Roni’s dreams of becoming a contemporary dancer were
smashed under the brutal rage of her ex-husband's fists. Getting divorced and
starting over at the age of twenty-two was never her plan, but maybe in Texas,
she'll find her path. When the town's local player, Rich, opens a Rec Center,
she sees a way to rekindle her dancing dreams...and maybe have a little fun
with her sexy new boss.
Rich never expected to fulfill his dreams in the town he planned to leave behind, but that's just what he's doing. His reputation as a noncommittal ladies' man might make it challenging to earn respect in the business world, but he's willing to prove that he's serious. In fact, when it comes to pursuing Roni, he's more than willing. But she's taking a page out of his book, not wanting to risk another relationship. Can he convince her that his playboy days are over and that she can trust him with her heart?

Excerpt
She
pushed the door open and peered inside. Her jaw dropped and her eyes seemed to
freeze open at the site before her.
There was a makeshift bed in the
corner, boxes strewn about the room, and a door that led into a small bathroom.
In the center of the room Rich stood in nothing but basketball shorts. His very
toned and naturally tanned body glistened with sweat as he worked the speed bag
before him, his fist moving rapidly as they punched.
The quick curl of lust in her belly
shocked Roni. She’d never had such an intense and immediate reaction to a man
before. Even more shocking was the fact that it was Rich that caused her body
to suddenly feel infused with liquid heat.
He hadn’t heard her enter. The music
was too loud, and he was totally focused on pounding the bag.
Roni couldn’t look away. She felt a
visceral need to touch. As the muscles rippled under his skin with each
movement, her hands itched to feel.
Roni shook
her head briefly. What was she thinking? This was Rich. A player. A Flirt. The
exact opposite of the kind of guy she needed in her life.
Someone
needed to explain that to her legs, she thought. They were about to give out.
Suddenly she realized that the
movement before her had stopped. She shouted out, “Hey,” to get Rich’s
attention, before he turned and caught her staring at him. The last thing she
needed was for Rich to think she thought he was hot!
Rich wiped at his brow and turned, a
grin spreading across his face when he saw her in the doorway. He held up a
finger, to tell her to give him a second. He crossed the room and bent to turn
down his iPod.
Roni stifled a grown at the sight of
his ass as he bent over. Who knew a man’s ass could be so freakin’ tight? And
his back… Good Lord!
Roni composed herself as he turned
back towards her, but couldn’t help the jitters of happiness in her stomach,
when he didn’t reach for a shirt.
“What’s up, Roni?” He seemed truly
happy to see her.
“Hey,” She responded, trying to
focus on his face. His brown hair was curling at the ends, damp with sweat. She
didn’t understand why she found that so attractive. Maybe it had been too long
since she’d had sex. It shouldn’t feel like she had to make a concerted effort
not to throw herself at him. “Um, not much. I hope I’m not intruding.”

It's notthe most original book I've ever read about, but from the Excerpt, the author's style is so funny and amazing, I definetely would love to read the book. Thank you for the giveaway :)
pai mult succes celor care isi doresc sa se inscrie la aces tconcurs...hm..cartea asta am mai vazuto si pare una destul de interesanta :))
De acord cu furelise. Am mai vazut astfel de carti si nu mi se pare o idee foarte originala, dar daca as face rost de ea, as citi-o. pare totusi interesanta povestea.
Eu una aș citi-o cu toate că nu e tocmai cea mai originală idee!
Mulțumim de giveaway! :)
Pare draguta din ce-am citit in excerpt pentru ca asa ideea e cam "fumata". Insa ca orice idee depinde si cum e pusa in aplicare; deci o trec pe lista mea.
Daca as avea-o si eu as citi-o :))
Poate cine stie cum da norocl peste mine si o castig :)
andreea poate o vei castiga ;)) ...acum subiectul poate nu e tocmai original , darsa fim seriosi acum;)) pare draguta
O alta poveste de viata,un divort ce naruie visele... E un cliseu,dar prinde la public. Chiar daca povestea nu mai e asa originala as citi-o fiindca trebuie sa aiba acolo ceva mai deosebit de alte carti. :) Ar fi o lectura placuta!
Din cate am citit in acest post, cartea suna ca o lectura care ar prinde bine la orice moment. E un fel de pauza (mai mult o usurare) de la cartile fantasy care sunt citite in majoritatea timpului. As vrea foarte mult sa o citesc, dar momentan am multe altele in biblioteca pe care s-a asezat praful. Poate dupa ce termin o parte din ele, imi voi comanda si aceasta carte. Succes tuturor celor care participa la concurs!
Pare draguta, numai buna cand nu ai altceva de facut.
Mi se pare o carte foarte frumoasa de citit.Sper sa am ocazia sa o pot citi.
Chiar daca nu este un subiect foarte original, nici o carte nu este la fel. Toate difera si asta depinde si de autor. Asa ca da, mi-ar place sa o citesc
sincera sa fiu si mie mi-ar face placeresa o citesc , adica ..este intr-un fel desprins din viata reala plus mai puina fantezie, de lacare am hotarat putin sa iau o pauza nu de tot, ci catsa termin provocarea cartilor clasice ..
nici mie. nu prea mai imi plac cartile astea. sunt prea siropoase
cred ca majoritatea subiectelor de carti au fost abordate, acum depinde de autor cum dezvolta ideea, poate fi un succes sau un esec
