Excerpt:
Suddenly she realized what was happening—the moans
were coming from her. She needed to stop. This was a bad idea. She knew he was
an expert at making women melt. She forced her brain to wrest control from her
body, and pulled away.
“Sophie, don’t,” he pleaded.
“I can’t do this.”
He cradled her face in his hands. “Sophie, we’re
both adults. This is something we both want. I know you want this—maybe not as
bad as I do, but you want it.” He kissed her neck and whispered, “Say it, say
it…please say it.”
She looked tortured. If he persisted, he could wear
her down. But he didn’t want that. What he wanted was to take her to bed, take
her body to new heights, visit places she’d never been before. He wanted to
exorcise the painful memory of her ex-husband, snuff out the memory of every
man she’d ever been with.
He wanted to enjoy her pleasure, wanted her to
enjoy him, with no regrets. If he pressed her now, there’d be regrets in the
morning, lots of regrets. Regrets he couldn’t afford, because he meant to have
her again. One night with her would never be enough to satisfy him. He didn’t
want her forever, didn’t want anyone forever, but he wanted her for a little
while. Just a little while.
BLURB:
Meadows Shore is the childhood home of the five Clayton sisters and the
six Harrington brothers, the family seat where these irresistible characters
gather regularly…or whenever they need the comfort of Portuguese home cooking
and the love and wisdom of elder women.
After
Sophie Clayton catches her husband in bed with a young intern, she creates a
new life for herself as the executive director of a failing domestic violence
agency. It’s the perfect job for a woman born to fix everything. A friend’s
broken heart, a tattered agency, a flat tire—she’ll roll up her sleeves and
make it as good as new. Sophie rarely encounters anything she can’t fix…until
she meets the devastatingly handsome and insufferably arrogant, Max Parker. One
of Boston’s most eligible bachelors, he’s never without a stunning young woman
on his arm and in his bed.
When
Sophie’s forced to deal with Max, sparks fly, and somewhere in the crossfire of
verbal daggers and clever barbs, she discovers his darkest secret.

Charles is the author of the multi-titled Meadows Shore Series that chronicles
the lives and loves of the Clayton-Harrington family. She invites you to visit
their beloved Meadows Shore nestled in the charming seaside town of Fair
Harbor, where you’ll enjoy love, laughter, loyalty, and an abundance of
mouth-watering food, Portuguese style.
After
being a confirmed city-girl for more than thirty-five years, Eva moved to
beautiful western Massachusetts in 2014. There, she found herself living in the
woods with no job, no friends (unless you count the turkeys, deer, and coyotes
roaming the backyard), and no children underfoot, wondering what on earth she’d
been thinking. But as it turned out, it was the perfect setting to take all
those yarns spinning in her head and weave them into a romantic tale.
When
she’s not writing, trying to squeeze information out of her tight-lipped sons,
or playing with the two cutest dogs you’ve ever seen, Eva’s creating chapters
in her own love story.
