
throw it around so much these days –they love their current meal to a
television show. So, I guess that’s my long-winded way of saying next question!
ANGI: Can you tell us about a
real-life hero you’ve met?
LUCKY: I served in the United States Marine Corps and I
met heroes every day. If you have a few days, I’ll tell you about every single
one of them.
ANGI: What’s your favorite fairy
tale?
LUCKY: Let’s see . . . Snow White, Sleeping Beauty . . . any story that lets me kiss the girl.
TEAGUE: We
promised to keep this PG-13.
LUCKY: What did I say?
ANGI: What’s your favorite cartoon
character?
JACKSON: Lucky. He’s
a life-size cartoon character.
LUCKY: Bite me.
ANGI: What sound or noise do you
love?
BECK: The sound the wind makes rushing past my ears when
when I’m sky-diving or base-jumping.
TEAGUE: I figured you’d make some comment about the sound of a woman in your
bed . . .
BECK: I’m trying to keep this PG-13 man.
ANGI: Fairy Tale or Action Adventure?
BECK: Oh, action adventure.
JACK: He’s an adrenaline junkie.
BECK: I’m an
adventure enthusiast.
TEAGUE: You’re
crazy. Why would you jump out a perfectly good airplane?
BECK: It’s better than sex.
TEAGUE: I’ll take your word for it. On the ground.
ANGI: What’s your favorite movie of
all time?
TEAGUE: Bullitt by Steve McQueen. That guy was a badass.
JACK: I wanted the car.
BECK: I wanted the woman.
TEAGUE, LUCKY, & JACK: We know!
ANGI: Who’s your favorite villain?
JACKSON: The Joker. Heath Ledger’s version was genius.
LUCKY: Hell,
yes. That dude was scary as shit – and
I’ve seen scary.
ANGI: What is your biggest vice?
LUCKY: Keeping secrets. After my years with the Marines,
lying comes too easily to me sometimes.
ANGI: How is it working with hot guys
and sexy women all day?
ROBIN: I assume you are not asking me about the evil day job!! Working with
these guys is a blast. They keep me on
my toes but I enjoy putting them through the wringer when it comes to love.
ANGI’S GOTTA ASK: What else is on that bucket list of yours?
ROBIN'S GOTTA
ANSWER: A tattoo. I
have it designed (a heart made up with the intertwining names of my hubby and
kids). I just have to convince the Main Man not to roll his eyes every time he
looks at it – he’s not a fan of tattoos.
