Dangerous
Currents, a contemporary romance with suspense elements.
Blurb:
When
a costly mistake ends Malorie Montgomery’s career, she returns to
Cape Cod in search of a fresh start. But her plans for a new—and
quiet—life are quickly derailed when she makes a grisly discovery
in the woods, and her screams bring the one person from her past
she’d hoped to avoid. Dean Slater, the ex-boyfriend who broke her
heart in high school, now lives in the beachfront community that was
supposed to be her haven…and he’s just as hot as he was six years
ago.
With
his rough background, Dean always knew he wasn’t good enough for
the kind, intelligent beauty who claimed his heart, but somehow he’d
believed their love was strong enough to survive anything—until the
tragic night she turned her back on him when he needed her trust the
most. Despite their painful history, Dean can’t resist the
instinct to protect her, especially when it becomes apparent there’s
a killer in their town.
Their
former chemistry soon reignites, but Malorie has long accepted that
her dark family secret has destined her to a life alone. And when
she uncovers evidence that makes her the killer’s target, a deadly
confrontation threatens to destroy any possibility of a second
chance.
An
excerpt:
He took a step
closer, eliminating the small distance between them. “I wasn’t
about to let him hurt you.” He paused, his strained expression
revealing an internal struggle. Clenching his jaw, he closed his
eyes for a moment. When he opened them, their green depths flashed
with something like defiance, and he cursed under his breath. “The
thing is,” he finally continued, his tone rough with barely
harnessed emotion, “I still feel…protective of you. I want to
keep you safe.”
Her lungs stopped
working. Alarm bells jangled in a distant part of her mind as he
leaned over her. This was dangerous. She
was dangerous. Swallowing past the knot in her throat, she forced
the words out. “You don’t need to feel that way.”
His hands gripped
her shoulders, setting her skin on fire. He lowered his head,
bringing his lips inches from hers. “I don’t think I can control
it.”
She couldn’t move.
She simply didn’t have the willpower—or the desire—to stop
this from happening. Every cell in her body was clamoring with need
for him; it was a force of its own. All coherent thought fled as the
moment stretched out in an agonizing slide toward the inevitable.
