Hi everyone –
I’m continuing with another teaser from Book 3 in the Australian Sports Romance Series – Entangled Moments.
Enjoy ♥♥
This week’s Hook …
“I wouldn’t,” she disagreed with more force than she had intended.
Letting out a throaty laugh, he opened the door. “You would so.”
With a gentle push on her back, he moved her inside, and Sarah walked straight towards her bedroom with a mix of disappointment, anger, and…relief.
“Night, Marky.”
“No hot chocolate?”
She stopped and looked over her shoulder, considering the idea of a nice warm drink as well as Markus’ company. He moved towards her, and, again, a look in his blue eyes sent a rush through her that went right to her toes. All her nerves tingled and were on full alert when he lifted his thumb and touched her cheek to wipe a tear away. She was crying.
Letting out an exasperated sigh, she cuddled up against his chest, with his strong arms around her.
“You should’ve told me,” she whispered.
“Which part? That you forgot about the hot chocolate?”
She gave him a soft slap on his arm. “About Timmy.”
As he placed a light kiss on her forehead, he held her even closer. “It wasn’t for me to say anything.”
Blurb:
Markus and Sarah’s lives couldn’t be more different…
After three years away as a goalkeeper for an English soccer club, Markus DeLeon is happy to be back in Melbourne, back with his family and friends, including Sarah. He has known her since childhood, and has often provided her with a safe place from the teasing of other children and the troubles of a broken home. Yet, events after attending their friends’ wedding set off a shift in their relationship and questions, which neither Markus nor Sarah know how to approach.
Sarah Winter caught her boyfriend cheating on her, and not for the first time Markus offers her a much-needed shoulder to cry on. This time, however, an attraction between them intensifies, ending in a passionate afternoon, and Markus doesn’t know how to handle this new side of their friendship and flees to the coast. Sarah, unsure as well about the recent events, is surprised by his sudden departure, but is soon sidetracked by misunderstandings and a family emergency.
But sometimes risking what you have means you might lose everything…
These two are like magnets trying to fight physics. 🙂
