My choice this week is from prolific writer Jean Joachim and her book IF I LOVED YOU
Book Beginnings
Megan could hardly breathe. Her mouth, suddenly dry as
desert sand, managed a smile as her eyes connected with his. Instantly, she
understood Chaz Duncan’s enormous film success. His presence filled the room
the second he entered it.
Chaz stood about five foot eleven, with a slender build
and shoulders that stretched from New York to California. His expertly trimmed,
rakishly long, dark brown hair threatened to fall into his eyes at any moment.
His eyes were the darkest brown, fringed by long black lashes. His nose was
straight and just long enough. His lips were perfect, with a slightly fuller
lower lip that looked completely kissable.

“Not this one. Honestly. Meg has no idea how hot she is.
She wears these low cut sweaters to work and then bends over the desk in front
of me—and not on purpose, like she forgot what she’s wearing. Great rack. She
doesn’t even know she’s flashing me.”
“A hot babe who doesn’t know it? How do you find these
women, Chaz?”
“Dumb luck.”
“Does she have a friend?”
“What happened to Selena?”
“Didn’t work out.”
“Sorry. She was hot…a stick of fire.”
“Stick of dynamite is more like it. What a pain in the
ass. She was demanding and always needing attention…constantly. Geez.” He shook
his head.
“Meg’s independent. Maybe too independent.”

Does love always mean total truth?
Successfully shunning the limelight was one way for Megan Davis to keep her
family secret. A successful financial advisor, Meg was shocked when she was
selected to launch a celebrity division for her investment firm.
Gorgeous, magnetic movie star, Chaz Duncan,
wary of women who wanted to bask in his fame or sell his secrets to the media,
valued privacy above all else. Would he continue his high profile but lonely
existence to keep his secret safe? Jealousy, deceit and scandal threaten two
careers and the quest for true love and trust in this roller-coaster-ride
contemporary romance.
