      Was it a just a kiss?

      Jamie wasn’t sure because it felt more like their mouths had just had hot, sweaty sex.

      “Wow.” Daisy sat back, touching her lips, her eyes wide in disbelief.

      “Between here and there, you need to decide if you want me to come up.”

      “I do?”

      “Yes.”

      They walked out the door, greeted by the cool Chicago evening. Daisy paused beside the bike, looking up at him with an intoxicating mixture of wonder and wantonness. “What will happen if you come up?”

      He leaned down and kissed her softly, exhibiting way more control than he had any right to show. “Dessert.”

      “Oh. Well, there’s lots of that. Pie, chocolate torte, lemon meringue. What would you like?”

      “You.”

Dear Reader,

      I love contradictions. Things like opposites attract, cheering for the underdog, wanting to get down and dirty in a boxing ring...hmm, is that a contradiction or a scene from the book?

      Either way, when I pitched a story about a bakery and a boxing club, I wasn’t sure it was going to fly. But it did—I guess boxing and baking do mix—and Sweet Seduction was born. The story features the lovely Daisy and the hotter-than-hell Jamie, a lawyer and private boxing club owner who thinks Daisy is even tastier than her delicious baked goods, which he adores in a finger-licking, groaning sort of orgasmic way.

      While that might not be my exact experience with baking, it’s pretty damn close. My favorite thing is the cinnamon bun—thanks to my mom who makes the best cinnamon buns ever. To this day, the smell of warm, fresh bread slathered in butter, cinnamon and brown sugar gooeyness is synonymous with comfort and home, just as it is for Daisy.

      As for the boxing? Besides the fact that ripped, shirtless guys duking it out is hot, growing up with three older brothers and a mother who only knows one haircut—a boy cut (aka pixie cut)—meant that when I tagged along to boxing practice with my brothers, their coaches asked why their “little brother” didn’t join in. So I did.

      I hope you enjoy Sweet Seduction and stay tuned for the second book in the series, Big Sky Seduction, featuring Daisy’s best friend Gloria.

      Happy reading!
