~ Excerpt ~
(Dina)
By the next day, Maggie seems
much better. After work I am relaxing in a bubble bath with my Jacuzzi tub jets
running when my phone rings. It is Ryder.
"Hey, misterman." I
answer.
"Hello, beautiful! It’s good to hear your voice after phone tag
yesterday. What are you doing this evening?"
Well, we are on the phone and I
am feeling brave so I answer in almost a whisper, "I am in the bath tub,
covered in nothing but bubbles, relaxing, thinking of how I wish it were you
covering me instead."
He is quiet for a moment. I think I hear a low
growl from him.
With his voice deeper than I have
ever heard before, "Damn, Dina you are killing me over here. Oh how I wish
I was there. I would be happy to wash your back for you."
I smile and add, "Just my back, huh, what
about my front?"
I hear him groan, "Oh baby,
you don't want to start something, you can't finish."
I stay quiet for just a brief
moment, "Ryder, I will be glad to start and finish anything with you,
anytime, anywhere. The question is am I what you really want?"
There I said it, now am I really ready for an
answer?
He then shocks me to my core with
his admission, "Dina, it’s been you and only you I have wanted since the
first night I met you at the restaurant. Since the night we found you at the
bottom of the stairs, when I beat the shit out of that bastard, I haven't been
with anyone. I have been waiting for you to get over that situation and feel
comfortable and safe again."
He pauses and sighs, but continues,
"Dina, you are one of a kind special. I am far from a perfect man, I am
not even a good man, but for you and because of you I want to be. I have
treated women wrong in the past; I have used them, lead them on, and dumped
them in some harsh ways. I have never laid a hand on a woman, but I have left
some completely and unintentionally broken, and for that I am sorry. I don't want to lead you on or treat you
wrong. I want to be your safe place, Dina. I never want to see you sad, or
hurt. I want to hold you close and call you mine in all ways for always. Baby,
I have messed up big time in my past and I am paying for it even now. I don't
deserve someone as strong and beautiful as you. I have tried to stay away from
you, but you just draw me in. When you look at me, I feel like you can see the
potential and goodness inside me. One kiss from you, is enough to make me weak
in the knees. Dina, I want to see what we can make of the electricity between
us.”
He sighs, “I wish I was there, I
didn't want to do this by phone."
I take a moment because I don't
know what to say. Finally, I stammer through, "Ryder, you mean so much to
me. You saved me when I was at my lowest. I want to see what we can make of us.
I won't lie, I am scared, but I trust you with my insecurities. I trust you
with every part of me. My body craves your touch, Ryder; my mind craves your
conversation, and my heart craves your safety. I trust you, Ryder, to help
restore me."
I hear a voice in the background,
then Ryder says, "Oh baby you have just made the whole situation here so
much better. I would love nothing more than to tell you exactly how I would
wash every inch of your body, but I have to go, I am needed. I will call you
tomorrow. I will see you as soon as I can get back home and we will make this
work, Goodnight, my sunshine." Before I can respond, he is gone.

~ About the Author ~
Chelsea Camaron was born and
raised in Coastal North Carolina. She currently resides in Southern Louisiana
with her husband and two children but her heart is always Carolina day
dreaming. Chelsea always wanted to be a writer, but like most of us, let fear
of the unknown grab a hold of her dream; she realized that if she was going to
tell her daughter to go for her dreams, that it was time to follow her own
advice. Chelsea grew up turning wrenches alongside her father, and from that
grew her love for old muscle cars and Harley Davidson motorcycles, which just
so happened to inspired her ‘Daddy’s Girls’ series. Her love for reading has
sparked a new love for writing and she currently has a few more projects in the
works. When she is not spending her days writing you can find her playing with
her kids, attending car shows, going on motorcycle rides on the back of her
husband’s Harley, snuggling down with her new favorite book or watching any
movie that Vin Diesel might happen to be in. She hates being serious and is
still a big kid at heart. She is a small town country girl enjoying life and,
Chelsea hopes that her readers remember not to take life too seriously and to
embrace your inner five year old, because five year olds know how to enjoy the
simple things in life and how to always have fun.
