Synopsis:
New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby continues to delight the senses with the latest novel in her delectable Fusion series.

As the take-charge wine bar manager of Seduction, Portland's hottest new restaurant, Katrina Meyers is the definition of no-nonsense, and she isn't afraid of anything. Well, almost anything: she hates to fly. When she's forced to travel on a death trap with wings, the turbulence from hell has her reaching for any safe haven—including the incredibly handsome guy sitting next to her.

Ryan "Mac" MacKenzie hasn't been able to get his sexy seatmate out of his head. The way she clung to him stirred something inside him he didn't think existed: tenderness. As the owner of a successful wine touring company, Mac thinks he's got a handle on what life can throw at him and he's not prepared for any surprises, especially in the feelings department. And when he brings a tour into Seduction, he sees the petite spitfire he just can't forget.

Mac is determined to discover what else they have in common besides fine wine and the inability to keep their hands off each other. But what will it take for two stubborn people to realize that what they have is so much more than a hot chemistry between the sheets and to admit to falling in love…?


      

*Excerpt*
 “Have you flown before, Kat?”
              “No.” I swallow hard and tighten my hands into fists.
              “Okay, take a deep breath,” he says. He’s not touching me, which is good because I’d have to break his nose, and this is already stressful enough. But his voice is soothing. “Good. Take another one. Miss, can we get a bottle of water, please?”
              I just keep breathing. The flight attendant returns with a little baby bottle of water, which Mac uncaps and holds out for me.
              “Take a drink of this. Just a small sip.” I comply, the cold water feeling good on my throat. I feel ridiculous. This flight is full of people who are not having panic attacks.
              “I’m sorry,” I whisper. “This is my biggest fear.”
              “I can tell,” he says gently, and I raise my gaze to meet his. He’s a handsome guy, his short hair styled nicely, his jaw firm, eyes direct. He’s tall, with long arms and legs and a lean body. “How are you feeling?
              “Better,” I reply, surprised to find it true. “The water helped. Thank you.”
              “No problem. Are you going to Napa Valley on vacation?”
              “Work,” I reply, shaking my head. “I’m attending a conference.”
              “So you’re a wine enthusiast then?”
              “You could say that,” I reply with a smile. “I own a wine bar in Portland.”
              His eyes narrow for just a moment. “Really? Which one?”
              “The one inside Seduction.”
              “I’ve heard great things about that place.”
              I smile widely now, intensely proud of the restaurant that my four friends and I have built from the ground up. Seduction is our baby, our pride and joy.
              “That’s nice to hear,” I reply. “You’ve never been?”
              “Not yet, but I’ll make a point to go the next time I’m in the area.”
              So he doesn’t live in Portland.
              Bummer. Mac is one guy I wouldn’t mind running into again.



"Wicked hot, charming, and wittingly captivating. Kristen Proby made me blush several times reading this sexy love story." ~ Audrey Carlan, #1 NYT Bestselling Author

R.L. Griffin's Favorites of 2013: Final Week

Welcome to R.L. Griffin's Favorites of 2013 Contest! 
We are now into the final week of the contest in which R.L. will be giving away another favorite book!

And, the fun continues...


This week's favorite is...

Vain (Book 1 of the Seven Deadly series)
Author: Fisher Amelie

Summary from Goodreads
If you’re looking for a story about a good, humble girl, who’s been hurt by someone she thought she could trust, only to find out she’s not as vulnerable as she thought she was and discovers an empowering side of herself that falls in love with the guy who helps her find that self, blah, blah, blah...then you’re gonna’ hate my story.

Because mine is not the story you read every time you bend back the cover of the latest trend novel. It’s not the “I can do anything, now that I’ve found you/I’m misunderstood but one day you’ll find me irresistible because of it” tale. Why? Because, if I was being honest with you, I’m a complete witch. There’s nothing redeeming about me. I’m a friend using, drug abusing, sex addict from Los Angeles. I’m every girlfriend’s worst nightmare and every boy’s fantasy.

I’m Sophie Price...And this is the story about how I went from the world’s most envied girl to the girl no one wanted around and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.


There Is No Light In Darkness is Available Now
