Deep Focus. Erin McCarthy

      

      Her rebound resolution

      This is so not the romantic vacation she planned! Instead of a let’s-rekindle-this-relationship getaway, PR rep Melanie Ambrose is en route to Cancún with a Dear Jane letter and Hunter Ryan, her smoking-hot new bodyguard. To make matters worse, there’s only one available room at the hotel she booked...with one bed!

      The truth is, Melanie has been so career-focused that she’s ignored what she wants. And faced with sun, sand and an incredibly sexy companion, a deliciously hot and naughty fling seems the exact thing to help her reset her focus. But as the days pass, Melanie wants to change their arrangement so this doesn’t end when they get back on the plane...

      “Are you saying you don’t find me physically attractive?”

      “I find you physically attractive.” Hunter’s comment was an understatement. Melanie was actually his ideal woman, the kind of woman he wanted to both protect from harm and push up against a wall and make scream with pleasure. But telling her that would be completely unprofessional. He was still on a job. “You’re a beautiful woman.”

      She sighed again. “I don’t feel beautiful. I feel foolish. And a little airsick.”

      “Here. Lie down and close your eyes.” Hunter patted his legs, indicating she should stretch out.

      He was attracted to her, yes, but he also felt...interest. That tug of desire, in both his groin and his chest. Not good. Not good at all.

      Which made offering for her to sprawl across his lap incredibly stupid.

      She glanced up at him with big brown eyes. “You’re very hard.”

      “Excuse me?” He was working on it, but not there yet. If she kept shifting around like that, he would be, though, and she would get an earful.

      “Your legs. They’re very muscular. Not the best pillow.”

      Right.

      She smiled up at him. “But thank you. I appreciate it.” Squeezing his knee she added, “You’re very sweet.”

      Now, that was a word no one had ever used to describe him.

      And with that, his job got a whole hell of a lot harder.

Dear Reader,

      As a Northern girl, my favorite thing to do in the winter is to escape it. Unlike those who revel in skiing and ice-skating, I spend the winter running from building to car to my house wearing seven layers of fleece. Aside from not moving because of family, I swear half the reason I continue to live in the North is for the excuse to head to Mexico every chance I get!

      So my heroine, Melanie’s, desire to experience the triple play of sun, sand and sexy times was easy to channel. While I’ve never had a hot bodyguard like Hunter accompany me on vacation, I did once lose sleep in Cancún due to a couple of amorous dolphins right outside my room. Sometimes truth is stranger—or funnier—than fiction!

      I hope you’ll enjoy this final installment of my From Every Angle trilogy with an unlikely pair forced together and finding love.

      Happy reading,

      Erin McCarthy
