~Excerpt~

If someone had told him two years earlier that he’d be on his honeymoon with the handsome construction foreman, he would have laughed his ass off. Everyone knew Cody loved women and women adored him, so they’d had been stunned when it became public knowledge that he and Sam were dating. Cody liked to say that their love went beyond rules, beyond any easy explanations. They were simply meant to be.

Without taking his eyes from the road, Cody reached out and grabbed his hand, running his thumb over Sam’s calloused palm. “Did you remember to pack the towels?”

“Yep. And the washcloths.”

“Good, I don’t want to have to dry myself off with those ridiculously expensive sheets of yours again.”

He clenched his teeth at the memory of finding his then-fiancé drying off with a fitted sheet after a hard day of working on their cabin together. “Those were thousand thread count Egyptian cotton sheets that I picked out just for our cabin!”

“A thousand threads, huh? Well they didn’t absorb water worth shit.” He stole a glance at him, barely hiding a smile. “And why do they gotta be Egyptian cotton? What’s wrong with American cotton?”

He closed his eyes and shook his head. Cody enjoyed making fun of the stereotype that all construction workers were ignorant rednecks, but he’d helped pick the sheets out. They’d spent hours together selecting just the right colors for the bedroom of their dream vacation home.

The truck hit a hole in the road and Sam’s head thumped against the window. “Ow!”

“Sorry ‘bout that,” Cody said and gave him a wink. “You just look so damned good. I can’t keep my eyes on the road.”

He snorted, but his heart warmed and he lifted their linked hands to his mouth, sucking on the tip of the Cody’s thumb. “Well we can’t have that. I’d hate to have our honeymoon end with a fiery crash down the side of the mountain. Yep, you really should pay attention to your driving.”

Cody shifted in the driver seat and tried to subtly adjust his bulge. “You’re not helping.”





Author Bio:

Ann is Queen of the Castle to her wonderful husband and three sons in the mountains of West Virginia. In her past lives she's been an Import Broker, a Communications Specialist, a US Navy Civilian Contractor, a Bartender/Waitress, and an actor at the Michigan Renaissance Festival. She also spent a summer touring with the Grateful Dead-though she will deny to her children that it ever happened.

From a young age she's been fascinated by myths and fairytales, and the romance that often was the center of the story. As Ann grew older and her hormones kicked in, she discovered trashy romance novels. Great at first, but she soon grew tired of the endless stories with a big wonderful emotional buildup to really short and crappy sex. Never a big fan of purple prose, throbbing spears of fleshy pleasure and wet honey pots make her giggle, she sought out books that gave the sex scenes in the story just as much detail and plot as everything else-without using cringe worthy euphemisms. This led her to the wonderful world of Erotic Romance, and she's never looked back.

Now Ann spends her days trying to tune out cartoons playing in the background to get into her 'sexy space' and has learned to type one handed while soothing a cranky baby.
