A Sterling Affairby: Susan Palmquist
TO PURCHASE
Widow Deana Adams gets the shock of her life when she discovers a naked man in her living room. It's an
even bigger shock when she learns Sir Ian Ashby is over 200 years old. Wanting nothing more than to return him to his grave, Deana soon realizes that Sir Ian offers her a second chance at love.
Excerpt:
Deana gingerly walked over to Sir Ian. What kind of phenomenon was he, a phantom, a ghost? She studied him more carefully as she got closer to him. He looked like the average man; no, not average. He was above average. "I'm sorry for this, but maybe you should get dressed while we sort this mess out. I just don't know what to think of the whole thing." She didn't want to step too close to him. She stretched her arms out, hoping he would reach for the clothing. He didn't take the clothes. Instead, she felt him grab her wrist and pull her toward him. She felt foolish, but she screamed out, wondering what he was going to do to her. He pulled her in closer and peered down at her. She looked up at him and noticed he had big brown eyes. She expected him to feel like ice, but his hand was warm. And he was alive, so alive that she could feel his breath on her cheek. Todd and Amy, and this gentleman, must be playing some kind of joke on her. They couldn't have possibly have brought him back from the dead. He was warm, he was breathing. He just didn't look like a dead man. This man was near perfect.
