SWEET SEXY SADIE
BY
CHRISTINE YOUNG
BLURB:
From
the first time Sadie’s eyes met those of Brody McKenna in the hot Sierra Madre
Mountains, theirs was a potent attraction—not gentle, slow, and easy, but hot,
hard, and all-consuming. The daughter of a dysfunctional family, Sadie had
dreams no man could wrench from her with hot sex and an all-consuming passion.
She’d challenge this alpha male with all the strength she possessed. But her
red hair, fiery temperament, and indomitable spirit obsessed Brody...and he
knew he had to find a way to show her he was more than he appeared and convince
her to make a life with him.
EXCERPT:
"I trust
you." For a second her voice fluttered then she felt reassured with her
words. "I do...trust."
"It's
about time, little one." Slayer's gravelly voice was filled with laughter.
"I don't
understand." She moved away from him, leaving a sliver of space. She saw
the simmering silver glow around him and wondered at the sight. "You are
different from them."
"In time
you will comprehend." He pointed toward the ranch. "See, we are
almost there. You will be safe and we will kill the demon for you."
Sadie closed
her eyes and recalled everything Slayer told her. She wanted facts and the whys
about things. Dealing in the abstract was not something she appreciated. In
time...
"So you
can see into the future?" Skeptical of his words, Sadie wanted to explore
them in depth.
Laughter
rumbled from his chest. "You are too inquisitive. Curiosity can get you
into deep trouble."
"I'll
walk the rest of the way." Sadie prodded him on the back with a finger.
The knot in her stomach had disappeared, but she wasn't sure about the swaying
horse. "No, I promised your man I would keep you safe. I mean to deliver
you to him personally. All of the anger you have pent up inside for me can best
be used in a positive way."
Sadie paused
a moment in thought. She wasn't angry. She wasn't sure how she felt. "You
have a name?"
"Angel."
Laughter
bubbled up inside. "You are the farthest from the image of an angel I have
ever had."
"The
name reflects my personality." He nickered to his horse. "My mount
believes me an angel every time I feed him and brush him down."
"Of
course he would."
"And do
you have a last name?" Curiosity drove her questions. She was sure she
heard him swallow hard and knew it wasn't something he wanted to reveal. Again
intrigue seemed to follow this man.
The pause was
long and vibrated with tension. "McKenna."
