Title: Their No-Strings Affair
Author: Charlotte O’Shay
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Book Blurb
Honey packs everything she owns and heads to NYC to jumpstart her art career. Her cheating boyfriend is history, and she finally acknowledges the truth of her mother's. Careers are forever and happily ever after isn't in their DNA. All she needs is a job and a place to live. What she doesn't need is a taciturn, sexy, ballbuster but she's woman enough to know the difference between need and want. Isn't she?
Jake's childhood was marred by tragedy and his future hijacked to a promise born of guilt. His failure drove him to a career as a SEAL and a security expert. But it's not enough. Now he'll give up his freedom in reparation for the life he lost.
Honey may be the last sweet stop on the road to a dismal future. If it's what they both want, where's the harm in a no-strings affair?
Excerpt
Honey takes a good hard look at the seriously uptight guy who’s taunting her temper to full boil. A square is what her artist’s eye sees. Square jaw, square shoulders, and square hands with clean, but work roughened square fingernails. He’s already showcased his square personality. Paired with square aura is gloss. Glossy teeth, lustrously glossy black hair, and so-shiny-you-can-see-your-face-in-them, glossy shoes.
His black tuxedo matches his ruthlessly tamed hair and hugs the defined muscles of his shoulders and thighs in a way that sends a sharp flare of heat to her belly. She squashes the stab of awareness.
She can appreciate, as an artist, his exceptional body—he has to be a swimmer with those massive shoulders and lean hips—without feeling…what is she feeling anyway? C’mon girl you cannot be attracted. This guy has threat written all over him. And she’s not going there. Honey has turned out to be the world’s worst at judging a guy’s intentions or character…
Besides any random guy would look decent in clothes tailored just for him. And this guy’s close-fitting bespoke tuxedo has as much in common with the off the rack, black suits some of the staff is wearing tonight as the caviar towers inside the ballroom have in common with canned tuna on crackers.
Honey shuts down her wayward thoughts. So what if his perfectly molded lips, currently curled into a sneer, bear an uncanny resemblance to those of Michelangelo's David? It’s no big deal he’s looking down his classic aquiline nose at her.
