And now for today's Sunday Smooch from Never Say No To A Caffarelli by Melanie Milburne ........
Poppy
Silverton is as untouched as the leafy English village where she runs a
tearoom. But her home, her livelihood and
her innocence are under threat…
Rafe
Caffarelli is a mouthwatering specimen of Mediterranean manhood. He’s a playboy 
billionaire and determined to buy Poppy’s historic dower house.
Poppy
will not give up the only thing that
remains of her childhood and family. She’ll fight Rafe—and her attraction to
him—all the way. And be the first woman to say “no” to a Caffarelli!
He
held her gaze for a long throbbing moment. ‘I meant what I said about the rent.
I don’t intend to make any changes to the arrangements you made with John
Underwood.’
She
flashed him another caustic glare. ‘Am I supposed to thank you or kiss your
feet? Prostrate myself before you? Go on, lay one finger on me and see what
happens. I dare you— Ommph!’
His
hands had grasped her upper arms so quickly she didn’t have time to do much
more than snatch a quick breath before his mouth came down on hers.
It
was a hard, possessive kiss, a hot fizzing pressure against her lips that made
them tingle as if high-voltage electricity was passing directly from his body
to hers.
Poppy
had intended to fight him, but somehow as soon as his mouth connected with hers
her lips softened and became totally pliant, melting beneath the fiery purpose
of his. She opened to his command and tasted the full potent heat of him, the
bold thrust of his tongue going in search of hers with erotic intent. He
explored every corner of her mouth with spine-tingling thoroughness, leaving
her breathless and barely able to stand upright.
But
even more mortyifying, she gave a soft
little whimper of approval just before he broke the connection.
It
was of some slight consolation to her that he looked just as shocked as she
felt. His eyes were almost black and a frown had appeared between his eyebrows
as he dropped his hands from her upper arms and took an unsteady step back from
her.
Poppy
tried to think of something witty or poithy to say but her mouth was still
hanging open in stupefaction.
He
inclined his head in a formal nod, his expression now unfathomable. ‘Thank you
for the tea lesson. It was very…’ He paused over the choice of a word.
‘Entertaining.’
Poppy
let out her breath in a flustered rush once he had gone. She knew the battle
was far from over.
It was just beginning.
To go into the draw to win a signed
copy of Never Say No To A
Caffarelli as well as Book Two- Never
Underestimate A Caffarelli leave a comment to this question ......
What
is the one thing you would do anything to fight for or keep in your possession?
And—just for Poppy’s benefit—do you prefer coffee or tea?
Come back next Sunday, when the winner of today's giveaway will be announced -- and another smooch will be posted!
