On Teaser Thursday, I'm sharing a teaser from my Sweet & Sexy Romance titled: Naked Attraction.
 


 

Please enjoy.


Only three weeks ago, Mofe had been rocking the fast tempo beats in a chic beach club in Zakynthos, a Greek Island in the Ionian Sea. A holiday he had planned for two years, now cut short by his brother’s trial. The wild partying in Greece was not the issue that stuck in his mind. It was a certain woman’s behaviour.

 

Dancing in a pencil thin pair of red high heels on the bar table on the first night was a woman with golden skin colour and long black hair with golden streaks. Dressed in a tiny red lacy bra and thong, the woman had every man gasping with her hip-wriggling and body-twisting dance steps.
 

Unable to stop himself at the time, Mofe had taken pictures of the woman. Throughout her sultry dance routine, he had tried to make eye contact with her across the packed room, but it had been impossible with the multi-coloured blinking lights.
 
Something in the woman’s eyes had reached out to him. Not that he was sure of what it was specifically. Although the woman had danced with passion and confidence, she seemed a little lost, to him. Lost, in a sense he could not explain. But he understood it.

With his heart pounding in his chest wall, Mofe raced across the hall and called out. “Hello District Judge, please give me a minute of your time.”
 
The security man stepped forward, blocking Mofe’s approach and put out both hands. “You have to book an appointment, sir. I told you earlier.”
 
“We met in Greece, your honour,” Mofe said when the judge ignored his comment and turned her back on him.
 
He did not see her face, but her footsteps in medium black heels slowed before she hurried away. And Mofe was convinced he had found the dancing woman from the club in Zakynthos.
 

“I already told you, Mr. Awani, you can’t see the judge without an appointment. We have to follow protocol here.”
 
Moments later, the desk phone by the security man shrilled. With a warning look at Mofe, the security man picked up the receiver.
 
“Yes, Ma’am,” the man nodded and gave Mofe a glance over. “Okay, Ma’am. Right away, I will.”
 
 
And when he dropped the receiver, the security man grinned. “It seems it is your lucky day. You have been granted access to the judge’s chamber.”
 
The sickening feeling from earlier turned into something more intense. “Where can I find the honourable judge?” Mofe asked in his most contrite voice, although inwardly, he laughed at the image of a barely dressed judge wriggling her waist to the loud music on a bar table.
“Walk straight down the hall, turn right, keep walking to room eight one five.”
 
“Thank you,” said Mofe with a quick nod.
 
With each step, Mofe’s heart beat a little faster reminding him of when he had been summoned to the head teacher’s office in primary school. Only this time, he was about to face the woman he had been searching for and he had no idea how she would respond.
 
When he stopped in front of the room labelled eight one five, Mofe twisted the knob and pushed without knocking. He did it on a hunch. It was not a habit for him not to knock before entering an office. But in this situation, he felt inclined to break every rule.
 
“Who are you?” asked the woman seated in a black, leather high-back chair with her back to the door. It was the same authoritative voice she put up in the courtroom.
 
Good. She did not ask why he did not knock. It seemed they had low expectations of each other. With her exotic looks and skin colour, she appeared of mixed heritage. But from her British accent, he could not determine her race.
 
“The question is why would a magistrate judge be spotted dancing on a bar table in nothing but a bra and thong in one of Europe’s beach clubs? And then appear serious on Monday morning in a London courtroom wearing a wig and black gown?” While he waited for her answer, he took a passing look around her chambers.
 
 
The gold and black name plaque on the desk indicated her name was District Judge Ronke Oni.

Blurb

A quiet bookworm, Tangela Holloway has always been content working at her an independent bookstore in the sleepy little town of
Eufaula, Alabama. But lately, Tangie discovers that she’s bored and frustrated, especially since the man she’s been dating for two years seems to care more about his business than he does her. When Reese Turner rides into town on his Harley, Tangie’s heart feels like it’s beating for the first time. She not only sees the most exciting man she’s ever met, but also a chance to experience something other than backyard BBQs and fishing at the lake.

After ending a drama-filled relationship with a high-maintenance fashion model, Reese wants nothing more than to make a road trip to Florida with his motorcycle club. Never did he expect a quick stop at a small town bookstore would introduce him to a shy bookworm who makes him re-think his vow to remain single and unattached.

Excerpt


He didn’t move to leave, and I suddenly felt uncomfortable with the way he stared at me. “Is there something else I can help you with?”

He cleared his throat. “Yes. Can you tell me where I can get lunch?”

“There’s Arby’s, KFC, Church’s Chicken, and McDonald’s up yonder on Eufaula Street.”

 “I mean real food. I ate Mickey D’s for breakfast, and after being on the road all morning, I’m starving.”

“Well, I’m prejudiced, but Karly’s Kafé around the corner is where I eat whenever I don’t bring lunch from home.”

That smile again. “It’s lunchtime now. Are you going there today?”

I checked the clock and returned his smile. “I’d planned to.”

“Can you show me where it is?”

Was he flirting with me, or could this confident, laid-back manner be his everyday personality? It had been so long since a man flirted with me, I wasn’t sure, but what harm could there be in walking there with him in broad daylight?  Karly’s was a little over three hundred steps away. I knew this piece of trivia thanks to my FitBit. “Okay. I have to lock up, because Cindy, my assistant doesn’t come in until later.”

He propped a lean hip against the counter, placed the leather backpack that hung over one brawny shoulder on the countertop and looked inside. “I need to make a call.”

After I unplugged the coffeemaker and hit the power button on the stereo, I listened as he spoke.

“Spence, I’m going to get lunch somewhere else. If you want to head out, I’ll catch up with you.”

Reese Turner smiled. “Yeah, there is. Okay. Later.” He returned the phone to the well-worn bag. It wasn’t until he turned around that I realized his hair was pulled back in a ponytail. Long hair on a man never appealed to me, but it actually looked good on him. The texture testified of something in his bloodline. Native American, perhaps. It was evident that it wasn’t chemically straightened.

I grabbed my purse from beneath the counter.

“Nice place you have here. Been here long?”

“Thank you. This is my third year.” I took out my keys. “Okay, I’m ready.”
 

“Is it okay to leave my bike here?”
 

“Of course. Nobody is going to bother it.”

“All right, I’ll take your word on that.” He stretched out a very muscular arm toward the front door. “Lead the way.”

We stepped out onto the sidewalk. A huge black and silver motorcycle sat at the curb, gleaming in the midday sun. I stepped closer to examine it. “That’s a big bike.”
 
He shrugged. “I’m a big man.”

That’s for sure. I put my sign on the front door, locked it, and we headed to Eufaula Street. As I walked beside him, I had to take two steps for each of his.

Miss Cordelia, the flower shop owner and probably the oldest store owner in town, was busy adding water to the display she kept outside her shop. She paused and gaped as we approached.

“Good afternoon, Tangie,” she said, eyeing Reese with a suspicious squint. “On your way to lunch?”

“Yes, ma’am. It’s about that time.” I had the distinct feeling she expected me to introduce him, but the situation didn’t call for it, so I smiled and kept walking.

“Was it my imagination, or did she just give me the evil eye?”

“Yeah, she did, but it’s only because she’s looking out for me. I’m one of the youngest shop owners in town.” He didn’t need to know the reason why. Miss Cordelia had never seen me with a man other than Johnnie, whom I’d been dating for the past two years. Everyone in town also knew him, because we grew up together.


We turned the corner onto Eufaula Street where Karly’s Kafé sat on the ground floor of a large three-story brick building in need of tender loving care. The first floor housed several businesses, but the top two floors remained vacant. A For Sale banner had adorned the second level railing for more than a year, but the owners hadn’t received any offers. The building needed too much work.

My handsome customer held the door as I preceded him into the café. “Are you eating here, or getting something to take out?”

 “Most days I eat here. It’s good to get a break from being in the store all day.”

“Do you mind if I join you, or are you meeting bae for lunch?”

“No. I usually sit over there.” I indicated a table by the front window and let the bae comment slide.
