Accidental Sex Goddess
by Lexi Ryan

BLURB:
Promotions
director Reese Regan isn’t a sex goddess and doesn’t want to be. But the job of
her dreams requires enrollment in the renowned Sex Goddess 101. To avoid a trip
to the unemployment line, Reese must pass the program and become Chicago’s next
seductress—or at least fake it convincingly. Her best friend, the ruggedly sexy
contractor Ben Hawk, helps her “fake” her way through the program, and the heat
between them flares. When trust is broken and secrets are revealed, it appears
they’ve traded years-long friendship for temporary passion. Will faking
something so important cost them their chance at something real?

Excerpt:
“I assume
you’ve moved past your drunken I want to be a slut plans.”
“Oh, I
haven’t moved past it. I just know better sober than to believe I can do it.”
She shrugged. “I’m not sex goddess material. Life goes on.”
Ben
stared at her for a moment, then slugged back the rest of his coffee and headed
toward the basement without preamble. Reese followed, humming softly under her
breath, a sound low enough to sling shot his mind straight back to his fantasy,
to the idea of her under his hands…his mouth.
“Hey,
grumpy,” she said when they reached the bottom of the stairs. She tugged on his
shoulder until he turned to face her. “Anything I can do to improve your mood
this morning?”
“I can
think of a few things.” He couldn’t help himself. He let his gaze travel slowly
down her body, lingering at her curves and traveling so slowly back to her face
he had enough time to picture every inch of her bare, exposed, ready for him.
When he
returned his eyes to her face, a deep red blush stained her cheeks. “Ben!” She
landed a soft punch to his solar plexus.
Ben
lifted a shoulder in a half shrug. “You asked.”
“When was
the last time you got laid?”
He knew
down to the day, but he wasn’t about to share the truth with Reese—not when the
date was just as significant in her life. “A few months.”
“Well,
you need to do something about that.”
“You
volunteering?”

LOL! Hi, Mary! She gets a job as the promotions director for the company that offers the SG101 program...and therefore, she needs to take SG101 herself. :) Thanks for coming by today!
DeleteGood morning, everyone! Thank you so much to Cecile for featuring Accidental Sex Goddess today!
ReplyDeleteHow are you all today? I'm FANTASTIC. :) It's been such an amazing week. This week, I saw Text Appeal hit the top 100 at Barnes & Noble and Amazon, I went to an AWESOME (though exhausting) training for work, and--cherry on top?--tonight my hubby and I are leaving town for the night and leaving the kids with his mom.
Do you have any exciting plans for your weekend? What was the best part of your week?

ReplyDeletegalaschick78(at)gmail(dot)com
Gala, thanks for asking! Like most writers, I love to gush about my favorite books. :) I read a lot of sexy contemporaries (pretty obsessed with Victoria Dahl at the moment and can't recommend the Donovan Brothers series enough), and I also really enjoy suspense (Lisa Gardner is my absolute favorite but Kate Watterson has a new series out that looks soooo good!). I'd love to hear your favorites!

*devilish smile* I hope you love it, June. My mom is reading it (she's not exactly a fan of the genre, so she usually doesn't) and she called me the other day to say, "You know, you're really funny!" I laughed. She was so surprised! ;) Enjoy!
