Mickie Sherwood's Like Slow Sweet Molasses - Sweet, spicy
romance—a heartbeat away!
“Hmmm?” She
moaned miserably.
A rush of air
expelled from his lungs.
“Don’t move,”
he ordered as she attempted to rise on her own. “Let me check you over.”
Carefully examining her limbs, satisfied there were no broken bones, he probed
the tender spot near her temple where an angry lump already raised under the
smooth skin on her face.
She stirred
again, pushing herself to a sitting position and forcing Chance to scoot back.
It was a losing battle to remain vertical when gravity yanked her down in an
unconscious heap.
Chance let go
an exasperated breath and called 911.
Their
acquaintance was less than a few hours old. However, if he was any judge of
character, her unpredictable nature surfaced on two separate occasions during
that time. This was his fault. He’d given her a direct order. What else did he
expect a headstrong woman of her caliber to do except disregard the command?
Now, hop on over to your next Sneak Peek Sunday excerpt.
