Blurb:
Nicky and Liam have only twenty four short
hours to find out if their instantaneous attraction can develop into something
more than an electric mile-high fumble. San Francisco has everything they need
to put their previous disastrous relationships behind them but when they lose
touch with each other almost immediately, fate seems to have other ideas. As
the precious hours tick away, Liam moves heaven and earth to find the woman of
his (filthiest) dreams before she leaves the city. Will he get to her in time? #erotica

| One Night in San Francisco |
‘That feels just amazing,’ he whispered, ‘but I really can’t. I’m sorry – I can tell you’re something of an expert in your field.’
I giggled. ‘I’ll take that as a compliment;
not that I go around rummaging under men’s blankets on a regular basis, you
understand.’
‘Of course not. Look, I’m in San Fran for a
week – I’ll give you my card and you must call me if you’re staying long enough
for a meet up? I’m free tonight, if you’d like dinner, maybe?’
‘That’d be nice – I’m only here for one
night though. I’m on my way to stay with my brother in Southern California
tomorrow evening, but I’ve never seen the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, or the
cable cars so I decided to stop off in San Francisco on the way and be a
tourist for twenty four hours.’
‘Good place to have a brother.’
‘I know – he’s an actor. He lives somewhere
in the hills in a huge house called Coast Starlight. He did tell me why he
named it, but I can’t remember. Something sentimental, I’m sure – he’s a big
softie.
‘It was a nice idea to have a pit stop in
the City first.’
‘Jack paid for it – this is his treat. He’s
doing really well these days. I’d never have afforded it otherwise. I’ve
brought him some great presents though to remind him of home. Marmite, a
novelty big red bus moneybox, that sort of thing.’
‘Sounds great. Well, I’d love to see you
later if you’ve got time? Will you ring me?’
I dimpled at him. ‘Might do. But you don’t
even know my name. And more to the point, I don’t know yours.’
He grinned back and reached for my hand,
turning it over and kissing the back of it so lightly that I’d have thought I’d
imagined it if my whole body hadn’t begun to throb with pleasure at the touch
of his lips. He began to work on my fingers, taking each in his mouth by turn
and sucking gently until I was almost at the combustion point again.
‘You really are a find,’ he said.
‘A what?’
‘A find. A lovely woman, easy in her own
skin, sensual and ready for anything. I bet if I lifted you across my knee now
and lowered you onto my cock, you’d come in seconds.’
‘Hmmm. Well, I’d like to answer that one,
but it’s a long story.’ We were still whispering, but I noticed one or two
nearby people starting to stir and look around to see who was disturbing the
peace. ‘Are you going to give me your phone number then, or what?’ I murmured,
mind agonizingly full of the images he’d put there. I took the outstretched
card he offered after a brief rummage in his pockets, and tucked it away in my
bag.
‘Oh, and I’m Liam,’ he said, as an
afterthought, ‘I’m a literary agent. I specialize in crime thrillers.’
‘Hi Liam. I’m Nicky. I’m thirty two, I guess
I specialize in crime too – I’m a solicitor.’ He laughed and squeezed my hand,
keeping hold of it and linking his fingers in mine. Settling down, we leaned
together like old friends, and soon both drifted into sleep.

When they fall aslepp. have thehy already connected after he gave her his phone number? As a new scene which is later? I was a bit confused. Your dialogue soars with sensuality and anticipation. I can't wait to read if he does what he suggested. I love this line she says in the begionning: "not that I go around rummaging under men’s blankets on a regular basis..." I have a definite sense of watching and listening to their conversation and reactions, like I'm there with them.
