Exquisite
Betrayal
by A.M. Hargrove
Released: December 2013
A male Romance
Author… a convention in Vegas… a female book blogger… a goal to lose her
virginity… what happens when you mix all the above?
Fallon McKinley is
headed to Vegas for the Wicked Wenches Romance Con and losing her virginity is
only one of her goals. The other is to meet her favorite author of romance
novels, R.T. Sinclair. What she doesn’t realize is that the sexy green-eyed god
she rams into at the airport is the real R.T. When they keep running into each
other, she’s shocked, but excited, because the attraction is irresistible.
Ryland Thomas
Sinclair doesn’t want anyone to know his true identity. He’s the author that
all women love, but everyone thinks he’s a female. He hides his persona behind
the public face of his twin sister, keeping his own a secret. But after meeting
the lovely Fallon, his intentions to avoid a relationship come to a screeching
halt. She’s put an unwanted kink into his perfectly laid out plans. His unusual
reaction surprises him because after a heart-shredding breakup a few years ago,
he’s managed to avoid women at all costs.
Resisting Fallon becomes
more difficult than he imagines. Soon things are spiraling
out of control, until a major miscommunication has Fallon walking out of his
home and his life. Will Ryland Thomas succeed in losing the woman he loves? Or
can he win her back?
Teaser #6—Explicit
My body is screaming for him, but
it’s so much more than that. My heart wants him, too. Somewhere between
Christmas and our weekends together, I’ve fallen in complete and absolute love
with Ryland Thomas Sinclair. How do I know this? That’s easy; it’s right in
front of me. His touch sends me to the moon. The sight of him brings me
unimaginable joy. When I hear his voice, my body hums. Everything in me
responds when I inhale his scent. The taste of him when we kiss is beyond
anything I’ve ever known. Most of all, he’s seeped into my heart, wedging
himself within it, and I don’t ever want him to leave. If he does, there will
be a space so huge that I’ll never be whole, never be myself again; I know that
Fallon will cease to exist.
I stop breathing when this
thought takes over my mind and he senses the change in me.
“Everything okay there,
dangerous girl?”
“Ryland Thomas.” My voice is
husky and filled with all sorts of emotion.
He stands and cups my face.
“What is it, love?” Concern has claimed his voice.
“I—I’m
in love with you.” I swallow, not knowing what his reaction will be. I don’t
have to wait long at all because he almost immediately rewards me with the most
dazzling smile.
“Damn time you figured it out.
I’ve been in love with you pretty much since the beginning. Ever since I
realized I’d been such a damn wanker. I love you, Fallon McKinley. I’ve loved
you from a distance and now I can finally love you properly, like I was meant
to love you from the start.”
I’m suddenly encased in his
warmth as his mouth is on mine. Our clothes are torn away by frantic hands
while we rush at each other with desperation, as though we’ve been seeking this
for centuries, even though I know that’s such a silly thought. He picks me up and
he’s carrying me inside now.
“No hot tub?”
“Not on your life. I’m going to
make love to you, in every way imaginable, starting in my bed. I want to see
your face, love, as I slide into you. And I don’t want the dark sky to hide any
of you. You’re all mine tonight, and I intend to watch every bit of you.”

Information
One day, on her way home from work as a sales manager, A. M. Hargrove,
realized her life was on fast forward and if she didn't do something soon, it
would quickly be too late to write that work of fiction she had been dreaming
of her whole life. So, she rolled down the passenger window of her
fabulous (not) company car and tossed out her leather briefcase. Luckily,
the pedestrian in the direct line of fire was a dodge ball pro and had über
quick reflexes enabling him to avoid getting bashed in the head. Feeling
a tad guilty about the near miss, A. M. made a speedy turn down a deserted side
street before tossing her crummy, outdated piece-of-you-know-what laptop out
the window. She breathed a liberating sigh of relief, picked up her cell
phone, called her boss and quit her job. Grinning, she made another call
to her hubs and told him of her new adventure (after making sure his heart was
beating properly again).
So began A. M. Hargrove's career as a YA/NA and Adult Romance writer.
Her books include the following: Edge of Disaster, Shattered Edge and Kissing
Fire (The Edge Series); The Guardians of Vesturon series (Survival,
Resurrection, Determinant, reEmergent and Beginnings); Dark Waltz and
Tragically Flawed.
Other than being in love with writing about being in love, she loves
chocolate, ice cream and coffee and is positive they should be added as part of
the USDA food groups.
