Her sharp inhale the only sound for a few seconds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In the doorway stood the most stunning man she\u2019d ever laid eyes on.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Never again would she roll her eyes at the mention of the word &#8220;breathtaking.&#8221;<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>His penetrating blue gaze took her in. Didn&#8217;t just look at her eyes, but dove into them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He stood about six foot three, but it was not his height alone that made him impressive. It was the massive expanse of his shoulders, the broad muscular chest, thick-corded neck and square jawline. It took a moment to realize they both stood staring at one another without speaking.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He didn\u2019t seem discomfited at her silence, but stood like a statue. If not for the barely noticeable lifting and lowering of his chest she\u2019d think him not real.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Long lashed grey blue eyes met hers. They darkened to a deeper blue and his nostrils flared just enough to let her know he was attracted. Tesha flushed under the intense scrutiny, and the raw attraction she felt instantly. The haze in her mind somewhat lifted and she held her right hand out to him.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cHello. I\u2019m Tesha Washington. Your new neighbor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The eyes moved slowly from her face down to her chest and finally to her outstretched hand. His much larger hand swallowed hers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cAdam Ford.\u201d At the touch, her lips parted, but she recovered enough not to gasp again like a Jane Austen character, and shake his hand. When he did not release it, she pulled free of his loose grip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Once again she remained standing, her brain failing to engage and remember what she\u2019d come over for.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Maybe later it would seem odd that she\u2019d not felt any compulsion to escape, to put distance between them like she\u2019d done with every man who looked at her with even remote interest.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Since David&#8217;s death, any man&#8217;s attention caused her guilt or awkward discomfort. The reason things didn&#8217;t work out with Cleve. But not this man.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A wonderful aroma of oregano, tomato, and garlic tickled her nose and Tesha sniffed the air. \u201cSomething smells amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Adam looked over his shoulder into the house. It was then she noticed a kitchen towel draped across it.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cI\u2019m cooking.\u201d His eyes slanted to the floor and then up to her. Surely it was not meant as flirtation, but the sweep of his lashes made her stomach flip. He cooked?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>His throat moved when he swallowed and cleared it. Each one of the handsome man\u2019s movements sensual, without meaning to be. Tesha could barely drag her eyes from his throat to meet his gaze.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cI\u2019m sorry I didn\u2019t mean to interrupt whatever you\u2019re doing.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I can come back another time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Once again he remained silent, his face stoic except for what she translated as interest when his gaze roamed from her eyes to her lips.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>He took an awkward step back. \u201cPlease, come in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">When he turned to walk, her eyes popped wide at his perfectly formed behind.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Now that was what she called booty. Her mouth practically watered wondering what it would feel<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">like to have that under her palms. He wore loose sweatpants that hung low on his narrow hips, the worn fabric leaving very little to the imagination. When her mind went there, Tesha secretly thanked God he could not see her reaction to his tush. Ashamed at her thoughts, she rubbed a hand over her cheeks and dragged her eyes away to take in the interior of the house.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4400\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/havecoffeeneedbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/Blog-Separater-Rawr.jpg?resize=400%2C98&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Blog-Separater-Rawr\" width=\"400\" height=\"98\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #d00f5e;\">Meet Hildie McQueen:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Amazon bestselling author Hildie McQueen loves action, love and unusual settings.
