EXCERPT - R21 - The Upgrade, Eve Summers

Excerpt

From where he lay on his stomach, naked except for a small towel, Timothy could see the big tranquil blue of the ocean.

“Is this hard enough?” murmured the massage girl in her melodious Pacific accent. Her dark slim fingers pressed into Timothy’s knotted shoulders with startling intensity.

And with a startling aphrodisiac quality.

He couldn’t suppress the groan. “Mmmmm.”

“Good?”

It was bloody perfect. The exotic smell of sandalwood oil seeped into his tired body. Timothy closed his eyes, letting all the stress of the last sixteen months melt away.

Shoulders, back, buttocks. The fingers teased his upper thighs before moving on lower. Calves, feet, toes. The ticklish yet highly arousing spaces between the toes.

It was supposed to be a relaxing massage, yet Timothy’s mind was beginning to turn to matters that he’d had no time for in his busy schedule lately.

3 Things I Didn't Know About Romance Readers

  • Divorced women read far fewer romance novels than single and married women do.
  • Romance readers buy more e-books than any other genre's readers. 
  • Romance readers buy more paperback books than e-books.

If you like Linda Howard and Jen Crusie....

I love Linda Howard's novels for the thrilling plots and Jennifer Crusie's humorous dialogues. I've read all their books. Now what?

A quick Google search reveals that Crusie fans should try:
  • Janet Evanovich (yes, although Stephanie Plum is getting stale)
  • Helen Fielding (no, her heroine doesn't grab life by the throat)
  • Sophie Kinsella (yes, although her books as Madeleine Wickham are miles better)
  • Jennifer Weiner (yes to the humour, no to the writing style)
  • Susan Elizabeth Phillips (will try)
  • Katie Fforde (tried but couldn't get into the book).
Linda Howard's fans, meanwhile, should turn to people I've never even heard of, apart from Nora Roberts.

Help, anybody?
