Excerpt
Rising to his feet, he held out his hand.
“Jared Armstrong. Pleased to meet you.”
He towered over her diminutive frame,
six-feet-six to her five-feet-four. She studied him a moment, reached out, and
shook his hand briefly. “Abigail’s enough for now.”
He sat back in his seat, forcing himself to
appear relaxed. “Okay.”
He regretted not pulling her chair out and
seating her, but she was a prospective employer, not his date. A good thing
too, since she didn’t seem to have an ounce of vanity or dress sense. He sipped
at his water and waited for her to speak.
Blushing, she sucked on her lower lip. “This
is awkward. Can I ask you some questions?”
He nodded. “I don’t guarantee answering them,
but ask away.”
God, he wished she’d get on with it, but she
studied the unopened menu as though her life depended on it. Finally, she
lifted her head. “Are you married?”
His eyes narrowed. “Your advert said no ties.
I’m single, HIV free, and I don’t screw anyone for cash.”
She choked on her drink, coughing and
splattering water over the table. Jared watched and waited, unwilling to make
it easier for her when she was the one who placed the advert.
Across the table from him, Abigail curled her
hands into fists and laid them on her lap. Her smile faded and her voice
trembled. “Will you marry me?”
“Are you pregnant?” he shot back.
Her cheeks turned scarlet. “No. In fact, I
came on my period two days ago. But I do need a husband. I know I’m not what
you imagined in a wife, but I’m willing to pay a $75,000 advance as well as
house, feed, and clothe you for two years. After that, I’ll pay you another
$150,000 when we divorce.”
He stared at her intently, trying to decide if
she needed therapy—or perhaps a few weeks in the local insane asylum. “You’re
serious?”
She took a sip of mineral water. “I am.”
His eyes narrowed, and his forehead furrowed
in anger. “I’ll feed and clothe myself. Can I still put time in with my
business, or should I get a job local to where you live?”
When she finally smiled, it felt as though the
sun had come out on a cloudy day.
Putting her glass on the table, she took
looked anywhere but at him. “I’m glad you want to do so. In fact, it’s one of
the reasons I chose you. You have values and goals. All I have is an insane
great-aunt, or I did until recently.”
“Tell me about it,” he demanded.
Kryssie Fortune
writes the sort of hot sexy books she loves to read. If she can sneak a dragon
into her paranormal books she will. Her paranormal heroes are muscular werewolves,
arrogant Fae, or BDSM loving dragons.
Kryssie likes her contemporary heroes ex-military and dominant. Her heroines are kick ass females who can hold their own against whatever life - or Kryssie - throws at them.
Kryssie's pet hates are unhappy endings, and a series that end on a cliff hanger.
Her books are all stand alone even when part of series. Plot always comes before sex, but when her heroines and heroes get together, the sex is explosive and explicit. One review called it downright sensual.
