A hurricane! Just what Linda Morrison needs to welcome her to her new home in Florida. Fearing her recent purchase may end up a bundle of sticks, she’s relieved when a hero swoops in wearing a yellow slicker and offering help. Carlos Mejia is eye candy for sure, but she needs those muscles to help board up the window. Together they ride out the storm raging outside, but inside there’s more than a little electricity in the air.Excerpt:
A face materialized from beneath the slicker. Masculine eyes, as dark as onyx peered at her. “I was wondering the same.”
He swept back his hood, allowing his ebony hair to dance in the blustery current. His square jaw and tanned face softened with a smile. “I’m your neighbor from down the street. I thought perhaps you might need some assistance. My sister, Marcie, tells me you live alone. If this storm notches itself up a bit, we’re in for a turbulent night.”
Against warning bells about strangers, she sought escape from the elements. She knew his sister…maybe, the name rang vaguely familiar. “Please, come in.” Linda gestured, but kept a tight grip on the door to keep it from slamming into the wall. Her heart thudded. Would her murder top the evening news? She could just see the headline now, “Stupid woman opens door to stranger during storm.”

What a stunning cover...I can feel the wind whipping through my hair. :) Thanks for featuring my book for the sale. If I didn't already have it, I'd buy it.
Ginger, I bought and read Hurricane Warning while sitting warm and dry with rain bucketing down. It was the perfect story for a dark wet night.
I was just glad we didnt' have the high winds. We have had too much rain. Summer is one day old and we are inundated with rain.
Thanks for a great read!
